AskDamageX is back online
 

Wasn't expecting that.

Maybe ask damage x why? (hah!)

Break forum rules a lot?

I didn't post a link.

We aren't allowed to talk about other forums here?

Perhaps I should http://AskShapY.com

All good, broski :thumbsup

good one Roald

Rule number 1 states:

"No "spamming" of other ADULT Industry boards"

"with the intent of stealing GFY members" Don't think that was the OPs intent.

Only douchebags harp on that rule at this point.

Spamming? LOL Rather more like sharing the shock and awe of it being resurrected.

Nice posting right now there.

were you the one in 2nd grade that told on people for chewing gum?

If I were still a mod, I would have closed the thread.

Posting it is back up is spamming that it's open for business imho and that's up to whoever is moderating

I think you guessed it correctly lol :thumbsup

ok, lets head over there intelligences

Thank you for providing the jury with reasonable doubt.

:)

Ive been following your posts and what a whiny lil bitch you are.

If your keyboard warrior ass pulled that shit in real life, you'd get your head stomped. No one tolerates rats.

That's too bad. I really do think this board loses out by that mindset, and not being able to post freely things that are relevant to the adult industry. :disgust

With all the other shit that's posted here, some lines have to be drawn

Hey shit for brains, I got that opinion from being a moderator here

Go Fuck Yourself and quit spamming other boards

Nothing personal, but that's a pretty weak line to be drawn compared to the "other shit" (your words) that's posted here. Frankly, it sounds rather playground-ish in the big picture with Damian quoting rules like a scorned youngster, and lines being drawn in the sand, all over the mentioning of another board's name (not url) that came back after being offline for some time.

Just my $0.02.. but I think there are certainly other things that would be far better addressed around here than this trivial stuff.

Robwood said it perfectly.

Vendzilla, I agree lines should be drawn, but mentioning of an old adult board coming back online is actually news to the industry, so your opinion about how this board should (and would be, if you were still moderator) is clearly censoring things that would/could help the knowledge and benefit to people in adult biz, pretty messed up imho :(
... I'm intending this in the most opinion-based non attacking kind of way, this really my total personal opinion on this matter.

According to your own criteria, I was either spamming or not spamming depending on who is mod of the moment.

You are your own worst enemy.

Yes but you are no longer a mod so you can coulda woulda until the cows come home.

Never mind the whole X-Biz forum backfire thread by beaner in which both Damian and Zilla participated in which generated lots a buzz for the X-Biz forum and was even posted to by someone advertising X-Biz in his signature.

Seems a bit like a double standard.

Whatever.

sigh

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

and that is why you are NOT a mod anymore????

Nope, that's not it, but keep trying. It lasted till the day I left playboy

I hope I never came off like that, except when Ice and I got into it for fun and kept deleting and editing each others posts.
Being a mod was fun and I hated having to deal with people just being assholes. Juicy went off the reservation once and I had to ban him, after Lensman had a talk with him, he was released from the ban. I hated to do it, but he posted over a 100 new threads in one day.

Although banning all the new nicks for LC was fun

It's just an opinion, for all I know, this is some asshat doing a favor for Damage to relaunch his forum, that's why there are rules in the forum.

Believe it or not, when I was a mod, most things like this were brought to the attention of all the mods and a decision was made after talking to everyone. Sometimes we would even talk to Eric or Lensman to get a clear decision . I got over written from time to time, but imho, this is spamming another forum.

Am I to believe that every time a new adult forum starts up, it can be mentioned here, as long as a link is not provided? NO

You should shut the fuck up and mind your own business (or lack thereof)

exactly, talk about whining, jesus christ.

Frankly, in my opinion, it is an insecurity about your own product/service if you're that afraid to lose customers to a competitor simply by mentioning them by name.

That said, I do find that several other forums suffer the same insecurity -- GFY is not unique in this insecurity. One would think GFY has a strong enough userbase to overcome such an insecurity -- I certainly think GFY does.

Wow, so when opinions are different than yours they are wrong? What a narrow minded buffoon!

Do you have a forum that rivals GFY in the adult industry? It's a general rule on most every forum.

I see Magnetron is a regular poster on that forum.

I have niche adult forums, I built them for webmaster help, info, etc. And I personally link the hell out of GFY threads when necessary. When relevant.

GFY doesn't have every inch of information all the time.... and sometimes it's relevant and necessary to post links to other forums for informative purposes (who posted what info, which time /day, see other replies from other users etc)

Sometimes people post in my forums "so and so posted on the zoo about this or that" and i ask them "please post the link to that thread"

:2 cents

I'm confident that all the members of his old forum that migrated to his new forum ( that I never joined ) were well informed of the relaunch of old forum. People were already back posting there before I even started this thread.

Surely you could have figured this out on your own if you chose to flex your brain muscles.

Rivals GFY in what regard. For business with less clutter? Most of them. For off-topic clutter and nonsense with some business in between? GFY wins hands down.

I am a member of several forums that allow, or encourage, open dialogue -- after all, we're adults, not in junior high (though sometimes the goings on around here make one wonder, but I digress). Syphoning forum members used to be a common rule when boards were first popping up all over the place. Now there's a handful of them left -- some more business focused (Xbix, for example), Some more community minded (MP's, for example), some more advertising/page views focused (GFY) with a touch of business, and still others.

On all of those, if you went there and typed , "Come join our new board", then of course that would be dealt with.

But this thread is not about deliberately trying to syphon members to a new board. It was just a topic that said, "hey, DamageX is back, never expected that to happen". There was no blatant "come join my new board!!". Heck, there was not even a URL.

GFY's userbase, and management, should certainly be secure in their product in this day and age to not get bent out of shape over the mention of a much smaller board that disappeared for a long time and was put back online.

But ..... in the event that you do happen to join within the next 60 minutes, you get your choice of a free stainless steel toaster or a set of barbecue utensiles.

:upsidedow

Wasn't expecting that either.

well good:thumbsup

Down for me.

Well that was quick, our board is still up :)

Don't Ban Me!!!

offline today

yes I love the MP :thumbsup

I think it's a little newsworthy because the site was online for so many years.. History already proves that it's no risk, also that most of us didn't know it was offline.

Brad

which is actually probably best Asian niche webmaster board ;)

back? i didn't even know it was down.

wasn't ever much going on there.

i chuckled..
