I've recommended TFP to two relatively active members, but I have issues with recommending, say, college colleagues.
Issues:
- Porn. Nobody wants to be recommended to a porn board regardless of the gnarliness of the other content. I've had the porn / exhibition poopoo deactivated on my account after sending $50 worth of beef jerky to the The_Jazz. Porn may generate a boatload of hits or whatever (not a web guru), but you're not getting any board content out of the fap horde. Exhibition is okay given my knowledge of the safeguards, but still a little leery because it features bewbs and wangz. Goes like this, "Hey, Bandersnatch... you should join this mondo site that I'm at called TeeEffPee. Hot convo and... uh... um... porn." Yeah, it's like citing Wikipedia in a college paper... you just flushed your credibility down the crapper.
- Personal post paranoia. I'm relatively anonymous here, but it wouldn't take a genius to find me if you read a few of my posts. This is a big deal considering the job field I'm entering where one's Facebook profile and a basic Google search are the first things that The Man does to ensure you're a good little robot.
- Not many of my friends are "readers." They prefer things like alcohol poisoning or chasing skirts. TFP is full of uber-brainiacs. And me, for some reason.

Is that a URL joke?
