I'll point the guy who does it in this direction because that lot means nothing to me.

I was just answering a the original request in the best way that I could. at the time, sorry if that upset you.

Or maybe he's referring to the over 360 markup errors, quite pathetic with the already loose transitional standard

Scawen Roberts probably does. And please use spell checker if you can.

Spell checker wouldn't have picked any of that up anyway except maybe vw and scirocco.

Quote from dekojester :

I mean no ill will, and I never seem to get anything too terribly positive when I tried to make videos before because of my piss-poor graphics...it's why I don't make anything anymore because I always seem to get a "nice but...." with EVERYTHING I do media wise.

I was merely jesting. But I guess I can't.

Then surely you know how it feels to be laughed at when you have put in a lot of effort.

There is a time and a place for jesting and when you are known to be heavily involved in some of the best broadcasting on lfs, any of this type of jesting just comes across as big headed bullying.

You'll also see that I am not the only one with this opinion.

I'd be just as dissapointed at someone slagging one of your broadcasts off. The fact that you have helped others does not give you the right to act like a 10 year old child. If you think it does then you have a lot of growing up to do.

You guys should be ashamed of yourselves.

These people are having a go. They may not be as good as NDR at doing this stuff but at least they are having a go.

Deko, you dissapoint me, I thought you were a nice guy. You and Chris should be encouraging these guys not publicly laughing at them.

I'd just like to add to this.

At the moment you don't have to be racing on our servers to use our Vent server. It spends a lot of time nearly empty at the moment which is a waste of money. So if you want to chat with your mates while on your own server just find an empty room, there are plenty, and chat away.

This may change in the future if it gets busy but for now, fill ya boots.

NotAnIllusion, unfortunately you are one of the ones that have been unfairly hurt by us upping the SR required to drive the XRG. I've raced with you many times before (well been passed by you anyway) and I know that you can handle the XRG.

Please understand the reason we have done this though. As you are aware there are many peole that cannot drive the XRG well but think they can. We found that these types were causing many accidents, either directly or indirectly by holding up lots of cars by having the ass end hanging out on every corner, so in order to stop this we upped the SR required to 80%. 80% is not that high but it does mean that a new starter (to IHR) does have to get from 50 to 80 before they can drive it.

We have found that it has made a big difference to the quality of driving in the STD class as it keeps the real beginners out of the XRG. Real beginners will struggle to get to 80% and when they do they don't want to spoil it straight away by jumping into an XRG that they can't drive.

While reading this I just checked your stats on IHR and I can see that you have passed that now anyway It's nice to see good driving talent racing with us.

Quote from Mango Juice :

Ironhorse is going downhill anyway, so no need to worry about Safety Ratings, the server will be dead soon enough.

How would you know how IHR servers are going? You were permabanned about 20 days ago. Typical banned user post. You did something stupid enough to get permabanned so now you want to spoil the fun for everybody else. Grow up!

I'm sure I've seen a video of scawen driving a real fbm. Wouldn't he want to make it as real as possible?

Quote from bds :

There are specific admins who are complete idiots and don't know their ass from their elbow

Considering it's an S2 server and you are posting from a demo account I can only assume that this is a second account you have registered to keep your real identity hidden. I believe second accounts are forbidden here?

Edit: So Mr. Bluenavy, maybe you didn't try to hide as your demo account is the same name as your racer name. Just letting you know your ban was about to run out but I've now made it permanent.

You guys need to learn the difference between dead not as busy as it used to be. The difference is huge. We get new users every day in ihr servers.

Lfs is far from dead.

Quote from cardriverx :

If I was you I would wait for S3. I mean it will be out any time now, no reason wasting money on S2.

do you not realise how the s1,s2 etc system works? Or are you just trolling?

If he purchased s2 now there would be no money wasted if he later went to s3 as he would only have to pay the difference between s2 and s3.

Quote from Duhec :

If you are already a good admin ... tell me why I was banned. Each would upset if he were unnecessarily banned. We apologize for earlier post ... but I was angry.

There was no reason given on the ban list so I was unable to tell you why. Yes I did look at the time of replying to you. It was only for 3 days so it wouldn't have been that serious though none of the admins will ban for no reason at all. Had you saved your replay and posted in the relevent place on our forum we would have looked at it and considered removing your ban. However, the result of your dummy throwing in here means you are no longer welcome on our servers. Case closed.

