Bitching on GFY, gets you a quicker support response? - GoFuckYourself.com

Big_Red · 01-30-2007, 08:13 PM

Seems to be the standard protocol now. People come on GFY, bitch, say the system, program, yada yada, suckes. I thought we were suppose to go to the actual site, say, CCbill, or Epassporte, etc etc............and get support there. Or maybe I was clued in wrong about this one? Shouldnt we contact support first? Or do we run straight to GFY and spill da beans?

So is GFY the new all around get your shit fixed in a hurry place or what?

Let the flames and crybaby posts begin.

its more like blackmail if you ask me. or whatever the fuck you wanna call it.

madawgz · 01-30-2007, 08:22 PM

if its drama, and gets lots of replies supporting you, odds are youll get your problem fixed

woj · 01-30-2007, 08:25 PM

actually, the official term for this is "gfy court"...

Example usage:
"If you don't pay me by monday, I'll take you to gfy court"

I believe so too. Also, I'm guessing in the best world the guy would have tried to contact said service's support before bitching.

cj_purve · 01-30-2007, 08:44 PM

its funny when it backfires ...

like that dude who posted his whole conversation with anywebcam.com support a few weeks ago ... but 2 pages worth of responses thought he was a knob and anywebcam handled him better than they should have LOL

he-fox · 01-30-2007, 08:46 PM

definitely.

missed that one. but that had to hurt.

pussyluver · 01-30-2007, 09:58 PM

I try email and ICQ first and if I don't get a response then to GFY. Sad but true, for many GFY is the way. Then there are some that don't even respond to your GFY post. There are tons of sponsors out there!!!! One doesn't want to be responsive another will fill the void. The traffic goes to the winner. Not a whale, so sometimes it is hard to get attention. point is fish turn into whales and several hundred fish = a whale.

GAMEFINEST · 01-30-2007, 11:25 PM

gfy is the hot spot

swami · 01-30-2007, 11:49 PM

I love gfy for this very reason.Support is all to much lacking from sponsors.They are always away on holidays or sick or some bs story as why you never got a answer.
Then post a thread on gfy and surprise ,surprise, support is ready to help.
Maybe sponsors should do away with their support and let us just contact them via a gfy thread.

96ukssob · 01-30-2007, 11:53 PM

it works because instead of an email they can blow off, you are calling them out infront of 1000's of webmasters so they want to reslove the issue to not give themselves a bad name

Sly · 01-30-2007, 11:56 PM

GFY keeps people on their toes. Its a "check and balance" of sorts. I don't mind it at all. I'm always skimming the board for people that may be having troubles for whatever reason.

Fizzgig · 01-31-2007, 01:44 AM

It should be a last resort.

baddog · 01-31-2007, 03:38 AM

A last resort, but very effective.
