Message boards Need to Be More Innovative? - GoFuckYourself.com

BT · 03-10-2004, 04:26 AM

It seems, as the boards get more crowded the threads move faster and webmasters jump around from board to board like crickets. Where do you see GFY message board with the continuing evolution of its space? What process over time is going to be the break thru in the message board evolution to keep us Webmaster interested? For instance: "I would like a GFY virtual girl" who caters to my threads with passion & concern! Shut her off when she gets up tight?. Haha The message board industry is popping up like pop rocks did in the 1980's "Mikie he likes it? LMAO Anyway, I got to go jogging but give me some influx on some interesting changes that Innovation/evolution will bring to the unknown? What is gonna keep webmasters here with loyalty?

thats because there are hundreds of sigwhores raising their postcount with bullshit posts/threads

Boards are atracting webmasters by not enforcing their sig size policy. But it creates more and more sigwhores and dilutes what is interesting to be read or discussed.

I found myself parsing the threads on GFY or on other board like I parse the spam in my mailbox...

Don't you?

what he said. most ppl actually don't talk with/to each other....they just try to get their sig viewed, postcount up. every second post is like "ok", "fuck" or a smilie....well and in some cases a stupid pic of a red car

I feel where you coming from cuss I got a friend who arrest back in the day for branding my cd all over town. Maybe the post whore police should contruct some common law here. Make it up to the affiliate programs to hire the local publicist not the common thief!!

guschi2k · 03-10-2004, 06:14 AM

haha hopefully the branding thingy was worth it

sponsors should just drop all that wm-referral bonus stuff (and therefor maybe shave less *lol). i'd be all for it

, but i guess that's not going to happen.
but it might also help a lot if there would be some policy like..."to qualify for referral bonus payout you need to generate XX signups in the same period"

markell · 03-10-2004, 06:19 AM

most have probably their own music/webradio running. i never work w/o any background music or stuff.

maybe some sort of "weekly/monthly workshop" with basic webmaster lessons would be interesting ... but then again ... i've seen it a couple of times and it usually just turned into some kinda bullshit.

Hi

There is too many message boards out there and they all seem the same.

Or they are almost dead or they are 95% bullshit. You must wait days untill a interesting thread pops up. And when they pop, they get hijacked by stupid sig whores and their one word posts.

The challenge is to find a way to get rid of the useless posts and threads without getting rid of the fun and freedom as well. That would be really innovative.

Any ideas?

kisses,

Milena

I couldn't agree with you more. I don't think the sig industry has had a positive effect on GFY, theres just more and more shit to weed through every day now

NickB. · 03-10-2004, 09:57 AM

I truly get way more business done here than any other board for sure!

some of the sig whores irritate me though

BT · 03-10-2004, 12:01 PM

The truth of the matter is......... Opinions vary!

Lensman has done a great job with this message board but what does that have to do with the price of tea in china? Innovation with some trippy blue skies streaming across the darkness of my interface.... "Hold that thought a webmaster on line 1"
