Quote from Becky Rose :"r u a pussy?" and "r u female?" are not good ways to start a conversation when spotting a female racer and wanting to be sure before you start your smooth moves.

When you talk to a man online you talk about the game, try to do this with girls too ... They're playing the game because they enjoy it and they're into racing ... it's a shared interest and something which might help the two of you get to know each other.

So try not to start with "a/s/l?".

Scoping out your potential "hussy" for potential based upon age and location - after confirming their sex of course - is not going to get you very far.

I am a woman, and I play LFS.

I watch the conversations online and never once have I seen anyone else get asked their sex or age, every now and then I see people get asked where they are from. Yet conversations with me in over 90% of cases always start with age / sex / location.

Do you honestly believe I give i'd date a freak I met on the internet? The answer, before you give opinion, is no. There is a remote chance I might date a normal guy I first meat in LFS - but it wont be because they kept interupting my frikkin driving by demanding my a/s/l and not letting up until I answer when i'm trying to race (or more likely, trying not too crash).

If you really really want to date a girl you meat on LFS, try being normal. Try not being judgemental over whether she's really a woman, and instead of harassing her whilst she is trying to race - how about lending a hand instead of crashing into her because you want her attention.

I don't log on to LFS because I want the server to fall over themselves around me. I log on to race cars because I love car racing, motor racing is in my family.

What's more, i'm middle-aged and too old for half of you, and not attractive enough for the other half.

I just want to race, if I want to play a dating game i'll sign up for ICQ or something.

And I really do not give a damn about whether you believe i'm female or not, I dont have to prove anything to any of you - other than that i'm safe enough to be on the same track, which is arguable.

christ, thanks for that statement of common sense - lfs is turning into yahoo chat - you bunch of dirty beasts you :P

Because of the situation this afternoon - veryend has been removed as an admin, I would also like to point out that it was myself, weegie and another who started the server, veryend joined as an honourary admin.

Hopefully this will be an end to all sides of the argument now that everything has been said and out in the open.

Yes, That was me and while i'm not very proud of the actions i took in that replay, at the time I felt that was the only form of action I could take... for weeks the admins had bullied me and mocked every race that i took part in, jumping at the chance to mock my lack of skill and the fact i was taking other racers out, when you watch the replay - notice i am taken out ( racing incident - it happens ! lol) but that FM stay very very quiet... now ask yourself this, if that was me crashing someone else out, would they have been so quiet...

Also, to even things up slightly, why is there no mention of the bullying that takes place on the FM server? Or the biased-restart policy? Or the fact that it's "Failure's server and he will do what the f*** he likes with it" - yet you try to pass it off as a community server?

Heres an audio interview with FM members - taken about a week ago

Enjoy. (P.s. you lot were asked to leave it, i guess that didn't get through)

Quote from 510N3D :lol dont tell me to stop something i did not started at all, btw who and why did this Thread?! To present you and your server? Funny but not true. And i know veryend longer then you and i know what im talking about when i say he is a Liar.

I know people like you that tries to destroy everything if its not funny anymore or if its getting to hard to handle. And you guys are the perfect example for that.

No im just defending very end against personal attacks, I think you are being a spokesperson for the FM community here and it is very VERY sad to see the lengths you are going to, to pursue an argument.

I would encourage everyone watching this thread to have a long hard think at why this thread is going our of control, and why it has spiralled into this. Fair enough about discussing the server or any issues but please keep personal attacks out of it.

Quote from 510N3D :post #68...

btw i havend expected anything else fireball

when its getting seriously you allway block or lie thats so funny to see.

*sighs* because flame wars really dont have much place here, and seriously don't start on me because i've been more than civil in here - and just to clarify - veryend has said nothing but the truth in here, so you can take your elitest little community and leave the thread alone...

Quote from 510N3D :TVE: I show people my real attitute, I am what I am, if you don`t belive me, come racing with me, and I`ll show you who I am.

i did several times, your goal is to win no matter what it coasts and if youre not going to win you crash. want me to post some replays? got a collection going back to the old days...


TVE: You talking about attitutes, now listen, I quote some of you from VT speak we got with you.
Crazy Harry and Failure "This is our server, we don`t need ****ers like you and the others, we do what we want!. You are as bad as the ****ing new n00bs that allways destroy the racing"
- Ok, I understand some of your points, but as you say, you don`t give new people a chance in hell to race with you, if they accidently spin at start you just simply kick them. What is that? Why not help them?


Liar without getting red in the face.


TVE: "We are not racing for fun, we are serious, and if that means we got to ban all ****ing n00bs that can`t drive, then ok"
- Ok I understand your point of veiw, but all the "****ing n00bs", are all other people that ain`t FM : |


Speak for yourself and then it fits.



TVE: And after I had tried to speak with you normal for 30 mins, you just laughed at me, and aswell other that tried that talk to you. When people tries to be serious you are just laughing at them, like fireball had a word with you, 22 mins conversation, he was honest and personal, you just ignored him and laughed at him.
How can you be the right to speak about attitutes?


