I think that depends on whether or not someone actually vote for every single member of the forums. If so, it's surely going to take a while.

Well how do you like this, for once I'm the late one to the party (and you may very well notice that Mr Procrastination himself, Roo, still hasn't provided his interview. Delinquent.
Someone scream at him for me, but until that has taken place we have a member who was on time and known to most of us as being very opinionated and unafraid to get in to it when the opportunity presents itself. As I'm sure you've guessed by now, another person has found their way in to the Member of the Week madhouse, seeking the fame and fortune that only this status is capable of granting.
Let's welcome the newest member to find a vacant apartment in the ever-expanding (this is costing me a lot of money) MotW madhouse, Danoff!
I think it's an interesting thread idea, and definitely promotes more of a community atmosphere rather than a collection of random individuals. It's nice of you to put this together. I'm happy to be part of it, I suppose that it stems from the fact that I spend way to much time here.
GT3 brought me to GTPlanet in 2003. I had a specific question about car setup or something along those lines, and I figured this would be the place to ask.
I come back because the site is so well maintained. I don’t have to deal with web speak or abusive behavior, and yet heated discussions are not immediately stomped on by moderators. It’s that balance that I find so rare on internet forums, and it’s the reason I keep coming back.
So many places on the internet are filled with useless posts “first!1!” or people just trolling for laughs. A lot of it is nonsense, and very difficult to read. GTPlanet has rules about that sort of thing, and I think it’s those rules that help clean up the discourse and really offer people a chance to connect.
The other reason I keep coming back is because I have connected with some great people here, and I like to hear what they have to say.
Well anyone who is familiar with my username probably knows that I spend most of my time in the Opinions forum talking about religion, politics, and philosophy. I like to spend time there because it's an opportuity to really dig into subjects that are very important but that people don't like to talk about. The anonymity of the forum frees people to talk about things they don't talk about in person. You don't discuss politics in too much detail with your in-person friends because, eventually, you're going to disagree and it's going to get ugly. You definitely don't talk about it at the workplace because you have to work with those people everyday. Internet forums are a way to argue about politics without getting punched in the face, ostracized or fired at work, or lose all of your friends.
I think it was that it was a racing game with real cars and real physics. I could drive cars that I could see on the street, and how they handled in the game would represent how they handled in real life. It was a way to get to know hundreds of cars that I had never driven, and learn about their differences.
In a very real way, Gran Turismo sparked my interest in cars, rather than the other way around. I liked driving, but I hadn’t really taken the time to learn about what cars were out there or how they were different. I barely knew anything about cars when I first started playing the game, but as I got more interested in the game, I got more interested in cars.
It was actually given to me by someone else. It’s an abbreviation for an old videogame tag that I used to use which was “danofantioch” – which is a Monty Python reference. I was likening myself to a holy-hand grenade when it came to video games. One of my friends decided that the name was just too long and shortened it to Danoff.
I’ve never actually played Forza. Gran Turismo for me.
I haven’t really had an appetite for other racing games after playing GT. I really enjoyed F-Zero (SNES) back in the day, I think I’ll always have a special place reserved for that one.
I really like the “like” button, the @ references and alerts. It helps direct people to conversations, or avoids needless small posts with just a smiley or a lol. I think it promotes a sense of community by engaging people to reply to a post more easily without having to actually make another post. So it consolidates the forum (which is good) and yet gives you an even better sense of who is reading and what they think.
Overall, very good stuff.
I actually haven’t played a GT game since GT3. I’d like to, but the new systems are so expensive, and I find my time getting stretched thin. I’ve got enough space now that I could get a proper chair to mount my racing wheel on and dedicate a monitor to it. It would be great to have a good racing simulator.
That’s a really difficult question. I feel like I’d need to get to know them first. I suppose that means I’d be an ambassador.
Video games don’t seem to be very nice places to live. I considered final fantasy, but there are too many crazy bad guys – I feel like I’d get turned into a toad or turned to stone and not have the right potion.
Really I suppose the answer is Gran Turismo. You can make good money by racing against really bad racers, and buy lots of cool cars. You never die, and there is always another race or more cars to get.
It would be Formula 1 without all of the restricting rules. I’d let the manufacturers loose to push the boundaries of engineering and see what kind of magic they came up with.
