These are all in fun.

Id say im guilty of number 1, but thats only for 2 or 3 forums. I know that 70 is GTA forum and 117 is WRS etc.

What ones are found guilty of or, what ones do you think should be on the list
 
When you start using the smiley codes in I.M.s, emails and other forums.

edit: see some post "I'm bored give me attention" every night in the convo thread. :rolleyes:

Guilty as charged.

I suffer from 3, 5, 13, 17, 18, 20, 22, 27, 28, 31, 35, 39, 40, 44, 46, 48, lol 53, 54, 55. I'm not sure if it's a good sign to have that many (from the old list)!

Yeah his 'tars are the greatest, although you don't necessarily have to be on GTP too much to laugh your ass off at it, :lol:.

Hmm .. I can't come up with any good ones to add to the list - most of the ones I could think of were taken up in the post which dates back to the stone-age :sigh:.

When you have talked to Doug about the next car your parents should buy
Yup, guilty here. :scared:

Let's start a new list. After Small_Fryz's numbers 1-5, sUn's #6, VipFREAK's #7, cobb's #8, emad #9, and Ev0's #10…

11) You get lost if more than one person at a time changes their avatar.
 
Sage
Yup, guilty here. :scared:

That happens to me all the time - some people have Jedi's avatar now and I always think it's him.

12) you can't go anywhere w/o internet access for more than 24 hours because there will be too many new posts to read.

Also guilty, though someone recently had a bunch of AVs from the same car and from the same shoot. It was kind of cool to see them cycle through it in less than a week.

BTW, not to embarrass him, but I know Der Alta is also guilty of this. ;)

13) You become a friggin' Moderator

I'd say my habitualness of visitation is why I look here too much. Everyday, I'll check my favorite forums about 3-12 times (depending on the day).
 
nice one sage, i noticed your not only a "friggen mod" but a super mod.

These are really nice, keep em coming.

Ive also updated my 1st post to contain all the ones posted thus far

OR more ;)

Yep, I use the auto fill-in feature of IE and know the number of each forum. Haven't memorized the GT4 forums, yet.

How about, "you've been banned more than 4 times, and haven't caught the hint to stay away"

It's a bit harsh, but true on to many facets.

Sounds like someone i know.

these are great,

20)Your the last poster of 15 threads in the same forum
21)Your forum subscriptions looks like an extended version of the GTP Forums mainpage.
 
You continually refresh a board, hoping that someone will reply to your post.

Impatience is a killer. 3 hours more...
 
You start making cars in videogames that have a paint scheme to look like the GTP website.

You get carpal tunnel syndrome not by watching pr0n or playing games but by browsing GTP.

You learn more from GTP member then you do from teachers, angering school boards.

You lose sleep, school marks, and videogame time browsing GTP (it's 3:00am right now).

Your homepage is set to GTP.

You know the DOB of over 50 members.

You've met more than 2 of them and talked to more than 5.

You're late for school because you're on GTP.

You get to school and then get kicked off the computers for the rest of the week because you were caught on GTP.

All your health, love, car, technology, and music inquiries happen on GTP.



I'm guilty of most of these.
 
When you communicate with others you think in a Forum sense. Rather than actually speaking you start pretending like someone is posting and your responding to their post. :banghead:
 
#23 for me. I'm on GTP, everyday. Last time I played GT(or any PS2 game) was week or two ago. :ouch:
