    Idea to make GFY more business oriented [ idea ]

    make a small prize for the best business thread of the day (or week?) as it was the case a few years ago

    prizes could be sponsored by a sponsor, so that it doesn't cost Playboy anything

    this will encourage some people to fight for the daily prize, so overall much more business threads will be started
    I don't use ICQ anymore.

    I think there are plenty of business-related threads; what you really want to do is lower the bullshit:business ratio.

    It might need a little tweaking...

      All business? That doesn't sound like any fun.

        That's a great idea, it will create an informative archive that we can refer to by simply searching ............. never mind.

          Or your could always charge like some of the mainstream sites do.

          That would eliminate a lot of it.
          Should You Email Your Members?

            I won one of those "best thread of the week" thing and never got my prize.

            I'm just a newbie.

                  We need new boards for "Would you hit it" threads... and the mods have to be more aggressive about moving "for sale" threads to their right places.

                        What, you want all the postwhores to get bored and leave? The pageviews would drop and so would advertising revenue.

                            I think we should be able to block certain people from posting in our threads.
                            I lot of business threads get hi-jacked with some off-the-wall BS until it's no longer a biz thread.

                                I till think there should be a 'members' forum...
                                I'd happilly pay a fee to be able to accsess a more biz related area... But I do kinda like the bullshit as well...
                                At the moment, GFY is like a place where you can come and play and let of steam after working...
                                Nothing wrong really, but I would happilly pay a fee of $15 a month, or $120 a year for a seperate biz section...


                                Oh yeah, PS

                                      E-mailed Loren and was told they go out in batches. That was a long time ago. Guess no batches have went out.

                                                I know i would subscribe. Or hey, split the board into two sections, a free bullshit section and a paid webmasters section... everyone happy!

                                                          there is a secret business only forum on here, but it is by invite only.

                                                                Dont feel bad. they owe me about 300$ from way back with the sig sales.

                                                                Now she is gone, I guess the money is as well.
