The industry has changed, why hasn't GFY?
 

I see the complaint all the time about the industry changing, well that means you have to change with it.
Well, here's an idea. Spilt up the domains, use gfyboard.com for the forum
Use GFY.com for a social media platform/onlyfans hybrid.
Then use gofuckyourself.com as a merchandise platform. You could sell your own clothing line and you might know a few people that would work as affiliates to sell it.

And got gawds sake, don't put some idiot with a degree in charge of it, you need someone with an imagination to run it.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Mark Twain,...............

What forum? This is more like child care

Yeah, I miss Mark aka (Texas Dreams)
He made all this fun. He wouldn't have tolerated a lot of the bullshit going on.
Still remember him saying in the office for his birthday, " no one better be giving me any fucking balloons"
So I got him balloons, tied to a bottle of Jack Daniels, he was ok with that!

so split up the already small audience?

sell things the already small audience has no interest in?

gfy already found its purpose. its not going to change "with the times".

gfy is where we discuss and complain about the constantly changing markets and technology. we all know about all the changes.

:2 cents:

GFY is on life support.

a sign of the industry it supports?

gfy is solo producers, small biz owners, affiliates, and tech support. and a shitload of retired dudes :1orglaugh

where's all the other boards? only 2 left? xbitch survives on nubes, conferences, and dating sponsors.

Business advice coming from someone who had to give up in the business and drive a truck.

To be fair, Tube sites have nearly destroyed the affiliate model. Look how dead this place is and how much stolen content there is.

Don't forget how the business is full of scammers like DeeCash and everyone else that idolizes people like the Tates.

Look back to the MGP and TGP days, the people were much nicer and other than a couple of bad apples, you could confidently do business with people and trust them. As the business matured, it became more and more rife with scammers and people willing to trade short term gain to fuck the entire business over. Now in 2023, scammers and fraudsters are openly supported in society, and the tube sites are like massive pay sites that use content from the programs to enrich themselves without offering really anything innovative at all.

I left the business myself, and I was happy to work a regular job. I really enjoyed it and probably wouldn't have come back to the business if it weren't for the bullshit COVID "vaccine" in Canada and how they could bring back the "vaccine" pass at any moment if I had a regular job. The beta male cattle all lined up to take the shot like a bunch of clueless cowards, and I will never be that type of dweeb. Not to mention that real estate prices in Canada are artificially inflated by mass immigration, and that even when I was making $40 an hour as the head of health and safety for a construction company here, half my entire income was going towards just rent, car insurance, and gas. So fuck that shit, I'm back in porn and my website, which is almost ready to show off on here, makes Xvideos and Xhamster look like a retarded person designed them.

Would be nice to see more people on GFY, but good people are few and far between in 2023.

true and can be said for the entire internet. as tech matures, the early investors get pushed out, either by fraud or corporations (also usually fraud).

AI will be the next tech pushing out all these early adopters. get in and get out.

most of us stayed in porn (too long) because we love it. the corporations took the big piles of cash and assets, but its still pretty easy to make a living if you put in weekly hours.

#

Porn is where someone like me belongs because I am not a conformist. I am always going to be an outsider and a rebel. Canada in 2023 is a fucking disgusting shithole of a country and working for anyone else is simply intolerable. I have a kid here, so I will not leave.

The fact that I was pushed out of TWO jobs, one working with disabled seniors, the other as a health and safety guy for a big Canadian construction company, and fired from both for refusing the COVID "vaccine" and then demonized for 8+ months and shut out of society was a huge fucking joke. I hate this fucking country, I hate the people here, I hate the fucking government, I hate the fucking shit eating pigs.

Internet porn is where I can work without worry of ever needing a fucking "vaccine" to not be homeless.

Yeah, you live in a country where if you complain like some of your truckers, your fearless leader can shut down your bank accounts.
I moved from California to Oklahoma because of the bullshit going on.
Yeah I'm a trucker now, but I'm happy. Only bill I have is the big rig and a new Harley. I live in a big house with no neighbors outside a town so small it doesn't even have a stop light.
That doesn't take away from having an idea I want to pass on about GFY surviving. With my idea, it could not only generate more business, but could keep what was started over 20 years ago alive .
Christie Hefner, during a Playboy company meeting called me brilliant for a couple of my ideas, maybe someone should listen to me?

adult should have done the fucking crypto! it's too late now. the credit cards turned on them.

Surely, you mean "retarded dudes".

"generate more business" - where's your proof of concept? your opinion?

"maybe someone should listen to me" - based on what current or recent successful projects?

everybody has a great fucking idea. in this industry, words are cheap. build it or stfu. telling someone else they should listen to your ideas is a waste of energy. we've all got our own projects.

ps. i think trucking is a great profession. i'm not taking anything from your chosen profession. i wouldn't tell you how to drive a truck tho.

