And finally Theace37, the standard practice for proving 'possession/ownership' is to include in the pics a note with "GTP" and your username in it. If you have a receipt or three for a unique item(s), that would also dissuade people claiming they belong to a third party (which given your time delay, now is the obvious go-to response).

No! Really?
And with the , I was hoping that my post came across tongue-in-cheek. If I wanted to get into Theace about his model car collection, I would have done so by now.
Well we have already proven that as he has admitted that it's a GMP model not a CMC
All of this nonsense over a typo? Seriously?The first. A mistake.

Der Alta;1588634[COLOR="Red"]Don't you just love it? Seeing as how this is a community based around a Racing Video Game, we often get the excitable members that like to make ludicrous claims. Yes, you've seen them.
"I've got a 700hp Supra that's a daily driver"
"I've got a Mustang slammed on 20's that'll smoke anything you've got"
"My dad drives a 600hp Porsche"
"I drift a Skyline"
"I drag a 685hp mustang"
The usual claimant is in their early teens and loves to quote rear wheel horse power and dyno charts and $6000 in suspension upgrades, among other fabrications. Along with this comes the attitude/ego to match the size of the engine Horsepower.
In three years here, I've seen some fantastically fun ones. I'm sure that others can come up with a few as well.
I'm putting out a standard challenge. If you make a ludicrous claim, you need to post a picture of it, along with a hand written sign on the car. The sign shall have "GTplanet.net" and your member name on it.
If you can't post that image (Hey, you can dump $6000 on a suspension, $15 on a digicam at the local store isn't much) then your claim will be stamped "ludicrous" and you'll be cast out, as well as made the laughing stock.
If you guys find fun ones, post em up in here

Honestly, this thread is right now comparable to me saying I have a chihuahua, then getting thrown on the floor, someone saying I can't possibly have one if I'm the epitome of manliness that I am, then abusing me verbally until I finally decided to show proof that yes, I do own a chihuahua, and he's wonderful.
I'm just saying, I'd title this thread "Ludicrous Claims: Pedantic Asshattery"

Well we have already proven that as he has admitted that it's a GMP model not a CMC, we have also disapproved his second claim that he is looking to buy and quote "money no object" 1/18 scale car yet turned down the $3,000,000 diamond and gold Veyron.
It stands by the aup that you shouldn't be posting false and misleading information.
Keep in mind it was an Admin that posted this thread. Criticising this thread is criticising an Admin - and therefore besmirching GTP.
Sorry. That's life. Study Civics.
Also - the flavour of the thread has changed; when the thread was first posted, it made a lot of sense. The idea behind it seems to have deteriorated.
From the OP:
What makes it worth that money?
On the other hand, there's always Flickr, Imageshack, Photobucket, Imgur, Facebook, Google+, Tumblr, and even Instagram to host images.
Oh, by the way, if he gets proven to be a liar, what actually happens? Does he get a virtual slap on the wrist?
All of this nonsense over a typo? Seriously?
And lets be honest when is someone claiming they can afford something " money no object " not a Ludicrous claim
I suggest the Bourne novels. They are pretty well written (even the extension novels by people other than Robert Ludlum are pretty good), and they will take up a lot of your free time.

Pretty silly to make a federal case out of it.
Or....... He simply copy/pasted his list and didn't bother to change it. Regardless, still not seeing the big deal.Actually no if you go back and look at the posts he originally claimed he had a CMC 330 p4 I actually did correct him on it being a GMP 330 P4 but again he still claimed it was a CMC if you look at the posts they actually ranged from September through to December if he wishes to admit its a typo 4 months later then sure he can but why not at the time?
