90% Of this board has no idea what they are doing

The worst part is the blatant oversells to the newbies who don't know better.

Well, funny how in the thread Alexa points out, someone quoted this
gem from the OP:

And he calls the forum junk? Well no wonder with answers like that crap!

Here was my response to him, obviously ignored by him:

So we have the OP ranting about BS, but goes around posting
BS? That it is rich!

Yes I am sure whatever you post is always 100 percent gospel
I will remember that when I need a guru to ask

Yah you are right..

I hope you are not from the Philippines coz I am. Maybe you're right that most of us here are newbies but hey that's what this forum is for.

Okay, you have your point there. It's time for you to share some valuable thoughts.

I've spent about two months in this forum now. To be honest it seems to be poorly moderated and there are a lot of "i agree" or "me too" posts which are simply frustrating to trawl through when you are subscribed to what was originally a thread with good potential for knowledge sharing.
There is also lot of people who quote an entire thread when adding a "you're right" response which is also quite annoying.

However, there is a strong backbone of members within here who speak from experience and don't speak in definitives (which is refreshing because no-one really can when it comes to SEO)! These are the people who I enjoy reading contributions from.

Everyone has to start from somewhere and I really don't mind if someone comes in with a basic question assuming they have first done a bit of research around the subject/question. It's good to help out and increase the overall knowledge of people on this board so I don't like to see the OP coming out and slagging off "90% of this board". Specifically when he himself comes out with such a disappointing contribution such as the domain related thread he opened: Are info and co Domains worth it?

Speaking as an authority when there are no grounds to is a contribution worse than spam in a forum and the OP should take a close look at themselves and their actions before slagging off others who come to discuss and learn.

I think, and I could be disparaged for saying so but whatever, there comes a time when your reading interests might fall outside of the WF for low level seo/marketing conversations. Obviously i'm not talking about the 50k foot "what is pagerank???" discussions, but instead more along the lines of "Given a multi tiered linkwheel setup, if I pass enough link juice to my money site via these 2 tools, is it unecessary for me to focus on any deep level link building via xyz?" or "index versus crawl rate..you decide the importance" or maybe "active marketing techniques found via outside the box..what works for you?".

I'm not saying these discussions don't exist here, but there are other forums outside of the WF that cater to more experienced marketers and webmasters. That's all I'm saying.

So hit the report button!!!! People, you really have to get into the habit of doing that when you see stuff like this - no wonder the forum keeps filling with crap. The mods are really good - the post and the user will be gone in minutes.

I can't agree with you. You can learn a lot here.

Yes, it's true there are a lot of newbies, spammers and trolls, but you can even learn something from them - what you shouldn't do.

This forum is great place for learning new things from different people.