If it was wildly successful, I’d start building tracks that had an upside-down portion. I know those cars make enough downforce to stick to the roof, but I’d like to see that in action. Can you maintain enough speed while making a pass or going through a turn to be able to stay stuck to the ceiling?
The fast way through the track would be to take the upside-down part, the slow way (if you didn’t trust your car) would be to stay right side up and go through a series of hairpins.
There is nothing interesting about my hometown. It’s a retirement community with next-to-zero population in the middle of nowhere. My graduating high school class had a total of 33 students, only 2 of us went to college. I think I’m the only one who went to grad school.
That’s how people who know me in person feel too. I’ve been known to go on long rants about subjects as simple as “ketchup” or “when is the best time of day to shower”.
I have a strong propensity for logic. I use it at work (I do a fair amount of computer programming), and I gravitated toward it in school. I took a number of advanced logic courses in college, and I did well in them. It’s just the way I’m wired, so I can’t help but apply that to subjects like politics and human interaction. My wife is very logic oriented to, so our conversations go pretty smoothly.
I think one of the things that gets you labeled “opinionated” is when you think you’re right, and since I usually form my positions out of logic, I’m usually pretty confident that I’m right about them. Of course, that’s not always the case, and GTPlanet has corrected me on a few things.
I’ve done some autocross and advanced driving training at race tracks. I’ve also really enjoyed ice driving, which is like an autocross course set up on a frozen pond – very fun.
I’m a PC gamer, but not really hardcore.
I’m also in the process of starting a company which has me soldering electrical wiring, creating molds, and casting urethane resin parts. Not ready to talk about what the company will do yet though.
One of my biggest hobbies is already well known to GTPlanet, which is philosophizing about human rights.
My 330i is very special. When I was in college I used to dream about owning an E46 330i sedan. I’d go on the BMW website and build just the right one, and then look at the price and realize it was absurd to even dream about.
Somehow I didn’t realize that eventually they’d be old and used and I could pick one up for cheap.
I might have to turn it down. I love the site, and I definitely enjoy contributing to the site, but I also really enjoy getting into heated opinionated arguments on the opinions forum. I think it helps that I’m not a moderator, so I can feel free to flame people with my position while at the same time expecting to hear exactly how stupid the other person thinks I really am.
It’s a reference to Atlas Shrugged, one of my favorite books. Ayn Rand paints a picture of a society full of two kinds of people she calls them “producers” and “looters”. Atlas represents the producers, shouldering the burden of the world - the burden being the looters. Her novel is about the producers of the world shrugging off their burden. I love the symbolism.
I don’t generally pre-order games, but I also usually don’t wait for a price drop. I just buy when I’m convinced that the game is going to be great and I think I have time to play it.
I just bought a Wii, but not for the next generation of games, I wanted to be able to play old Nintendo games like Mario and Final Fantasy. I haven’t made plans to pick up a PS4 or any of the others. I should check to see if PS3s can finally be gotten for a reasonable price.
Preparation for the zombie apocalypse.
How exactly? Because if it’s going to be a painful death, my last meal would be something that would kill me quickly and painlessly.
One of the best meals I can think of is a bloody red filet mignon with garlic mashed potatoes, béarnaise, fresh bread, and a smooth Cabernet. Finish with a light chocolate and white Moscato.
The only problem with that is that it doesn’t have anything fried – and I don’t know whether or not my last meal could lack something fried. Add french fries and I’d be covered.
Probably a strong 7. I’ve been known to say thing like “there shouldn’t be airport security” or “there shouldn’t be public schools” or “I think hard drugs should be legal”. These statements are nut house potential for sure.
I love the E46. I can imagine it being better than it is, but I just love it and I’m not sure I can think of a better fit. I think it says I have cheap taste – because most people would probably say a Veyron or Ferrari. If I could make the perfect car (because it was never made) it would be an M3 sedan E46 (which didn’t get produced) with a dual clutch gearbox.
I think that says that I’m a nutjob. To me it means I love driving, style, refinement, don’t want to over-sacrifice utility, and I want it all wrapped up in the perfect combination.
None, but I did used to have a bad habbit of slamming my gameboy into my forehead when I did something wrong. Eventually I decided that smacking my head wasn’t going to improve my play.
From my phone a few times when I wanted to find a post for reference, but nothing crazy.
Probably months, right at the beginning – because at first I was just using the site as a reference for gaming. Once I started debating religion and politics I don’t think it’s been more than a few weeks for a vacation.
