As TAA says, you need to ask paypal why it doesnt have your country in its list. We are simply not able to accept Credit or Visa transactions, that is a choice that 500servers has made. It can be very expensive, and basically, not worth it for the small amount of clients who cannot use paypal.

That does exclude some, and as much as we would like to provide you with a service, sometimes, we cannot.

I suggest that you try some of the other hosting services out there, google will help you find them. Also, its christmas day, I wouldn't expect a reply from Franky500 for a few days, he should be taking some well deserved time away from the screen.

Unless you are paying for a year in advance, or a lot of servers on a regular basis, I think it is unlikely that you will be able to pay via bank transfer. Why not find a team member, or a friend in a country that paypal does support and ask them to pay for you, much easier all around.

Incidently, our payment methods are stated on our website, billing system and company forums.

Merry Christmas!

Quote from The General Lee :Just kill them like you said you would...

Quote :It's true that the names are not officially documentend on government files, but that's not the point. Nothings to stop me registerning those names as non profit organisation or company and then have every right to them, for all you know I could very well have. I havn't, but I'm just trying to make the point that I could have.

I understood the point that you could have, and if my memory serves me correctly, then you have over 50 servers. I would think about registering the "sillyproject" as a non profit org or company, because otherwise, its just two words stuck together, and im sure they are already "owned" in there own right.

For all I know, yes you could have made a registration, but there are also ways to check, so for all you know, I did.

Go ahead and have a whine, its a topic that interests me, which is why I posted.

Like teams within LFS or other games, there is nothing wrong with having the same initials or names as others. Perhaps this person who put up this "fake" server liked the name of your servers so much they decided to copy it to try and attract attention to their server.

Some of your comments on your forums disturb me slightly..

You say "Silly Project and SPTR" are taken names... where? where are they registered? A domain name is on its own not enough normally to claim names are "taken".

Its great to see your project looking strong, but with so many servers, surely you have to expect some negative attention too.

Are all the servers you have used? or are some of them sitting empty for more of the day? As the LFS Server market is way overcrowded already

Good Luck.

Thats quite a 48 hour period franky! I'd suggest taking a few good days over Christmas to yourself. I will be.

No idea to be honest Birder, first ive heard of any issues or that franky is not around. For-warning is great in theory, and of course in a perfect world, however, sometimes things just come up. Its not always possible.

So in the spirit of Christmas, im sure franky will be along shortly, he is probably out buying all his clients a christmas present, like he doesn't do enough to shame the rest of us already .

Quote from Venus :I'm going over to rFactor... this has been ruined now. Fox feels dead now.

Fox feels more like it should have for a long time, tip, try something else, go off for a while, you will always return to lfs.

Quote from Simpson :yeap, FOX + AS Club is not the same

Thats right, its quite different, but thats not a bad thing. Why not try another track or car, or both!

-deleted the uselessness quote, and post-

To the OP:

I was a little confused by it myself, when the preview video was out, it talked about changes to blackwood, and while I like the idea that its narrower, and it certainly seems more challenging to drive, I was expecting something more than a reduction in the run-off area, and the little curve that is down there at the bottom of the main straight.

Ive yet to see (yet to try either to be honest) but yet to see any change to "make it more interesting for lower powered cars" as was seemingly claimed in the preview video.

I was expecting some kinda chicane, temp or not on or after the back straight.

All in all, id like to give it more time before saying much more.

Quote from Rooble :Its hardly worthy of an announcement and it was only supplied to back up my point that I'm aware of people receiving warnings.

And 'you lot' - Well that lot would include you and it was meant as a joke, so just take a breather and don't jump too soon.

Excuse you. I did not say I did not include myself in "you lot", so just take a breather and don't jump too soon.

Do not paint us all with the same brush. However, having posted once, with a complaint, I doubt you will be back to read this.

The LFS Developers are under no obligation to inform demo or other users of any changes they wish to make. This is covered in the LFS Policy, which is something you obviously have not read.

Best of all, I love the "Why do we get withought a notice" line, what the hell are you expecting? You haven't bought the game, why should you get a notice?

By the way, this has been covered in several posts here already, why the need, except for attention the need for another thread?

Quote from Rooble :That reads as if you're almost offended by what I said, and I'm very much aware of the disciplinary action taken against offending users as I received my first warning last night.


Oh and reality TV has the added bonus (usually) of voting people off and such, I think it would be a decent addition to the forum gadgets!

Why do you feel the need to make that information public other than to arouse attention?

As for the "Forum Gadgets" - Do you honestly think that you lot could handle that? I doubt it.

You will find there is (and has been for a while) a force cockpit option within lfs, now I believe with the ability to personalise and tweak it. I say again, if you wish to look behind you, use your mirrors.

I dont believe its a bug. The viewing was restricted and looking back removed within LFS within Patch Y, its right there in the change log if you have a read and a search around. I would expect it to restrict movement with a TrackIR too.

The numer of degrees you can look left and right is changable within options.

As for looking back generally.. In a single seater, all you would see is the back of the cockpit, and if you were racing in a tin top, apart from having all kinds of protective gear on, harneses and restraints, you would probably not be able to fully turn to see behind you out of your helmet.

LFS is going for realism, I suggest you use the mirrors more
