6 years on a message board.
 

kind of a long time, no?

Sept 2001 - Sept 2007. weird for sure. i know i don't post much anymore, but i still read GFY when i have time (mostly on my blackberry these days). this place has changed so much, it's hard to believe really.

playboy made a good choice.

ok, the concorde is leaving, have to go :glugglug

There have been times where I don't come here for a few months and the whole set of people has changed.

It's DEFINITELY not the same as when Tanker and Wizzo worked there, back when GFY started.

It's hard to keep up with the real people, the slackers, the trolls, and the fake nicks anymore. But I try.

I miss reading you and Pro, and I'll always miss [Labret] I forget, was it you that was making 2 mil a year? or was that Pro? See.. It's hard to keep track of the old crowd anymore.

i took two years away from daily message board posting (whoring) around here. had to take time away and get my life together.

gfy definitely changed since i came back.

the old days are gone, but some of us are still around.

Is your life together? What has changed about you?

Two years ago my grandmother passed away. I left home and did not ever see my family much in the 10 years I lived in Porn Valley, California. It really fucked me up and made me think about where I was in life more, where I was going, and what I needed to do.

Much has changed about me. I no longer eat meat, am way more healthy and take care of myself, I do not drink every day the way I used to, i try not to be negative about anything anymore.... i could go on and on.

I sold or gave away belongings and moved out of LA. Moved back to my hometown to spend much needed time with my family, got married before I left, buying a house now etc...

much has changed since the "Fletch living in apartment in the valley hanging with coked up porn sluts and rockers every day."

I am a much more positive person and make better decisions. When I was drunk every day I let myself run wild for a very long time. I partied every day and LA lifestyle put 20 years on my body.

im not even sure why im posting all this.... just take my word for it, I am not the same old Fletch. I think im a much better person now.

I read a book one time that said man will never be successful until he finds his purpose in life, without going into it, I now have that purpose, and actually want to live more than die these days if that makes any sense.

Is my life together? Much more than it was... i walked the edge for more than a decade with not caring about taxes, life, nothing... so yes, its on its way to being MUCh more together than it was.

been a long time over here indeed...

Good to hear. :) :thumbsup

This is actually a very inspiring post.

How long do you intend to be here? Well, forever's not a long time. :)

salute...

:thumbsup:thumbsup Nice

I am still looking for my "purpose" :disgust:disgust

Yeah, I've been here 4 years now, and even I can't believe how much this board has changed.

I enjoyed reading your post too Fletch. I still don't have a porpouse in life, but I guess I'm too young to be thinking about that actually (I'm only 24).

"concorde"

</chuckle> :winkwink:

Indeed it has been a very long time... :) Ahh I remember the OLD days on GFY they were the best....

such a legend! u'r the man! :winkwink:

indeed it is, good for you Fletch :thumbsup

I've been reading GFY for seven years also. I didn't set up my account until January 2002. I should have set up an account when I started reading. It took me a while to set up the account because I was always worried I'd get ripped on or say something stupid. I think I studied the board for a year before I started posting. lol

It has changed a lot the last 7 years.

I was on here in 02 also, and remember exactly what you are talking about. People have calmed down a bit or the people that treated everyone like shit got out of the business.

happy anniversary.

i remember quiet posting ibill stats a long time ago and seeing what was possible in this industry.

I still have not yet found my true purpose in life(internally).
Grats brother.

great post Fletch. cheers :glugglug

I used to use those screenshots as motivational tools :)
WG

I remember the 4S thread too, putting my order in for a GT3 very soon :winkwink:

me new here but this was gr8 to hear........

So then it was him. I guess I was getting him and Pr0 mixed up. (I dunno why, same reason I got Sleazy and Juicy mixed up for years I guess)

psst just saying HI:)

hooo cool man, i have never been so long on one board ... maybe gfy will be the break! :thumbsup keep up your good board work! ;)

Thats why i love GFY although ever evolving there is always a core few who will always keep it going, there is alot of loyalty to this community.

I laugh at this place daily, you couldnt find the amount of personalities as on here with all other boards combined.

cheers to all old school guys here :glugglug

Things started going down the drain when Serge left...I really miss the GBU !

Serge never leaves. He's probably already spammed this thread and nobody knows it. :1orglaugh

agree with ya'll

No doubt GFY has changed a lot over the years. But then,so has the adult business.

A long time indeed.

no doubt.

Congrats on the anniversary, you got me beat by a few months :)

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thum bsup

hehe, yeah people have changed quite a bit on here. What happened to guys like Amp and Labret? I'm sure there are more people but I forget who they are.

congratulations!!!!! wow 6 years......... your an icon.........
