Okay, after multiple requests and... well, nagging, I've decided, in my o' so great good will that I would give this thread ONE last try. Yes, that's right. If it does not work out this time, there will not be another try, ever. Therefore it's entirely up to you, the members of this community to keep this thread clean.

I have set up a simple set of rules which under all circumstances are going to be held. My fuse is extremely short on this, so breaching these rules will lead to the thread getting closed and the involved getting banned forever. I don't have time to watch this thread 24/7, so I'm counting on you lot to help me out.

Rules:

1) The rules are absolute and no exceptions are allowed. Breach the rules and you will face the consequences, no matter what.

2) No complaints about multiple screenshots from the same game being posted. This means absolutely no flaming, fighting or similar.

3) No spam. This thread is not going to function as a post count increaser. This is a thread for people to share pictures from their favourite games, not for general chit-chat. On-topic discussion of the images posted is however allowed.

4) If you see 50 screenshots from a game you hate posted in a row - simply ignore them. No one's interested in reading your rants. If you don't have anything positive or constructive to say, shut the hell up.

5) To keep the thread length at a resonable level, I'm going to cap the pictures per post at 10 - TEN - T-E-N. Ten (10) images per post.

6) To keep the thread clean I would prefer THUMBNAILS of huge images. This means that if your images are larger than 1280x1024, you're either going to have to resize them or link to a THUMBNAIL of the original picture.

7) If you can't follow the above rules, the life of this thread, and your membership here at Guru3D will be short. Very short.

That was it. Pretty damn simple, eh? We'll see. Note that I'm doing this purely on my own good will. The rest of the staff has given up this consept a long time ago, but naive as I might be, I still believe it can theoretically work. This may be a huge mistake, but I am willing to give it one last shot.

Happy posting.

I also want to use the occasion to congratulate you lot for keeping the thread so clean and problem free, for what I think is a record long time! Good job! Let's keep it this way in the future too. As a bonus I'll be open for suggestions on new rules/alteration of old rules/anything else useful for the thread.

Thanks.
