Why is GFY so popular..... - GoFuckYourself.com

Scottish Guy · 01-16-2007, 01:26 AM

How did this site become so popular? Do you think its because of the age of the board? or because of playboy owning it? or because of the domain name? or just good marketing?

marko13 · 01-16-2007, 01:27 AM

or maybe because all the industry players are coming here..

playboy just recently bought it....it was popular way before then..actually i think it slowed down ever since playboy bought it...

One name pops into my mind: Juicy

$5 submissions · 01-16-2007, 02:17 AM

Because everything is here:

News
Drama aka piss fights
Colorful personalities
Funky news stories
explosive opinions
trolling
questions and answers
online publishing news
model pics
site revelations
contests

You put that all together, add a dash of Tim Leary and Franz Kafka, sprinkle some Thomas Pynchon, pinch in a little 50cent and electronica and 70's rock music and you've got GFY

Easy to admire, hard to replicate

martinsc · 01-16-2007, 02:33 AM

the drama... it's all about the drama....

Scottish Guy · 01-16-2007, 02:35 AM

It does have everything I seem to get distracted from my work a lot with checking this place out, And it is starting to affect my income I suppose the same has happened to many others? Once you find that golden drama thread and it gets to be about 10 pages you need to keep up and read along thats what fucks me over as time flys when you watch a good trolling

reynold · 01-16-2007, 02:50 AM

NaughtyRob · 01-16-2007, 03:09 AM

The board gets us all laid.

Violetta · 01-16-2007, 05:28 AM

crazyforyou · 01-17-2007, 08:51 AM

because of the combination of all elements which you said, it works really excellent

cool1 · 01-17-2007, 09:26 AM

Its "GFY" what else can one say

Brad · 01-17-2007, 09:29 AM

for me this board is super sweet because it offer me the chance to meet ppl in the industry as well as learn a lot.

Boobs · 01-17-2007, 09:33 AM

i get all my news on here, enough said

Wizzo · 01-17-2007, 09:41 AM

Many of the reasons you guys listed are wrong... It was launched at the right time and we did a awesome job early on of marketing it, which in turn made it very busy, which in turn made more people want to visit...

It was very successful and established before Juicy, before Lens bought GFY and the only way you could get here was to type out gofuckyourself, but it was the 1st board that would give you a Tshirt for 100posts back in the day...

Sarah_Jayne · 01-17-2007, 09:50 AM

right place, right time and grew from there

Bro Media - BANNED FOR LIFE · 01-17-2007, 09:51 AM

Himuro · 01-17-2007, 10:18 AM

I think it's all about the name + the 3 letters domain

gfx3 · 01-17-2007, 10:31 AM

Because it allows rude people and people to be rude.

Star 69 · 01-17-2007, 10:48 AM

Because all of reasons!

Pinacolada · 01-17-2007, 10:49 AM

cause it's too damn dirty and all "sightly" people in industry come here

lot · 01-17-2007, 10:52 AM

Cuz ppl in the board had a clear marketing strategy!

Klen · 01-17-2007, 11:09 AM

Who was owning gfy before playboy?

Mr. Romance · 01-17-2007, 11:16 AM

Because it is ran by great people

Mr. Romance

CyberHustler · 01-17-2007, 11:21 AM

Robo · 01-17-2007, 11:34 AM

Because this is Adult.com board. I think everyone of us remember Amateurpages and other Adult.com programs. If you start to be here, you'll stay for years. It's like a 'second home'

Wagerboy · 01-17-2007, 11:39 AM

I learn alot reading this board....Plus some of the posts are funny as hell...

Actually GFY came before Adult.com but I'm fairly sure that AmateurPages had some to do with the success...

Exactly.....

I remember when we had our first GFY parties when it was just "Family"
and Joe hadnt bought adult.com yet.

Then he did and he was pretty pumped up about it, but didnt know what to do with it.

The next year or so he made the adult.com jackets and gifts, but still adult.com had nothing on it..

Then a year after that adult.com became a program...

Man time flys....

I remember going to shows and telling everyone about GFY.. Damn I was a whore..

But this place felt like a part of me..

I no doubt put some of the bricks into the foundation of this place. I helped build it....

Bow to the Power.
