I find that amusing. Firstly I did not pretend to be my own brother. That is just another one of your assumptions.
Please be aware that the staff are still more than able to view all the posts and PMs, check the IP ranges, etc from that incident. Everything done under the Poverty, HAHALOL and Forza2.0 accounts are still easily reviewed by us.
The evidence points to one of two situations, either you used all three accounts or your brother used one of them and then allowed you access to cut and paste entire PMs and post them publicly (and as spam for that matter in a completely unrelated thread).
Secondly, I find it rather sad that certain members feel the need to be some sort of tattle tale. I could very well complain about them also however im not so petty. Do people really get that upset and worked up over the internet?
So you have a proble with members trying to keep standards to the established level and for using the tools provided to do so (the report button)?
Not exactly the sort of attitude we would expect from any member, please remember in this, that what we are asking you to do is no different to what we ask of any member. Anyone posting something as fact, that is not common knowledge will be asked to prove it. That's why most members link to sources for any material of this nature or they clearly say its rumour, opinion or speculation.
The entire reason why we are in this situation is your continued belief that this does not apply to you.
Other parts of the forum are active, but this part has been dead for quite some while now, and it used to thrive. These days, this section is primarily filled with bitchy sarcastic comments and nothing but upmanship. To be honest when I have the same set of longterm regular members who all brown nose each other constantly typing nothing constructive but sarcy comments I will eventually reply, with what is indeed the behaviour of a little boy.
Plenty of parts of this forum and most forums go through cycles. Hell the WRC threads have been as dead as a doornail for ages now, it happens.
The sub-forums here are no full of 'sarcastic comments', but what I can say (and it applies to ANY part of the forum) is that anything posted as fact, unless common knowledge, should be backed up with a source or proof.
Its not exactly difficult to do (if its a fact that is), and as such I fail to see why its such an issue for you.
GTP used to be fun but to be honest the way it has been going over the past year im not so sure I feel the same way anymore. The negativity that sits in every other thread, and the fact that people seemingly can never be civil for too long has become tiresome. No wonder we have lost so many great members over the years.
I will be rather blunt about this. If you don't like it here then don't post here, you know what we expect of members (having been told enough times) and you can either post as everyone else has to or you can leave.
Scaff