:thumbsup

If you don't see value in a domain that's 3 letters that stands for gofuckyourself, then you wouldn't be someone I would include in the conversation, this would take imagination

No need to get personal man.... What have I ever done to you? :helpme

Chances are, I live in a bigger house than you do, have less stress, less bills and better neighbors than you do.
My truck is close to being paid off , seen Joan Jett, Elton John, Foo fighters and green day this year so far, bought a new Harley and spent a week in Milwaukee for a grand time with 80,000 attendees just having fun.
During COVID, you spent all your time not leaving the house, I traveled all over the country.
So maybe you should listen because

You're on GFY throwing out insults to people you don't know.

the question isn't who would you include in the conversation, but who would include you?

i've made a living in this industry for over 20 years. never left. the only non-industry work i've done is non-profit. i'd listen to me before you. however, since i'm intelligent, i'd probably listen to both.

there's a few old dinosaurs around here who couldn't build a 100k site from scratch in today's market. they're still welcome to lecture the daily grinders here on this dinosaur forum.

:pimp

#

I built over 500 websites, including some very big sites while working as the Club Jenna Webmaster.
I moved on, but one thing you didn't notice, I didn't ask anyone to include me in the conversation, I just believe that anyone that doesn't see the value in a three letter domain is not someone I would not want in the conversation.
Sorry if that reference upsets you. Not everyone has imagination, I do and that never goes away.

we all have history. it has nothing to do with what works today.

:2 cents:

As are you..

I live on a multi acre property and spent covid swimming in my pool.

I work a few hours a day.

So you believe a onlyfans style site wouldn't work, got it.
Or a clothing line with gofuckyourself printed on?

Good for you, maybe spread your hate somewhere else then

Newer affiliate marketers don't really join forums anymore, they have other channels to network with. Use multiple platforms, GFY is still useful on it's own.

Useful to a limited audience, never said it wasn't, growth is a good thing

Sadly, those same nazis that would fire you for not taking an experimental jab that didn’t do fuck all at preventing the spread of covid are all here and would gladly run you out of the adult biz if they could.

your ideas are 5 years old.

you know what a "merch" shop makes? $10k a month.

the OF thing is played. do you have any idea what it takes to build a model network and get say 5k models? i have that experience. its a lot of daily work for low pay.

so, lets spec it out.. who will build this magical dream network? who will manage it? you on bathroom breaks? biggest question, who will pay for it? gofundme?

its an unfeasible idea today. that is the conversation. not about who's house is bigger or who built an affiliate network 20 years ago (hint: many of us did and remember you lol).

you can make it about whatever you want, but reality is fact.

With so much negativity, how do you stand yourself?

Well I don't remember you and if you look back, imagination is needed. You clearly are defeated in that area.

all facts :thumbsup

facts aren't negativity. i have real world current experience in the exact things you suggested.

this is your thread, where's your operations plan? where's your report on current revenue of similar models? where's your CV showing you have any experience with these things in the last 5 years?

what investment in this plan of yours are you making? are you putting your money where your mouth is? or you're just offering some old ideas everybody here talked about years ago?

its sad that you have to insult to get your point across. success takes more than a few ideas.

here's some tunes for your day job :winkwink:

Getting gofuckyourself up and running would be simple, merely partner with a clothing manufacturer to retool for a different brand.

GFY, build a better mousetrap, a better site than onlyfans. You need programers for that.

I never said I wanted to run all this, you are using conjecture to say I'm not up to it. I am, but I don't have a need for it.

Again, you can't see a potential because of a lack of imagination, that would be needed to pull this off. Given the state of things where Bud Light and CMT has lost billions because people are telling them to gofuckyourself, I would conclude there is a market there that would go well above 10k a month, maybe a day would be closer.

i've spent over 1000 hours building, growing, and managing a model fan site, which is over 1000 hours more experience than you. i can talk for hours about the intricacies of running a model fan site because i've done it. recruiting, verifying, and onboarding models; growing a fanbase; payment systems and payouts; content management. i don't have to imagine it. i've done it.

you need to attract at least 5-10 models a day to grow a model fan site. recruit, verify, onboard - that's 1-2 hours a day. you need at least 100 new fans per week to keep those models happy. that's money and time. payout calc and send is a couple more hours per week.

i code and build adult products and sites every day, usually 7 days a week. you spent all of your time in this thread trying to disqualify me, rather than give any details or real world facts about your plan.

imagination and ideas are the easy part.

Are you serious? Where are they?

The "vaccine" was COMPLETE bullshit. There have been more excess deaths post-rollout of the "vaccine" than during peak COVID!

If you haven't noticed, I've not been posting a pretty long time.
I've already given the details.
What's funny is you just proved my point, you work hard on this, so it must be worth it.
And you're doing it without a 3 letter domain and the help of all the people of GFY.

You are correct!
More people died of COVID after Biden took office and he had the jab.
I had COVID, sucked for a few days, but got thru it.
Never took the jab

Hell yeah brother, my entire family and I never took the vaxx. COVID was a mild 3-4 day cold for us.

My 4 year old at the time was fine in 2 days. She's 7 now and 100% a healthy and happy kid.

COVID was a massive fucking scam.

