TheJonesy 1 Posted January 1, 2008 Seeing that you are an 'o7er such as myself, I wouldn't worry about it. But to answer: The only time admins/mods allow flaming to occur. That's about the simplest way to explain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GodfatherITB 0 Posted January 1, 2008 I miss that place. Oh well. Maybe it will be resurrected again for a little while in the future. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's about the simplest way to explain. The Pit was a whole sub forum setup to handle disputes and talk trash. That would include flaming: settling arguments, starting arguments, messing with people, making an are out of yourself, etc. Why it was closed? That's GTAF admins and mods for ya! Sometimes I think it was a smart way to get rid of assholes by having them practicalling ban themselves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brad 380 Posted January 1, 2008 You didn't miss out on much. At least not this time around. I want teh pit just to take down the night fox. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cashire 0 Posted January 1, 2008 Sounds like fun , I wish it would come back Edit : A bit off topic but why does every one hate the night fox? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheJonesy 1 Posted January 1, 2008 Sounds like fun , I wish it would come back As I said before, even if it did, you wouldn't be able to participate. Wasn't it that any '07er that did were temp banned or something? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheDude5000 2 Posted January 1, 2008 You didn't miss out on much. At least not this time around. I want teh pit just to take down the night fox. I want it open so someone can take down all these weirdos posting threads in Gen. Chat about their personal problems. It's embarassing. What if one of the Housers drops by, or some other R* employee...and they see that sh*t? It's enough already. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Picolini 17 Posted January 2, 2008 Hmmm, that place looks like it'd be entertaining... oh well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manofpeace 12 Posted January 2, 2008 Well, apparently it's been dieing every time it was brought back. We just need some kind of new thing like it. Maybe put a filter on it so late 07ers and 08ers can't get in. That would help it quite alot. But, then again, only a bored staff would open it when times are slow again. Perhaps in February or something it'll be quieter. Just watch out for GTA IV's release. That'll be a dangerous time for Teh Pit or any other cool idea.

iRloading 17 Posted January 2, 2008 All fun must come to an end I suppose. So they closed it ? Why? '07s breaking the no '07s rule ... among other things~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stefan. 7 Posted January 2, 2008 Are 06's allowed to participate? Nonetheless, I guess it could be good, because it can let people just roll their feelings for others out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Runey 52 Posted January 2, 2008 Dude, were talking about something which has already passed, its over. It's NEVER OVER! I kept away from teh pit myself, I didn't see the need in posting there in all honesty. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
