What does not having a sig have to do with anything? I don't have a sig. So what?

Learn to link, newbie. Oh, and stop using gfy.com. Just newbies use that shortened crap.

:1orglaugh

Sig.

Actually nothing really, just askin. I mean 30,000 posts, wouldnt you want a sig to promote your biz? Maybe im wrong

AMAJOE is not the only one who's made this point of reference. Robbie, among other countless established full time adult industry others have as well over the years.

While I am not speaking for Joe. The point, I believe, is that if you are a serious adult industry person (i.e. business owner/full time). You are at minimum flying your contact info in sig. If not some reference to who you are, what you do, or something you promote.

If you're not. While not always true. More often then not those people tend to be hobbyists, part timers, trolls, and what not. Historically speaking.

Many of us are exclusively webmasters and have absolutely nothing to offer other webmasters. I'm not trying to sell anything to webmasters. I could put my sites in my sig but why? They're meant for surfers, not webmasters.

Frankly I have infinitely more respect for people who don't have a sig rather than sticking a sponsor's banner down there hoping to make some chump change from a webmaster referral.

I am convinced that candyflip is Big_D.

It depends on how you use the boards. A BROgram owner will tell you that the industry boards are tool in the arsenal to marketing and promotion. I am paraphrasing, but that's essentially the meat of the point.

I do not own a program, but make a lot of money off the boards. As those I am partnered with could easily verify. Whether experienced, or not. People use the boards for tracking down deals, content they want, scripts hosting among many other things.

It is a social outlet for many. Some of us get a lot of current events from the boards. A lot of use make money off the boards. In the past month I have made more than 90% of GFY will all year. Between site sales, hosting, and content deals. So for me, it is worth the hassles I deal with.

The boards are a tool in the arsenal. But it depends on if you are a B2B or what your role is in the industry. If you market to surfers, then you're right. Flying your shit may not be of use. But for Joe or Loch as content brokers for example, the hosting companies, the billing processors, affiliate programs... the board and sig is a useful way to get business and promote your wares.

Why? I'm full time. This is all I do 12+ hours a day every day. I am as serious as one can be. There's still nothing I need other webmasters to contact me about. That doesn't mean I am hiding necessarily, I just don't want to be bothered.

When I did put my ICQ in my sig I was contacted by all sorts of retards wanting everything from advice to traffic, loans and occasionally someone I pissed off wanting to tell me to eat the peanuts out of their poop; and how can I forget to mention the seemingly endless stream of affiliate reps who couldn't find their own ass with both hands.

Admittedly I am a serious antisocial misanthrope. Maybe too much but I am what I am. There's not a single person on GFY whose opinion is worth a squirt of piss to me. If I need something from someone, I will contact them.

Oh, and it may look like I am defending Candyflip but as even he will tell you I have been one of his most vocal opponents for years. He can lick my furry beanbag.

True. Most of us who've been around know you are a full timer.

However, you are not going to be typically B2B like AmaJoe/Loch/konrad/SiteDepth/FletchXXX/Prezzz/MOJO/Way3/Zombaio/Verotel nor are you a BROgram looking for affiliates.

So you're right. In your case, it makes no sense to fly a sig.

If you dont have a sig and reference it 50 times a day like a outsourced indian on meth then you aren't a serious industry person. You heard it here first. :1orglaugh

Good to know that there are rules to follow regarding our forum signatures, in order to be taken seriously as a serious industry person. Some of you take this way too seriously. Get real already. Candyflip is in the industry, has made a ton of posts, and has been around for years. To pretend otherwise, is to show how clueless you really are.

Sig.

Again, it depends on your use of the forum(s) and if you are B2B or not.

This board's intent was not to be a surfer forum for fry cooks.

:2 cents:

You're one of the dumbest newbies ever. :2 cents: The only reason anyone would ever question whether candyflip was "in the industry" is because he made them cry. Everyone else who has been here awhile knows better.

Hmmm... I see trying to have any type of rationale discussion about the O.P. and his point of reference with you is a pointless enterprise.

