Hmm seems like a lot of false guilt to me. I dont think they care to race fair at all. Looks to me that neither of them can race well anyway so maybe thats the root of their frustrations.
A master ban-list as someone suggested would be a great (and simple) idea.
1 site hosts a master list which people download and update their LFS with on a regular basis.
Of course proof would be needed before someone got on that list.
As for the race, well I was just watching the top 2 guys. What a race that was. Huru-aito and Casper going at it lap after lap with tenths splitting them.
Great racing guys. Compliments to you. Thats what online racing is all about
HAHA, yeah. Cars that can lay smoke screens, oil slicks etc. To fend off those behind him.
James Bond tyre rippers for those who like to scrape paint alongside you.
That would be sooo much fun. (no weaponry though - just defensive gadgets).
Van racing gets my vote also, that would really be so cool and do-able.
Sounds like we need an LFS Court. Sort of like a governing body, like the FIA
Cases are sent to LFS Court, with proof (replays etc) and if any licence penalties are handed out to wreckers or other idiots, it goes to LFS Central and the licence is revoked for a set amount of time.
The only way that will work is if your online name matches the name you licenced S2 with (or some identifying licence number).
So then maybe we can apply for LFS driving licences which are all numbered and that is shown by force on the 'Name over cars' feature. That way all the driving licence numbers are kept by LFS admin and they know who people are.
So I would be F1Racer-218543 and if I change my nick it would be F1R-218543. My licence number stays with me whenever I race online.
Nice in an ideal world but maybe LFS is programmed to deep to implement such features.
That is so sad What a couple of low-lifes.
Nothing better to do than ruin what was a really good clean race.
I really dont understand this kind of mentality and attitude.
I myself am not known for having an even temper, and as angry or frustrated as I might get while racing, I could never ever bring myself to do something like this to people I dont even know and have never done anything to me.
The only thing that would make me deliberately hit someone and/or spoil their race, is if they did it to me first - if I was provoked (which has happened before).
I would never go out there to ruin any races, so if I crash or hit someone, its always by pure accident and never with bad intentions.
But to just join a race in order to ruin it... well its just the pinnacle of arseholiness.
Might be an idea for people to agree to simply not join servers that dont allow kick/bans to be voted for. Then the server admins would have to enable it if they want people on their servers.
Not having that option is suicide in times like that.
I would also definately be in favour of a car being automatically sent to spectators area for the duration of the race (or even kicked) if they are 'camping' on the track for more than say 5-10s. But again, thats easy to get around by edging the car forward and backwards in small increments.
I hope a workable solution can be found to weed out these tossers who have nothing better to do than play with their pricks and ruin peoples races.
