I honestly think people are miss understanding what tristan is saying. I partially agree with him. '"The people" his talking about (this is what i understud from reading this posts) is the people that shoulndt be playing LFS in the first place, not because they are new, or because they dont drive with a wheel, but the "kinda of people" that want NFS not LFS, thus wanting it to have arcade features, that cant understand that in this game you have to do the driving, you have to brake in a certain way so you car is under control, you have to understand a least a bit of wheight transfer ( i think this is how its spelled).
I honestly think that hes not saying that he doesnt want new comers, but the NFS type of people (dont take it personally with you drive NFS and play LFS, i mean the OMGZ da gam3 sukz, we need NOZZZ, that kinda kinda of mentality) sorry but those people shouldnt be playing LFS in the first place, beucause their objectives and LFS are the oposites.
Either you like or not, LFS is elitist by it self, we have a very select market, those who dont fit it (so to speak) were not meant to be in LFS, because their expectition will never reach LFS's, so this is the "people" that want nozzz, that will need a racing line so they know when to brake, when to turn, but till still would crash you if you were in the racing line, because the computer didnt told them to change line.
