He is since the first day I saw him on track several months ago. He's just leaving very slowly.

Yes. When you live a thousand lightyears away from someone it takes awhile for the posts to matter.

That..and puberty sucks.

Heres my answer to global warming.

Only if you put it in orbit, if you just keep pushing it out past Earths gravitational field it would eventualy just fly away

Well..When they launch another little probe to Mars just put some nucelar waste on it lol...Im sure nothing bad would happen.

Sure. We all need radioactive Kooala bears and Kangaroos.

..

Why don't they just put the waste on an MTV satelite and send that into deep space? Theres enough room in the galaxy for some waste in space right? lol..

"Dude, wheres my racecar?"
lol.

If you want to try something in movie maker use the smudge stick effect on videos or something with low quallity and high FPS. That worked for me and no one else could tell the diffrence

Get. A. Better. Computer. If it freezes that badly then I wouldn't even bother with it.

Quote from DeKo :

I may have been imagining things, but on that server im sure i saw cones being blown away, and somebody else did aswell. am i going mad?

LOL at turn one right? I was right behind you when they attacked me LOL!!!

But yeah I really wanna do Fern Bay again with those high winds lmao. And the turn 1 straw patch has GOT to go. Too many turn 1 accidents from everyone squeezing in.

"I told you guys we shouldn't have integrated the Ford Pinto's back bumper and fuel system into our car!"

For those who didn't know the bumper was right next to the gastank and was basicly a match box with fuel. It caused many deaths before the recalls came out.

Quote from ChiliFan :

The second installment. Every driver goes off at that fast right hander at FE Green, due to high winds. I think GruntOfAction will be posting up his video soon too.

Lost power in the middle of saving the replay. And the replay went poof. Owell atleast you saved it lmao.

Quote from Gunn :

You're going to be a real pain in the arse once you reach puberty.

LOL I don't think he will dude. If he drives the way he talks he'll be self nudered in a car accident.

Ehh..it was okay.

What the f**K?!?!?! It came out june 22nd????!?!? Its not even in stores in america yet! This is bullsh*t dude.

EDIT: Nevermind. Its just Flatout 2 on the 360 with a name change.

And just like Flatout 2 it will probably suck.

Quote from dungbeetle :

It's OK, we've all had some of that GOA and can understand your frustration.

Don't forget though, that Sam and Becky have effectivley built in 24/7 admin cover into all of the CTRA servers by creating the new $report system. If you're not familiar with it or how it works, check out the CTRA website (here: http://www.raceauthority.com/help.asp) or maybe start a new $report thread where we can all discuss how it works.

Really, the best thing to do, if this kind of thing happens again, is to use the reporting system. If we all do this, the wreckers and swearers will very quickly disappear from the servers. We no longer have to rely on an admin being present on the server to sort this kind of stuff out.

Having said that, I read recently somewhere else (can't remember where though - sorry ) that they still have to load the database with swear words in other languages and that the reporting system itself is still not quite fully functional. However I don't think it will be too long before you can effectively report someone in-game with just a few mouse clicks.

Taking advantage of this new system is probably the quickest way to clean up the CTRA servers.

EDIT: sorry, I was typing at the same as Becky ^^^

Ehh nevermind. I was quiting LFS soon anyway.

Quote from Jakg :

So it seems to so far that the only negative thing about the servers are the ordinary LFS'ing public? Seems like your looking the wrong thread to blame in :/

Well im sorry for a complaint then. I guess I should pretend that every LFS driver is not going to run me off the road or cuss and swear at me in german or something and start attacking me ingame?


Sorry for being a f**king american. I didn't choose my county.

Well now I'll have more servers to avoid...

No offense but the people in the XFG/XRG servers drive like a bunch of mentally challenged people. Not only do they ram just to get a position but they won't even check to see if your behind them, they will just move over, smash into you, take themselves and you out, and keep driving off like nothing happened. And to make it worse the $rep thing doesn't even work for reporting. I have an Email address set up already and I can't even send a report because APPARENTLY my email doesn't have CO.UK at the end of it. So the server is biased towards americans...

Thank you lol

Quote from The Very End :

Well ok, to say it was caused by lag was wrong
What I meant was that it was much lag when the crash had happend / happened. Just see how the cars fly everywhere, and suddently they are not where they was suposed to be, and they poped everywhere
Damn, I wish I had the propper english skill to discripe what I really meant

Please allow me to translate.

Ahem..

It was very laggy when the crash occured and thus made it seem like the vehicles were popping out of the map but a few seconds later they were scattered about the road like trash on Interstate I-95.

We shall hereby rename Summer to Flooder. Enjoy your nice wet Flooder .

Even Texas is being flooded by rain and such.

Quote from XCNuse :

Since this is on the topic of autocross objects, I need to point out one thing that has been bothering me for a long time.

The red and white barriers.
Now, before you go read something else because you think I'm going to tell about how they make you go flying, you're wrong.

The barrier's real life counterpart are plastic, and when they get bumped... they get bumped and pushed out of the way, I'm not 100% sure, but I think they are either filled partly with water, or have sandbags in them, I can't recall. That is just one thing that has been bothering me, that objects that should move, sit as solid as a boulder on the ground.

Yeah and I'd rather hit one, knock it over, and drive off rather than hit one,glitch up, and fly into the air and then fall on someone below me and knock them into it creating a juggling act.

Quote from creativesurgeon :

Worst thing I did was manage to have an accident on my push bike thanks to a plastic bag.

Bag came across the road, slammed into the rear gearing, gears seized so tightly that they were completely shorn from the frame, pitched over the handlebars.

Nothing I can do in LFS is worse than that.

Thankfully in LFS the physics arn't that good so if a bag is coming towards you it would probably hit a wall and fly up into the air...never to be seen again.

Quote from mrodgers :

Every time I start out with, "Watch this....", I do something embarrassing.

"Hey, watch this!" is usally the line that is said before there are funeral arangements made..or hospital trips...one or the other..lol.
