Do you like GFY?
 

Personaly, I dont really like it and never have.

The only thing that keeps me coming back, is that sometimes somebody will post some good info. I consider myself lucky if I've managed to weed thru all the garbage posted by the regular idiots and find something worth reading.

There are 12 people here (yes I counted) that I will click on thier posts when they make one, because I know most of the time its business related and they always have something to say worth listening to.

In measured doses, sure

I like it less than I did in 2001-2002. But GFY's still the board I post most in.

so what about the pictures of my dick??? are you saying thats not buisness

if not

you oughta tell my girlfriend that

she says its serious biz

I am beginning to really hate it here....almost to the point of not coming back

but in all reality, if you have some sort of business to promote it is a nice place to do it....I can put something in my sig and go crazy posting for a week, and by the end of it, everyone knows that business

I would love to see an invite only type board for people that only want to talk business :2 cents:

It's ok, but Ice Cream is better ;)

yes... that would be nice

Or maybe an invite-only business forum here at GFY. You post bullshit, you're out.

Are you listening, Lensman?

I scroll the main page about 5 times before finding a thread to open :Oh crap around 1 in 50 threads is 'interesting'

i hate it but i cant stop posting :1orglaugh

I like it. There's a lot of cool people here, personas aside. Although the info threads can be spotty sometimes, there's enough of them to warrant coming back.

GFY = necessary evil. Pure shit for acquiring info and knowledge, most of the time, but decent for making B2B sales. If I didn't have products/services that cater to the webmaster market, I wouldn't be caught dead posting here.

There are dozens of "business" boards out there. Whydont you fuck off and start hanging out there?

Funny to see people with thousands of posts saying they don't like it here.

As for MrPheer saying he is here just for business... lol

Been here for quite a while now. Worth a time, both for business and pleasure. :thumbsup

I really like this place even though there are lots of haters here but there are also good ones. :thumbsup

I like it.

I learn something every now and then, and there is drama if I want entertainment.

It's practically useless unless you are a sig whore or are looking up useful info in the acrhives.

Yeah sometimes I like to fuck around. I'm just saying, it would be nice to have an all-business forum here, and people that post stupid shit get shown the door and not allowed back in.

Nothing at all wrong with fun & games, but everything has its place.

I went this whole weekend without checking gfy and when i came to work this morning, i went through 8 pages of unread threads and only opened 6 threads. That tells you how much info i found relevant around here these days.

I've been posting less and less lately because they not only closed my Fonz thread, they made me get rid of my sig for being too big, but allow someone else whos name will go unmentioned to have a sig 4 times as big as mine.

I agree totally. So much bullshit, and yeah, sure I act like a goofy pirate, but I do try with my useful posts to help people out. It gets harder, and harder to do that lately, and I like helping people.

Killing a thread that everyone liked, (the fonz thread Shoehorn! started ) while allowing all the other shit, left a bad taste in my mouth. It gets worse each day it seems.
