    Beamng is pretty damn dead.
    I'm sure you'll pull some log out of your ass showing where there was a discussion there like a week ago or something.
    And everyone is an asshole in #offtopic.
    I really don't understand why you push irc so much.

    What stops you from modifing the nickname? :confused: Once pinned the link won't change.

    If more of you active folks would be on IRC it wouldn't be "dead". Also sometimes you have to stay more then 5 minutes.

    Also: "IRC is dead" saying the people posting every 2 hours in a chat thread. *facepalm*

    Just close/delete this thread, add a rule to not have chat threads and force people to use IRC. Problem solved. :cool:

    so, does anyone know where to buy a reference gtx 970? (the one with the titan style cooler)

    so far only best-buy seems to have it (i've checked newegg (only available in a combo with an ibuypower pc), amazon, fry's, and micro-center (even though clsoest one is 6 hours away))

    Forcing people to use a system that they don't want to doesn't often turn out to well, just ask Google+.

    Here is an idea:
    Let people who like the IRC, use the IRC.
    Let people who like the forum thread, use the forum thread.

    I think giving people the choice to use what they want to is probably the ultimate winning strategy.

    Does anyone know who "corey" is on steam, i just got a friend request and they don't seem to play the types of games anyone that i know IRL would play (mostly vehicle sims). So maybe they are one of you guys?

    @aljowen Well then i want Offtopic threads being removed from the "What's New?" search. K?
    Because this thread always is on top because some nonsense was posted.

    That is fine by me, I didn't realize that anyone actually used that. I just find some threads that i like and then get email updates on them, sadly i cannot figure out how to get email updates working for this thread though. Although maybe that's for the best:p

    @aljowen Then my mail inbox would look like daniel_j's ... messy and 1000s of mails. No thx. I'm unsubscribing again and again and again. (I know there is a checkbox to not subscribe but that thing is apparently not stored in the cookies.)

    So me and my dad just picked up my truck from the body shop. It looks great to finally not have completely rusted out rocker panels. I'll see if I can't find a 'before' pic and then snap an 'after' pic.

    @14something Guess what i did the whole time. *facepalm* Also remember this is the useless-chat-thread-where-everyone-can-post-what-they-want-thread. No need to rage cutie.

    While we are at it i also want a "Add to ignore list" feature when clicking on ones name. Thx.

    Then you should manage your inbox properly. Since i have my phone connected to my email and my email client open when i am on my PC i always get notified about new emails. I will then glance to see what it is and quickly decide if i should read the email now or if it can wait a couple mins. If it is someone actually contacting me then i usually respond within minutes, if it is a forum post it can depend. Once i am done with an email i just tick if off as been read. I currently have 9 emails that are unread that are pretty much a to do list for school stuff.

    I find this system works really well. Using Gmail and the Opera mail client. I use the same system on my phone but in a different way.

    Depending on how you want "add to ignore" to work it could be really awful. If you want it to hide all messages by ignored users then things would quickly go to crap. Some questions would get 5 identical answers by different people who cant see each other and im fairly sure things would go down due to other members getting irritated due to your inability to see their comments.
