Cheers Rob for opening this for us all. I seriously can't believe GMTV just closed like that! Everything, just gone 
I second that, thanks Rob.

All I can say is unbelievable about what happened, nearly 700 posts down the drain.
Oh well new start, 3 cheers to Rob

Rob, you've done a terrific job! It's great to see that the forums can live on. 
Like the rest of you, I can't believe that the old forums disappeared so suddenly -- especially after all of the recent progress with the DVDs!

Thanks for joining all, I'll look into getting a proper domain name tomorrow, then people can start posting the link around.
GamesmasterLive.??? (??? = .com, .co.uk, etc...) isn't really a go-er as most of the cheap and decent suffixes have been taken, same for Gamesmaster.???. we could have GamesmasterForum.com or GamesmasterLiveForum.com, both are available and cheap, but only because it's so specific and long, maybe GamesmasterTV.???. If we have something long and exact then the .com domain name is only about £6 a year. anyone else any ideas? having the word forum in the domain name will pretty much forever restrict this to a forum only site, but to be honest I just tended to look at the forums of the old site, rarely the main site anyway?
I've already found the pefect favicon to add too.

Hey guys I'm back too! I can't believe the guy just shut it down like that. I even offered to pay for a month of running the site and regular donations after that!
What a tosser. Why didn't he let someone else take over the site as I think HAD0KEN recommended. He'd rather delete everything rather than see it turned over to someone else...

Hello!
Some may remember me. I used to run a GM website from 2002-05.
I also worked with Rob on the original DVD project last year, by lending tapes and pointing to various other bits of material.
Great to see there's still a loyal hardcore that remain. Obviously we all move on in life and develop different interests as we get older, but it's still nice to be able to share the common connection of being an early-90s child growing up in a really exciting time for videogames and telly!
