Hi, I like the idea with this server..longer races often..that´s great:

I just have some additionary, maybe foolish proposals, because i know it will suit me personally better and then I think it possible would do so too for others.

I better come with my proposal here:

I would like a more frequent rotation. Skip the qual..let people practice on another server.

then

race rotation with 2 combos. Then people can choose to stay or go to the other server to practice for the combo they prefere.
18.00 - 18.40 as3
18.45 - 19.25 so5
19.30 - 20.10 as3 again
etc.

this chosen comboes could be there for 1 week at a time. why not? and make a schedule for everyone to see.


Why 2 and not more comboes? This will allow people with duties (children, homework and so) at home to come at the time, they can because the combo will be avaible several times on different hours.

ps. maybe 3 comboes could work as well, but i prefer 2.

I search for information about the point and license system???

Thx mates

I would like to see a replay of the first race. Could anyone
make a thread for replays and post it there.

Quote from jasonmatthews :

I am not complaining at all regarding the development speed of LFS. My gripe is with the lack of information regarding it's progress, which I believe has had a negative affect on the community. I totally understand Scawen's reasoning, which he has stated quite clearly, but I urge him to reconsider his view. It seems to me that he has changed the way LFS works fundamentally, to please the wrong people....

I came into playing LFS quite late (4 years ago), but was lucky enough to witness it's evolution from the very beginning (2002), due to my brother and mates. What I saw was a sim developing with the community involved, and it seemed like a new way of doing things. That, in the last year, has been totally dumped in favour of a big game company approach, i.e. we will tell you about what we have done when it's done.

This has, in my opinion, had a tragic effect on the core followers of the LFS "project". The old skoolers who care so much about LFS and have avidly followed it's progress for the last 7 years, are now left with nothing but noobs, cruise servers and drifters posts, and moans about the Shicokko... I would bet a million dollars (if I had it) that most of the old community, who have been around for at least 3 years or so, couldn't give a flying f**k about the scirocco, but care deeply about what Scawen "wants" to do in the future.

This used to be the way LFS worked, but not anymore it seems....

The forum community, as it is now, needs to understand where the thousands of us, who have been around for a long time, are coming from. Show some respect to the Devs and also to the people (hosts, mods, programmers etc) who have made this sim what it is. If you do.... Maybe, just maybe, the Devs will give us back the LFS Project that we all have supported for so long, and stop listening to the pathetic whining little kids that have infected our sim

Very well written Jason

I just have a feeling, that some people "look" more on the environment than "living" in it.

I really don´t care how fast the tracks and cars wil come. I find challenges everytime i go to a track. If i am bored, it´s not because of the sim,. It´s because of myself. (Sometimes, I better do something else and not sit in front of that wheel all the time)

Of course I also have some wishes (for example making pitting and damaging more interesting and realistic), but the most important thing for me is the people I race with. So if i find those people in LFS, things are fine for me. If I don´t, I get disapointed and bored.

If somone want to go to another sim...well..do that off course! Don´t hold yourself back...I hope you take the annoying people with you

Anyway...good trip Franke,,seems you have converted

I also like his choices of music and god movies. i just have one wish about the movies. Less clips from long distance and more incar clips from close battles

Quote from seniecka :

Hey again, guys, here is video of Round 7 - South City Long Reversed http://vimeo.com/5032146. Enjoy.

Great video and great choice of music too (especially "Burn" by Deep Purple)

I support the idea.
It will mean that servers in general get more demanding, that you have to work hard for your representation. And we all know that if we work hard for something, we will respect it more and therefore result in a better behaviour on the server.

It will also be important to have less demanding servers, gradually, so people find a server they think fits their driving skils at the moment and can help them to improve.

But, what can be done, if people get worser? Some people, get pb which, they made when they begun..then they start driving less serious or they have been away for some time.

Therefore I think the time (not neccesarily the pb) which is inside the margin, should be a time which is set not longer than 1 month before the attempt to enter the server

Victor,
As Unity Racing Series is inactive at the moment, you can put it away for some time. There´s is no actual plans about leagues in the near future.

Quote from heson :

You have certenly gone overboard on this. (the namecalling that is)

Watch a few touringcar races, like wtcc, and you see that the standard is "if you can cut without breaking the car too much, you cut". At some very few circuits there are special corners has a no cut rule set by the officials where they give warnings for cutting (mostly becuase it damages the track or pulls up dirt on the track)

The easiest rule is, if the game permits it, its OK. If the game permits eccessive cutting, the game is wrong and should be fixed, like making the suspension weaker, the grass bumpier or the tyres dirtier. (fill the the air intakes with grass and sand).

