Sorry GFY admins - But I disagree about your policy regarding 'Dark Posts'...
 
Now, I know the first rule of 'DP' is not to talk about 'DP' but why be so secretive??? Theres always been a big inside joke that when you get to 10,000 posts and go green, you get access to special forums etc... lol n stuff. But when I hit hit the 20,000 post mark, and got 'DP' access... Well I was shocked!

OK, so what are 'Dark Posts'? Well, I'll admit they are are a well kept secret within GFY culture, but I simply just cant agree with the idea... Basically when you hit 20,000 posts you get the ability to see certain posts in amongst the main forum, that are not available for others to see...

Only these with 'DP' access can see them in amongst the other posts and as such - Are the only ones who can reply and interact in the posts...

Think of it like 'Dark Matches' in WWE... Certain matches that are witnessed by the paying audience, live in the arena, and not televised to the general public... Well its like that on GFY... When you hit 20,000 you get DP access to these 'special posts'...

You can tell its a 'DP' because its very dark text, on a black background, and you have to highlight the text to read it.... But why? I can understand that it could be to 'keep the trolls out' - fair enough - But just don't let them reply? Simple as - The info shared in a 'DP' should be available to help EVERYONE to make money. Not just those of us who have wasted a lot of time to get a high post count...

EXAMPLE: There was a post regarding how to convert cams the other day - Step by Step - Very easy to do. Just a simple thing that most people had not realised... Great money to be made - So why not share?

Please rethink this policy. Its only fair that EVERYONE should get access to the same info - Not only the privileged few (Like Myself) who didn't need, want or ask for it... ????

Sorry - If this disclosure of the 'behind the scenes' info gets me banned, then so be it - I didn't ASK for 'DP' I dint want 'DP' and I will never have a 'DP'...

Wow, thanks for your honesty CS :thumbsup

EddyTheDog 05-01-2014 07:16 AM

You know how paranoid I get - Are any of these 'DP' about me - I demand the right of reply!!.

My human rights are being violated.....

blackmonsters 05-01-2014 07:16 AM

Cool,
Hard to believe that a board moving this slow would hide threads.

pinkz 05-01-2014 07:54 AM

Well going by my post count and length of service I should be able to see these Dark Posts by the time I'm dead!

Invite only would be a more suitable option imo.

CaptainHowdy 05-01-2014 08:05 AM

That is some heavy mental poo ...

seeandsee 05-01-2014 08:14 AM

Dark poo is much better

I agree - Why not share?

However, I've had a few nasty PMs from a few members, regarding me spilling the beans, so I'll prob lie low for a while...

:(

That's because you are not in the club. You don't have enough posts. The board flows like Niagara Falls all day every day when you can see all of the hidden posts.

Start posting! There is bidnezz to be done!

Just an FYI: I got "DP" access prior to the new rules, so I was grandfathered in.

edgeprod 05-01-2014 08:47 AM

Haha, oh my god, this is hilarious .. I wish I'd thought of it first. :1orglaugh

This would have driven VenusBlogger to the insane asylum.

blackmonsters 05-01-2014 08:47 AM

Is CS really banned or just a joke in his avatar?

mikesouth 05-01-2014 08:50 AM

At the rate i post i will never be in that club and honestly I could give a fuck. if GFY want to perpetuate the bro club thing go for it...Its a club I hope Im never in and certainly wouldnt join

It's probably a good thing you can't see. You would not believe the things that are said about you.

Dark Poo indicates a high protein diet.
Just sayin'.

Was the OP actually banned Eric? If so, why?

Harmon 05-01-2014 10:46 AM

Of course he wasn't banned. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

wehateporn 05-01-2014 11:04 AM

This is what happens to those who speak the truth, CS was too honest for his own good, he was a key character on the board, won't be the same without him.

Last time I spoke out against the Bro-Club and their secret ways I had five large Tumblr networks disappear within the next 60 minutes.

WDF 05-01-2014 11:11 AM

Hmmmm Interesting Thread.

First time for everything as they say, I'm off to a different type of DP to employ Indians to post for me :thumbsup

The Porn Nerd 05-01-2014 11:33 AM

If all this were actually true then this thread would be deleted toot suite, no?

(Or is it 'toot sweet'?)

Difficult one, they do want to encourage people to post so I'd expect it to stay up for a bit, but at the same time they've made a clear example of CS :2 cents:

WDF 05-01-2014 11:45 AM

From an onlookers perspective it makes the average reader wonder what benefit or reward could come from it and would promote board activity.

On the other hand having been a part of many online communities and knowing about rank/post symbolism and it's importance to most members it is not out of the ordinary to have hidden posts or forum sections.

Either way it stimulates activity to leave this post up for the time being from an Admin position.

MrTrollkien 05-01-2014 11:46 AM

Rip pooman.

EddyTheDog 05-01-2014 11:51 AM

CS hasn't actually been banned has he?..

I assumed it was just a joke?....

I thought it was a joke too, but I've since had it confirmed :2 cents:

WDF 05-01-2014 11:58 AM

Most Unfortunate, but it does lend a great deal of credibility to the thread topic/top post.

wehateporn 05-01-2014 12:27 PM

Let's hope CS isn't banned for life, but I guess the GFY admins have to be sure they can trust him, so maybe he'll be left on a final warning

Shit long and prosper dude :thumbsup

The Porn Nerd 05-01-2014 01:09 PM

Well I, for one, want to get to 20k posts so I can do some 'real business' here on GFY. I actually do work with a few people I've met here on GFY and continue to advertise here for affiliates but sometimes the trolls and ax-grinders can get annoying.

But let's see here....about 1/3 of the way there (7k posts as of this writing), almost five years so far.....ok so I can expect to see these hidden posts in about 9 years, or in 2023-ish. LOL

Can't wait!! :)

SekobA 05-01-2014 01:13 PM

20.000 poo for DP

deltav 05-01-2014 01:54 PM

I actually thought CS was 100% kidding and just starting some shit.

Overall though there's nothing wrong with having private sections of B2B boards. But as pinkz mentioned, you'd think an invite-only setup would work better than strict 20k posts - I'd rather see fewer posts here if it meant sifting out the drama & noise in favor of business-only stuff.

bean-aid 05-01-2014 02:05 PM

Fairly certain he's not banned. Banned users are ripped of their green status I believe. I have been wrong about at least 1 thing in past though.

baddog 05-01-2014 02:53 PM

As much as I like CS, that was stepping over the line. The only question is, how long should the ban last?

Lichen 05-01-2014 02:58 PM

Lame troll attempt.

Lichen 05-01-2014 02:59 PM

he's not banned, he just changed his tagline

When you get banned you lose your green nick color.

He just removed his avatar and changed tagline.

He was not supposed to talk about it and can't believe he did. Maybe he will learn his lesson :( I have been working hard for DP access.
