I need bigger avatar limits so I can use my bigger avatars so they will have smoother rotation!

Right on! Can't wait, as I'm sure the same can said for the rest of the community!

That's one scaaarrry place man...I used to hang out in there and I still have nightmares :nervous:
 
I only wish the new installment turns out to be dial-up friendly, or at least as friendly as the current GTP, which I can't complain about.

Still, good to see the site coming around as well as it is.
 
yeah good pint.. no flash forums! lol- not until i get cable! :D

Flash forums smell.

I am curious about this Premium, and what benefits and advantages it will have over normal members. Larger attachment sizes, avatars, signature pictures?

Bring it on.
 
I could do without them, but if there are going to be pics allowed in signatures I hope there's a pixel limit.

That's a cool avatar, ALPHA.

Pics in signatures suck. Even worse then quotes in signatures.
Agree, I'm not a fan of signature pictures. An avatar and a text signature is enough for me.

Now it is time for me to close my trap.
 
Dial-up friendly. 👍
I hope... :D

Jordan, I have a question.

Do you think this down time will interfere with the weekly race series.

We run with a deadline for each race at 1:00am Eastern Standard Time on monday night/ tuesday morning.

I'm going to make plans for the worst and hope for the best.

Also, I do look forward to the new lay out.
Dial-up friendly please. ;)

Later. :D
 
As long as you leave everthing in and only add new stuff, I'm all for it. If you charge for features we already have, that's just wrong man.
 
I like these forums how they are. But if change is necesary...

This GTP premium better not drive me away from these forums.
 
Hmmmm...sounds like fun I guess...though I'm still a relativly new member so I never knew the older GTp's so this'll be the first change i've seen..excitment.....was the old GTP like 8bit SuperMario for Nes? That would be cool.......
 
Heh - I read that the banner and thought, being British, '6th of July? That's ages!' But Monday it is. Hurrah!

56k friendly please. And don't take anything away for non-Premiumers. How much is the premium going to cost?
 
Just no sig pics please! They take away from the flow and make the site look dirty. When reading about GT4, I don't want to see an ad for someones Magna/Hentai site.
 
I wouldn't mind signature pictures too much, just as long as they're within reason (e.g. no five-foot-long monsters).

Also, Event Horizon, in order to get the quote that you see around the forum, like the one below, simply hit the "quote" button at the bottom of the post.

Excuse me? I don't believe this is an appropriate response from you, or anybody.

This site is private property: owned, operated, and all expenses borne by Jordan. His ball, his bat, his yard. His rules, his right to do whatever he wishes with his site.

If GTPremium turns out not suit your needs, then vote with your feet and go somewhere else that does. That is the limit of your rights and priveleges here.

If you don't like it, by all means go ahead: start your own forum that you can run any way you like. But it would be well to remember that you are in no position to make demands or threats here.
 
I think he was tryin to say (in the wrong way) that Jordan should be careful that the changes do not drive people away, or make them unhappy with GTP. I don't think it was a threat, just that some members may get disgruntled at the changes. But you are right if he doesn't like it he can lump it and go somewhere else. I can't wait to see what it looks like.
 
GTP6 sounds great but no way am I paying (I had a huge debate about subscriptions on deviantart). Please don't takeaway any of the current features for the free version only add to the subscribers features. Please! :D
 
Jordan, I have absolute faith in your ability to further this cracking web site. I'm also really excited to see what's new in vB3.

In the mean time, if there's anything I can do to help, please let me know. PM me if you need my contact details.
 
Monday can't come quickly enough.

I find GTP one of the smoothest and easiest forae (?) to navigate and I often dimiss other forae (?) because they seem impossible by comparison.

Should be 'somes. 👍
