I don't mean any disrespect to Jordan, but closing that thread was a dumb move. It is one of the longest threads in all of the Gran Turismo Forums (or any forums for that matter). We must let it run its course. Please, help me to get Jordan to reconsidder.
The thread is closed like it should be. I dont really approve of the new chat system due to morons such as MistaX and ViperConcept arguing, but what can you do.
This thread is a huge point to remember GTPlanet by. It's always there. I for one can say that without that thread, my interest in GTP would have never piqued and I would have not posted more than 100 times.

No, no - I came to GTP for the forums, but when I found that thread, I knew I had found a certain kind of people, dedicated to the site. I've posted in the thread itself just a bit - most of it came on four or five nights when trying to run it up to the next ten-thousand number like 70,000 or 100,000.

And that's presicely why Jordan is looking for a replacement. It is a drain on the community. If all you want to do is see how many times a group of people can submit useless text, a website with a dedicated cause is not the place to do that.
One comes here to read really useful posts (GT3 section) or really interesting ones here in the rumble strip, but not to find such kind of retarded posts like the HMRCWG which is a waste of bandwith.
On the 'top 10 posters' thing, if HMRCWG were deleted, Snoop would have the highest, I believe, and mine would be second, only because I've got about 750 posts in the test forum.
It needs to go bye-bye it is just a source of new members post-whoring their way to 200 and beyond...Its the most useless thread thus far (even worse than "Blue")
Well, I personally think the forum's taken a big step today - there's sufficient size in membership now that we can support a chat board pretty well 24/7, and support the original boards.
I very rarely posted in HMRCWG, but I will participate in the chat room more - it's a good opportunity for the members to get to know each other better.
Ummmm, you do know, of course, that you could simply have unsubscribed to that thread, and not have received those notices...?
I didn't have a problem with the thread itself, because I simply stopped going in it after the novelty wore off (which was quickly). I just find it kind of ironic that everybody was surprised to find a lot of postwhoring in a thread that was conceived by and populated with post whores. I mean, if it looks like dog crap, and it smells like dog crap, isn't that enough information for you to decide not to step in it?
Jordan's made the decision to do this and so I support it. I just hope that it is coordinated with good and thorough moderation by the admin staff. To all of you mods: there's nothing wrong with doing your jobs. You're here to help make this a better place. Don't hesitate to do something that needs to be done just because you're afraid to hurt somebody's feelings.
