Name thieves
There is two regular idiots I see, they're usually on an Ashton National server, I see them pretty much everyday and I usually end up voting to ban them. Very childish, they like to insult racers and their parents. They're wreckers, and they're becoming well known amongst the people that regularly drive on Ashton National with the GTR's.

After several arguements with them, one has stolen my name, and another has stolen avih's name. I guess they're going from server to server to try to give avih and myself a bad name.

Please note that my lfs username is Cropsy (not minicooper) and avih's is avih (not bartolocadiz), if you see them, please kick/ban them.
If you want to be really mean (and I do) then you can ban them when they're not even at the server I think (with admin commands).

Yep, just raced with them about an hour ago. They were on Kyoto GP Long in the FOX. We managed to ban one of them (minicooper). Can't remember the server name, but it's safe now anyway (for a while).
tip: before ANY banning or kicking, press CTL+SHIFT to see the REAL LICENSED NAMES instead of the nicks.
Support from CRC
Both of these drivers have been spotted in a CRC server and both have now been banned for 9000 hours, which is 375 days (apparently). So there will be no problems from them in our servers.

I hope this isnt the begining of the name stealing thing again!
was that you i was playing with cropsy a few hours ago?

minicooper again??

My god, what a dumba$$.
He is already well known for ruining races
#8 - avih
hmm.. didn't notice he used my name... but yes.. they're wreckers and very impolite in general... :/ we didn't manage to ban them yesterday, they always split before the vote is complete..

thx for the info cropsy..
you can vote after they quit apprantly
#10 - avih

oh?? i think u see "vote canceled" after the subject leaves...
met them one day on our server. Last time they were seen there
I cant belive that someone spend 36$ for a LFS license to be hated by all other people. Maybe he is a sadomaso or just stupid
That remind me on that funny german LFS movie "Pater Nuesschen 4". There he say: "When you want play online ,then you need at first a BRAIN! On that fail 60% of the people."
And when this Minicooper shows up our server he will get banned immediatly. (i had contact with this moron before too)

I'd like to be mean too, but I don't have admin rights to any servers apart from the cyber server but that is down at the moment. There is very rarely an admin around when those two idiots are there.

Minicooper came back again after you left, he started to whinge again after I wouldn't send him my setup, wrecked me, tried to ban him but he quit before we could, then he came back with my name.
Awhile after he left, Noefti came in and told me he was using my name on another server, I went to check it out and Bartolocadiz was using your name aswell as Mini using mine

I can't believe that we're having these kind of problems on S2, I expected this kind of thing on the demo, and of course wrecking, but this is getting as bad as S1 demo now.
Yep its getting worse not better.

I had this happen to me in demo as well, and its probably happening in s2.


Also had a Nutter who drives for a team ( no name's ATM) try to ban me from a race and I was not even racing !!, found him in team server and got a torrent of swearing , abuse then voted to ban me and some of his team mates voted as well.

What we out up with for our racing.. ehhh..

Cheers

yes i've seen minicooper on a server using the 4sr team skin and then going into a race and wrecking everyone and the first corner.

i asked him repeatedly to remove the skin but he just ignore my request (what a supprise)

Unfortunatly, any game you go to will have some irrisponsible people and act childish all the time.

Unfortunatly there isn't much we can do about it apart from ignore them and maybe they'll get bored and give up.

One day he'll meet REAL people, and hope go and destroy his few brain cells with them (minicooper and the like I mean).

You mean go drinking? Not the sort of people I'd want to socialise with.
Sounds like these fools are substituting a lack of driving skill with moronic acts of wrecking and spreading Ill feelings....I feel sorry for the losers !!

I think we should have a wanted list subforum, and people who catch them wrecking on their replays can post them up and build a sticky thread to gather evidence so we can permanently ban them from the game. They do it on other games so why not here !!?

Steve
Actually I was kind of hoping they just head butt walls to kill brain cells, or sniff aerosols (instantly fatal in some cases).
Quote from PistonHead :I think we should have a wanted list subforum

Nice idea, but we've done similar name and shame things in the past. Not a good idea I'm afraid. Its just one big mud slinging match
So you are saying that he has paid £24 to wreck races and create havok?

Wish I had money to waste like that.

This is indeed one sad and very lonely individual.

But just thinking, now when you pay for LFS, don't you agree to the license that you will drive clean and fair? Now if he is (obviously) breaking this, cannot the devs remove his license, or a temp ban?
good point fordie, but i think a ban will be better, and a £24 fee to get your account back. These guys sound like idiots, so chances are they cant do maths either
