I think it's selected users who are both very mature and trustworthy, but who have been onboard the LFS project for quite a while, or/and who contribute in other ways.
Either way, there's been an influx of idiotic behaviour (imo) on these boards tonight, there has been some 4 or 5 threads regarding the Scirocco, LFS progress, or something else LFS progress related... at least a couple of them started by regular LFS Forum visitors...
And you guys wonder why the Dev's never tell us anything. You guys are like a pack of hungry wolves.

S14 is right. There is a lot of impatience around today, especially about the scirocco. It is early 2009 and many people are on tinterhooks about the new car, i know i cannot wait until its out, but to be fair, the devs have released a lot of test patches in recent months, which i can only guess that are additions that are necessary for the integration of the VWS.
Although the numerous threads today were not needed, i mean, you must have been living under a rock for nearly half a year to not know about the VW, sometimes it would be nice to know how the process is going with the car as a new car is a major bonus, and a hugely anticipated addition, i know it is the biggest thing to hit LFS since i joined.
You never know, maybe it is very nearly done and the devs will just go ' SURPRISE!!' and release it one day soon, which is good as i love surprises!

That's what she said !
On topic:
well ... it needs to be perfect before release because it is a new car that exists in real life and it is probably the best thing that happend to LFS since i play ( demo from 2003 till june 08 ).... so it is worth waiting
Agreed, but and those who do know, and are interested in the release (and LFS in general) would have surely read both the announcement on these forums, and the surrounding posts in that thread, and the statement that we were given on lfs.net?
We've been given infomation as to what's happening, and thanks to the behaviour of a select few (you know who you are..), we are highly unlikely to get any infomation in the future regarding any updates.
Heh, we can keep hoping. But really, people need to realise that :
A) The Dev's won't be rushed, and..
B) Nagging won't get it done any quicker, and in actual fact may even slow down progress.
Doesn't even look like a Scirocco Rocklan.

In before the lock.
I'd say more than 90% (maybe even 100%) of betatesters have been around since the very beginning in 2002 when the community still was very small.
The word "trustworthy" probably doesn't apply to a certain now apparently spanish guy, though.
LOL. I can't say anything. It's censored. Mini-guns would sprout from my ceiling and murder me.
:hide:
:hide:
ahahah.... man , you got to leave the matrix ... come to the real world.... here there isnt murders .... at least where i live :P
I'm also here since the very beginning of 2002 
But as a demoracer till July 2007
It shows I'm in the community for long
ME WANTZ TO BE BETA TESTER
*hides from burning banana's*

You need a vest that adds dodge banana invulnerability rating, because you sir, will get a :bananadea from me.
Really?
I think not.
You really need to consider the consequences of your actions. Some people really didn't like the Scirocco delay, some people are really beginning to get impatient. I know it may be a joke but don't expect everyone to think it is one or think it is funny.
[/rant] Though I am still young I am really getting irritated at seeing people who have maturity or are capable of having it act really immature or stupid. Why so serious? I and some people don't find your fun to be fun to us. At least show some maturity.[rant]
If anyone finds this the least bit offensive, I'm sorry, but it's something I have grown to hate seeing everyday, like my brother.
HOLY SH*!!!
I really fell for the last one! LOL
I opened both pages in another tab, and kept browsing other websites without looking at these, then I saw the first image and thought: "hm that's a great photoshopped picture", but didn't see the other one.. after some time closing other tabs that one of the lfs website appeared on the screen, and I was like " :eye-poppi ", then I read the text but didn't get it even after reading it because I was still chocked with the scirocco release, I scrolled up the page again and looked at the car picture, didn't look at anything else and then scrolled down and tried clicking in the link... that's when I noticed it was just a picture
/facepalmHow could I fall for it so easily? The text doesn't match, there's "NOOB!" written in the news, the last post is from Jan 4th (old, and the same as the "postponed" one), part of the text (current version, racers online) is messed up, that account isn't mine and the borders are white! And I still fell for it! lol!
I think I wouldn't fell for it if I had seen this picture from the beginning instead of browsing other websites...
You should have seen my face when I first saw this picture...
This is so truth...
I'm sorry that ofcourse wasn't my intention.
It's so horrible that like the half community is so impatient, and whining to the devs.
I started another discussion bout the VWS by accident
I'm sorry for that, that was not my intention.
Bob could you close this thread?
Well, to have something cool about to happen not happen does bum people out. Lots of us are not whining, we're just a little bummed that's all. It'll go away once the Scirocco comes. A little humor doesn't hurt, just be careful about when to insert humor. Again sorry for sounding harsh.
You don't sound harsh if you asked me :P
I guess it will only really start then, tbh.
Well here's three things that you did wrong.
And is that before or after you made a simular thread, only to have it removed? 
we are waiting for such a long time
..FBM is also a real car.but why It didn't take such a long time?
maybe dut to the limit of the setup?

The dev team are pefectionists, they won't release it before they really mean it's DONE, and no further coding and such are needed.
You might be able to find this information in other posts to prove me wrong:
But, we don't know exactly how long they took to create the FBM in comparison to how long we were preview to the information. This is before my time here with LFS.
We don't know how long they were working on the Scirocco before we were preview that either. We found out through sources outside the dev team. They only confirmed the rumor as a respect to community. Proving they probably have never lied to us in the past either. Also, the limited setups would defiantly slow things down.
Perfectionists. Yes they are. This will make Mrwei a happier Happy Boy when it's all done and on the LFS roster of cars.
