So then, another year done. It's been a good year here at GTAForums. The release of GTA:IV brought about record network traffic levels and a large number of great new and returning members to complement the existing roster of quality users that frequent these forums. Whilst it is worthy to note that the vast majority of you are excellent members, there are a number of users who have excelled in certain fields. These people are the winners of the following awards, all of which have been nominated and voted for by yourselves.

It is a shame not everyone can win these awards, as a large number of you lot are deserving.

Anyway, without further delay, here are the results.

saintdave takes to the stage

First I’d like to thank Mark and the other admins getting this together and organised in the first place, it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but I’m a firm believer these awards give all members something to aim for in that if you help out and conduct yourself well you will get recognition.

Congratulations to all that won awards they were richly deserved and I’m pleased to see many members I know well coming in first place for their respective categories.

Lastly thank you to those who nominated me in the first place and voted for me.

[eDad.]

I shall take my award for most second places now.
Grats to everybody who won.

[Typhus]

Typical...

[Mainland Marauder]

Awesome. Congratulations to everyone.

[greebo-man]

I cannot wait to see the slammer sporting his shiny new medal.

[Fabio206]

[Runey]

Congrats to all the winners.

[AndyGanteks]

Thanks to everyone who voted for The Yardies and it's members in the awards.

Better luck next year i guess for all the losers, one question do the 2nd and 3rd placed people get a verbal commendation at least, or nothing?

Nothing, I'd assume

[Flesh-n-Bone]

Congrats to all winners, too bad I wasn't nominated a single time.
