If you were I charge of gfy how would you fix it?
Ok, we all can see it's going to the shitter. It's important to remember it's just here to make money, so bearing that in mind...
Here are my suggestions, post yours
Create a sub forum for fighting. Move all fight threads there.
Stop fucking about with Facebook, emails, twitter, report posts and all that shit dev work.
Pay people with skill to write decent threads, like the old edu series posts. Could just be paid with free ads. Hosting, marketing, seo, ad buying, shooting, editing, etc etc
Focus on sharing information, not racist/political/global warming threads
Help affiliates make themselves useful
Ban the pointless
Force sigs with links to the posters business. No business, no place here
Get some mods with experience and understanding
Encourage newbs with threads aimed at them
Start weekly google hangouts lead by different experts each week on different subjects
Add some gamification
Work t sensible punishment. Time. For 24 hours, then a week, then a month, then permabanned
Stop letting people rejoin with fake nicks
I get it, this place exists. It to help anyone, but to make money selling ads. However, unless shit changes, there won't be any ad impressions to sell.
Post your suggestions for improvements. Be better than just whinging like a bitch about stuff.
