Did I just witness a ban-able offense? I like green.
“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”
I figured the income from b2b webmaster services dropped below a certain threshold, Jim had other income and responsibilities, so greeny took over the board responsibilities.
It's not impossible there was a dispute over the name, thats the nature of business, but the way this biz is collapsing and consolidating it's not the most likely explanation.
The argument against there being a name dispute is that there's now a aggregator on it - they just let it drop as irrelevant.
You couldn't find it in google, or I guess maybe you didn't think to look.
I frequent their board about few times per month.... and always been on greenguyandjim.... and to be redirecting it automatically made me think they quit the board'ing scene
dont know why i'm actually explaining myself...gawd

So you all think this Green Guy is so cool? He tried to rip me off years ago. I bought ad space from him and wired my payment to his American bank account. He kept saying that he didn't receive it, the most annoying thing was that he used smileys when saying that... like.. I'm fucking you and smiling at you. In the end I phoned his bank and they confirmed he did receive it and that the wire was added to his account weeks before that already. So I gave him two choices: either put up the banner I was paying for or I would get on the next flight to the USA to beat the crap out of him, make sure he would pay me back my money and cover my flight ticket as well (which I ended with a lot of smileys of course). One hour later the banner was online and he sent me a mail that he thought I was a rude bastard and that after the advertisement period was over, he would never do business with me again.

Then you are getting a very limited view of the business. GFY is more like a chatroom than a business forum. No disrespect to anyone here but most people in the industry come here to spam something or complain they didn't get paid, that's about it.
Unfortunately, with recent events most forums are but shadows of what they used to be. Or are just gone completely.
unbelievable, just checked greenguysboard.com and after all these years in the biz, to set up a new site with design and fonts of '95. I dont understand that. Link list people are really stuck in the past, it looks like shit.
I a policy of not blabbing about other people's junk when I don't know the entire story. But I will say I will never ever do business with Jim again.
lol I hear you, of course! I remember from back in the day though that gg/jim had some dude on a blacklist page and something about a biz falling out. I know people do that but I recall thinking it was sort of odd. Being in this biz for years, who hasn't had some falling out.
And yeah I never got into the linklist thing because as said in this thread, it seemed like the link list owners were so touchy and you had to post over there and nose up. lol heh sorry but my honest opinion.
board drama... they've all come and gone... and here we are still on gfy.
wondering when GG will show up in this thread? does he do the gfy? lol

Nah I know it goes beyond gfy... this is like a chat room for sure. I have lurked for sure, just no time to mingle text other places mostly. I like to post here, I have always liked the loose format. Like posting over there, they would move your threads and make a big deal out of it. Not gonna be me. lol
and yeah back in the day when we launched dmpm, even ole Jim came over there posting to give us shit, like we were some threat to their board. LOL. GOOD TIMES!!
I couldn't stand the kiss ass stuff either. No matter what the issue is he has 400,000 people on his side with dark brown noses. Well why wouldn't you kiss his ass he had killer traffic for us freesite builders. But don't make any stupid mistakes or your BLACKLISTED in a instant.
You don't like this board? Then don't go there, it's everyone's choice. I'm visitting GG's board quite often and I can say most of people out there are very honest and professional (this is just my personal experience).

Are you frigen kidding me.I thought we were all adults. There is no such thing in any real thriving business called honesty. There clearly is favoritism and chauvinism, on and on. If your not in a click you clearly will not get some perks others do. oh yeah and I don't use his forum anymore BTW
