[QUOTE=Jobby;24111748]You are 1000 times worse than any of the shitposters or trolls we've had in this threads, whether they were from CCOF or not. In fact most GGTers are embarrassing to talk to and people like soderholm make me ashamed to be considered "one of them" by lurkers or anyone who looks at my posting history or knows my name from the OPs of these threads. Please try to improve your posts here and stop dragging the rest of us down with you. And hey, Makol's brother, before you commentate on this, fuck off pal.[/QUOTE] Not me though :ohdear: Also, all vote for jobby to get a gift from jobby.

[B]The History of This Thread[/b] As told by Jobby's PMs. THIS IS A HISTORY LESSON. WE ARE GOING TO LEARN ABOUT THE GGT BEFORE ANY OF YOU WERE EVEN [I]BORN[/I]. So sit down and shut up and don't shift around in your chairs. [i]GGT in General Discussion[/i] A fresh faced Jobby steps into the Gift Giving Thread. His posts are ignored, he is a nobody. He is not accepted by the GGTers. But his fortunes are about to change because he is ready to give his first gift, and Bioshock is in the Christmas sale that day. So he asks, "Who want's Bioshock?!" [QUOTE=CaptainQuirk]I'd love it.[/QUOTE] And there you have it, my first ever GGT related PM. The game actually went to Mobrockers who quoted me super fast in the thread. And then people took notice of me. "Hey this is interesting, this person seems able to spend money as if it was nothing. This could be an interesting event in the GGT. And so came the begging PMs. [quote=dutchah]Dear sir, wouldst thou spare 2,50 for 1 (one) copy of Medieval 2 Total war for a poor yet honest and good person? Yay, thou hast given already, but pleas art always worthee of a shot.[/quote] There is dutchah in his element. He would do this from time to time, mainly over Steam. We would form a good friendship until one day he would suddenly betray me in order to win over new poster who had started gifting a lot. He has since been permabanned and that poster has ragequit because we wouldn't give him any money. Many GGTers have been once loved and have fallen out of favour from the threadspeople. Inacio is more hated than he is loved now, but back then he was one of the guys that everyone asked me to gift for being such a nice, helpful person. [QUOTE=Inacio][QUOTE=Jobby]Everyone has said you deserve a gift so what would you like?[/QUOTE] Trine, Garry's Mod (for a friend of mine), Unreal Pack or Killing Floor, Torchlight or CS:S. Any of those. :unsmith: Thanks a lot sir.[/QUOTE] And so the gifting went on. I received literally hundreds of PMs during the Christmas sale. The thread was viewed by a massive amount of posters in General Discussion compared to the average 15 lurkers we have now. So everyone wanted gifts. However Steam soon put an end to my gifting reign and locked my account from buying any more gifts. But not to worry, it was soon fixed. Here is a conversation I had with someone who had absolutely no relationship with the thread. This PM is a rare artifact, it was back in the days where the GGT wasn't a circlejerk. People would drop in and others would gift out of sheer kindness, no matter who they were or what they had gifted before. [QUOTE=cdrw5][QUOTE=Jobby][QUOTE=cdrw5][QUOTE=Jobby][QUOTE=cdrw5][QUOTE=Jobby][QUOTE=cdrw5][QUOTE=Jobby]I'll gift you it :v:[/QUOTE] Oh thanks if you would :exited:[/QUOTE] I tried to add you on Steam but it says you're ignoring me :nyd: What's your e-mail and I'll send it that way?[/QUOTE] Cheers! I will mention you on the gift threat if that's ok? Send it to [email]martijnlejeune_5@msn.com[/email] Don't know what happened.[/QUOTE] Hi, dunno if you've seen my post in the thread but Steam is giving me grief when I'm buying through Paypal. Don't worry, I'll still buy you the game even if it's after the sale ends :3:[/QUOTE] Oh saw your reply to late thank you, sure I can wait ;)[/QUOTE] Hi, Just to let you know I finally managed to send you Mirror's Edge. Steam had locked my account for fraud protection reasons :rolleye: Happy Christmas.[/QUOTE][/QUOTE] The above PMs were sent on the 25th December 2009. This person never spoke to me again, but it didn't matter because I was pleased that I improved his Christmas Day. That's all I cared about. I was soon back on top. Steam had unlocked my account and--- [QUOTE=12mile][QUOTE=Jobby][QUOTE=12mile]u give benji bf2?[/QUOTE] Yup..[/QUOTE] would you be kind to buy me star wars? lol[/QUOTE] ...the beggars returned. Christmas was over, and people were not satisfied with what their parents had bought them. But there was still a Steam sale on. [QUOTE=JolKally]Sorry if i sound like a beggar but can you gift me something? My parents are bums and i don't have a credit card of any sort.