posting videos of pirate versions of games, Multiple posts pointing to competitors, Either directly or indirectly. Loads of spam, Not specific to GTA.

You don't understand why that annoyed some people??

They were not forced to continue reading the thread.

The posts of videos stopped yesterday when we were told we could not post them.

All of the talk today has been about who is getting the game and when.

Exactly, lots of people were posting hints and asking for emails. All of which is against the rules, if you can't follow them then you should not be surprised by the consequences.

Couldn't you have just removed the last 10 pages instead of the whole thread? This only started yesterday, what a waste

Those that contributed to the closure of that thread should really be a bit embarrassed. Having to have a mod close it and start another one up with all the rules laid down form the start...****, it's like looking after kids.

Exactly the reason as when I knew GTA4 had been leaked, I stayed out of the thread completely. It was obvious this was going to happen. People posting links to gameplay video's and so forth.

yes you do have to click on them, so forshame those that did (Looks at ScarySquirrel

), but what can you do?

Well those people should have just been suspended no questions asked, rather than ruining it for everyone else who was posting within the forum rules.
