Well guys and girls this is the new name for roll call style threads on GiantBomb. The plan is every time one of these threads hits the 4000 post mark or there abouts we'll lock it down and start a new one, hence the v1.0 since this is the first official roll call like thread on GiantBomb. Some of you may dislike the name but we needed a name that wasn't roll call and wasn't some random name either. As much as i'm sure you liked having a thread with CaseyWegner's name in it, i didn't and so tough luck :)

So yeah enjoy!

Whats the point of this topic?

  • Essentially a place to put all those random thoughts and posts which don't necessarily deserve a topic on their own. Plus its a place for everyone to socialise and get to know other users aswell as members of the moderation team.

***PLEASE READ THE RULES!!!****

  • No Porn, Glamour, Erotic or other Nudity (revealing or see-through comes under this)
  • No Trolling
  • No Flame Wars, if you must argue take it to PM or better yet don't argue.
  • No Spamming, double posting, triple posting etc.
  • No Racism or other remarks that may insight hate.
  • No Illegal activities.
  • Have fun.

***Topics of interest you may want to check out***


Any questions or complaints about whats going on in this thread then please use the Community Rating Tool or PM a Forum moderator with details. These topics tend to get very large very quick so saying someone has posted things they shouldn't isn't too helpful for us. Please try to tell us the username and the page number in the topic so we can deal with it ASAP, thanks!

Essentially a place to put all those random and spam-like posts which don't necessarily deserve a topic on their own. Plus its a place for everyone to chill, say hi and get to know one another. Thats really all these threads are about to be honest.

Also rules have been added to the OP so i suggest everyone read them, memorise them and god forbid you should break them because i will strike you down, strike you down HARD!

Random discussion, to simply even more, it can be considered simply "plus one" to your post count. Can almost talk about anything here.

Why such early locks? First one went to like 9000, next thread went to 6000, and the last one only went to 4000. There's really not even a need to lock it at all, since all enyone ever does is just hit the last page button and post there :S

(Still in support of Zombies ate this thread dammit)

I need to change my view I guess.  Seems like I'm the only one who gives a F$#k, and because of that everyone comes to me to get work done/solve problems while  the others just skate by.

They still get paid so they don't care, and the boss, thought nice, would never fire anyone.  He's too nice.
Eehh.

Careers are a horrible byproduct of civilization. Quit your job, sell your house, and hitchhike to Peru.

The reason for the "early" lock is that threads get more difficult to manage on our end with size.  Then again...since all anyone ever looks at is the most recent few pages, it shouldn't matter...right?

i think the point your tryin to make is its too hard for mods to trawl through 100 pages to delete bad posts?

Post reporting tool works fine does it not? Seems there are generally a few mods on at all times to manage emergencies anyways.

Having a "wife" is also a horrible part of civility, as is marriage. Love need not be ratified by the church and state.

In other news, Soni just dominated and won a gold medal for Godmerica. W00t!
