Awesome Setu, some very good points put in there indeed.

I'll definetly be keeping those advices and questions stuck in my head. Would be a good way to remind myself when I race on go-karting or doing driving experiences in Knockhill.

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

I hope your team is more tolerant than me, because if someone who just joined a team I run said that I would kick them out straight away.

Same goes for me, but since I'm not in a team, I'd just kick you in the bum or nuts.

It was a bit rude what you said there Faster, it indicates that you are just there to use them, and not commit yourself as a team.

Tristan, if I had a pic of him, I'd work some PhotoShoppe magic while I have it open.

I do think that he is only doing this for attention, first it was his constant bitching about getting a STCC ban, which resulted in him getting a forum ban, then its been his bitching about random stuff, now this attention plea, then more of his bitching telling the mods to close this, when him just not posting and helping us without this worthless thread would have been good enough. James, if you have such a large ego that you must post to tell us that you are leaving, that hardly helps, seeing most of us don't even notice that you are here. Now if someone who I have even an Ion of respect for (namely everyone minus you) made such a thread, I would have given a drastically different reply, but you have brought it on by making such a big deal out of your STCC ban, when you just ****ed up.

Agreed, amonst the other posts regarding his attention seeking.

James you posted again when you claimed to leave the forum. Looks like I was right .

Take a chill pill dude, you are taking these things way out of proportion, and its not doing any good for your MG team.

this team will do till i get better and pro teams start look at me more.

Oh goody, we can hardly wait(!)

Patience is a virtue Faster111.

Quote from Der_Dude :

I live in the united states, so due to time difference it was a last minute change for me.

But anyways, it was a very exciting race for the complete distance. It was very difficult to lap some of the people and that last lap incident was ridiculous and i think it was intentionally, since the guy drove into me on the straight, after i was already in front. It is sad to get a win stolen. But "The End" drove a great race and he had a little bit more luck so he earned that victory as much as i would have done!

Lap 6 onwards, I slowed down for pace, until lap 16, I start to push and push. When I saw you gaining, I was hoping to hold you, as I knew automatically you had the better setup. Didn't last long as I made a mistake on T1, and you had an open road and took the lead.

By the time we reached lap 20. We pitted. With you 14 seconds ahead, I managed to shed time off from the pits, and carried on racing.

When the tyres fully cooled down, I was on a rampage, trying to use my backmarkers as an advantage from laps 25-30 to set 101s, and then 100s

Couldn't believe the two backmarkers holding you up took 5 seconds off on the last lap, with huge momentum, overtook and lead to the finish.

Awesome race, one of the best comebacks I have driven *even though backmarkers played into my hands for the win*

Awesome race!

See you tomorrow James .

I really think that you are overeacting to this whole thing.

Quote from Der_Dude :

Guys, thats realy bad organisation. You change the rules a few hours before the race. Everyone practiced for that race assuming there is no pitstop! And now you come up with a mandatory stop. I have no problem with pitstops - i have a problem with last minute rule changes! So everyone who is not part of ITEK is screwed over!

I will participate anyways, but i wanted to adress that critique. CU later.

This wasn't last minute. This change occured a few hours ago. If you guys practiced for no pitstops, then pits wont be a problem, as you wont need tyre changes .

Quote from Quint999 :

STFU was certainly not said by me , or any swearing at any point . If that was said , maybe someone else also disagreed

My 1st comment was "Do you mind not doing that, thats extremely annoying"

which to be faiir could have been much politer, so i apologise for any offence

Agreed its just my personal opinion so i'll STFU as well

My apologies, I should have stopped commentating on that comment. I was referring to myself as a way of saying "STFU" (My Dad says that to me as a laugh)

No one insulted or swore on that server as I recall.

Glad to see we cleared this up.

Happy Racing once again

Quote from Quint999 :

Actually you was asked politely, to which you took great offence.

I'll back down here and suggest this .. go try out your constant commenting skills unannouced and uninvited on various servers during the race and see what response you get. If its favourable , then fair enough, i apologise.

I'll admit its a bit unexpected, I was trying to liven up the events. Darkone did it on the Redline server unexpectingly and it was a huge sucess. Thought I'd give it a try myself, and you were the only that complained. I didn't see anyone else. Especially for those that spectated.

Anyway, I'll "STFU" (which I admit, chatting too much is a flaw for myself) and race, and compliment, until asked which brings into a conversaion.

