Quote from johnfromsunnymull :

Yea fingers crossed and yea dont worry i will i mean shoes only last well for me about 4-5 months LFS pretty much a lifetime!

Man, what are you doing with your shoes?

My shoes last for years, many many years, but I don't bite them too often either, LFS might last 10 or perhaps 15 years, shoes maybe 6-10 years, but I don't think much more as by then there is so much faster computers that it should be possible to make much complicated simulating then, of course thing is if anyone bothers, there seem to be not many that really are trying to make realistic driving sims.

well erm....i play football and well like to get new shoes every 4-6 months and they have to be white lol so my shoes do get dirty! and yea i suppse but im sure it will last longer than that! how long has LFS been going for?

From 2002

You can always wash shoes too, no need to get new ones every time they get dirty

it might depend on how u got the money. if its the pocket money u got from ur parents they could feel responsible on how u spend it coz its basically theirs. try to 'earn' the money in a proper way .. mowin the lawn par example

yes i have earned the money myself, i was asked to move beds out of a hotel and get asked every couple of days to go in and do some random jobs about the place, so yes i have earned it myself!

Thanks jamescrowe!

Good luck John, I can't see how your parents could object to LFS.

LFS teaches so much, it should be on the national curriculum

cheer duke! yea i know its just annoying and yea of course it should be lol

Hmm, you do notice that talking to yourself looks funny?

Bank account and sending money to devs is then one good possibility, however I find it weird why she says that she won't let you have LFS never, only reason I can find is that you are not doing home stuff or other things she asks or then she has some weird issues, very confusing this is

Here is the solution in a few easy steps:

Get cash saved up.
Go to Post Office.
Queue for ages.
Ask nice lady (or man!) for a £24.00 Postal Order (don't forget to say please!)
Put Postal Order in Envelope.
Put Letter in Envelope telling Victor who you are..(User Name etc!!)
Put Address on front of envelope along with a stamp (You can get them from the Post office too!!)
Put Envelope in post box.
Wait for a few days.
Check to see if Victor has unlocked your account on LFS homepage (User Details section!)


Like I said,....EASY!!!!

Failing that, send ME a postal Order for £24 and I will pay Victor with my Sparkly Credit (or Debit, depending on mood at the time) card!

yes i know very confusing? och i dunno she has allways been like that with spending money on games like PS2 and stuff like that but oh well! its just another bump in life i have to get over i suppose!

you could have just said send a check lol and i have thought of that, so that would have to be my next option! well if i had paypal myself it would be soo much easier!!!

Yes, well use the method Bladerunner is suggesting, should be quick and easy

That's a refreshing attitude from you, and I mean that most sincerely.

One last attempt....
I imagine when your 17 your parents will help you by paying for some driving lessons.
Currently it's £22 an hour down where i live. The average amount of tuition is around 30 hrs (trust me..my Dad was a driving instructor)

You will learn a lot about the basics of of control from LFS, therefore giving you a headstart over non sim drivers, and saving you a good few lessons.
Baring in mind by the time you start driving lessons they will probably be nearer £30 an hour, investing in LFS will save your parents at least £60

That my theory anyway

If that doesn't convince them, i don't know what will.

my parents are really hard to push over, but i will make them look at this thread and see what they say if they say no then i dont know what will make them say yes but if they do say no i will just have to sneak away a cheque!

Hmm, don't know if that is going to work as from their point of view it could be that you have taken family matter to public board and they can ban even Interenet from you then
