I don't know if you read his notice on the thread but this is what is said.

"We ask that people DO NOT return to this location, as I have terminated the permit for the use on the grounds and asked the Gloucester County Administration, not to grant anyone else further use, in fear of someone getting hurt " - Gabe

I don't think he told the police, by Administration he probably means Chad Bruner, the contact in the original letter.

Although I could see people being upset, you also have to understand that his name was directly linked to the meet, although I personally don't agree with how he carried out the so called termination of the meet, But I do think if they are no longer going to be attending the meet and moderating it, they have to let the people who own the property know in case something does happen Gabe can not be held liable if his name is no longer used a contact to the meet. You gotta remember this is America, you can be sued for anything.

Although I personally wouldn't have handled this particular situation in this type of fashion, But I know for 100% I would let the owners of the lot know that I will no longer be attending nor moderating to be 100% sure that I will not be held liable in the future for anything that can happen.

Telling them that he's no longer using the location is fine. Telling them they shouldn't let anyone else use the property in a similar way is just completely selfish.

I havent really said anything because me and jordan passed the reins over. But imma speak up now and let yall know,who havent been here since the beginning about this whole thing,a small time line story.
  • I,along with 6 or so of my friends,were hanging out at the local car wash one night around mid sept
  • We stayed out there til 2 am until the cops came and started harrasing us even though we were still detailing our cars while BS'in at a 24/7 car wash
  • that night,jordan and I decided we wanted to start a local meet instead of having to drive everywhere and get all the local heads that we knew involved
  • he brought up the idea of wanting a place that we could go no matter the weather,and i suggested the parking garage
  • We sent out texts in masse to the local heads,even if we hated some of em,to get a decent meet. The first turnout was only about 7 cars. This lasted for 3 weeks with just the same group
  • The next week i started getting random texts asking about a "garage meet" in woodbury,and suddenly we filled a level of the garage
  • The next week we filled 2 levels of the garage and every one behaved,it was all locals having a good time,that is until the police showed up and argued with me even after getting clearance by police the weeks prior.
  • Gabe had msg'd me on TST asking about getting it back started,so i said lets make some calls.
  • After a month of emails,playing phone tag,and annoyance i got an email from gabe with the permit all typed out
  • the first thursday of the new year,we set the meet back up and had a good attendance,and behavior was outstanding,the police showed up in a good group to try and shut us down,but with the permit they got over ruled. defeated they rolled through and left
  • the next week,we got a little more crowded and apparently word started to spread,greg and christian of kamikazi customz offered to be our meet sponsors
  • Excited for the upcoming event i was ready with jordan and gabe to get this bad boy rolling into a success
  • That night brought more of a headache then anything,as 5 times the amount of cars showed up then previous weeks,pushing the garage to its limit
  • Week after week we filled the garage,and ran around trying to keep the noise down,prevent asshattery(burnouts,revving,etc) As we were ordered by the administration to keep it under control
  • Months go by and no one wants to step up and help us,jordan starts getting weary and calls it off for a weeks.
  • Fast forward,still no one wants to step up but everyone wanted to bitch. The assholes are starting to outnumber the good guys and still limited help
  • greg goes away and christian dosent want anything to do with it anymore,i feel their plight but go to the garage this thursday as planned
  • after repeatedly telling the same people to stop week after week of revving,blasting the music,and plain stupidity ive had it,jordan bailed and i told gabe i was through,he can have the meet.

Q & A

Its not selfish RP,gabe,along with jordan and my name are on the permit,so if some **** went down we would be the first to have our asses reamed. And when im through,im clearing my association with the meet and its activities

gabe, why are you suddenly throwing ur arms up and shutting this down? there is a letter from the county that this is OK.

yeah, +1 on why u said something to the county.

WTF is with everyone???? I havenet been in 2 weeks, so i dont know WTF is going on.

Apparently its to much to handle, but i also feel its better they gave up maybe the people who dont know how to follow some simple ****ing rules need the cops to come in amd kick them outto get it through their ricey heads.
Although I can say kid with the toyota with the bed cover should be kicked out if people still show up there considering he speeds throught the garage like a jack***. Red street dreams integra since for some reason he cant keep his music down. And some ricey saturn who felt the need to blast the tokyo drift song. Those are the only people i physically saw being dbags. Sorry if you guys are on here but im stating the facts.[/QUOTE]

He told the county not that no one should be allowed back in,more to notify them that we no longer are responsible for the garage and that we want our names and the permit revoked to protect our own asses.

Yall are more then welcome too,if you guys can keep the ass-hattery alone i think they'll leave you alone.

It was more a warning to yall to just be notified of whats happening and that TST along With Myself,Jordan,and Gabe,are no longer associated with the meet,the thread was shut down because it was no longer TST sanctioned

I only suggested to Chads office that this location is not suitable and able to be controlled. I didn't contact police or the sheriffs office or anything like that.

Goodluck with the meet... I know I won't be there on Thursdays anymore. I hope you guys get it under control!!!

Just wanted to clear all that up so there isn't any bad blood.

Wow for real Gabeeeeeee....
I mean you didn't have to do that. That's an immature move on it's own. IMO I guess. All you had to say was that you're not in 'control' of this meet. Not shut down a location. Or why not ask for help with it or something? I don't understand this.

How can you shut down a meettttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt t

the issue is that the random ricer comes in and f's it up.

I personally went OFF on a lil black K-23 swapped Del Slow. i mean i ran up to the car, stopped his ass and went OFF on him after he redlined it right behind me and gave me an anxiety attack. I told him people have been to places where loud noise now freak them out. he apologized and then proceeded to redline again ouside the garage all the way down the street.

I have gone off on people. they dont care.

I have his licence plate number as well as some others that were being assholes. I should have called the cops but then we would have got shut down for sure.

all this because people in SLOW cars can't ****in behave. ****, I have a blower on my car, and NO ONE hears me revvin in that garage.

it's just ****ty. back to sonic we go i guess.......

we had a "secret spot" for a lil while because ricers were jackin u the sonic meets. it was nice. like 12 cars and no one acted a fool. it's gonna have to go back to the small groups that find a place to meet kinda thing.

That was a pretty dick move...you don't want your name on the permit? Fine, but don't turn it to **** for everyone else. Just cause you couldn't handle running it doesn't mean others will fail also. Good job dude, I wonder how many people will go to your next spot that will probbably be overpoliced and the "staff" will take their jobs way too seriously

How can you shut down a meettttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt t







It's not about the meet anymore, it's just about making people like them for being the "staff" and "admins", it's like if they can't be in charge, noone can come...time to bring back Sonic and show people how events should be run properly, without use of staff uniforms and rule sheets, but common sense. Who's down for proper Thursday Night meets?! I know JM is.