Oh well i did talked to fireball seriously but we where going in circles so let me show you the post from our forum again and then im out of here:


You lost your pants and showed off your real attitude in those 30 minutes. All we could hear was a ignorant little ****** who tried to convince us that he did never anything wrong. And if this conversation happend like you said, it would had been only 5 minutes long.


So lets say it this way, you dont give a ****, we dont give a ****.

Changes has been given to many times and i advice get over it and learn but i think i expect to much from you.

well kindly shut up and stop with a bleeding flame war - the pair of you grow up and just move on - christ

I think that the drafting has to be tweaked because its simply far too powerful, it reminds me of a racing game at times with it.
I think maybe a 3-5mph boost in speed when slipstreaming someone instead of nearly 10 would be better, and also would allow for tighter racing.

I'm not a big fan of bumping either, it gives the group a slightly unfair advantage.

Now to address some previous questions:

1. Why are we STILL named (OM): We are not going to change our name simply because it's not convenient to other servers, we aren't FM, we don't want to be FM and we will NEVER be FM. (OM) was started by a disgruntled group of regulars from the FM server, (OM) stays to show that.

2. Noobs on the oval: This still really annoys me, about how elitist everyone gets and distances themselves from new racers, sure you might think a lot of "noobs" are simply wreckers and have no interest in racing, but if you actually take 5 minutes from your dictatorship and talk to them, give them a setup and give them a few tips, it's quite cool to see the difference that makes. Most of them can keep the car stable, keep up with the pack and actually feel like there racing.

3. Ban's: Well we just had to ban our first person last night, for deliberatly standing on the track and having a very poor attitude. He will be unbanned and is very welcome to think about his behaviour and actually have a proper race with us, It took us 15 minutes to ban him last night, as we were all on ventrillo and really REALLY not wanting to ban anyone. But it seemed as if thats what he was gunning for. *sighs*

4. Being Different: right let's get something straight, we are a racing community, so unfortunatly thats something we will always share with some other servers, however we differ from our friendly approach to running the server, our non-abusive admins who encourage all racers, and the amount of new faces we have seen in the server. We don't slag people off, We have a clear restart policy, We do NOT judge ourselves to be above the racers and we want everyone on the server to enjoy themselves as much as you can while going 215mph round a concrete circuit.

Quote from f1r3b4ll :lol the post was posted by a fan of the server, respect is given to EVERYONE on the server, automatically !

That is why the community is going to be so open, the only difference betwee n admins and normal racers is that we are responsible for paying to keep the hosting services running and are in charge of the website and the race server etc...and generally oversee races and help racers....

The server is for any skill and ANYONE is welcome, we will help you with setups, tips about the racing line to take.. racing etiquette and anything else you may need...

Also - I just actually seen what you meant - the message when connecting to the server ... changing it

Being one of the admins on the server, I have to say thanks to Elanor lol I had no idea he was posting away and promoting the server, well done you!

Anyways, the Oval Munkys server was started off after a few regulars of another server became pissed off at the way it was run and masked as a community when they really picked and chose who was to be involved and part of that community, our community is going to be for everyone who wants to be part of it, regardless of your skill.
We offer a basic shared setup for the F1 cars and encourage for races to be a bout improving driver skill, rather than slating your opponents and a constant torrent of abuse.

As for the text spam, I agree completely... but how much of the complained spam was from the server and how much was contributed by admins !
At OM we are also running LFSLapper, but are still tweaking and deciding what settings shall be on and what shall be off, we are also working on a privacy mode so with a comment like !silence in chat the plugin will not send messages to that player... Some people find the data useful - some don't, we want to give racers that choice.

Please feel free to drop in the server in the next few weeks while we finalize everything, in the past two days we have went from a pissed off group, to the core of a racing community with great ideas, a fast server and the desire to include everybody who wants to be a part of it.

I know this sounds really daft but its so simple! right the broadcaster needs two pcs, one pc to spectate in the race - actually connected to the server, then feeding the video and sound to a second pc via a capture card.

You could easily add effects, commentary or really anything else, this would work with Windows Media, RealServer or even (the most likely) WinampVideo... its so easy to setup a winamp server and you can easily adjust a hirable music server to stream the races, if anyone wants more details then give me a shout

Quote from Spudster :NOBODY JOIN!!!!!

THEY ARE ALL N00BS!!!!!

IMHO THIS EVENT SHOULD BE STOPPED!!!!!

IMVHO THEY SHOULD BE TAUGHT MANNERS AND THE MEANING OF RESPECT AND INTELLIGENCE BEFORE THEY ARE EVER ALLOWED TO PLAY LFS!!!!!

IMO I AM LESS ANNOYED BY THE iDi CLAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I usually don't reply to troll's but I strongly disagree with your attitude, from what I can see your idea's are very generic in the first place...

If this guy has explicitly stolen your idea and passed it off as his own then be civil about it, talk to the guy and don't start acting like some child whose had his lollipop stolen.

I haven't been on these forum's long but I can see its mostly filled with articulate, intelligent people...lets keep it that way eh..