I agree! Then we wouldn´t have all these stupid discussions

Quote from RevengeR :

Trust me, you don't gain time by cutting there. You mess the last turn if you hit the grass in the chicane. And the time gained in the chicane isn't compareable to the time you lose in the last turn. No matter if you cut with 2 wheels or 4. Try it, check it.

You are completely right.

I have found and attached the replay, wherefrom all this discussion began. It was as1, right! It´s from 3rd of february 2009. Here you can see, I have sometimes 2 wheels on the curb and 2 wheels on the grass and i´m hitting the cones, sure! I hit them, because in my opinion, they were malplaced there in the raceline . I knew that he was experimenting with the layout, so i really didn´t think, that this could harm him. Actually, I commented this to him on teamspeak, suggesting to remove them from there.

Anyway, I don´t want to come there anymore. Not because of the special rules, but because of the rude treatment I got there, just because of this..

Whatever replay it is, it clearly shows the way i´m driving and your too. I think you (overboard) overdramatize a lot here

Overboard:
In post 33 I have told my opinion. You can keep your server for yourself, because i´m not interested in your way of treating people, who come there. I don´t want to be accused for being a cheater and a liar. I don´t want to see you treating people like you do. You are a very bad admin. Go practice instead! I have better joy elsewhere. Get a life!

I think , what you do is harressing me, and I will think about reporting you to the owner of this forum, if you don´t stop!

EDIT: I have a attached a replay, which shows you the way I drive. I don´t think a lot of you would say that I really am cutting. I´m actually a very calm driver.

But don´t forget, what I don´t like is your behaviour, not so much your rules!

I am Kenn Cramer, who is mentioned in the first post.

Quote from Overboard Productions :

So now because of drivers who lack honesty, integrity and the ability to keep there car on the track at all times, our track looks like Old Mcdonlds, farm.

The real problem is, that you (overboard) have taken this personal. I have told you that I would do whatever the server rules says, but there was no especific rules for this. You put some cones, and I commented to you, that I would have prefered to have them removed, because I think they were in the racing line. You have another idea..ok for me, but don´t call everybody a cheater, just because you have your own ideas..and they were not even written down at the time being.

I would also apreciate, if you (overboard) could write about this interesting topic without mentioning names. It just shows you have a personal problem with me.

I would also have prefered that you informed me, that you were going to write this post and critizicing my driving. Then it could give me a fair way to make answers to this post. It was just because a friend of mine told me about it, i can correspond to it.

Quote from Kaw :

How can you call him a cheater by using a little bit of the grass? That is stupid imo. And dont you see the tires LFS dev's put there in first place, they are blocking for complete cutting.

And arent Name and Shaming not allowed on this forum?

Quote from [DUcK] :

Well in LFS, i think to put it pretty simply: 2 tyres off the track at almost any time is okay, 3 or 4 is fail. Simple as that, and I'm quite sure that applies to almost every corner on all tracks (this is HLVC).
There's been many, many arguments about this in the MoE race at Ky long, the chicane coming off the oval section. The rule is, that you must have at least 2 tyres on the track at all times. The kerbing is included as the track.

Kaw,DUcK, DevilDare among others have understood the problem here correct!..thx

By the way, sorry for showing this, but according to your principles..I have seen the replay. And you are not any different. Look at the attached files for example. That´s exactly the "cutting" that you are critizising me and others for doing, but you do it yourself...there and other places..and it´s not the only times on that replay. And it´s you, Overboard (OBP 55)

I´m just telling you to relax and don´t think that you are more right than others. What is right and what is wrong is to be discussed, but it´s good to listen to others and look at yourself before judging.

Seems like Nordic Racing throw all away in the last two races, where they didn´t come, so the strong 4 Stroke Racing Team won the team title, Unity became 2nd and Nordic Racing 3rd.

This is a team competition where it´s not sufficient to be fast but also consistant and 4SR-T have proved to have these qualities.

So a big CONGRATULATIONS to 4 Stroke Racing Team and again thank you all teams who participated.

ps. Redmist didn´t come on the podium, but Redmist Justing really fought for it. I apreciate it very much..Thank you!
