Why don't you search one of the billion threads then?

Quote from Dajmin :

I have to point out that this doesn't make me think you've been hassled by a bully in the past. We've ALL been told "Oh, ignore them and eventually they'll get bored and move on" but it's simply not true.
Bullies don't have the intellect to realise you're intentionally ignoring them - it's not your reaction (or lack of it) that they're feeding off, it's the very act of doing it. And as long as they're doing it, they'll never get bored.

I spent years at school using the 'ignore' method, but it never helped. The only thing that ever did was actually beating heads. I lost a couple of fights, sure, but I won a load too. And every single person who started something stopped it right after that, win or lose.

As a matter of fact I have been bullied a lot at school, though I have never faced the ''Give me your money or I'll beat you to a pulp'' luckily. It was more in the lines of ''Haha! Look at you! I'm big and you're small and I can do whatever I want to you.''
Ignoring them maybe didn't always fend them off, but it certainly saved me lots of grief and hate...I didn't ignore them intentionally, I truly found it funny and sad, it clearly shows ones intellectual level.
Agreed, on a couple occasions I had to throw my fists in it, only because I received a blow though after laughing them off. I never engaged hostilities. I had a nice circle of friends and other ways of being intellectually occupied then by this circus. Every second waisted thinking about this is a second waisted of your life.

Quote from BigDave2967 :

I have been mature about it, he got 2 huge kick in the balls when myself, and a friend on seperate occasions put him down because of his attitude, and he felt completely humiliated because they were both in public enclosures. We weren't going to do it during class, because we were studying for our exams. I did my kick in the balls with him during class while we were waiting for the tutor arrived.

Excuse me? Did I just read ''Kick in the balls?" Please tell me it's an english expression for something else...Or else you just confirmed my theory. If you already dirtied your hands like that then go ahead. You deserve each other, have fun!

Oh just ignore him...seriously. It's the only way to make him feel how ridiculous he is...If you do anything about it you're entering his game, and you should never enter a game you can't be sure to win.

Actually you should never enter a game like that period. Have you ever felt good after a fight? Even if you won? I always feel shitty and think that I would have been better off if it was avoided.

Something tells me though that to trigger this attitude you haven't been exactly mature about how you treated him before.

Hahaha! Great commentary...the stream + Lfs Remote make for great entertainment...I wish an F1 remote would exist!

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

Should stop all those people complaining about LFS being too expensive, $156 per year is crazy.

And that's the price if you don't use any additional content...

Not even a demo? I sure ain't shelling out 20 dollars just to try it for one month...unless I hear it's the messiah of racing sims...

Another thing that isn't clear is if the content will be available offline if you decide to stop the payments...

Riiiiight...

I think it's the first time I've actually felt sincerely sad about a celebrity dying...there's something I really liked about him!
Just another reminder that money and fame don't necessarily make happiness...

Kegel exercises ftw!

If you hope of being competitive and consistent I guess you'll have to get a wheel! Edit: I meant with the Bf1

I recently acquired a 400D too and since there seem to be a lot of photographers here, I'd like to ask some other questions...

Which program do you use for importing, retouching, cropping your pictures? I tried some like Acdsee, Lightroom etc but none of them came close in ease-of-use as a program that a friend showed me on a Mac (and I'm never too keen on giving plus points to a Mac :razz.

What particularly interests me is also batch cropping and batch framing pictures. A quick search on Google didn't give me any interesting options...Do you know any programs with these functions?

One thing ruins it for me...the fake wheel "thingies". They could have at least leave it black like before. Painting it like a wheel just makes it look cheaper. Guess they got some pressure from Bbs.

Another thing that I noted is that there are so many vertical fins it looks like it could not turn for its life! But that's probably due to my poor grasp on aeordynamic physics in turns...

I think you got the color tones and atmosphere just right! Nice work...
I wouldn't want to race on a track that looks that slippery though...

If you replace Om nom nom nom with Amiamiamiamiam or Yuuumyumyumyumyum do you get it?

Great work guys! Can't wait for Christmas

There

Nice to see there's going to be a new car!

Quote from Scawen :

Anyway, the FZ, XR and XF GTR and road car interiors are near complete and will be released as soon as possible.

Care to elaborate on that please? So does this mean that all cars interiors are getting updated? And it also means that the 2 next patches are going to be physics-wise incompatible?

I already do my share of advertising to the right crowd by wearing my Lfs shirt each time I go to my local kart track!

Yes, please rename the thread to Imax® windshield...

It's a great game! Never before in my life have I felt so compelled to finish a game in 2 days.

If you do it very meticulously it should cause no problem.

Just use the clone stamp tool, at let's say 12 pixels radius. Alt-left click on the area you want to sample and click on the area you want to replace. You'll have to do it hundreds of times to get a perfect result but it is very doable. Each time sample right next to the area you want to erase to keep the right skin texture and lighting.

Good luck!

Quote from Leprekaun :

I still believe in the possibility that anyone can be as good as Alonso, Raikkonen or any of them if they really dedicate or to be realistic, devote themselves to the sport.

Believe me, anyone that has ever managed to even drive an F1 has devoted his entire life to the sport...Remember that the guys driving these cars are the 22 current best overall racers in the world...22 guys from the thousands that have devoted their life to go to F1.
They don't pay you millions, and trust you with something that costs even more to try to be the best, you already have to be the best.

So I guess your best bet is to concentrate on each category and series at a time, and be the best there. Instead of dreaming about F1, first dream about finishing on the podium of an national kart championship race? And then dream about winning that championship, and then an international championship, etc etc etc. Don't bypass everything towards F1 directly, I think that's what's making you sound irrealistic the most.

Doesn't mean that because you did good on your first Solo flight that you're going to be an astronaut. You're in for about the same odds right now...

Edit: Or because you got cheered on a highschool play that you're going to win an Oscar.

Edit 2: Or because you grazed a woman's sideboob that you're going to become the Casanova of the 21st century.

Jesus I could be going on and on with this list but I'm getting too carried away...

You know, I've been thinking, What will happen post S-3? Like to the master server and to LFS world? like i dunno about two or three years after the final s-3 patch. What happens then?

Well I guess as long as the devs keep selling the product, they'll keep providing the services...

Riiight...seriously man, if you can do two and a half weeks you should easily beat this record...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randy_Gardner_(record_holder)

Quote from scoobyrbac :

mines about...2 and a half weeks suring the summer...on PC constantly, inet bill was HUGE!

Well that pretty damn amazing since the Guiness record is 11 days...

Quote from zeugnimod :

Why are you doing that? That's crazy.

My "record" is probably 20 hours or something.

Hehe I'm not doing it for fun actually...it's more a question of meeting deadlines...

I love sleeping!

33 years without sleep and without internet must be pretty damn boring in Vietnam...

Most I've done is 3 days working on a Archi project...Slept for 20 hours straight after that!
