KB,
KidSlick made few right moves and made few mistakes.

Right Moves:
1) knowing that he has no personality of his own,
he didn't interfere much in board business

2) he built organization within to mostly benefit Him,
I respect that!

big names were sending traffic in exchange for...titles!

Excellent play on human emotions and...
"Vanity is my favorit Sin!"
(---Devil)
;-)))

3) he sold it on the TOP.

Mistakes:
=============

1) growing internals beyond his needs and running payroll/office expences which finally killed his buyer

2) G R E E D
placements auctions proved to be the VERY bad idea
;-))

Damn.. i figured Sykk woulda said SOMETHING by now!!

TheEnforcer Making Bank- make more bank with us in 2002!

ok, so 1 board 5 years ago was about business....
******************************

YNOT from 1996 (Dec) to 1997 (October) was all about business.

it went downhill from there...and that's where I understood one very important thing,
Serge

This is a DAMN good game. Philly is doing quite well.


TheEnforcer Making Bank- make more bank with us in 2002!

Serge,

pics of business associates, and people you cut checks to monthly are different than putting up innocent kid's faces that have NO IDEA what their parents do for a living..

I don't believe Kid Slick "RICK" intended the YNOT board to become Romper Room...Although that isn't a bad idea either.

Maybe YNOT should run DAY CARE center, they might be better equipped :-))
KB

as for "freakshow" boards...I remember a certain board that was dubbed a "trainwreck" and a "circus" yet still pulled in advertiser, bums in seats, and even a little cash... ;)))
*********************************

hahahahaha,
I think Fay still has egg on her face for it

Serge

Anyone else here think it ISN'T a coincidence that as soon as we start talking about freaks Sykkboy shows up??

oops, as always (most of the time), you're right....

ok, now back to explaining to newbies why a hun listing with 50K clicks and only 26 clicks to a sponsor is a bad thing.... ;)))
SykkBoy how much bank are you making?

It doesn't. That was my point.

does GFY offers prizes for postings or is it PornCity?

were they ever really about business?

SykkBoy,
YES, they were....

THE VERY FIRST WEBMASTER BOARD run by Cliffie,
was ALL about Business.
Webpower Business as a matter of fact.
1996, October,
no fluff, but LOTS of piss and guess who was right in the middle defending Hadhazy?

KB,
your post insites unhealthy ICQ's

"a thing came to mind...

i would agree with you about design

look at stupid ynot... changed their design already 4 times over a year
and no posts, no business

so serge, congrats, my stubborn attitude lets you win ;-)))))

Serge

hahaha KB

I hadn't made it over there for a bit....

but maybe this is what webmaster boards are really for? were they ever really about business? I think they have always been more for getting known to do business...
SykkBoy how much bank are you making?

Oh and Sykkboy.....

read YNOT, it's even more chock full of business...between pics of webmasters' kids and breakfast foods, I don't know how they stay so in the "KNOW" about the industry :-))
KBumble Because we have all jacked off our mothers Mademoiselle magazine...

and how does it differ from here?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

You took the words out of my mouth, Serge ;)

looking back through Oprano today, I see over 60% of posts about football, yet on GFY...one thread about it? ;))

of course now they have a database error...so maybe it's delaying football posts.....
SykkBoy how much bank are you making?

Well as a Cleveland Brown fan for my entire life with a period of 4 years when I was a "A man without an NFL franchise"

It's good to finally feel re-acclimated to the old saying

So, if you love the gfy model so much why don't you offer prizes for posting? Offer a $5 tshirt and you'll get people to post 100 times a day in order to get it even though they have absolutely nothing to say. What's wrong with that?

would my best buddy 12 Clicks,

post there if it wasn't the BEST and most insightful board out there????

If Lenseman was involved in actual running of it,
it would have been even better!


Serge

gfy isn't a board, it's a freak show and a prime example of why offering prizes for posting is a bad idea.

Hmm.. well.. Eagles are in Rams territory!!

no doubt the Jews do run the media. No conspiracy tho, just good at that kind of thing.

i read Neil Gabler's book The Jews of Hollywood years ago, they invented movies. Mostly because they weren't wanted elsewhere so they invented an industry of their own.

serge..there is a remote mardi gras parade that is happening on super bowl sunday. crazy

Right now, and for the last 4 hours or so, there is a parade going right down st charles past my house.


grimm (Blow Me)

Pitt does need a new kicker but that one wasn't his fault.


TheEnforcer Shouldn't you be Making Bank?

Serge, come on keep up... :-)
Mike AI Super Content, coming for the Super Bowl!

yup Fold was right. NE is too hyper, taking emotional penalties.

now the game begins!!!!


mutt

holy shit. LOL
grimm (Blow Me)

Pitt needs a new kicker.... Pittsburg making a comeback. If they score here it will put pressure on NE.

Pats are in situation that Oakland was last week.

Good game...

Fold you are the wise one!

Pats are making too many penalties. They had 1 last week, like 12 so far this game.
Mike AI

...and the most important question:
if 3rd quarter is not over, what if SuperBowl and Mardigras coinside in time space continuum?
Serge

I don't get it...
so is the game over or not?

id 3rd quarter over?
Serge

It's not over yet.... but they really need to turn it around fast!


TheEnforcer Shouldn't you be Making Bank?

u guys are burying them pretty early, 10 minutes left in the 3rd quarter.

pittsburg looks lost. that would be the most amazing story if NE makes the SB.

I am pulling for the Steelers, but I have to say the Pats maybe a team of destiny.... things keep falling the right way for them... amazing!

Meni, you coming to NO if Pats come to SuperBowl?


Mike AI

had the pats +5 first half, under 18.5

but, i had pittsburg in a pickem in the first quarter, over 7. pushed on the 7.

I still have pitt -8 for the game though, and over 37.5.

i just hope the second game is a blowout:)

cordell stewart looks like a scared kid in there. so much for the confident leader.

Pats played a hell of a first half.

woohooo
can' the stellers score 15 points today?
NOPE
Meni (The Golden Tongue)

Yeah Pats havee the best 2d string QB around! Steelers better step up!

And Bledsoe just threw a touchdown!!

Nice audition for next year if he leaves!!

TheEnforcer Shouldn't you be Making Bank?

OH shit! Brady's hurt!!!



TheEnforcer Shouldn't you be Making Bank?

Well.. Philly - St. Louis opened the season and Philly lost in OT. If I remember correctly they blew a field goal that would have won it in regulation. So they CAN hang with St. Louis.
