UNINSTALLING THE GTP MOD WIPES OUT THE ENTIRE ROOT DRIVE OF WHERE IT WAS
INSTALLED!!!!!
Flame warUninstall warning about the GTP mod descends into insults
Buster warned in capital letters that uninstalling the GTP mod wiped the root drive. Several replies mocked him, but after Team Redline confirmed a major install bug, Larry suggested that apologies were due. Others pointed out that the mod had no uninstall routine. The thread then became a personal slanging match between cuk and Bruce Kennewell.

You sure it didn't happen when the power was cut from your trailer?

Pity you didn't install it on your C:\ drive buster. Any chance you could
sort of not post here at all? I'd really appreciate it.

I guess the guy was right.
From the website:
"We are very sorry to announce we had, as many found, a major bug with the
install of the MOD and have to solve the issues. An update is in the works
and soon hopefully a return."
I believe a few apologies to this gent are in order...

Me thinks the "bug" is more likely to be the actual installation routine.
Besides some users' inability to even complete the installation, there's
also the problem of it hosing the NR2003 installation if you try to install
GTP on top of it. If the bug were as large as wiping out an entire drive, I
would think (hope) they'd issue a big fat warning. Heck, I can't even find
a shortcut to uninstall though there are a few executables in the GTP
directory that look like they're it.
Anyway, buster's contributions to RAS have been limited to random bits of
flaming, so I'd take anything he says with a grain of salt.

This reminds me of a story about a boy who cried "Wolf".
Sorry buster.

WRONG. How can there be an uninstall bug when there is no actual
uninstall routine/program in the mod? To uninstall the mod, all you do
is delete the Redline GTP folder.
Please check your facts, people, before feeding the trolls. I'm sure
we'll know more about the "major bug" in a few days time, but I'm 100%
certain it's got nothing to do with uninstalling the mod.

Brucy baby, you once wrote:

However, in your case I'll ma"

Let's face it, you are a fucking hypocrite, Bruce. Google threw up many
more examples of you 'going for the jugular'.

Perhaps, but I don't think the situations are comparable.
At least my education gave me a vocabulary consisting of more than
four-letter adjectives.

Looks like you're stuck on four-letter verbs, as well, Mr. Smith.
Might I suggest that you grab yourself both a Thesaurus and a Dictionary
....or maybe even a primary-school English primer, for starters?

..and according to google, you always go on about how your 'education'
is better than anyone who makes the mistake of arguing with you.

You >definitely< need a dictionary, Mr. Smith.....you're so illiterate that

On second thoughts, perhaps a kindergarten education would be your best
course of action.

The word 'go' is probably missing.
I prefer to destroy all sources of bullshit personally. As is evident on
this planet at the moment, my lot aren't doing a lot of winning.
