Finally we agree on something.

I've been saying this for years. Make different forums for different things - one for pornographers, one for porn fans, one for politics, one for general bullshit.... then allow us to petition for new forums.... Do we have a dozen Mustang owners, or Jeep owners? Great, make a section for cars and in the new section make an area for Mustang and Jeep owners.

Many 'mainstream' Forums do exactly this, especially music and movie ones.

GFY should ABSOLUTELY create a social media platform where we porners can 'tweet'/post our stuff. Especially since places like Tumblr and Facebook are banning porn and even nudity. BUT - and this is a huuuuge giant festering BUTT - only allow registered and pre-approved GFY members post on the new social media platform otherwise it will be Spam City and help no one.

Dont get me wrong, i find Theo,Kat, Roy and Panos to be great people, but i dont think they read this board at all.

The advertising revenue is so small compared to what they make with the trade shows that GFY was probably just thrown into the deal as a bonus.

P_RABID 06-26-2019 08:29 PM

Maybe this place can finally get the facelift it deserves, Wish luck to Theo Sapoutzis and Panos Sapoutzis on the new purchase, the Greek boys will fix this place up. :pimp

There were actually plans to do this exact thing back when I was a moderator. I want to go farther with it than that.
Make gfy a mecca of everything sexual, dirty raunchy and perverse. Open to everyone of a consenting age

Of course I like them all - add Eric and Myjah as well - but it is very obvious that none of them gives a shit about this place anymore, you are correct on this.

And yeah, I can hear Eric saying "then don't come here" or "use the ignore function" or "don't be a sissy" - but I think I spent enough of my time on here for the last 15 years to be allowed to post my opinion about what this place has become. And my opinion is that GFY is by now very close to stormfront.org. And this sucks.


And PS: As an advertiser I would not spend a single penny on a place where members fantasize about killing innocent people and it has zero consequences.

You just want to silence everyone that disagrees with you.

Oh you don't want illiterate, violent 3rd worlders to come to your country? YOU = NAZI!

Oh you like Trump? YOU = NAZI!

Oh you don't believe there are 97 genders? YOU = NAZI!

Want to kick illegals out of your country? YOU = NAZI!

Oh you don't want some mentally ill man who thinks he's a woman showering or peeing next to your 13 yr old daughter? YOU = NAZI!

Stating FBI crime statistics? YOU = NAZI!

And on and on and on.

xanadu 06-27-2019 06:59 AM

thanks to all for the kind words and the ideas. Keep them coming, the best is yet to come!

We owe to this forum a lot, sometimes we post, sometimes just lurk, as many others I am sure they do too. This industry wouldn't be the same without it.

Things will change here A LOT ;)

Do you remember anything of what i suggested 9 years ago on TES? :1orglaugh

xanadu 06-27-2019 07:36 AM

hahaha i do but i think more radical changes are needed now.

Get Xenforo installed, much better UI and experience

xanadu 06-27-2019 07:51 AM

will make a thread for suggestions/ideas soon. Luca from the things you suggested the 3rd was the best and we will probably go that direction.

As for xenforo i have mixed feelings, moved a big sports forum on it from vbulletin and the result was not what i expected. Better UI and experience, but less engagement somehow.

Mickey_ 06-27-2019 07:58 AM

Add the simple change of @ mentions paired with email notifications and watch engagement skyrocket ;)

xanadu 06-27-2019 08:03 AM

thanks a great idea Mickey, on the to do list for sure ;)

None of them read the boards. This has been the problem for some time now. No one has cared about GFY since Lensman left.

Hopefully they'll read the board and take notice of the alt-right hate fake nic troll and deactivate all the accounts he's bought or hacked here. He's driven so many industry people off this board with his hate.

The adult industry is made up of all types and having a board like GFY where anyone who's not an alt-right straight white male is relentlessly attacked daily doesn't make for good business, not to mention it's against GFY's TOS.

Let's hope the GFY TOS begin to be enforced again :thumbsup

Agreed, he only posts one liners in discust of what ever is being discussed. Never actually adding anything, like American politics when he can't even tell you why Americans drive so many pick ups.

If they were to put me in charge, first thing would be to put all the non sense posting on alert and then make everyone in the adult webmaster section prove they are or have been in the industry at some point or they would be gone forever!
They open up other sections for the general public of the age of consent and make this a fun place where being censored wouldn't be the main point of interest.
Internal apps for dating, sharing ideas and political discussion. There are so many possibilities.

You are top notch (in your own fucked up head)

ianmoone332000 07-03-2019 03:29 AM

Hey Xanadu. Your only allowed 1 profile on this forum and it has clearly been abused over the years with multiple fake nics. Iv asked Eric to put a list together of what nics are the same person and release it before he goes. If he is unable to do it, will you guys do it when yous take over?. Its out of control and its time for honesty. Wipe the slate with a fresh start etc

this will be fixed for sure. There is a possibility that the forum will become private.

not 100% sure, but I think I know what are you talking about.... We are thinking of making a new section for companies that dont pay affiliates etc.

Good stuff. How can we trust anyone on the board when they say something then use fake profiles to back it up as legitimate. A real board cant work like that. Name them and put an end to it

bloggerz 07-03-2019 05:32 AM

Well glad this place will get cleaned up! Well hopefully it will let's see.

Really tired of reading shit that's not even adult biz related. Let's start by bringing back JDL

Let me point out to the post on the previous page https://gfy.com/22490711-post25.html
Probably was hard to spot in the middle of the page :helpme

I'm just curious why that particular thread was deleted and then requested to be removed from Google Cache.

There is no point in him being here. He made money being a sigwhore and long gone are the days where you could pay your rent posting here.
