GFY is dead
 

What a shame. Remember the days when this place was more like a chatroom than a message board. Sad days for GFY.

i like poo

GFY really got popular when BP4L was all in the same room at the convention in Vancouver


It died when they banned BoneProne.

It's an opinion . . .

The Cracker Barrel is having a lot of fun.

long live GFY

that was when they were all still making easy money selling pron

Well yeah.

Everybody still reads it, though! GFY is kind of like the women that men do, but don't like to admit to their friends...

Brad

How is it dead? Looking good to me

He's not banned. He simply chooses not to come here.

How many professions are still available to misfits like myself where we can make good money while being ourselves still?

I'd say 20 years ago, a lot of dorks such as myself could still find things like pron and other things to make money with, now that so much of life has been taken over by big corporations, you either have to sell out and becoming Mr. Wannabe Establishment or you just get fucked...

Super lucky if you can still be a somewhat-independent person while making money for yourself.

Life right meow seems sooooooooooooooooooooo conformist.

I love this dead gay forum.

Imho, GFY is rather the boring woman who lacks originality and with whom we are less and less willing to talk.

I think part of the problem is your outlook.

You see those of us still in the business as "super lucky" but I see it as guys that still work hard.

the war on terror killed a lot of shit... including the people buying porn. not just porn was hit by it.

I've got a brilliant theory: all those chatters were the historical program owners themselves, diligently screwing over affiliates while avoiding any actual work. They must have been utterly dedicated to messing around all day on the board, trying to lure in affiliates. And surprise, all those programs have magically vanished, leaving a mountain of unpaid money behind. Naturally, these paragons of virtue have also disappeared from the board. How shocking! If something is dead, than it is the idea of fair business.

Love that song. Lux Interior was one of a kind. :thumbsup

Dammmmnnnn... :disgust

Yeah, the promises of lifetime revenues was a warning sign on the first place . . .

I'd say more than ever in the world of self-publishing and organic discovery. There are way more people "making good money while being themselves" today than there ever was in adult 20 years ago.

Social media, youtube, podcasting. This is how people do it. No it's not easy.

GFY is not dead. When people look back to the glory days, that was when everything was new, so there was a lot of opportunity for first mover advantage. Adapt or die as they say. It's not easy, and for a lot of the type of people on here, it may be that non-adult now has better opportunities.

I mean it is dead in the sense that 10 years ago you would be on page one and on the bottom it would say Last Post: Yesterday, instead of last weeks date like it is now.

But then again, most of those threads were "how do I get TGPX to work?", or "does this sponsor pay?", or "anyone want to trade traffic? looking for QUALITY links", sometimes an ANAL HOBBIT thread.

You can still pick a nugget out of all the shit here once in a while. Just wash it off and use it.
On the other hand, if I could fuck myself, I'd be doing it all the time.

So there's that.

Things change. Times change. Most of the new guys have never even heard of GFY.

Right! I recommended GFY to a young friend aged 22yo. He looked at the forum during fifteen minutes then he deleted the link from his comp. :(

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I'd say everyone working in adult has still heard of GFY, they just don't care. The general consensus among people I hang out with who make a lot of money in this industry is that GFY is for losers and broke weirdos and an overall waste of time :Oh crap

I mean 20+ years ago people figured out how to make a bunch of money from home, and developed this punk rock community of throwing porn up and getting paid. In 2024 most the money is made by companies who have offices and staff and work 9-5.

He probably saw your gay-ass dick-worshipping thread . . .

Go away already, Mark Zuckerballz . . .

Should be like "ah thought you were a true rise and grind hustler, making fat stacks until the sun comes up, guess not".

Then maybe belittle him some more for the sake of GFY's honor.

Indeed , work hard and make fresh content and the $$$ still come.

hahahhaha!!!!!! :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Something for the sandy motherfuckers in here . . .

As a loser and a broke weirdo, I hope I don't scare people away!

They don't see the insanely fun and amazing 15+ year run people like me had!

I still remember Jays-XXX-Links posting pics of the first 20" chrome wheels I ever saw back in like 2002(?), so bad ass...

Here is an idea. Unban everyone that was banned. Wild west it again for a while, and maybe the board will reignite. Maybe you've overregulated it...:winkwink:

This place isn't even fun for those of us who constantly got banned.

Half the posts are boomers fighting about biden/trump, the other half are lame posts with nothing of substance.

I come here once every 3 months and scroll the main board and nothing even stands out as worthy of clicking to read, my eyes have shifted from reading thread titles to seeing who posted it because maybe it's worth a read if the right person posted it. Which coincidentally I only opened this thread because Harmon posted it.

Dude bro, what's up!

Living the dream, how you doing?

I wonder what percentage of people who still visit this website are here mainly to check the obituaries. Quite frankly it's nice to see the humanity in people.

Hell yea! Same here, just took the dog for a walk then bust out some work.

Same, except instead of a walk we went on a burn cruise because the heat in the midwest right now is disgusting.

Being honest it's about 85% of the reasons I check in on the boards. Usually get the notification on FB about it from other GFY members posting there, then come here to get more details.

You meant to type 5-9 there didn't you ?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

It's a 20 second wait after clicking on anything now.

What happened?

I noticed the same thing. Maybe the board switched hosting or something because it’s really slow.

Seems to be much faster today for me.
