Quote from March Hare :So is this whole thread. Started just after someone else has gotten two perfectly helpful and friendly replies to a question about drifting. There never was any hate in that thread. The only real hate is in the mind of the OP. That's all.

If I get a reputation for speaking the truth even if it's painful, so be it.

Besides if you would use the forum search you would find countless similar threads where a sole drifter comes crying about how everybody hates him. All those threads have a few things in common. One person whines. Several other people tell him he is wrong. OP still whines. Some other dim drifters come and join the whining. Several racers and drifters, who have been around a little longer, tell the OP to get on with drifting if he likes and not care what other people think. Still whining from the new drifters. Persons who have been around for longer get fed up. Insults fly. Thread gets closed.

Yes, you are talking some sense. Seriously though, near enough every time you have made a post, it is consistently insulting the guy, cant you just at least make one insult and not carry on?

You've made a valid point. I cant find one thing that i would disagree with at all.

Quote from krkriv :Lol, I just saw this topic. And be sure this is not brain wash for gt1ws race or something. What I mean, we talked earlier in our ts about that ego driving etc. Will watch this video l8. I don't know for you Sean, but I completely lost into ur post.

Well to sum up my post, what it means is, dark empty place, nothing there, but you think there is, so you become afraid or something, your mind telling you this but its not true.

Quote from Bmxtwins :Huge shame if it can't be done as this is a premier league in my opinion. I hope you find someone deko, as long as the commentators are good we don't really need all the fancy overlayers.

You dont exactly need quality commentators, i would be happy with the LFS sound and TV coverage of the race, now and again running through positions and pointing out an incident or two.

I might be taking s**t but this wouldnt be only coverage of the league, but LFS as a whole. I dont know about other teams but we post the links on our Facebook, website and Twitter. Hoping that more people get an insight in to how good LFS still is.

From what ive read, some peoples opinions and facts are total rubbish.

At the top of the thread i read something about cruise server being more popular than race servers, if this is so, then take a look again, and you will see Cargame.nl S2 racing server. It is always full and produces some of the best public racing around, apart from that, a lot of racers are hidden on private servers or practicing on single player, because they are preparing for an event or league race.

As for this being a racing simulator, it is purely designed for racing only. People using their initiative and the right tools to create a cruise insim was purely player based, not anything from the Developers. An open world map would possibly be a good idea, but it has its pro's and conns. Ill list some that i can quickly think of;

Pro's


#1 - It would bring some more freedom to cruisers, in a more realistic world / track.

#2 - For racers, this could provide some great racing, and possibly if done correct, racing in an open world map could produce some racing similar to the Monaco Grand Prix, street racing (not talking NFS here guys).

Conns

#1 - Many LFS users dont have a great computer, and therefore would lack the optimal amount of FPS and cause driving & racing to be a nightmare.

#2 - It would take a lot of time, and effort, possibly a fair amount of money for it to be done correctly, and this would draw focus away from other developments such as S3 and the content we are waiting for.

#3 - With such a huge map, There would have to be more slots on the track in which players can join (max 32 atm), and this would mean that not only the developers would have to release an update allowing more cars on the track, but also server hosting companies, such as 500servers, would possibly have to boost their dedi performance. Causing crashes, errors and more problems with the host, and the server its self.

I could be wrong, but this is just my opinion.

Well Fram, if your idea was to play mind games with some of us before the GT1ws, im not sure if thats quite whats happening, but as confusing as that video was, it made 100% sense.

For instance, if im on the right tracks say, Your walking down the street in the pitch black, and nothing is there. You walk past a long driveway or an alleyway, and you think you see something, so you stop and listen. You imagine something is there so you either go and search for it, or you become afraid and you start to walk faster and faster. In reality there is nothing there at all, its just an empty Alleyway, you want to beleive that but you cant. There is a voice in your head telling you that your being followed or watched, and you cant help that.

Is that right Fram, or am i lost?

Racing line is different for all cars in some way or another PVL. Braking points change, Entry lines change, its just used as a guidance line for beginners to get a feel for their car and the track.

Quote from March Hare :No. Drifting isn't a sensitive topic. It is emotionally challenged drifters who are sensitive. Just like you. Just because you occasionally throw your arse around and somebody didn't like it you come here crying how everyone hates you.

Dude, all of your posts have been pointless insults hoping to get a reaction from the guy, just leave the topic because your really making a bad reputation for yourself.

Quote from NotAnIllusion :So you make a thread in a discussion forum, inviting discussion and then dismiss other people's opinions as unvalued. Why make a thread at all if you aren't willing to have rational discussion

Fair point.

I just think all this internet trolling, hatred for other people and just saying random stuff that may be insults to someone, to make other people laugh, is just getting out of hand now. Looking back just under 5 years, when i first started playing LFS, it was a great community, everyone willing to help, and only the "odd fool" that people would ignore. Now if you take a step back and look from the outside, its all pathetic.

It would be so much easier to just get along with everyone, no matter if your a racer, cruiser or drifter. LFS is in decline, and if we can have fun on track, thats a bonus, but at the heart of the community (the forums), we need to settle down and start to build foundations and stay strong as a whole. Help the sim move forward, not spiral down in to some immature abyss.

I would also like to make a request to have this thread shut down, as all aspects are covered, as to reasons why people like and dislike drifting. Its all getting a little personal in some ways.

You know, racing is a lot of fun, but drifting is the real challenge if you want to do it right. 900 degree steering, clutch and H-Shifter, thats the real way to do it, and you dont understand how hard it can be to get full lock and hold it round the corner. Also twin or train drifting, getting as close the the other car whilst being as much sideways as possible. I can drift at 720 with H-Shifter, but not 900 yet. I have respect for the people that can.