Famine. There are lots of great members here, and that’s part of why I keep coming back. I’d start to list some of my other favorite members at this point but I don’t want to offend by leaving folks off the list. So I’ll just say that the members are one of the great things about the site.
Used to be Pizza Hut, but they cheaped out on their ingredients and went downhill so Papa Johns now.
Jemaine Clement from Flight of the Conchords. That way he could be the hiphopopotamus.
There are few ways to go with this, I could ignore the naked part and just figure on picking the person I’d most like to have a conversation with – Justice Clarence Thomas. Or I could go with who I’d most like to see me naked and hang out with naked – and that’d be an attractive female (the most attractive one I can think of is not a well known enough celebrity to name). There is another way though, which is to wonder how I ended up in a broken elevator naked. How do I get my clothes back? What happened to me?
Clearly someone attacked me, knocked me out, stole my clothes, and most likely locked me in the elevator. My guess would be that the celebrity was also the victim of this attack. Is this an isolated incident? Were we the victims of some random mugger? How thorough was the attack? Have I lost everything?
I need someone with the courage, wits, and strength to help me get my life back. I need someone who can help me get out of the elevator and track down the people who did this to us. I need someone who can go on an adventure of a lifetime, taking out bad guys, to rescue my belongings and who knows what else. I need… Jackie Chan.
I used to be quite active in the WRS. I was actually very good too, and managed to get on the top podium once. I stopped participating when skeptical people started demanding that I go out and buy whatever capture device it is that you use to download your saved laps from a PS2 so that you can share it on the internet. I didn’t have any interest in dropping $30 on a piece of hardware just to prove my innocence, so I dropped it. I think I dropped GT3 altogether when that happened.
I have not.
I’ll just say that I really enjoy GTPlanet, and that I think it’s a great community. In some ways, the people on GTPlanet know me better than some of my closest friends and family. Thanks to everyone for making it a great place to spend time.
Someone scream at him for me, but until that has taken place we have a member who was on time and known to most of us as being very opinionated and unafraid to get in to it when the opportunity presents itself.

My first post was in the GT3 section asking about how to find a certain car, or what car you won if you finished some race or something similarly inane. I don’t think it could possibly be any more different than the political essays I write in the opinions forum these days.
None, but I did used to have a bad habbit of slamming my gameboy into my forehead when I did something wrong. Eventually I decided that smacking my head wasn’t going to improve my play.

We're back on top of things after a week's break, so let's welcome the newest member to find a vacant apartment in the ever-expanding (this is costing me a lot of money) MotW madhouse, m8h3r!
) came close to breaking a controller.
It's quite overwhelming, I never realised that people thought that much of me on here. I've managed to make my way into a group of 5 people who I regularly race with but outside of that I didn't know. Feels like I've just won an oscar!
Origanally I googled for a tune to make the Veyron less "Boat-like", I ended up going on the site more and more whilst at college, started doing organised races and I've never looked back.
I spend a lot of time in threads like The Funny Piture thread in the rumble strip or around the motorsports section. I may not be posting, but you sure bet I will be reading.
With the exception of Gran Turismo 1 as a child GT5 was the first time I really got into. My friend got it on release day and I played it a few days later, no shame in saying I sucked, but I knew I had to get it. A trek down town in the snow to get it but it was worth it. Topped 150,000 miles on GT5 and switched to GT6.
Well my last name is actually Maher, so you can see where it comes from. My uncle has the number plate for his car as "m8her" so I took insperation from that and my late friend using just his full name as his PSN name and came up with "m8h3r"
I once had an original xbox, which I had Forza Motorsport 2 on. I never made the upgrade to a 360 and later releases. I would for that reason have to go with the Gran Turismo series, however I try to distance myself from the GT vs Forza wars that break out on GTPlanet as I don't believe its fair to pass judgement on a game I haven't played.
I enjoy the Codies F1 games, F1 2011 the most but I also like games such as Grid and Burnout Paradise, my first platinum
I really like the new mobile site, and the new converstion system. The site flows nicely depending on the screen size. Just a shame we had to lose the banner.
I was overjoyed at the Fiat 500 and KTM's being included. Both cars I love among many already incuded. A few things I would like to see in it, for example supported multi class racing, so I don't just see the time I am from the guy in first and not the one first in my class.
