Well, it's been quite a while since I've posted on these forums, and yet for some reason the GTP forum persists in being my homepage. So, for once, I figure I'd check things out and find out how much things have changed around here. I can say I don't recognize a lot of people, but that's probably ok because most of you probably don't recognize me. So then, what exactly is the point of this thread? Nostalgia would be the simplest answer, and it is a good thing to discuss memories so they don't fade into the past. So, what are your experiences here at GTP, how do you view them, if you could change anything you've done, would you, and how have things changed since you joined?

Discuss. :)
 
Hey Jpec - Hope you remember me. I remember you and silverzone too !!

I always associate you with the weekly GTP photoshop competitions for some reason.

What would I change since I've been at GTP ?? I think I would have made the effort to take part in more of the weekly races

Welcome back though

 
It's been two months - and he's talking about nostalgia.

Jspec, are you on drugs?

Technically yes (Accutane...), but as for anything illegal, no. I guess that it seems like longer (for some reason I feel that when Darin was banned, my leave started). I'm not going to be as active as I was, but I will make an effort to post more. And besides, it's not a bad thing to be nostalgic about two years of history at a forum...

Accutane, huh? Well - don't kill yourself just yet.

hey, I remember you too. You don't post very often anymore. so post more. 👍
 
Not sure if I remember you or not, but I always welcome new opinions and views to the table. Granted, you're not technically "new," but your opinions and views on some of the newer topics (i.e. ones that have come up since you've been absent) could be considered new. I have no idea what the hell I'm talking about.
 
BigJamesGTI, I remember you from the weekly races (although can't say I really know much about you, I only remember the name and the blue typing).

Haha, don't worry about death by accutane, it's not likely at all here. :)

I don't really remember you, and don't worry about not knowing what the hell you're talking about, none of us really do anyway. :dopey:

Your not on your own there.

But anyways, I remember you mostly back in my days of n00b when I used to participate in the Photoshop weekly, and also because of your animated, controversial avatar.
 
I know what I would have done! I'd've not gotten banned. Or spent 2 hours trying to sign up with PayPal.
 
When I just joined, I remember seeing your interesting avatar in many threads. :)

It's still animated, just not nearly as controversial anymore. :)

Well that's a comforting thought (I think...)
 
J,

Good to see you around. If you're ever down my way, drop me a PM and we'll meet.

I'm back from my hiatus, and git GT4 coming up, it'll be a hoping place.

Catch you around some time.

Till later,

AO
 
I've seen your avatar in many threads before when I joined. I don't see them much anymore.

But glad to have you back. 👍

I rember seeing you around a few times! :D Glad you are back though. :) Anyways who said Darin was gone after he was banned? I know he is back but I am not a will to say what his new user account is. :lol: Plus he has a second chance so it doesnt matter. :)

Accutane doesn't kill people, it kills messageboards and makes you a HaRdC0r3!!1! racer.
 
Yeah I remember you Jpec, ****e I remember when you used to post a lot. Actually all of the GTP oldies seemed to have dropped out recently n don't post as much, I can't talk I use to post a bit but just don't seem to have the time like I used to anymore. Was it you, who had problems with your parents and "band camp" or whatever it was? Maybe that was someone else......
I havn't seen Giles in a while, along with Pako Miata, (I used to get on with him well) and soo many others.
I know a few people buggered off to Giles house and still hang there, I occasioanlly pop by there, but still Giles's place is pretty infrequent and irregular.
Bugger, I'd change and get GTP back to what it used to be with fewer members and just the regulars. There's just too many peeps on here now for my liking, it's hard to keep up. I'd also post more like what I used to.
keep up the posting again man.

Thanks for letting us know about that. :) Don't say it doesn't matter, though.
 
I remember you, but I havent seen vat_man the super mod here for ages!?

Bah, if he's behaving himself do you really have to do anything about it?

"This one time at band camp..."
In all seriousness though, I was the one with the parental issues and such. They trust me a little more (now that I have my license they kinda have no choice), but yeah. Things have cooled down.

And definitely, if things could go back to the way they were back then it would all be good.

True, but it has been known to make people Emo overnight...

I see Vat quite a bit over a gile's place, go and check it out. It's like old school GTP but without the annoying whining of newbies.
Kinda like an old country village pub, where all your old time mates pop by once in a while and you can catch up, then you won't see them for a while, you know a bit quiet and all.
