don't you even dare compare yourself to Slamman - he has put years of love and attention into this forum, and long after you've got bored of us and we've forgotten you, he'll still have the high level of recognition for his efforts he deserves.

Please tell me you're joking.

Please.

I worry sometimes, it's hard to tell who's even joking about it anymore. It's frightening.

Slamman won five awards this year. That sounds like recognition for his efforts to me. (I never said respect.)

You know what is utter nonsense? The fact that you are whining about not getting an award and criticizing the result as biased. Sure, people will vote for their favorites, it's like that in any type of award on the planet. Is that so far from the truth? Cake is without a doubt one of the best GTA IV player out there. The Firm has proved to be the best new gang in the section especially cause of its attitude and the way they present themselves in the forums. With all the drama that has been going on among the new gangs it is only obvious that the only group that was never involved and that has a mature way of behaving in the forums would get an award. The Yardies are the oldest gang in the section and a lot of people surely wanted to award this fact. They are respected outside the section and they obviously contributed to Multiplayer in many ways. AoD and D12 might as well won the award for the same reasons. They didn't but nobody got butthurt cause of that. And that's the right attitude to have when you're part of one of the 3 surviving big gangs from 2008. You respect and you get respect. Especially when you lose. Turf Wars is an event that has been going on for 4 years. It started in the IV Multiplayer section and the success of the topic back in 2008 (together with the success of its DTW Cup branch topic) convinced the GTAF Staff that an Event Section was needed, and so an Events section was created. Both topics gathered over 250 participants during the past 4 years. Literally thousands of matches with GTAF members from all gangs or non affiliated have been played so far. It never won a GTAnet award beside the commendation medal I got on a personal level, probably this time voters wanted to award an event that made into it GTAF Events history. Andy's Gang League had flaws in its past and I've been among the ones that pointed them out but it is a fact that Andy has been the only one that ever tried to organize such type of event and he kept doing it for the past 3 years without giving up no matter how big the criticism was. Whether his organizing choices have been right or wrong, his commitment to the event is admirable and real. So people will award such commitment when it's time to vote. If your events weren't nominated nor got an award it is only because of your attitude and possibly the lack of community respect generated by such attitude. Your events are indeed well set and presented and also gathered a fair amount of success and participants. The problem is that every time you've been whining about people not joining them or people not showing at the set time and every time you included things like "pussy" lists for gangs that didn't sign up or posted tidbits of advertising here and there, every time you did such things you have been harming your own events and precluded your chances of winning an award and getting the respect your events deserved for being well set, presented and organized. Now, I've got nothing against you nor I think you're an idiot but posts like the ones I quoted are indeed laughable and stupid.

Not whining, how many times do I need to state this?

I was disappointed but I'm not crying or losing sleep about it, I know the truth is, Cakepicnic deserved reward but AndyGanteks? I'm sure he'd be the first to admit he probably didn't.

Turf wars - best event of 2011, when it's been hosted from 2008 and has built a fan base deserved to win too, didn't know it never recieved any sort of recognition until now.

The Firm best new gang? That's laughable, only good thing to say for them, is that they didn't get involved in gang drama?
Shut the f*ck up! The highway Reapers MC, The Lost MC are all better "new gangs" to the forum, they play GTA, they involve themselves in the community and they dont just spam messages to eachother in their topics. Sorry but it's true.

So what about the Yardies? Didn't mention them at all? Gang League 2011? No comment needed, 2011 was first time I was involved.

Attitude and lack of respect? I respect those that deserve it, like yourself, who are truthful, kind and speak honestly.Pussy lists and asking people to support an event, one's a joke and the other has nothing to do with respect.

Wait am I missing something? I never knew you have to play GTA IV to be a gang on this forum When GTA V comes out we will be playing that but GTA IV MP just got boring and I'm sick of these stupid 12 year old kids thinking it's real sh*t. The gang section needs people like me, mrpain, Mati, 4Bagger, Butters and Claude94 who are laid back and just play for fun and talk to eachother on the forum or on Xbox Live.

All I can say is get over it!

For f*ck sakes, stop acting like a 6 year old girl about it. Those who won, won. Those who didn't, didn't. Stop taking them so seriously and crying that you didn't win. There's always next year. Now enough of this. Don't bother posting in here any more unless you've got something positive to add.

Dude, there's nothing worse than loosing a virtual award. Now he'll never be as popular on the internet. That's terrible. I feel you bro. That's serious business. Sorry.

Fireguy, don't you come off as something special either, I appreciate the KIND words, I'm here not to be enemies with fellow GTA fans, so why join that corrupted band-wagon. I'm here as they say, "I come in Peace", but perhaps will leave in Pieces ??

I never expected as much hassle as I've seen in near ten years, but this second time of Most Improved won't fall to the way side like last-time. I've asked Mods to help me out here, since I think Off Topic is on and no one seems to believe when I tell the truth, I just believe in coming "straight from the Heart", to paraphrase Canadian Bryan Adams. Also hope to hang out indefinitely

Should also tip my hat to Narcis if I neglected to, he didn't draw lines in the sand when he helped me and PCguy out, and we're eternally appreciating that as well

There were only two nominations in that category. If you tally the total number of votes and the votes earned by 1st place and 2nd place, you'll notice that they add up exactly, so no 3rd place.

Slammy, let me tell you something. You blew any chance of deserving that award when you came in on page 4 and started acting like a dick. You've improved a bit, I suppose, since you no longer derail every topic you see (around 1/3 now) but I still think there were others who deserved that award more. A lot more.

I can't believe you just said that.

It's possibly because members who voted from him were mostly from the V forum.

Why do another syntax corrupting quote with that? He should rightfully be the most ANNOYING since he's been disparaging the Housers and Rockstar nearly without fail, in the worst way, sure, we're all a bit discouraged by their promotion scheme, but other people have handled it mucho better then Zee, he personally is afronted by it!?

As for Respect this year, Where DID Tank place? I think Trip Mills should be on there nearly yearly! haha

Does all Tool are Script Mod ??
because Almost every tool is Written in a Programming Language & we can call them as a Script until they are Compiled.
Admins should think about this before they announce the result of Nomination

And is a Rigging Tutorial even a tool? o.o
I don't think so.

SCM or CLEO scripts are compiled aswell.

I was claiming the same thing here and I doubt that something will change. It may be even correct as the Voting Booth has been closed since a while and issues had to be solved in the meantime. By the way, the quality really matters as the ranking is.
