Proper Etiquette for Adding GFY Members to IM & Social Media

Hey guys this has been annoying the fuck out of me lately. I dig connecting with GFY'ers on IM or Social Media but hate when they just add me generically and just say "hey". For instance when I post in "buy/sell" or "now hiring" forums I am asking to be contacted via Skype there are usually a handful of users contacting me about this one item but if I have posted multiple items and I'm also posting on other forums and I've got customers and models adding me and sending messages it makes it hard to decipher who is who.

When adding a GFY'er to your IM or Social Media I'm suggesting that you:
  • Establish who you are with a name or screen name - "Hey I'm srockhard"
  • State which site you viewed the thread - "saw your thread on GFY about your amazing website"
  • Provide a thread link (https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=909637)
  • State your response - "I think I could help you monetize your site bro"

...carry on