[/QUOTE] JolKally had a brief reappearence recently. He didn't stick around long. [QUOTE=Gordon Frohm]hope this doesn't sound like begging, but do you still have money left to spend on really cheap Steam gifts? I'd really like one or two :love: been giving away hundreds of games in form of cd-keys in the gift giving thread: [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showpost.php?p=19257971&postcount=825[/url][/QUOTE] Maybe this wasn't for me afterall. I mean these people are just vultures. They don't even like me, there isn't a sense of community here at all. But then... [QUOTE=solid_jake]Dear HoF Inductee, Let me be the first to congratulate you on your hard work on coming into the Hall of Fame. The GGT Staff and I would like to thank you for your work in the thread, keeping it alive with your gifting, and your overall acts of kindness to everyone. The public agrees, you deserved this spot. Of course what you see as a simple act of kindness the GGT staff sees as something that needs to be rewarded, so, as a token of our appreciation, we give you these benefits exclusive to RD's and HoF'ers, aswell as a few extra for HoF'ers: - You gain TRIPLE slots in any official GGT raffle that takes place (For Instance, the MW2 raffle) - You are auto added to any raffle that takes place, so you can rest easy knowing you won't miss a thing - Besides that shiny banner in the OP for everyone to view, you are a role model now to everyone. I and the GGT staff would like to thank you for this, and I hope you are not disappointed with the perks. Sincerely, solid_jake, and The Gift Giving Thread Staff[/quote] In a massive landslide vote, I was inducted into the GGT Hall of Fame (this is now just a collection of stupid banners that nobody looks at). I was never given any of those perks. [quote=Solid_jake]Hello Jobby, This is message from me and the staff that would like recruit you into the GGT staff. Once here you will be consulted with issues pertaining to the thread discussing it with all the rest of the staff. We could use your help, seeing as you're such a rolemodel to the public. Sincerely, solid_jake Painseeker Prodigy Blynx[/QUOTE] Ah how the mighty have fallen. Look at the people who were in charge of the GGT back then. Jake? Missing in action, wants nothing to do with us anymore. Painseeker Almost universally hated. Prodigy? Driven out of the community by idiots. Blynx? Well, that was for the best. I was about to join the highest ranks of the biggest faggot thread on Facepunch. [QUOTE=Painseeker][QUOTE=Jobby][QUOTE=Painseeker]Do I win?[/QUOTE] Yes[/QUOTE] Awesome :love: Steam is Painseeker1 If you don't want to add me, e-mail is [email]painseeker@hotmail.co.uk[/email][/QUOTE] This is how I added Painseeker to Steam. How much richer would I be right now if I had just e-mailed him this gift? But not all PM's were bad: [QUOTE=Turbis2]i cant buy geams becas me papi and mami r dead lol so i r liek por and shit. byu me some gaems plz lol kthx my steam is turbosniglen add me lolo c u i only has 115 gaems kthx[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Thund3rdome]helo cn u plz by me gms i r por n a dont hv god pc but crisis run god on windswos 94 rite rhhthx[/QUOTE] These are my two favourite people in the GGT. Until this point the GGT was a reletively peaceful place, people got on with each other. There was no trolls or "bad guys". Luckily a bad guy soon came, in the form of TheMetalMan: [quote=]how much are you willing to drop on a game for me shaving my ass and posting a picture of it on FP? I might consider it[/quote] MetalMan got stranger. He stalked Pascall, found pictures of her and raffled them off. He was eventually permabanned for being a "fucking creeper". Away from all that he is a really cool guy to talk to. But he was a fucking creeper. The sale ended and the thread became... pointless. Everyone left apart from twenty or so of us and we began upping our post counts and spamming GD to death. Despite being such a small community we would have a new thread every other day. [QUOTE=Leviathanos]You said you wanted one :P [url]http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/2333/jobby.png[/url][/QUOTE] This is a Valentines card I got. This is how bad the GGT became after the sale, and how desperate people became for me to gift them full priced games. But it wasn't all roses for long: [QUOTE=Overworld]"If you have a problem with the latest version of the thread, please join the cool cats of facepunch chat and let us know about any problems you might have with it" Please tell this to your chat.[/QUOTE] A war was coming, and GGT was going to lose. [b]TO BE CONTINUED[/b] :frog:
Continue, I wanna keep reading :v:
Boy, am I glad theres nothing but good things about me in that post :frogdowns:
GGT is shit as a community ofcourse it's gonna lose a war.
Now I know twice as much of GGT as I did. Pretty good, even the power waited till I've read it and only went off after I wanted to post.
