I was reading his last post on this page and I don't want to read between the lines or interpret anything, but could it be that our friend Franky is ill and unaware of what's going on? (I hope not!)

Anyway, it is probably time he ask for some help, at least to do his PR, nothing worse than waiting for something when you have no idea of what the problem is....

I am not trying to say that Andy was right in any way, I believe James when he said it was bad, and it was even worse since he is the leader and should have shown the example...

My point here was that since some of you have been guilty of the same thing before, why do you leave so fast? why don't you let Andy present his excuses to the racing organisation and the team? after all we are all human and we all can have very stupid reactions when we have a bad day....

A team is like a family, for better or for worst, deal with your problems maturely/internally and make sure the same mistakes are not repeated over and over... If being in a team is so important for you guys, stop leaving at the first problem... love your team and fight for it!

As I see it, MoS is being killed by its members!

Quote from xtraction :Yes, but point out how many of those where major teams, and i only just started major racing within the past year or so, so i think that was a little uncalled for. but as i think you should try and notice, im currently trying to gain a better reputation within the community, but with people like andy doing stuff like this, its not gonna help really is it.

I thought naming and shaming wasn't allowed on this forum? and you keep repeating it...

If I remember well I had to present the team's excuses to the VR/CL 24h-Event organisation in June for similar actions on your part, was that the reason you kicked your self out the Eteam?...if so, well what can I say, you're a man of principles!

We are testing some stuff on a new server called & Genuine GT Racing, in short it is set as a multiclass GT server based on safety rating only, but we are also testing Eq Worry's new Voting system for site and tracks, if you're interested feel free to drop by and test it for your self...

More details about what's going on with this server here: http://www.ready2rollteam.com/ ... wtopic.php?f=21&t=747

Hmm good point, didn't realize it was only demo at first, and this unlimited demo account story is an invitation to wrong doing. I think they should be limited in time (3 to 6 months should be enough to know if you like the game/sim) and probably linked to pay email addresses to prevent them from using multiple free email accounts...(and I know that some ppls don't have pay email account, but that's a small group today)

My 2 cents...

Before this new speed hack has been patched, would it be a good idea to maintain a list of those cheaters, like that we could all ban them on our servers and avoid having them jumping from server to server? (almost equal to getting s2 banned)
Maybe one single topic where replays can be posted and the list of confirmed cheaters on in first post?

(sorry if this has been asked before, I haven't read the all topic..)

Interesting read!

First I like to start with a question: Religion is the source of many of our problems, so why are we not teaching all religions in school?

Personal thoughts (engages only me):
When I was young(er) I have been interested in religions and I have been initiated in quite a few, my main problem with them is that they give you a reason to suffer quietly in this life because an hypothetical better one is around the corner, if we all stopped believing most would probably request to make ‘’heaven’’ on earth and that could be a problem for some. Also there seems to be a competition about god with market shares which makes it/him a product/commodity, no way a real god would accept this, it’s so strange.

For my part I always thought I was a believer, but I have been very ill in the 90’s and almost died a couples of times, the only thing that brought me back every time was a strong feeling that there was only this life and nothing behind it, so it became my reason to fight as hard as I could to make it as long as possible, it was not the easy way, so I realized that I had lost my faith because if I would have believed in heaven or in a continuation of some sort I would have signed for it immediately.

We use only a small portion of our brains, the biggest part of it is not fully under our control, so could it be that the god feeling is inside all of us, like in realistic dreams we could have the feeling of a superior presence around us, feels real but it isn’t…or maybe it is ….

God is a good way to explain what we don’t understand, that’s why science is the enemy because it reduces that considerably (3 main religions says that god created the world about 4000years ago and then we got prove that the dinosaurs walked the earth million years ago) , but still today many scientists find the hands of god behind things like the big bang and we are not close to explain the origin of this one ….

Food for the digital minded: maybe we are just a big program like the Sims and our pixels are the atoms or the subatomic particles, the programmer could be our god ( with all the problems on hearth now that would explain why angel Scawen had no time for our lfs update). (sorry for the joke, I couldn’t resist :shrug

I Also like the ancient cosmonauts theory which could explain many things, just us interpreting things we didn't understand with words we knew...

Anyway I think life is about choices and if you chose to believe or not and it works for you, we should all respect that!

Quote from Rudy van Buren :

Hope that a double team can slip into 1 car or something

Well, let's go then, I have have removed the xrt and will share the fxo with Matty (post 24)....let's race!

I hope there will be more tbo if you split on two servers, or we will feel like shooting targets for the gt2's...

