Eh???? One page, or a million there's no difference. It's still only pulling one page at a time :) or no?

Letting a thread go on endlessly does tend to create problems with vBulletin, and right now it's a problem that wasn't needed. The board is still taking quite a hit from "BaiDu", over 1M (1,007,333) page requests in the last 36-hours, and that's been keeping me busy enough.

I don't have a problem with a monthly "domain thread", but I don't see the value of keeping it going forever in one thread.

God damn it people, I fucking quit. Not that you care, hell you closed one of the only relevant threads on this entire board. Back to the "Headless needs 10 listeners for his pos radio show so he can sell some $5 ads" threads. Have fun everyone, I'm out.

Taboo, you should really create a one page active "thread" on your servers.
It would get way more book markers and content added. Simplicity goes a long way.

I don't have a problem with a monthly "domain thread", but I don't see the value of keeping it going forever in one thread.

I checked that thread regularly for both historical and current domain prices, to assess the value of my own domains and ones I'm considering buying.

I'm not one to complain, it's not my board, but that thread had value beyond frequent bumpage. At least for me as a noob domainer.

Well, as you fellow domainers know, there's so much data out there to compile, analyze and discuss... and since our thread is gone, I setup a very barebones site at http://www.DomainNews.com -unfortunately, it's very one-way now, not a BOARD, more of a low-key blog. But since I already collect lots of data I need to pour it into somewhere, so that'll be it's home from now on... this way no one will close the door on a valuable resource. check it out and send me emails if you have data to share, Qs, As, etc... I already emailed a few buddies and associates who have always wanted to help me turn DomainNews.com into a REAL news source, so from humble beginnings... let's see where it takes us. Most of the domainers I know are always awake digging thru drop lists, mining whois, or just plain buzzed and registering crazy domains that we all regret the next day, like my EatYAK.com or Halcyon & Tassy's GreasedFist.com :1orglaugh - so i'll be posting to the news page very irregularly when it comes to time of day, but regularly when it comes to frequency. Already got a few interviews lined up with some key players in the industry, some of them hate me, some of them like me, but they all want to promote their own agenda and I'll let them use DomainNews.com to do so. Plus, I've got some great adventures to share... as do most of you.

:thumbsup

I still love GFY though.

I am watching that situation closely. I feel that "outsourced" posting is in violation of GFY rule 6, especially if it is ONLY for spamming sig views. :disgust

Give some people a little power and they turn into retards.

From the TexasDreams explanation, he's a bit clueless if you ask me.

Yeah, we have all been watching their shit for 4 months. Over 20,000 useless posts between all those guys and you decide to kill one of the best business threads here.
Multiple threads have been raised about it(klik) and this is the first time I believe a Mod has even responded.

Killing good stuff on the board but letting these twats fly? :error

Anyway, have a swell day :) I know modding this place can be a turd

Shame. Was a thread that actually was worth reading. Not many of them around these days. Taboo, please start another!

The only really worthwhile thread and it gets closed - unfortunately to help in the board software????? Unless its being deleted from the database it sure doesnt seem to make a difference one way or another
More importantly - most of the "bumps" were useful information - not sig spots so I guess I understand the mods closing it

Damn shame

I agree it was a good business thread (which in itself is refreshing around here), TD you really should reopen the original!

nah, there's no need now, especially with my "new & improved" posting schedule on http://DomainNews.com. I post much more now than I did before, because I didn't want to get accused of bumping too much.. hard to believe, huh? Check out the site/blog, it already has plenty of updates within last 48 hours since my thread was closed... I actually have TexasDreams to thank for giving me the final push to launch the site. :thumbsup TexasDreams was right, only a small handful of GFYers actually read the thread, some people thought it was a place to list domains FOR SALE, instead of understanding it's true purpose. HELL, if Lensman & TaxesDreams had let me continue on my path, that thread would be become the longest and most viewed thread in GFY history (business-related). Guys, keep in mind, it lasted over a YEAR. LOL.

check out my new site for yourself: http://DomainNews.com - perfect domain, no? it's a very simple, crisp layout... no bells or whistles... and of course there's no board... I'm not a damn fool.

and Vicki, thanks for your support... I really mean it. Check out my site and email me if you think I should add any features. I like hearing from readers and incorporating their ideas.

It was one of the few threads that I continually come back to, even years later, to look at the recent postings. The way it stayed relevent was amazing, especially for GFY, and a valuable tool for all domain enthusiasts. You will be missed, thread, you will be missed :(

:thumbsup but don't talk about me like I'm dead or something. LOL. I've got plenty of people already agreeing to send me reports to add to the new site. We plan to stay "relevant" and if you thought a year was long... wait'll see how long i keep this one going :)
