Is there an option where you can set the displays to both display the same thing rather than the tv being an extension of your desktop?

Quote from Masterboy19660815 :Gosh, I never played on Demo servers ( mostly online on CG S2 or Fox Junkies )

And, I just wanted to say that here, but your small brain isn't able to use this information clever

So someone got you banned from servers that you never use? How did you find out? Why do you care then? I'm confused!

Quote from ToxicKlay :I never said anything about this. I'm well aware that there has been no new content, so why are we trying to push pirates as far away as possible when they could be potentially spending money on LFS? Very seldom do I see someone post a link to the shop page, and when it does happen, it's in the form of a ridiculously snarky response. I can't speak on behalf of most people, but if I were brand new in a community and someone was replying to my posts like that, I'd want to pirate even MORE just to spite the community.

If people based their purchase of a game on whether someone was a twat on the game's forum then nobody would any buy game ever.

I must be so incredibly unlucky because the best I can do is drive slowly in a virtual racing game.

Quote from samjh :In most common law countries (eg. US, UK, Canada, Australia, etc), crime involves physical and mental elements: guilty conduct and guilty mind. Both have to be proven in a court of law. There are some crimes where only the physical element is required to be proven, but those are limited cases.

This is why accidental killings are treated differently to intentional killings, and also why those who are mentally deranged are sent to institutions for psychiatric treatment rather than punishment.



If I recall correctly, the stewards' decision to ban Grosjean was due to:
* History of crashes
* The crash involved leading world championship contenders

Pretty unfair, IMHO, but it is what it is.

Alonso doesn't deserve a ban. He was being a hypocrite though (at Monza: "always you have to leave the space!!!").

Guilt and punishment are two different things. The former is not really relevant as crashes are pretty much exclusively accidents so you don't need to factor intent or any of those things you mentioned. All the stewards need to factor is who was at fault and was it avoidable/the result of ****wittery, that gets a penalty or not. The penalty is then decided by the amount it affected someone else's race. If you take out a load of cars, almost chopping someone's head off, you're going to get a harsher deal than if you just spin round and only **** your own race up. I don't see what people see as unfair with that?

Quote from tristancliffe :So Grosjean was punished not for what he did, but the end result? Is that fair?

That's how all punishment works. If I aim a gun at your head and shoot then the criminal punishment is based on how good a shot I am, not my intent to kill you.

Their server has been down and he is pleased to see drivers that would have otherwise been on their server. This has given them the chance to peruse other servers and take stock of the situation. They note that the amount of cars in the demo is limited and the FBM is often driven erratically and foolishly. Therefore, they'd like another safer car to drive included in the demo (presumably they haven't spotted the XFG).

They also note that avoiding an accident takes great skill and often this results on the driver going onto the grass. However, this causes the driver's safety rating to go down and they find this unjust. They fell this injustice puts off people in some way.

If we're going to quote rules

Quote :20.2 Drivers must use the track at all times. For the avoidance of doubt the white lines defining the track edges are considered to be part of the track but the kerbs are not.
A driver will be judged to have left the track if no part of the car remains in contact with the track.
Should a car leave the track the driver may rejoin, however, this may only be done when it is safe to do so and without gaining any advantage.
A driver may not deliberately leave the track without justifiable reason.

Quote from CSF :But 4th place gets you more points than 19th. He wasn't going to finish 3rd.

Also please give an example of flags and back of the grid penalties.

Post edited. So many Hamilton penalties, it gets confusing.

Quote from Intrepid :Lewis took a high risk strategy. Modern tracks mean that when you run a driver wide, which Lewis was perfectly within his rights to do, and then that's followed by a corner in the opposite direction of the first then you have to take into account that. Lewis didn't. There's a time and a place to defend your position, this wasn't it.

He should take account of something which multiple different drivers including Maldonado himself didn't take account of in the same afternoon?

Quote from Intrepid :That's DRS & Pirelli for ya.

No, it's a rule system that gives you a drive through if you crash into someone and demotes you from pole to the back of the grid if you make a fuelling error.

Quote from Storm_Cloud :The sport is about obtaining more points than anyone else, not about being macho. If you think scoring points is bullshit for sport then I really don't know where you're coming from.

There are times when you must stand your ground and times when you have to accept that a situation only has downsides for you. It's not about letting the bullies win, but Pastor had a podium on his mind and does not care about the championship. He therefore had less to lose than Hamilton, so although he was not at fault that's no good when you're stuck in the tyre wall.

It's a bit being stood at a zebra crossing with a car speeding towards it. You could step out, get run over and then complain from the hospital that it was your right of way, or you engage your brain and get across the road eventually.

3rd place gets you more points that 4th place, so you should be able to battle for a place without fear of getting punted into the barrier by a sulky pay driver. Regardless of how ****ed your tyres are.

By your logic, nobody would tackle notorious football players in case they get injured and it jeopardises a future match.

Quote from Storm_Cloud :I didn't say "jump out of the way" so, no.

But what you are saying is that drivers that are known to be arseholes be let through or at best not as well fought as those that drive cleanly. Which may be in some way be pragmatic for the drivers in a situation but it's bullshit for the sport.

To me, it looked like he might have done it going too far over on the red and white curb but it wasn't a clear shot.