Happy racing.

Quote from zeugnimod :

I dont know, what you call "spamming", but for me it is, when somebody sends the same line over and over again or if he just writes nonsense. Thats of course not acceptable.

A normal conversation or somebody commentating on a good pass or sth is hardly spamming IMO.

I'm with you there. If someone asked me politely to stop commentating, then I would have done that. But if someone literally said it differently, in a harsh or rude manner, then clearly things are going to get worse before they get better.

Quote from Burnzoire :

check it out!

Saved that to my favourites. Very well done

Quote from Quint999 :

even worse than constant chatting

someone constantly commentating on the race ( very badly i might add) whilst your trying to get on with it

There is a "-" that blocks messages.

Small preview of the sound effects in the BF1.

I understand that LFS members want to race and dominate, and improve their skills of driving. But on other cases for drivers not racing, its an opportunity to make friends and conversations until they are ready for the next race. And these conversations can last an age.

How do you guys feel about it? Think we should quack our traps off? Or zip them up and discuss them on forums/pm/msn/e-mail etc.

EDIT:I'm not referring to the arguing of drivers having incidents, more on the friendly general banter. I'm not bothered about the chatting at all, just a bit curious.

Congrats Faster111. Hopefully now that you are in a team, you can improve on your times.

Quote from Leprekaun :

Hi! I wanted to ask, when do the devs plan to return to working on LFS? I know they've released test patches U21 and U22 but I want something serious, like what happened with the U patch. Any chance of getting S2 (FINAL) anytime soon devs?

I'll tell you.

When they feel like working on it again! .

I'm happy with the way it is, the devs can take a break, and take their time. I'm fully satisfied with this at this present moment.

Quote from faster111 :

Am in a team called ptohead now cause they want fun i think they fast not sure but i spoke to the team leader and they been running for 3 years oh boy am in a team.

Who's Pothead?

Quote from Becky Rose :

It's the most realistic part of LFS to blame someone else

Had Lotesdelere blaming me for holding him up on the pitlane exit of FZR/XRR/FXR - Aston National. He claimed I was deliberatly holding him up *was driving FXR, he was FZR, and was right behind me* considering he had the faster car with more straight line speed than me, he could have easily overtook me, but, not after he spun he had a right go at me.

Good example of members blaming others for their own mistakes .

Quote from Cropsy :

You're welcome. Cheeky bastard. Next time I see you in the track, i'll wreck you!

Lol.

Quote from Slartibartfast :

And the F08 is king of LFS.

.

It's a shame that it wasnt given the chance it deserved .

Quote from Storm_Cloud :

Getting into this far too much. Did two race simulation tests last night, noting lap times and tyre pressures every 5 laps.

Lol, least you are practicing for it .

Quote from jamesrowe :

What the :s i dont expect any of the ITEK guys to join MG and some would not be welcome now!

I was never kicking anyone when they was down, if you read before hand, i was trying to get them happier! but The End had to go and be one of those Twats as refered to earlier and start it all illepall

As I recall you posted this.

Quote :

Thank you, i dont think my girl friend would love it to know i make love with my CD Rom, actualy its a DVD-Rom!

Do you remember me thinking and applying for Itek? i said i would start on an ITEK website, well i did infact and got pretty far on it! Everybody forgot about that, and so i didnt want to mention it here as im trying to get some morale boost going on!

MG might have been abit slower then you, but we are still running and will be for along time yet.

Im withdrawing any posts i make on this thread from now on, you get alot of gratitude, thats for sure!

I hope you all find somewhere new to race and say how good you are!
Some of you are great guys in ITEK, like Keith and very much so Kasper. Also psymonhilly (these are only out the ones i have got to know somewhat)

But some of you really do think you were the best, but to be the best you need to keep going!... If its a sprint, you won, but an endurance...

Good luck to all of you!

And you took my cheek pretty well, now you have become upset, because folk are having a go at you and you haven't learned when to stop posting.

And because of the hole you have put yourself in, it may consider others not to apply for MG if that attitude literally evolves around the MG forum itself.

Quote from Der_Dude :

is there a reason, why my Teammate "Maishaupt" and me ("Der_Dude") are not listed as participants in the opening post of this thread? I just want to make sure we can race with you guys on sunday. CU

My apologies, you have now been put in .
