That's pretty rich, write vague rules an implement rules which arn't even in the full rule book and when people don't see it and make a mistake you turn around and say its not your job to hold our hand? Wow.
Okay Chris if you wish to go down that road please heck the last time Ben was active on these forums. I don't wish you be sarcastic and pedantic but if I'm going to have to trawl forums to find we rules then where is my £25,000 a year so I can leave education and persue this as a full time job?
We've fallen foul of the rules again and I accept that - I'm more upset for TRR and Tommy than I am for my own teams car. Im not the only one complaining, don't you think by the sheer amount of people doing the wrong way that there is an issue with communication between admins and drivers? How hard would it have been to add the rule into a welcome message? I agree that after that of the rule is still broken then the punishment should still stand.
I'll leave that there for now, I'm not looking for an argument I'm looking for an amendment to the rules.
Fram we both share the same opinion about these forums. Its not mandatory to check the Pre-qual briefing only the race briefing, my drivers rarely check the forums as its full of flame wars and trolls, I'm at school most of the day and can't pass the message onto my driver when he Pre-quals. If he doesn't check the forums how is he supposed to know about this rule?
It may be common sense but when you join a sever and see other people doing it and are unaware of the rule how can you expect any different? A message attatched to the welcome message warning about the rule would have sufficed but there was none.
And no I'm not protesting. Deko said he needs help and self governing well here it is, I'm pointing out the issues with the rule book so this doesn't happen next time. My suggestion is a welcome message stating the rule, but ofc we all know these forums and I'm bound to be flamed and trolled for whatever I say.
I fully accept the penalty given to my team for the first time this season, however im pointing out if it isn't mandatory to read the Pre-qual briefing how are people to know?
Was it in the rules you must come to the Pre-qual thread and read it through to the full extent? To be honest I thought the only reason this thread was created was the indicate when Pre-qual had started, finished and the results.
Yeah rules are rules and I respect that, I'm more concerned that people so far off the pace now get a chance to race.
Agreeing with Jack about the loss of laps until a proper one is finished, but I guess as the teams are all DSQ then the empty spaces on the grid will remain empty.
As a result of the DSQ's there are now cars starting the race who are up to 4 seconds off the pace in qualifying alone. On a fas narrow track this should be real fun! Especially as those in question have already been crashing into / causing considerable inconvenience to those practising on the server. I know rules are rules but prehaps a loss of fastest lap, or even a grid penalty would be more appropriate to those who broke the rules rather than a mass DSQ? My two cents.
Please password the league server either the preQ password or the same as previous round. With 500servers down I don't have a private server to practise on, so I go to the league server to do a stint and end up getting wrecked by drifters, learners and people driving the wrong way - its deeply frustrating.
If you were to do anything, bring back sprint GTR racing. R2s only and alternate combos between the XRR/ FZR/ FXR, would be pretty cool and would fill the void left by GT Series and iTCC disappearing.
To be honest the only manager that could ever control him would be Mancini, can't think he would even be wanted anywhere for the inevitably high price for him anyways.
Jokes aside, it's all very true especially the last paragraph.
And I think it's time to also acknowledge that without Deko and NDR and the Comms team, league racing would not be anywhere near as good as it is right now, despite stagnated LFS development. So thank you to all NDR team and I at least heed your words about driving standards etc
Shows how delirious you are he frequently gets beaten. He wasn't banned for being fast (lol) he was banned for general abuse to other players when he lost, and as said it was scawen that banned him for foul language directed at another driver.
As for yourself you're kindly showing the whole community exactly why you were banned.
