Remember when GFY...
 

Had 100 threads on the front page and the oldest thread was like 2 hours old?

Yeah.
I also remember when there were many many more posters and you knew almost all of them because it was a business board. Now there are too many pretenders and surfers.

2012 is gonna be even greater

Yep it's slowed down, but was always gonna happen anyway.

I think if a few of the fucktards got wiped off the board altogether, it would pick up again though.

Scrolling through the first 3 pages today, you see the same fucking clowns making idiot threads, and getting the views.

Get them to fuck, and we can start to be serious again...

OK, a serious bump for this thread:winkwink:

no I dint remember that stupid bullshit memory

The board has indeed slowed down a lot (mostly the last 3 months)

I'd put my nostalgia to better use ...

we miss nofx

People are too busy actually working these days.

i like when people copy and paste ;)

I'm still really new in the grand scheme of things, but I've definitely noticed a drop in quality posts over the past 3 months. Primarily by people who have been around for awhile, though. The B-team.

I do remember those days! WOJ and all of the contest threads and winning 50$ at post 50, 150, 200 and all of the post whores you could imagine coming in droves! :thumbsup

I can't even remember what I had for dinner last night let alone GFY

Indeed. While there is still some strong business to be had here, GFY's demographic / dynamic has seemingly shifted to a larger percentage of hobbyists, part timer's and surfers versus one of predominantly business oriented individuals that were once the majority here.

Having said that, I still do business here pretty regularly. You still need to sift through the mountains of non-business oriented threads to find anything business related amongst the clutter. Same ol', same ol' ;)

Yeah, it as fast as the Wall Street ticker, now it runs in slo mo :\

It was fastpaced big fun business on GFY those days...

Lensman, Aaron, Wizzo, nofx, SexEd, Labret, Redshoes etc etc

I miss the photoshopping contests...

The only way GFY will go back to that pace is if it starts paying 5 cents per post.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

The good old days.

:(

I agree, time for some house cleaning and maybe not pushing the real industry people away.

that idea has been tested :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I do :pimp

Yes, before smartphones.

Everything dies.

Everyone with half a personality got banned, now they don't care enough to come back. The edge was lost. Mostly whiny babies are left.

You're right... so here we are then, you and me, whining on page 2.

i remember, and i am feeling so old now

I wonder if your last remaining affiliate will be around in 2012 or not.

Yep, about ten years ago...

my grandpappy used tell me bout them good ol days way back yonder of them good ol gfy days back when the dinosaurs roamed the earth and cavemen clubbed their wifes and drug them back to caves.

Just as I see former thieves such as yourself still hanging on, many of my affiliates from the 90's are still around.
Considering most of my current affiliates are whales, I don't see them going anywhere either.
What name did you burn thru before coming back with this one?

Indeed, What goes up, must come down, just depends how high it can go & how long it can stay up for :pimp