A look forward to the next question, it was acutally CM Punk who got me into wrestling. Him feuding with Jeff Hardy and Undertaker as the leader of the Straight Edge Society. Thats what got me hooked on wrestling.
Well after he no showed Chicago I had no doubts to whether it was a shoot or work. I hope one day he'll be back, maybe the 2015 royal rumble to go on a face the WWE WHC at WM31.
I'd have to pick a gran turismo, all I want to do is race and the list of endless car/track possibilties I see no better choice.
My hometown is actually quite boring, but around 20 years back it was a major shoe making town with around 100 factories even though it only has about 30,000 people living here. Now unfortuantly it's down to just 4.
I think that as long as people are respectful of others, and most here are, then even two of the most conflictingly opinionated people can make for a great debate.
Well my 2 main hobbies are pretty highlighted here on GTPlanet already but here goes just in case, cue the music, "Oh you didn't know?!", see what I did there? Cars have to be number 1, always will be, and followed by wrestling. If there is either of these on the TV I'll be watching it.
Unfortuantly even with my addiction to all things car related I don't know how to drive, so nothing special on the road.
Since I bought the wheel it would be GT6, enjoying it so much more with the wheel now. Before that it was probably FIFA 13.
I'd jump at it, I'd love to be able to give back to the site.
I've always prefered James to the other two and decided to show that with the Avatar. Then I sort of adopted this persona of captain slow.19. Why did you choose that avatar, and why is it not a monkey? (Don't ask me, I had nothing to do with this.
It's got to be pre-ordered. Can't beat that feeling of getting it a day early.
I want to get a PS4, but I haven't got a plan to get one yet. I was saving but decided to spent it on a wheel for current gen.
"At May Cars we are commited to giving you cars that look but don't feel like they've just come from the Nurburgring. Get that race look without the back breaking suspension"
I'd have to go with a slighly spicy Spaghetti Bolagnase, even though it's my favourite meal I still haven't learnt how to spell it.
In my eyes 3-4, in the eyes of others maybe 8-9, the addiction to cars and wrestling doesn't seem so bad on GTPlanet but out in the real world....
Ford GT, the re-inarnation of the classic Ford GT40, that iconic car is a car I still dream about today but if I was to talk about a car I would see mysel owning in later life it would have to be a Ford Mustang Mach 1. Such a beautiful car. It would take more effort to drive and with the upkeep but would all be worth it.
It was actually a new thread I opened on the Bugatti Veyron. When I first got here I never had much time for grammar and like many of the newbies that come into GTP I didn;t exatly use full sentances. Now I always try and use the correct punctuation and so on.
Must be around 3-4. More recently though I've started to be able to control gaming anger, however the Far Cry 3 misson doppelganger (close enough
) came close to breaking a controller.I was actually on here at new years. The lady friend laying next to me playing my PS3 as I surfed GTP with a little bit of a "huh, oh, Happy New Year" then back to GTP.
Think I may have managed about 3 days, but not much else because even if I'm not playing GT5/6 I still come on for things like the F1 threads and many rumble strip ones.
I don't know if I can name indivual people as there are so many that make my GTPlanet experience so unique but some people have been especially generous in my time here, Monatsende to name one, who I have a feeling could be responsible for the monkey comment about?
Wow season, that's a hard one. I don't know if I can pick a season that stands out as there have been so many great episodes, especially the specials or the ÂŁ1,000 car challenges.
I'd probably cross it with a Kangeroo, could you imagine the size of the holes that thing would leave in the floor if a hippo had the jumping ability of a Kangeroo?
Jennifer Aniston, because I want to be friends. What else could I do trapped in a lift with a naked lady?
Oh yeah, I'm always up for anything that Jawehawk's hosting and have dipped my toes into other peoples too. I once participated in a Go-Kart race series which I was actually so bad at it but had fun battling with a good friend of mine, John Wells. I would like to do that championship again but this time with my wheel as I feel I can have a stronger showing this time round.
I have made single races which ahve gone ok and I think I made a one off series but it never got going with the Ferrari F1 cars. I might try my hand at making more events with GT6 having only hosted the "Great British Trackday". I did say I would consider doing like a german version of it.
Well I don't think there is anything else I can say, you've all just got an insight into my life and had a chance to ask questions, of course if there is any more feel free to ask, but for tonight I think thats all I can handle. So on that bombshell....
