Banning System
This has been bugging me big style and it needs some way of sorting out. I find myself being banned easily for silly things such as hitting someone on the leaving of a corner and getting banned within seconds for just being an competitive racer. Where as in the next server there will be a 10 year old ramming everyone and ruining the race but because of how the banning system is done it takes a good 15 - 20 minutes to ban him or her.

So it needs to be corrected. In many games they don't set an amount of votes needed to ban that person. What they do is run the vote and however many people vote that's the total. Say 5 people voted, if 3 said yes and 2 said no that person would then be banned - or vice versa. I find this much more successful in getting rid of the idiots in games. As people don't have to participate in the vote if they don't wish to. This wouldn't stop the silly bans but it would help stop the frustration that these idiots cause on a daily basis.
then i suggest you find some reasonable people to race on a daily basis.
really you don't need to wonder if you get trown out if you to race with "hot-shots"
so don't take that audience to seriously.

i suggest you should visit decent servers which are around now for quite a while such as CTRA, FM, Redline Racing, Conedodges just to name a few of the good ones and i can assure you, as long as you do not act like a fool and obey the rules you wont get into trouble that easy. Of course i know what youre talking about, at some servers there are people around just to annoy others and unfortunatly the rest either dont really care as long as they are not beeing involved or they just want to finish the race.

Out of experience i can give you some advices to stay more out of trouble, no offensive language no matter how annoying people get, no revenge taking, obey the rules of each servers and the general rules, like not sitting on track, joining/ interupting a race while beeing lap(s) behind or simple wrecking other people. Of course, i cant speak myself free here but everytime i join a server i always try to act according to what i just said. Its not always easy but it can be if you learn to master your ego.

Stick with the good guys, ignore the troublemakes (attention whores) and you will have a hell lot of great races.

regarding your request, as far as i know people can choose to not participate on a vote call but independently from that, the system has been already changed and even more people where needed in order to proceed a call. Now we have people that either like or dislike it but the fact remains that there has to be a system to get rid of troublemakers and the one we have right now is quite effective and needs no more improvements from my point of view. Only problem is that a minority of users abuse the system. Finding a solution for this would be very pleasant but i doubt there is.

Correct me if im wrong.

Cheers
