Andreaz1 1,067 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 There is a thread for Christmas wishlists already in the Gen Chat, not dedicated to gaming but that's probably why http://gtaforums.com/topic/752566-christmas-wishlist/ Link to post Share on other sites

Kirsty 37,745 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I can't see why it was locked or who locked it. I've renamed and unlocked it for now unless another staff member comes forward with a reason why. Link to post Share on other sites

Good work to that particular mod. trying to meet your quota, are you? Did you even try searching the forum? I did, and found a 16 page topic for the game already. Link.

Gutslab 2,002 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Why was my greezler thread deleted? Why not locked, wrong section? It was written by a fellow gtaf member and I contributed some parts to it. Edited January 8, 2015 by Gutslab Link to post Share on other sites
Otter 7,936 Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Looks like it was pretty shameless advertising for an outside website with absolutely zero effort given to the forum post. Link to post Share on other sites
Gutslab 2,002 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) yea I guess you're right, I didn't say much about it. Basically the story was scattered in different posts from another forum and some gtalk convos from a few years ago. The guy who made the website decided to put all those parts together so the full story could be in one place. I don't believe he gets any money as there's no ads on the site. oww, the posts below got deleted v_v Edited January 12, 2015 by Gutslab Link to post Share on other sites
Hoary Gill 5 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) weasel, otter... can I talk to your leader? the chipmunk? where's he at? yeah, somone with some nuts. lol hey, just kidding. lighten up already! lil weasel said... There is a reason,1. There is no "Clown" in the unmodded game.2. There are no "Zombies" in the unmodded game.3. Mods are not a subject for this part of the forum.4. We do not need another series of (non)-Myth topics.5. Use SEARCH before creating a "new' topic. 1. there is indeed a clown driving every mr. whoopee van. are you new? 2. I don't use any mods or cheats or whatever. 3. fact is, I came upon a mr. whoopee clown i couldn't kill that was quite intent on killing me after I tried to jack his pecker-appointed popsicle truck. 4. why would I make this sh!t up? 5. only happened once. 6. which is why I wanted to know if anyone in this gaming community knew anything about it. 7. apparently not. 8. y'all need ta play it a little more! 9. lol Edited January 27, 2015 by Hoary Gill Link to post Share on other sites

S-M-O-K-E 415 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) Looking for quick help from an admin. My crews recruitment thread was removed due to an issue regarding a copywritten image being included in it. If an admin could be so kind as to remove the image & restore the thread it would be greatly appreciated. http://gtaforums.com/topic/767190-the-grim-henchmen-mc-ps4-now-recruiting/?do=findComment&comment=1066967293 If this can be done, can said admin please PM me after it has been restored so necessary changes can be made to the thread.

Durden 136 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) Thread link: http://gtaforums.com/topic/780092-video-game-name-generator/ Thread Title: Video Game Name Generator Thread justification: The thread is just as necessary as other contributory thread like "share your seflies" "post funny pics" or any other thread which facilitates dynamic content and amusement. It is a fresh gaming thread in the gaming forum, and it looks to be breaking no rules. I linked to an external website which isn't mine, nor am I profiting off of it, so why was my thread locked?

Otter 7,936 Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 'Game' threads tend to get locked. Normally, the moderator would leave a note explaining this. This one won't be overturned, sorry. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Osho 7,053 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) Talking about the thread - "One thing that V improved of IV" in the GTA V section. I am curious to know why was the thread completely removed ( or hidden ) when usually threads get locked out with a reason, and gets removed only in rare cases. I was the last one who replied in that thread pointing out how a moderator was trying to let the thread becoming derailed by off-topic post which was just a meme, and not even a post. So, is that the reason that would explain threads removal to hide the moderators fault, or something else? You can find the link to actual thread on google HERE. The very first result [edit]. To clarify: I am talking about the moderator himself making an offtopic post by quoting another reply with simply a meme, which was completely off-topic itself, thus I only tried to point him that according to the rules, his action ( via post ) is actually leading to continue this derailment.

hornedturtle 2,316 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Same with the "the online hate needs to stop" thread. Link to post Share on other sites
Osho 7,053 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I can understand if the thread was going out of hand with insults and no one seems to take the the thread seriously. In case of the thread to the topic, it was going smooth with some off topic posts in the last page or so, and began as every normal topic open for discussion. Locking the thread makes sense but doing totally opposite, and that too, because I simply pointed out the moderator should not let the thread derail further by quoting the post further for posting only an off topic post with a meme??? The timing is what makes me think that an inappropriate action was taken by removing the thread. Link to post Share on other sites
