The History of GFY

My husband first registered in 2001 and had a long sleeve GFY T-Shirt sent to him by Lensman as being one of the first 50 to register on GFY.

He attended many GFY gatherings.

Recently with a few other "older" webmasters he was on a podcast reliving the history of online adult industry.

How many other places have gone by the wayside?

GONE:
PornResource
iBill
CozyFrog


DEAD:
Paul Markham: Photographer, probably one of the best ever (Heart Failure, cancer)
David Lace: Photographer, one of the largest ever collections (Heart attack)
JFPDude: Content guy, photographer (Drug Overdose)
Turboface: Traffic, scammer (Patrick Tither, suicide)
TurboAngel: Traffic, scammer (Last information was rehab, then silence)
LowKeyTx: Photographer, arrested for child p***, (James Greuel, Cancer)
GraphicsByTia: Graphics, Banners, Buttons (Suicide)

So many webmasters have died from this forum that actually helped shape the adult industry, it is now a skeleton of what it once was.

Looking at PRE 2005 webmasters, how many are actually left here on GFY?


Boneprone
Lensman
SexToyKing


anyone else left?
