I know GIB's 2♠ is agressive,sometimes with decent hand,so I decide to bid 3♠ for invitation,when I bid 3♠,3♠ is alerted as 25hcp+,forcing.but actually GIB seems to know my 3♠,and pass.

That kind of 3S bid is handy for those newfangled decks that contain additional aces and kings. Soon to be introduced at every bridge club at which I play in an attempt to stop me complaining about not getting any cards :)

IMO GIB should just play what it does over weak twos on this auction. 3S shouldn't be invitational, just further preemption. With an invite bid 2nt, forcing, as over a weak two, GIB can bid a feature with max.
