Hmmm...a bit insulting towards GFY, I think.

Got this in a newsletter to which I am subscribed.

World's Longest Thread Contest
Recently another webmaster board has a "World's Longest Thread Contest" which produced around 35K posts in just under 6 days. To us, this seems like a waste of space, time, energy & most of all, a bull shit attempt to inflate the boards total posts. Jim & I would never lower ourselves to this level & to be quite honest, there's no need for us to do it either. Our board totals speak for themselves & that's almost 99.44% due to you, our fellow webmasters. We will never beg or bribe anyone to post on our board & we pride ourselves on that. Sure, if you get 1000 posts we're gonna send you a $12.99 Buddy Christ dashboard figure, but if you're that hard up for the gift, it might be time to rethink your life choices :)

Tear this apart at will.

i bet they arent making as much money as GFY is.. lol

A fundamental misunderstanding of a new communication medium. GFY is in the business of attracting eyeballs.

I believe that as bulletin board technology increases, these boards will present a very real threat to established media organizations.

They didnt know the reason behind it. Probably jealous that they are a small board.

we dont pay people to post on our board.... we just publically bash on others boards to make ourselfs look cool!

tell them get a fucking life!

It actually refers to a different board, I believe.

Obviously

Seeing as there are no posts on GFY with 35,000 replies, I am not sure how this is insulting to GFY.
