All what? What does that mean to a new person contemplating buying LFS?
I would bet that many people don't know there's even a link to LFS World on the main site. Its such a good sim it seems such a shame not to breath some life into the place where the majority of people have there first contact with LFS.
Forget about updates via the forum, just update the web page from time to time even if its only meaningless stuff. Let people that don't frequent this forum know there's actually something going on.
If i were new to LFS or looking at buying it you would have to think whether or not you were buying something dead in the water when the information on the official website is dated Mon, Dec 15th, 2008 17:30.
Or if you do make your way to the forum there's 15000 posts all on the same subject asking the exact same questions .
Surely three or four lines of non specific information every month isn't a lot to ask,even if its done purely for showing that LFS is still well and truly active.
We all know what racism is and what it isn't, that idiot with the steering wheel was putting shit on one person that drives a silver formula one car that has Vodaphone plastered all over it , not an entire race of people he was making fun of one individual .
I sell software for a living and i totally agree with you that you should be able to sell it , that's not how reality works unfortunately and as Bob said your license was for you and you alone.
Still LFS isnt as bad as say Microsoft , if we build a person a new PC we are by law not allowed to transfer that license to the customers new PC even though they have a retail copy of Windows and the old pc is decomissioned by us. Thats not do say it doesnt happen..
How pissed would you be if be if LFS took that approach?
Back to the gimp with the black face and steering wheel, how do you lampoon Mark Webber or Jenson Button? You would use there most recognizable feature so everybody knows exactly who your putting shit on.
Is walking around with a big red hat holding an ice cream and a coke racist or offensive to Kimi?
First thing i,m 46 years old secondly what i have said you is something your parents would say (ok maybe different wording) but its about having some dignity , you may be an guy posting on the internet that i ill never meet and maybe i went off too strongly but i see red when i see young people just blatantly asking for a hand out.
Your dignity and self worth have to be worth more than $50.00US it just has to be.
Who cares how early the threads are started its just another excuse to talk F1 and that can be nothing but good.
As always hope springs eternal and i will be sending good vibes to my man Webber to bag his first win, lets just hope he isn't leading by a margin and gets sent to another universe when he laps Alonso's antimatter powered Renault.
Its all a farce , thank god the racing has been entertaining at least.
But while the head honcho of the sport is deemed ok to wear a Nazi outfit while a prostitute balances on his knob , lying about who overtook who doesn't really matter all that much..
Whats mad it worse in my book is he came out with what seemed a heart felt apology with out really telling the truth or showing remorse what whats been done.
**** blaming the team , he was asked those questions one on one with Charlie Whiting and lied to his face.
My 6 and 9 year old kids behave like this all the time, i admire LH deeply as a driver but he isn't much of a man imho.
Every person at some stage of there life will come to some point where they can either stand up and take the penalty or cower and try and sleaze out of it.
Lewis is his own man and the way he lied about the incident more than once shows his quality.
I don't buy this team made me do it shit, the radio chatter implicates him and yet he goes on lying about it.
I still regard LH as a great driver but a lousy person , he could have stopped all of this rubbish by growing a backbone by telling Charlie Whiting/ stewards exactly what happened.
The man and team are more than capable of winning and scoring points with out resorting to this level.
The feel,nothing comes close imho.
The cars, most are great to drive are not same chassis/feel with different bodies.
The ease of finding a pick up race, best sim on the planet for this type of fun.
I dislike:
Fanboys , the zealots that cannot see LFS's faults and it has them. We all know of your devotion to the Dev team and that your love will never die but for the love of God open you minds every now and then.
Slow speed tyre grip/slip
Barrier bug, cmon its been some years now and even the biggest fanboy has whinged about this one from time to time.