Quote from Duhec :

Sry but this server is sux. Rammers, lag, ban for nothing. CITRA miss

server sux? Don't come back then.
Rammers? Report them with replay in the correct place and they will be dealt with.
Lag? It's on 500 servers, so you are having a go at them not us.
ban for nothing? I seriously doubt it. Got a replay to prove this?

JPeace,

I tried to discuss your opinions of us in PM but you refused to speak to me after telling me what you believe we did wrong. I don't think anybody banned people "because of fun". I really don't.

I cannot hope to look into problems and concerns if I am not given hard facts to work with though and when I say hard facts, I don't neccessarily mean replays, just a bit more than "I don't like how you attacked my friends".

If we cannot look into them we cannot even begin to think about apologising and trying make right what was done wrong. So I ask you please to stop flaming us and instead open a dialogue so that we can try to clear this bad air that has happened.



To all,

We had some problems at the start, we admit, but we worked on it and did our best to turn things around.

Do you know about our VIP program? Respected users of our server are given limited admin access. We ask nothing of them but purely give the access so that real idiots (you all know they exist) can be removed when there is not an admin around. Some use it rarely, some help to admin. It's up to them.
There are now nearly as many VIP admins as there are IHR members. It is our goal to give out this access to as many people as possible. Imagine how clean a server can be if half the grid are admins and the other half know this?

We ask you all to bring individual concerns to us either privately or on our forum so that we can have the chance to address them. Flaming us on here does nothing to satisfy your concerns and can only make things more sour. Give us a chance as we have given many chances to others.

Quote from SAxor :

S1 is a waste, and so is S2 imo unless you go the organized, league/race route.

I've have had S2 for about 18 months now and I have only entered one race in one league (scheduled time is my problem). I still consider this to be the best "game" I have ever purchased, certainly not "a waste". There are some great pickup servers out there. You just have to accept that you will not finish every race you start.

I don't see you on the ban list so I don't know why you can't get in. I have tried the lfs unban command too just in case. Let me know if you still can't get in.

it's the swear filter.

just watch

We are building in the exceptions as we find them.

Also a kick is only that. you can rejoin straight away.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I would have thought that someone who has been around since 2004 would know that you don't lose the replay when you get banned. You rename the temp.mpr BEFORE you try to rejoin. You can also press H to bring up the chat history so you can see the last few lines. I have little to no sympathy for someone who should know better.

You say the only thing you remember doing is saying "crasher". In my experience it is more often the one who shouts "crasher" is the one who caused the accident, only their ego's won't let them see that.

Protest in the correct way and your ban will be looked at. As I have said before mistakes are made and they are apologised for. We will not deal with cases here for some very obvious reasons. If you don't feel like registering on our server and we don't feel like dealing with it here then you are the one with two options as has already been explained.

Quote from FlyingSam :

I don't know why you are so incredulous, like if you knew me or something... I can affirm that it was a bad administration, some minutes after I writted that message, they unbanned me.

I writted it here, because they started a post here and because I wanted to do it, it's not bad if I comment it here, as you can comment something against me and nobody attacks you .

I think it's solved, but I think that they would be a bit more careful when banning. Anyway, when crashers brake in curves, it's funny race on that server.

A misunderstanding, simply.

Greetings.

I'm confused, I look at the ban list and you appear to still be banned. It is a 3 day ban that was set 4 minutes before your first message, so it hasn't been lifted and then put back.

As far as not complaining here is concerned. We make it quite clear that protests belong on our forum and not on this forum. This is not a unique rule either, most servers do this. Be honest. The reason you posted here is because you feel your whining will reach a bigger audience and you might just get some more sympathy. If you can post about your ban in the correct place, preferably with a replay, it can be looked into. Bitching on here about bad administration is not going to help your case.

Yes mistakes are made, we are human afterall, and if you take a look at our protests page you will see that we have accepted and apologised for mistakes. Most of us are also new to administrating and we are learning the whole time. Take your time to read some of the report threads. You will see a lot of discussion regarding bans and penalties.

Finally posting a whining thread right after Ori has warned that if you do you will get permanently banned is a bit daft. Just hope that Ori is in a good mood when he reads it.
