I do not think there is one answer to verify who is / is not in this industry.
 

I believe that if the mods do want to verify everyone, then many little things could help.

My idea would be for each gfy webmaster to place one of their websites under their username. Then we can see which network they own and determine credibility that way.

Of course, we need more little things that could help verify webmasters.


Q: If this board does decide to verify everyone, what are some other little ways they can use to help their accuracy?

~Ray

who gives a shit. it's just a message board. and some of the biggest scammers and thieves have been well known bros so knowing who runs what means shit.

One of their websites? There are lots of shooters and talent and other people in this biz that don't have websites - all you keyboard kings seem to think that this place is meant only for you...you're like little kids that don't want to share your ball.

Is that a serious concern or you're just kidding??

It is very much possible to be in the business without owning a website or operating one. And I'm sure many people do not list their websites for fear that people will copy them.

Anyways, it's pretty easy to point out the people that are a waste of space here.

how is a content writer without a website going to verify? someone who took a break for adult but still contributes knowledge? a total noob trying to learn? on and on ....

chris mallick could verify easily though.

we should do tv shows, cameras will record 24hours of each member life, and then we will run pool on gfy to determine is it real or fake

dna, blood sample, lie detector - all to stop people from criticizing me on the internet, wah wah ...

It's just the topic of the day.

If we have to jump through hoops to be here, we might as well determine how many hoops and the extent of each.

I do not think any green or older / established nicks will have to verify anything.

I think gfy may make newb applicants prove a few things before their account is approved. I do not think it will affect any of us.

how big would gfy be then? Maybe a billion viewers a month... peeping in on adult webmasters. punker barbie would be a millionaire in 6 months. Especially since she seems to enjoy bikinis.


If snookie can, punker b can!

You could use someone like this:

True enough.

If people wanted to disclose all of their sites, they would.

I am copying ~Ray's matrix as we speak

if you are relying on a forum to make or break your success then maybe you need to reevaluate if you are in the right line of work..

if you don't know how to find and reach out to someone that you wish to do business with outside of GFY then i think its time you consider a 9-5 mainstream job where your only job description is to show up and punch a timeclock.

the fact is, the glory days are over. its not easy money anymore and you actually have to work to make a living.

getting rid of the trolls and surfers is not going to bring back the people that actually have good business ideas.. they are busy implementing those ideas and they sure as shit are not going to share them with you... :2 cents:

I think GFY should hire a hot chick to help collect sperm samples from all members.

No need for a witch hunt. Eric has already stated that he will ban "surfers" when discovered. Those of you that are so concerned about "surfers", this is your opportunity to do exactly what you want.

1) Spot surfer.

2) Investigate surfer to the best of your ability.

3) Report to Eric. Done.

A mechanism is already in place. Use it or shut up.

i surfed ehow.com yesterday...

it was huge...

nice hollow barrels and not too crowded..
