    I can tell you this. In late 2006 I stopped coming here because the Google thread was loaded with bogus posts and spam ( much like it is today). In 2006 I got sick of seeing when's the next pr update posts ( again much as it is today). I have grown since then tremendoulsly as an SEO. Why am I back? Simply because I can learn here. I have learned to read between the lines. I can also teach people here. Sometimes I will post on a forum and people do not agree with me, well that is the beuty of a forum. If we all agreed this forum would be awful boring now wouldn't it. I come here to see what others are ding and maybe discover things I didn't know, new technology, new idea's etc.. Do I make good money online sure I do. Do I need DP you bet I do.

    I keep one thing in mind, helping others and watching some of the newb threads does a couple of things. It reminds me of when I first started out and the questions I had. It also keeps some of the basics fresh in my head. It is the basics that keep us going. The tricks and teqniques are just an added benefit.

    I actually remember when you started. I have been away from DP for 3 years and look at you. Congrats my friend. I browsed through your blog. Looks good. I myself have taken a road for the better. Quit my job in 06 and hings have worked out great.

    I think most of them are visiting, just staying low-profile. Anyway, this is place where you come for knowledge. Apparently, if you're so successful there's nothing more you need to know.

    Depends on them if they going to contribute or leave. I just want to share something. I had read a thread about DP forums. And I forgot to bookmark it. Sounds like they are commenting about the community of DP now. They said that spammer are getting higher here. As a newbie, of course I don't even know what's DP before.

    If the people on the copywriting section are any indication, I think they have a long way to go. Now I know why I stayed away from this forum for awhile. Yikes!

    No offense, but after some of the posts I read in that section I had to shake my head - not a lot of common sense going on over there. Many don't even know the difference between copywriting vs. content writing.

    As with any community, sometimes you have to weed through the bull!

    Yeah - you're really successful.

    The most successful DP members always have such useful signatures that promote quality products. Give me a break. :rolleyes:

    I'd say about 95%+ of the people posting here are stupid and post crap or are just trying to promote their shit. It's fun when you've got so many people on your ignore list that when you open a thread only 3 out of 40+ replies are actually showing :D

    A few successful people do post here. I was posting a lot back in my 'good times' era when I was doing $10,000+ in revenue each month. Now that things have slowed down and I more focused on enjoying life I still come here and post and try to help out the newbies. However in all fairness I'm only pulling in like $500/month now ;)

    Reading this forum shows that some are closed minded. it is all the stupid stuff that helps to inspire new projects. I dont believe in all this crap but it does inspire new info and ideas. no one was a pro when they started the key is learn what you can from it quick then run like hell
