Below, my convo with Robbie and then Eric from the thread linked above:

Then easy enough to get all the loudmouths who brag how they "used to be in adult" but now they are so smart and rich because they ONLY do "mainstream" and just come to GFY to make fun of us stupid people in the adult industry. They have posted it themselves here over and over.
Just getting rid of all the surfers on here who have outed themselves trying to pretend to be millionaires in "mainstream" will be easy enough and wipe out a shitload of 'em. :1orglaugh
The rest pretty much reveal themselves with their aggressive behavior and general lack of knowledge about how anything works in this business.

What about guys like me? I'm on and off with the industry, though I'd love to be on all the time. In the past I've had a few paysites up with content I've shot, and others in the works, but shit happens, stuff fell through, and I took everything offline. Right now, I do some webwork for a phone sex company, and am working on some projects with a somewhat established company in the adult biz who doesn't have much of an online presence, all working toward once again shooting my own stuff and launching my own program. But, with all that said, all I really have to show as proof are a couple of domains with placeholder "coming soon" images on them. I'm here for the fucking around, and I do read a lot and learn a lot from this board. But don't really have much proof of me being in the industry, though.
But then, I don't come here and try to stir up shit with people either, so...

Sounds to me like you're in the adult industry. It's a big industry with a lot of facets: Hookers, porn stars, strippers, shooters, agents, paysites, studios, designers, affiliates, phone sex, massage parlors, etc.

I like to consider myself in the adult industry, too, but my concern was that I don't have links in my sig, and I'll be honest in that I don't really discuss business on here. Once I finally get things rolling the way I want, that will most likely change, as I know there's a lot of you guys I'd love to work with from a business perspective. But looking at my posts and profile alone, I could be branded a surfer.

It will be put up or shut up time. Users will be able to call out individual posters who either state they are not part of the industry or prove they are such. The mods will then follow up with that user with a private email to discuss with them their involvement in the industry. If it is determined that the user is part of the industry they will be cleared and allowed to stay.
Abuse of reporting users to the Mods will result in the reporting user being banned, this is not to be a situation where you say, "I don't like so and so, so I am going to report him as a surfer and get him banned."
It isn't a perfect system, but it is the best option we have.

So did I just "put up" without being called out? :thumbsup
