I would post much more then. But got tired of the BS

JenniDahling 03-06-2008 10:07 PM

I look at gfy as the courtyard of Adult Webmaster High... there is a reason to be seen and to see what's going on, but the real deal goes down off the boards and the fortune is in the followup. That being said, the troll population is a bit scary.

you are sending subliminal love messages to me aren't you... :winkwink:

halfpint 03-06-2008 10:24 PM

I have learned a lot by just reading some of the posts you guys post on this board and I have also made some money from here, Its would be a disaster for us noobs If all the old webmasters stoped posting on here, as you are the guys with all the knowledge and being a newbie it all helps to read the views and experiences that you guys have had over the years.

Nicky 03-06-2008 10:29 PM

I'm liking this thread more and more, it has something old school over it :)

TMM_John 03-06-2008 10:37 PM

I don't think it is an age issue. Most of us were young when we got started in this business. I don't think it's a "newbie" issue. We were all new once and this industry does need a flow of new ideas and people. I don't even think it is so much a "maturity" issue. Many of the successful people in this biz lack maturity in some sense of the word. (And that keeps it fun at times)

I think the problem this board has is the number of people here who aren't even in the industry and/or they don't take it seriously and treat it as a business.

If you need drama I think I have some I can loan you.

CuriousToyBoy 03-06-2008 11:00 PM

Either Wizzo gets his way or I am taking my bat and ball and going home ......

;-)

crockett 03-06-2008 11:07 PM

I'd love to see that.. I'm up for fucking around and having a laugh, but the amount of useless contest tards on this board is getting old.

This board would likely improve 10 fold if they just got rid of the fucking contests. That would be a wonderful fucking start.

I still can't believe that to this day sponsors haven't figured out the contest are a fucking joke full of leaches that couldn't send a sale if their life depended on it.

emthree 03-06-2008 11:08 PM

I went from visiting GFY 50 times daily to once a week.

esnem 03-06-2008 11:13 PM

contests not only make the board look like a spammed inbox, they attract idiots as well.

candyflip 03-06-2008 11:18 PM

If we keep saying that it won't ever happen, maybe it will do the opposite.

Lately, that's how it seems to go here.

CarlosTheGaucho 03-06-2008 11:35 PM

Well, I suppose I did my time but I am far from beeing old school enough to talk about this, but in all modesty, I guess I try to CONTRIBUTE somehow when it's about a topic I have a feeling I can contribute to, I guess that's the key..

You may want to put a troll in and wait for a response, a feel of a virtual excitement, but you can as well do that on boards you belong to..

I have to agree. You probably recall the days of Content Lotto. One of the best things about it was besides being fun, it targeted webmasters. I know our advertisers appreciated that.

This is 100% true.

Despite being out of adult for 3 years now, I do remember the day I scored my very first sale with DrunkSluts. Cheers Wizzo.

NinjaSteve 03-07-2008 01:07 AM

I nominate you, Wizzo, to get things rollin'

Many times now it seems like its watching Mike Tyson fighting a handicapped kid, but I really think many of the newer generation of webmasters can benefit from the experience of some of us that have been around from early days.

I know this might be a futile effort, but I think that there's still enough webmasters and guys making money in this biz that we could make this place, somewhere that could be of more benefit to all of us...

So any other ADULT webmasters interested in bringing it back?

Gosh, this is a webmaster board. Who would have thunk it?

MikeSmoke 03-07-2008 02:42 AM

Of course, I agree with Wizzo, BUT...

the problem is that despite what people say, *almost everyone* does at least check out GFY once or twice a day - so it remains the best place to find someone or something quickly.......AND it also remains the place where the contest whores and sig whores and kiddies are alllowed (or encouraged) to come and play.

It's very tough to serve two masters, no matter how many people try to change things....especially if page views are the name of the game.

Big_D 03-07-2008 02:48 AM

Agreed wizzo, i do find a lot of useful info here, but the drama outweighs it all. Well put. I wasn't here in the beginning, but in the 2 years I have been here ive seen a lot of change.