Don't know if this has been posted here, but last night I was checking AIWR and when I used !bl fe3 fx2 or !bl FE3 FX2 I would get two different drivers with the same lap time....

Quote from kiste :sure but if they all leave and search a new team the team can´t be that inactive.

That's precisely my point!


Well a couples of weeks ago we’ve started a cooperation with eteam, 3 weeks ago we’ve done our first race (24h) and 15 drivers were present (we had 2 cars on the podium), momo and others were surprised how the eteam was waking up. We’ve made many plans for the future together and everyone was motivated (ex Carpio who can’t make up his mind atm), I’ve rented many servers to cover every aspect for everyone, now I’ve been on holidays for 3 weeks and I have to read this topic to get the news that the eteam doesn’t exist anymore…. Not even a PM or an email to inform me, I don’t know how to call that comportment, but that’s not the right way to do things in my book!
WTH happened during those 3 weeks?

Sorry for being of topic, but since the news was only here to be found, thought I should answer here too!

@ex Eteam guys: something I don't get here, you all left because of inactivity, and now you're all searching for new teams, does that mean you are going to be more active in an other team?

BTW thx for telling me!!

@EQ Worry: if you're looking to give your wife a reason to divorce you, keep working on your laptop when she's enjoying the Italian sun...waiting for you to snap out of your Airio addiction lol

Next year, she should not let you take the laptop on holidays...that's what mine does!

Quote from franky500 :Control panel issue: the TCAdmin control panel we use seems to be having issues connecting to the tcadmin license server. This is causing an error on the CP.

a ticket has been logged with TCAdmin and hopefully this will have a resolution soon.

I feel for you mate, you've been living hell the last couples of weeks, sometimes even doing your best isn't enough ....

Damn computers, how funny is that love and hate relationship we have with them.

Keep us posted!

I am French, but after their poor performances I'll be happy to support Holland (or wife will kill me lol)...even if I think Spain is the stronger team!

I don’t know about weather forecast, but I know that science is a slow process where previous and actual believes are always put in question, so they are only the best of what we can do at a moment in time.

I think the best heritage for our children’s is clean water, clean air and clean food. Today none of those 3 are clean, we’ve even manage to infect all the fishes in the sea, antibiotics and contraception medications are in all our water supplies (and I don’t talk about all the other rejections due to intensive agriculture and industries) and I don’t think we can discuss that the quality of the air has not improved in the last 100 years. The hole in the ozone is real and it is also true that since we’ve stopped to use the gazes (CFC) which we thought were damaging it, the hole has been stable and was even recently reported to have been reducing. And I could go on for hours about facts we can see with our eyes, so if the question is ‘’do we have an impact in damaging the planet and contributing to global warming’’, I guess the answer is yes (by how much is not really important I think)…sadly we live in a world where the technique is to contradict everything enough to make ppls doubt and when they do, most of them don’t make a choice or go against.

Also I believe that ecology is unavoidable and is very expensive for the governments who have to start it and if they look for new revenues, in short term they will never be sufficient if oil has to disappear… that’s why they try to make us believe that wind, sun and biomass are they ways we should adopt, but I believe that they are all possible transitions from oil revenues to a ‘’greener’’ forms of revenues…sadly we almost never talk about things like geothermal energy, 5% is exploitable now and without much technologic improvement it has 5000 years of energy to offer to the all planet (oil company can drill holes 11kms deep now, say that we improve this to 30kms to get under hearth’s crust and we could use geothermal energy everywhere in the world at very low cost and with no negative rejections), but it would be very hard to justify the high energy bills we have to pay (no big dams, no expensive research, no expensive oil rigs and refineries…..). I believe that ppls in our governments are chosen to keep things as they are and avoid changes at all cost, today they can’t deny ecology to ppls because too many evidences are showing we need to change, but they still can keep oil a little cheaper than advertised renewable energies (wind, sun and biomass) which needs gigantic investments to become a viable solution in our economic system, so taxes on fuel will happen, but they will be moderated and will have very little impact on speeding up ecology since at least a doubling of the price would start to have a real impact….

One of you said that human nature was greedy and selfish, that’s true, but I don’t believe human nature is a definitive thing, human nature evolutes and changes function of its environment and education. We are formed to be competitive, greedy and selfish from day one because a minority is owning the world and that’s the best way for them to avoid solidarity in the majority…

So now if the so said scientific community aggravate the facts to fight those big machines (corporate and government) and make us realize that we can’t go on living like this…so be it!

I agree that the science is more than doubtable, it could be wrong both ways too, so I chose to be a believer because in doubt I think it is better to go for a cleaner way of living… it is less risky than denying it…
