I attempted to establish myself on WF by posting constructive posts that I thought would help others. Of the 3 that I posted, 2 were deleted. Realized that my only role there would be going around contradicting all the gurus, because everything they posted was bullshit. Some of it wasn't even self-serving. It was just wrong and stupid. THere was no way I was going to survive on that forum for anything length of time, and it was either quit going there or get my account banned, so I quit.
Every once in a while I go there and try to read. I really WANT to find something there; maybe something other than what I find here, but I can't bear to read that shit for very long. The outrage swells and I have the feeling that I MUST post something, even if it gets me banned, and then I click out and don't go back for a few months.
They give each other blow-jobs over there, too. One guru says some shit that's wrong, and then another guru will follow-up and reinforce the wrongness.
Guru A: "The most important thing I've found to get a website ranked on Google is to ping not only the home page, but also all the inner pages. This also helps to get the website to rank."
Guru B: "That's right, Bob. Good advice. A lot of people forget to ping the inner pages, and that's why their results aren't what they expected."
And then all the newbs fall on their faces at the enormous power of this new-found wisdom. No one ever stands up and says what a load of shit it is.