Dennis69 03-07-2008 03:24 AM

Back in the day GFY use to be full of little gold nuggets posted all over the place... now most of the posts are just blops of shit :disgust

WebCashMaker 03-07-2008 03:43 AM

I am interested.

Some of the 'grown ups' need to post more for that to happen.

But if you post more, you get criticized for having a postcount.

Catch 22.
Conclusion: people are stupid.

And the vortex that is GFY continues...

Wizzo 03-07-2008 06:05 AM

I think this shows there's some hope left in this board... :pimp

justsexxx 03-07-2008 06:12 AM

This board sucks more and more. But the owners don't care, so not much we can do about it. It would help when they wouldn't allow those contest threads, and the sigs online 1 line or so without pictures. They would also remove the sig guys postiing for 1 cent a post

crockett 03-07-2008 06:37 AM

What is worse is there is a contest running right now, that is paying these fucking twit post whores .50 cents a post. I mean WTF if they want to post up there that long, just pay for a fucking sticky and quit annoying the rest of us by feeding fucking post whores.

Jman 03-07-2008 06:48 AM

Seems to me management as lost interest in posting and doing cool stuff with their board. Kind of like it's big enough, we get the traffic and advertisers so why bother.

For GFY to be cool like it was back in the day would require a major clean up. Eliminate sig whores trolls, eliminate idiots that are just here to argue and piss off people and also eliminate the gazillions contest.

How about GFY makes a contest once in a while to give back to the community that as been making the posts and getting the traffic so they can bank on advertisers.

When was the last time GFY did a contest???

Jet - BANNED FOR LIFE 03-07-2008 06:48 AM

why dont you go start your own board?

then you can have all the bro circle jerk you want.

Doctor Dre 03-07-2008 06:54 AM

Some of the bigger compagnies have been caught doing a lot of naughty things, and it's really hard to respect them when you know they are full of shit.

Some guys have made fortunes out of here, and now they are fucking everybody in the ass.

Holy shit, you're really a fucking noob retard talking out of your ass ugh ?

PussyCash is Commited to $100 for EVERY ImLive sign-up in March ( 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 ... Last Page) adamneve 6,204 posts 6,205 views


That's ridiculous, does anybody actually believe that us webmasters enjoy or approve of this shit. Don't just speak up against the board, these guys running these contests are just as responsible.

Pussycash, thanks for showing me/us that you think we are all fucking retards.

Jdoughs 03-07-2008 07:14 AM

Maybe there should be a thread listing the companies who spam this board with contests, we can list some business contact numbers for them, and get this started now.

How many calls would it take in a day to show them real webmasters are sick of this shit.

sumphatpimp 03-07-2008 07:16 AM

another shit post. adult.com should make you pay for the bandwidth this post consumes. that would cut down on the shit posts and sig whores.
but that would hurt page views and the advertising bottom line for gfy.
maybe you just shouldn't post such shit to begin with?
why bitch about what you are doing yourself?
if you guys had to pay for the bandwidth your posts consume do you think the board would be any different?
huh?

scottybuzz 03-07-2008 07:44 AM

but when real webmasters like will76 try and out people for doing bad things about 50 "bros" come and attack him, simply because he attacked the cheif bro, you call that grown up?
How can anything function with that type of mafia based society?

Excellent thread Wizzo ? has a fresh breath of business air about it.

Yes, I would love to see things improved around here.

I really like tony404's idea of having a pay forum for doing REAL business ? no contests, no sig whores, limited bs (as you could never completely eliminate all bs).

I am curious to know how many people would actually put their money where their GFY is and pay for a beneficial forum? 100% - I would. Maybe we should run a contest about what to name the forum (kidding!!).

In all seriousness, I've been running sites since 1995 and firmly agree that old school is the best school. However, there is always room for improvement and growth both in the old and new alike.

I wonder if we webmasters and program owners could ever really take GFY back...
