Would you NOT do business with someone based on their GFY persona?
 
Would you NOT do business with someone based on info from GFY.


I have passed on some things based on stufff from here with some people.....

Sly_RJ 12-08-2003 12:31 AM

Nope. What I mean is, I've spent and made a good chunk of money on people from this board that seem like total dipshits. On the other hand, I've tried doing business with some of the "respectable" people here on the board, only to realize that they have no business doing business...

xanx 12-08-2003 12:31 AM

YEP

Mr Pheer 12-08-2003 12:31 AM

Most definately would not based on some of the shit I see here.

Ice 12-08-2003 12:32 AM

Definatly. I have done business with people on here because of their reputation. I just ignore the assclowns...even if I would need a service they are providing. There are enough other people on here that you can choose who you do business with

eroswebmaster 12-08-2003 12:34 AM

It depends.

I wouldn't hold it against someone just because we disagreed on a subject.

I would also take everything into consideration not just one event...sometimes people have bad days.

The only ones I have any real problems with are those who try to fuck with people just for the sake of fucking with them.

And as far as personas go, we both now that there's a lot of "reputable," webmasters who hide behind other nicks to do their dirty work.

I find that more sad than the ones who are just asses out in the open with everyone knowing full well who they are.

tell me who is more trustworthy?

The hardworking asshole who is open and honest about what biz he/she runs? or the coward hiding behind an anonymous nick creating havoc while posting ass kissing on his other?

SleazyDream 12-08-2003 12:36 AM

sorry - can't help myself - i love fucking with people tooo way too much.


but i never hide under another name

Wiseman 12-08-2003 12:36 AM

I hope they dont!!!
I would never make any $$$$$$$$$$

Why 12-08-2003 12:37 AM

i too never hide under another name.

i think sleazy is a fucker on here, but that wouldnt stop me from doing business with him. im a fucker on here too, someone shouldnt penalize me for that.

Exactly!:thumbsup Case in point... [Labret] can be a complete whiny ass simp online but when it comes to plunking down $$$$ the guy is generous and Fair. I'd take that over "board reputation" any time.

psyko514 12-08-2003 12:39 AM

it depends on their persona.
people like you or Amp come sometimes come across as complete assholes, but i'd never hesitate to do business with either of you.

it's all in the way you act as an asshole. if you're just flaming people for fun, it wouldn't affect my opinion of you. if you're flaming programs, or trashing people's work/reputation/companies without basis, that would steer me away from you.

Ah....BUT.....A board reputation is not necessarily the same reputation as the one they have in person.

Myself for example. :Graucho

Anybody that judge people based on their country origin..I wouldn't ..

Babaganoosh 12-08-2003 12:41 AM

Typically I don't care how a person acts here. I will do business with almost anyone. I will admit there are a few extreme cases where I have refused to deal with people but I have to have a burning hatred for that person first.

I'm not talking fucking with people in fun. I don't know where I stand with you, you may hate my fucking guts but I don't take it personally...LOL

When you post about your elite party and say shit to get a rise out of people it passes like a fart in the wind...I just laugh at the others who get riled and feel the need to respond.

I'm talking about the devious ones we get on here. The ones who do malicious stuff, or the ones who just seem as though their life has been a cluster fuck since day one.

MetaMan 12-08-2003 12:42 AM

i dont care about peoples board persona, im not a lil whiny college school girl.

i do things with people based on their knowledge and seriousness, its not hard to tell within 2 min if you are talking to a complete moron wannabe or someone who wants to actually deal.

Board reputation? Ahaha. You guys take this damn board WAY too seriously in that department. There is tons of money to be made away from GFY.

What you talkin bout Willis? :eek7

brizzad 12-08-2003 12:45 AM

no matter how they are on gfy, ill still consider talking to them on icq/through email before doing business

most of the people on here act like a hard ass just to try and seem cool and because they know everyone else is reading what they post... but once you get them in an icq convo, their mood/online personality totally changes

KaLi 12-08-2003 12:45 AM

No. Business is business. If the person is an asshole on the boards, doesnt mean that he conducts business in a badway. Then again, if the person is nice on boards, he could quite possible be a bad person to deal with.

Yep. If they don't want to do business with me because of my board presence then they can kiss my ass and take their money elsewhere. I got into this businss because I was tired of other people dictating my actions. I'll be damned if I am gonna give a shit about losing business simply because somebody is too fucking ignorant to know that these boards are a joke.

Definitely. There are plenty of people to work with, so why bother with those who constantly come across on the boards like spoiled brats?

Yeah, okay.

A GFY persona might deter me from working with someone but I would prefer to make my own judgement after meeting them in person. A face to face talk is where I make my decision, not based over a GFY character.

Speaking of...you gonna be easy to find in Vegas?

Wouldn't mind meeting you.

I'm pretty easy to spot in the crowd. I'm the long haired, long bearded hobbit.

beemk 12-08-2003 01:18 AM

it helps judge character. you cant judge someone because you dont agree on certain stuff, the only thing i would use to judge is how trustworthy they are. if i've gotten into arguments with someone but they seem trustworthy, i wouldnt hesitate to do business with them if it means that im going to benefit or make $ off of them.

kristin 12-08-2003 01:31 AM

Nope, if they want to pay me for my content I will not be bias toward anyone. :)

Yup, I'll be around the TCG/LoveDollars booth more than likely so you can find me around there. If not there, I'll be attending most of the after-parties :)

SomeCreep 12-08-2003 01:40 AM

yep.

bhutocracy 12-08-2003 01:43 AM

Depends on the "faults" of the persona - ie irrationailty, lack of thought etc.
But if there is good money I don't give a fuck..
unless you count petty stuff like typing a url instead of clicking to deprive a particular person a commission... but thats not business.

He'll be easy to spot. He'll be the one with the shiny, straight teeth, drink in one hand, and a fist full of dollar bills in the other. :winkwink:

smack 12-08-2003 02:15 AM

I don't think someone's GFY persona would deter me from doing buisness with save for two conditions:

known scam artist.

or

something i feel will effect the quality of the service. (turnaround time for example, or say poor support).

but if the person has the product or service that i need and it is quality i wouldn't think twice about it.

I never said he did not tell the truth. And that's all I have to say about that.

berg.the.red 12-08-2003 02:19 AM

yep. already passed on a few programs because of GFY stuff ...

 Smokey The Bear  12-08-2003 02:30 AM

Yes. Boards are a good judge of a persons character. Also a great place for learning the ins and outs of certain sponsors.

Would i not do business purely because of someones board persona , NO.

But its a good reference point.

With some people , its just a give in :)