Carry on with your idiocy. Good day.

cflip is pretty cool. no complaints here. carry on >

always best to try to get along with everyone imho.

Funny I point out that barefootsies and amaconent are total douchebags at some point in the recent past and they spend some of their time trying to figure out who I am or what I do. I generally call it like I see it and it's obvious some of you don't like to hear the truth about yourselves. Lol.

As pointed out by the one voice of reason, babaganoosh...who is is definitely not my biggest fan, I don't have shit to sell anyone here at the moment...so no real business in my sig. I'm a big fan of the adage "don't shit where you eat" and for me GFY is nothing more than nice clean shitter I can dirty up with a big nasty turd.

I've been in this business for more than 10 years now and while things have slowed down and I've branched out into other things...I still have multiple interests in adult, these days it's mobile.

I've helped plenty of people here with a wide variety of stuff. I'm not here spamming my shit, trying to be cool because I was a loser groing up or selling stolen content like some folks here. You don't like what I have to say, that's fine...but I'm not gonna stop putting my opinion out here on GFY if I think you suck. :winkwink:

That's funny.

Especially counting he number of threads available to anyone who runs a search on candyflip's history here. I guess stolen designs and such are not theft unless it's content. You gotta love it.

I was a thief 8 years ago. But not anymore.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :thumbsup

My past doesn't change your present. I'm not the one who was here trying to sell content you had no rights to be selling...just a few months back.

As brujah pointed out...you all are just butthurt because I have no problem pointing out that youare a douchebag or content thief or in your case both.

candy please post a picture of the garbage plate. I am starving. Need inspiration.

Candy Flip were a British electronic dance band associated with the Madchester music scene in the early 1990s. Candy Flip were named after the slang term for the practice of taking ecstasy and LSD at the same time.

i have nothing against barefootsies, but it seems like every thread he makes in the buy and sell reminds me of don lapre making money package.

candy, go back to your old avatar man ....back then I feared you :(

Here are all the details sly...I can send you the spices to make your own sauce if you want to try it.

Thank god we all grow up at some point at put stupid shit like that behind us. But yes...this be where the nick originated.

hahahahhahha - i think of the garbage plate too all the time. i would love to open up a garbage plate diner. running restaurants is pure hell i hear tho.

Not sure, but he seems like a cool dood on the forum here.

You mean the gun, glasses, parrot, killer hairstyle and gorgeous wife don't scare you?

I'd love to have one last ride, believe me I think about it a lot.... but 25 years is a pretty big span since the last ride. Frankly not sure I'm up to it.

But yeah man.... those were good times.

WTF did I ever do to you.. You dont even know me. I was just inquring about what services you do as Im changing aspects of my buisness and im looking for various people to assist me . Guees people are right about you. Have a good day.

I opened a deli/sandwich shop a few years back. While it was a fun business it was hell to operate. I managed to sell off to some other sucker.

I'm in the process of finding a location to open up a cupcake shoppe. A good friend of ours opened a location about 4 months ago and have sold almost 30k cupcakes in that time...at $3.25 a piece...open only from 5pm to 11pm. They can't run a second place but the demand is there so we are going to franchise so to speak.

You didn't do anything to me joe...but that doesn't stop me from having an opinion about you. I just call 'em like I see em. I didn't say your content sucks or that your business is shit. I've just based my opinion of you on what you do and say here...just like you seem to have no problem doing with me.

If you wanted to do business you'd have just hit me up. Instead you start a thread that is an obvious attempt to stir shit up. Which leads us back to my opinion of you...

Me too...but I'm afraid I couldn't hack it these days myself. :1orglaugh

FYI...I do have a sig with contact info it just doesn't show up when posting from my phone. They need to fix that shit.

This was in no way a thread to stir things up. I never start shit with people that dont have it coming to them. As you see most people I ever had issues with are gone or banned. Go figure huh. I havent been banned in my entire time here.
I apologize to you if you took this thread the wrong way. I shoulda said hit me up like you mentioned, so if you dont mind.. hit me up.
