It's because having it separate allows the rules to be a lot more relaxed. The hot girl thread would not exist if GN was still part of this site.

OMG I hadn't thought of that! Good point.

Surely we could have a different set of rules for the GN section within TPU though?

most ppl wouldnt be able to differenciate between the rules in GN and TPU if they both are in the same area of the forums imo

having GN seperately is good in most ways

The relaxed approach that seems to be occurring with those users (and staff) that openly admit and "allow" piracy is, in my opinion, unacceptable.

To be fair, this has always been our drama thread and the title used to be very general.

Underneath that thread title is a post explaining what the thread is for. I updated the thread title so there's no confusion.

Thank you.

Just in mobile view some things.
I can't see who thank me or post for someone if some people thank him or not.
Also i can't do multi quote, cuz there is no multi quote buttom.
And can't see all options in my (user) home page (not user CP page).

I think erocker doesn't like me very much .. Maybe because I get all stupid and then get warned all the time from him . I think this is the best forum on the internet hands down !

Why is it so hard to figure out what "stay on the thread topic" means? If you aren't here to complain about how unfair life and the staff are treating you, or why we don't make rainbows come out of your back side, find another thread to spam with garbage! Thanks

I can't say I have ever seen erocker not be subjective, but then again he has been around about as long as me so maybe I am special. Sneeky on the other hand he needs a hug.
