~provisional members~ LOTF GhostRyder
Thanks everyone for a great 1st year. Here's to many more to come!
You should also know (having been here over a year) that complaining about others on the LFS Forums is generally frowned upon. If you have a problem with Eagle Racing, you should contact them directly.
Sorry you had a problem with them. But it is their server and they can do what they like with it, including banning you. Not saying I agree with the why, what, how, because I don't know the circumstances.
Feel free to stop by one of our servers and race with us some time.
I think a mod should probably clean up these last few posts.

1. Swearing: We generally won't ban for swearing. We will ask you not too. If you keep swearing anyway, you will get kicked. If you come back and don't behave, you get banned for a period of not less than 3 months. Children do play this game. Everyone should keep that in mind.
2. Abuse: Abuse is not allowed on our server. Treat others how you like to be treated. If you like to be abused, they're plenty of other places to go. Abusing other racers will get you banned for a period of not less than 6 months. Abusing a team member will get you pema-banned.
3. Bitching: Blue flag cry babies and the like are asked to calm down. If they refuse, they are kicked. If they come back and act like a tool, they will get banned for a period of not less than 3 months.
4. Flag violators: Disobeying flags will get you warned. A second time gets you kicked.
5. Crashing: No warnings, no kicks. You blatantly crash on our servers and you will find yourself with a lifetime ban. Track sitting will get you a lengthy ban as well.
LOTF servers are part of the "Wrecker Barricade" network. If you get reported, chances are you will find yourself banned from our servers whether or not you were ever there before.
These are my criteria for banning on LOTF servers. Depending on moods and whos admining, criteria may differ.
All in all, I believe we at Land Of The Free are more than fair.
Actually he was banned for abusing other players on our server during our team night. The comments about hunting people down came after the fact when he wanted to dispute his ban. He is not affiliated with LOTF in any way nor has he ever been.
I will not go into further detail as this matter was handled internally among LOTF and the fellow who was banned. We would like to keep it that way.
Yeah they have those in Mesa, Az. Loop 101 they put cameras up and I believe I heard they are mailing tickets for anything over 2mph over the posted limit. They said on the news that the first night they were activated, they caught 175 people speeding, all of which were going to receive tickets via mail.
EDIT: This reminds me of a funny story I heard on the radio: This guy was apparently caught running a red light on camera. He received a letter from the court with a picture of his car and plate and a fine that said he owed $40. So thinking he was clever, and the lack of an actual cop pulling him over, he took a picture of two $20 bills and mailed it back to the courthouse. So the Sheriff, being even a little more clever, took a picture of a pair of handcuffs and sent it back to the man. The court got their money within a week.
Have you ever seen a set of white lines on the shoulder, then a little further seen another set?
A guy with a stopwatch above you in an airplane times you from line set to line set, looks at his chart, and figures out your speed. If you are indeed speeding they radio ahead to one of many cops just waiting to pull you over. I know this because it has happened to more than one person I know.
Still your basic speed trap, just a whole lot more advanced.
I've been married almost a year, dated her for 4 years prior, so she knew what she was getting into. She hates computers with a passion, but finds it pretty fascinating that I can get online and play games with people from all over the world. She complains sometimes about me being online too much. But, I figure she will get over it I mean, the only games I play are LFS and Enemy Territory, how much time can that take?
Seriously, I wouldn't trade her for the world, I'm very lucky.
I have replays distributed through SamH's website. If you want them, ask him not me. As far as I'm concerned they are for Admin viewing only. I feel that they were 100% intentional, that's how I came to my conclusion. Admins aren't "mighty" they are only here to try to keep LFS clean, something you wouldn't bitch about if you weren't in the wrong in the first place. I also do not have a stick in my ass, KTHXBYE.
Being a smart ass won't help you either. You didn't hit a nerve with me, I simply don't like people getting banned and then coming here to bitch. I never said I didn't like you. I am trying to give you advice on how not to get banned and stay banned. I don't need to bother you, you posted in a thread full of server admins, what the hell do you expect?
I still say that if you apologized you would find that your permanent bans weren't so permanent.
I have 4 replays of you crashing, and none of them were after "the end".
Therein lies the problem. A smart person would simply play by the rules, apologize, shut up, hope for the best, and just go race. But instead you have to keep pushing your luck with server Admins on this board.
That's the attitude that got you on 86'd in the first place.
There will be less servers for you to join now that you posted here.
You're not helping yourself either.
If people would simply accept responsibility for their actions, and apologize in these threads instead of arguing, they would find their bans lifted more frequently.
