We need a Wiki section for this.

Nothing new I can bring, but I'd never seen the Bo Rap thread or the Titanic thread before. They're fantastic.

Edit: here and here.
 
Rumple Foreskin.

The weekly photo shop & manga car competitions used to be huge. I alsoo remember when Duke was Neon_Duke.

The Grand Theft Auto forum was also really busy.
 
A couple of the mod's changed their names, Kent used to be Go Kents, I remember when he used to run the WRS.
 
Ah, my first day here...

The Nurburgring is not for drifting. Take your ricer somewhere else.
and the resulting response...

..thats fing uncalled for.. i bet you dont even know what the word "rice" comes from.. really... or even know what "rice" is at that.. cause alot of people dont and im sick of people saying they know stuff when they dont.
priceless memories... :)

One year later, and I'm still confounding people with ambiguously facetious posts (hell, I'm not always sure when I'm being sarcastic)
 
Great thread. I don't have much time on this forum (bit of a Jack Bauer moment there), but some of these old threads/moments are great.
 
What's this "Colour Blue" everyone keeps talking about? I must be too green to know. I did a search but came up with really broad results. What was it?
 
Check out the link I posted at the top of page two - it's the Internet Archive version that has a few of the first pages saved.
 
Radicool's Mum requesting to have the dishwasher cleaned was my favorite thread!

Pass & 'll

The Test Forum
-The color blue

April Fools '05 - the hacking of GTP

People that used to participate in the weekly art comp's, like Glacius and Minorce used to participate
 
Com’n people – some of you are posting things that are only a few months old. ;)

I remember when Duke and Der Alta and Doug and Christiaan and Klos and Giles and everybody else used to actually post in the GT3 forum (lordy!).

There was DessViper, ViperConcept, Viperthis and Viperthat…

How ’bout rjensen11?

Christiaan bought the second-gen iPod – he was probably the first on this forum with an iPod.

Oh, this is a long shot, but does anybody remember Troy? He made my first custom avatar, and was the one who introduced me to instant messaging – too bad he did a few stupid things and got himself banned.

More recently, when everybody started vectorizing cars.

And the day everybody used the Joshua Tree avatar.

Subliminal Coke messages, courtesy of Klos.

The first GTP Awards, eventually leading to Der Alta’s moderatorship.

PunkRock’s car getting stolen, PunkRock’s car getting crashed (damn, you unlucky man you!).

Doug going to the hospital and placed in a full body cast, just to find out several years later that it was part of the most elaborate hoax ever.

The Hot or Not section of GTP, back when it had those colorful tabs at the top.

Oh, that reminds me – the backwards Porsche! :lol:
 
Wow this place has a lot of strange history...especially the s13drifting guy did anyone else notice he was the starter of about 4 out of the first 5 threads mention in the funny thread thread? lot of banned members
 
The time Famine got corrected by someone! :D

I forget who and what the correction was about, but reading it has stayed in my mind ever since. :lol:
 
Sage
And the day everybody used the Joshua Tree avatar.

Yeeeah, that's what I was trying to remember. I remembered that something happened with those avatars, besides Doug's series of different Joshua Tree variations throughout his entire GTP tenure.




What ever happened to Timmotheus? Wasn't he a classmate of yours, Sage?

And anyone remember Robin?
 
How about that guy who's done about three separate threads about Aaliyah? Saying she was so beautiful she probably still looks hot after three years embalmed and how he'd like to unearth her and... er... nevermind.

Wow, it was actually SIX different threads... how did he last that much?
And all that in just 23 posts !....

@Famine - Now that you mention it.. I don't like to read the Banned Users Log much - I'm afraid I'll find my entry in there (Like reading your own obituary)....