I'm 62, have a couple health issues that I've had since the Navy, take my meds, but that's it.
Both my parents are still alive in their 80's and they took it, they're both fine. Daughter took it, but my wife and I never did. When I was sick with it, my wife was right there worried about me.
So natural immunity was what we banked on and seeing all these athletes taking hits, kinda wonder. Still wonder about the timing of the whole thing and how the democrats jumped on controlling the masses. I live in the reddest states in the union on an Indian reservation, last place anyone wants to start anything, I love it here.

#NaturalImmunity was banned on Instagram.

My old personal trainer's father was an athlete in his late 50's / early 60's, he took the "vaccine" and had 2 heart attacks and a stroke in under 2 weeks and died. His death was considered an unvaccinated COVID death here in Canaduh.

My in-law's neighbour took the vaxx and in under a month his lung cancer from 20+ years ago came back and killed him in under 2 months.

A former friend of mine fainted 10+ times after taking the "vaccine" and then for 3 months had spells where they would be sitting watching TV at night and their heartrate would hit 120-130+ while doing nothing. When I openly refused the vaxx, we had a fight on Facebook before my account was nuked, and we are no longer friends.

A co-worker of mine had tinnitus so bad they had to seek medical attention to try and reduce it.

ANOTHER co-worker of mine could not longer stand for more than 30 minutes at a time, so we switched them to driving roles.

I know about the co-worker issues because I was involved in health and safety in the company I was working at, so the workers would report this stuff to me.

When COVID started and people got laid off, two of our workers overdosed and died within the first few weeks of layoffs due to boredom and losing their identity of being "hard workers" which they were proud of. The gyms were also closed, so they went back to using and paid the price.

My father-in-law took the vaccine and within a few days lost the sight in his right eye. He needed surgery to fix his eyesight. He denies it was the vaccine, but it was a close coincidence. I was angry about this because he drove my daughter around with only one eye working and had an accident with her in the car.


They say:
"You have a higher chance of getting myocarditis from COVID than the vaccine"

So where are all of the unvaccinated people talking about their myocarditis?

Why is it that you can find so many vaccinated people on Reddit and other places talking about suspected vaccine injuries, but you cannot find posts from unvaccinated people complaining about myocarditis?

COVID Grandpa is a great watch:
https://www.youtube.com/@Campbellteaching/videos

Watch this guy's videos from the START of COVID where he was 100% pro-vaxx and shitting on the unvaccinated.

Then watch over the years as he slowly woke up and turned on the vaxx and reported everything very matter-of-fact.

Today, he alludes to the fact that the "vaccine" was total fucking poison.

God, I feel like such an asshole tof getting off-topic, but when it comes to that fucking "vaccine" I go total apeshit.


Glad a fellow GFY'er is doing well. The porn industry has given me a great life, and I want to give back by creating the next thing beyond the tube site. I'll be showing it off soon.

I think GFY is a great political forum.
The last forum that Pfizer and government couldn't (mind)control.
And where the adult industry can speak out uncensored.

We need merchandise, lost my GFY hat some years ago on JFK's Kingsday Cruise.

Truck Trudeau!

Yo mamma!

:1orglaugh

I think I met you at the Phoenix forum!


When I came back through customs that year and I had video of the Lightspeed Girls jumping on the trampoline nude, I was held in customs for 6 hours and threatened with a cavity search because the customs agents claimed it was child porn.

I said "look in the video you fucking losers, there are cops standing in the background near the garage door exit watching too, you fucking dipshits"


Holy fucking shit, they had 6 guards circle me while some short haired dyke cunt berated me and accused me of being a pedo.

A girl stole my GFY hoodie when we broke up... I need another GFY hoodie so bad.

I have some cool projects that I'm working on at home, one is a 1958 Chrysler Imperial with a 392 hemi in it. It only has 14,000 miles on the odometer and it's a fucking boat of a car that has all the luxury of the time.
I converted the formal dining room into a game room that's almost finished. My dad gave me a pool table he had custom made in 79 by the Adler Pool table company, had it appraised at 14k. I have a 1966 coke machine in the room and some cool art made out of some car parts in there.
I volunteer with the American Legion when I can, it's a veteran group that does some cool things, I'm supposed to meet up with the legion riders at some point, retirement is maybe three years at most away. I could retire now, but want to finish what I started with this trucking gig.
I can't see another house from my house and it's the biggest house I've ever lived it. Cost less than half what we got for our condo in Los Angeles and it's kinda cool living on a reservation.

So yeah, life is good, no worries, only payments are for the new bike and my KW. I'll have them paid off in a couple years.

Well there's something that hasn't changed, how are you brother?

I think I have a video from the naked dodge ball game somewhere. People still question weather that ever happened

I still have some, I think most of it made the move. A clothing line would sell like crazy if done right

GFY needs to expand way past the adult industry. There should be a forum for cars, for movies, for tech, for every single category out there... And then promote it to all kinds of people.

:1orglaugh

I thought you quit this shit years ago.
I guess you miss the touture.

:helpme

I probably won't be here long, I keep up with some industry peeps on FB.
