List your current method of education, what's most effective for you? Boards, blogs, hardcopy media? - GoFuckYourself.com

johnnyloadproductions · 05-12-2012, 09:44 AM

After strangers hitting me up on advice for adult I grew tired and referred them here and a couple other places. I said if you want to learn sit and read, read some more, and when you are sick take a small break and start reading again. Of course there is a lot of shit on the boards but because I'm good at making connections (several of which I'll never talk about) there is quite a bit of information I considered privileged that I know about.
With that, what sources do you use the most to gather savvy, and how much of each does it break down to.

Me:
Newspapers: 10%
Boards: 25%
blogs: 25%
books: 25%
podcasts news: 15%

Of course these vary time to time, but let's here how it varies for you.

Ignorance. After 14 years, I ignore (almost) everything anybody says. And I'm not very polite about it.

B.Barnato · 05-12-2012, 11:46 PM

Boards / Blogs with BS filter settings on high: 20%

Breaking down and analysing other sites and networks: 80%

Well obviously one of my tools is GFY...lots of people say how this board isn't good for business anymore but I disagree. There's still plenty of people here who have good advice (just have to filter through the bullshit) and it helps me keep up with new programs or if a program has stopped paying (I also watch how program owners act on here, if they're douchebags or seem retarded then I obviously want nothing to do with promoting them). GFY also provides me with entertainment, some complain about the trolls here but I find some of them (like Porno Jew who also made some good advice posts) pretty fucking hilarious and it seems like it's really only the bros who get butthurt by their comments.

--edit-- also anyone in the GFY Friendship Club is good people

totally agree, program owners and some hosting company's on here don't act like i think they should

I can tell you're not really anybody in this industry because you listed GFY and contacts made herein as one of the reasons you're a "somebody" in this business. That's laughable. Seriously, seriously laughable.

Got out now.

Let me know if you ever need a holy shower, I'll have my actor save up for more than a week and blow his load all over your face. I'm sure it'll be the best selling clip of all time! I'm down

Those aren't really methods of education. Those are all reading.

Methods would be more like… Trial and error, workshops, classes, reading, tutoring/mentoring.

candyflip · 05-13-2012, 03:54 PM

I'm started back to school online, so most of my learning is done on the internet. But I read a lot of ebooks on my tablet too. Another favorite are tutorials and learning videos.

Colmike9 · 05-13-2012, 04:08 PM

I was taught SEO in 6th grade and just use trial/error and common sense these days

keysync · 05-13-2012, 08:33 PM

Serious fucking amounts of trial and error.
Get knocked down,
Get back up and try again,
Rinse, repeat.

ottopottomouse · 05-13-2012, 09:44 PM

doing something is the best way to learn - even failing teaches you something in how to do better. endless reading is for the people who make ebook sellers rich and never get past reading and dreaming.

Bingo.

Anyone coming here with the main intent of furthering their education is going to leave with a lower IQ than when they arrived.

This is more the watercooler of our business, not the classroom.

Of course these vary time to time, but let's here how it varies for you.

You will be surprised if I tell you that forums are full of shit...

For example I can see this, when I try to find any info about doing money with cams.. there is no single guy talking about it here.

ALSO, When I try to find any MAINSTREAM REALIABLE INFO, I cant find any. For example, I work a lot in mainstream and I tried to search the forums, if anyone explain something similar as what I do, and NOBODY talks about it. Can't even find a single line about it.

I guess people doing money will not share their secrets, thats for sure.

You will only see the obvious or false/fake info on the forums. Nothing reliable that can tell you that if you do this and that, after 30 days, you will make decent money.

For example I can tell you: "Build 100 blogs with unique content and send the visitor to these 5 sponsors". Something quite easy to do, even for a starter. After 10 days of hard work, you finish the 100 blogs and submit them.

That used to make anyone money back 5 years ago. But nothing quarantees you will make a buck now, and you can easily get a 0:20,000 ratio after all that hard work... It really sucks, man. Who wants to work like a slave to make 0 bucks or even let's say 50 bucks if you are lucky, after 10 days of work?

And people... nobody quote me to say stupid things like: "It takes more than hard work to make money in adult in 2012" OR "Well, if you send 0:20,000 to a sponsor and don't make much money, you are doing something wrong"... --> Just avoid saying that BULLSHIT, people...

Come on...
