I didn't realize that the average GFYer was making so much money! I guess those 15 year olds, with the hand-me-down PCs, living in their parents basements, make more than I had ever thought!
I rarely post on GFY as I cannot handle a place where Post Count is considered the measurement of success. I even had a guy call me a Newbie a couple of years ago, and tell me that I had better get some experience in the business before making posts on GFY!
We have used GFY when looking for graphic work and the like, and I do use Post Count in my judgement in hiring. If their post counts are high, I don't hire them! My attitude is if you are sitting on a damn board all day, with a post count of 25,000, you're not really serious about actual work. I also won't hire someone who sells their Signature. My reasoning is that if your good at what you do, and successful, you would use that Sig for yourself. But hey, that's just me
I would take the slam as a compliment. At least they are thinking about you
