Off-Topic / Re: Visit Russia before Russia visits you

« on: March 05, 2014, 04:10:57 am »

I don't really want to comment a lot about it because I think I'd still need more info, but here's something I read that I found more interesting than most articles I had read (often written by people who just scratch something quickly because their boss asked them to): http://www.newrepublic.com/article/116837/dmitri-simes-interview-why-russia-isnt-taking-us-seriously
If you don't feel like reading all of it I'd advise you to skip to question 6 "Let's go back to the US for a moment...".

And I'd also just like to point out, not particularly related to this issue, that all countries who have or used to have significant power have done or are still doing horrible things (I doubt there's any exception to that), not that it's an excuse for it but reading this topic (as many times) there seems to be a bit of "those are evil those are angels" going on.

PS: I did find the title of the topic funny though but it's much more true for western countries.

Feel free to organize one

But I'm not sure now is a good time because there are too many server crashes.

What's a nice place between Nice and Paris we could visit? Or is it not worth stopping in between lol.

About 1/3 of the distance from Nice to Paris, there's Lyon, one of the major French cities. I have never been over there but I'd like to and from what I've heard, it's a really nice city, known to be France's "gastronomic capital". And also close to Lyon (about 50km to the East) is a small mountain city Chambéry which should be really nice.
Or if you don't mind doing a little detour via Switzerland that could be even better.

Also you might have thought about it before but if you want to save money for the trips, you can look for carpooling websites. I've used a few times a French one which had several trips across France and neighbouring countries (at least Belgium and Switzerland). If you're interested in the name of the websites about carpooling or long-distance buses and trains  for France you can just ask me.

If I have banned you then it could have happened only in 2013, not 2,4 years ago, since I've first started using this nickname only in 2013.
If you try to remember the nickname(s) used when you got banned that'd help us. Was it "WhatTheFuck" ?

That could be nice (apart from certain races where you have to hit fences), then maybe first an automatic warning line in main chat after 3-5 punches, and then auto-freeze or/then auto-jail could be possible and fair? Deactivate after a race is over and in lobby.

The main problem with that issue is, first that the spec would happen most likely after the death, and second that there are some guys who'd kind of abuse that, like if they are the ones who start fighting and when somebody fights back they report him. Which is why imo it should first be a main chat warn for people (mainly the reported guy but as a reminder for all) not to fight during a race (unless it's IV of course) and then if we see the player starting again some punishment. It goes a little bit the same as for ram and block... when somebody reports a rammer it's obviously after getting rammed, so we have to see it happen again clearly on purpose (the "on purpose" part is not necessary for fighting as I don't know of any unintentional fighting lol).
As for lobby and ended race I think it should be more tolerated, sometimes maybe just ask/do sth because it can still be annoying, but there's no race being wasted or anything.

It seems many people get bugs that DQ them :/ so did I:

I spawned in LV (with no car during countdown but then I automaticaly got one after so it'd be like a second lost) far away from cp 1. I take my time thinking anyway I'll get to race try 2 (ask in main chat if there's a way to skip first try then race) at about 4:00 I reach cp 1 and immediatly get DQ'd for "trying to practice". :/ I don't really care but it seems too many people get bugs that DQ them.

67. ... - 2:55.373

Haha ouzo, tempting fate?

To make such a low end time Ouzo had to be eating some frogs' legs during his run.

lol, these days I'm playing on laptop, which I am really not used to (if you see me chatting on server you might notice also a lot more typos than usual) and I have an average FPS of about 50 (not too badà but it would often drop so I failed a lot of turns couldn't be arsed to finish 2nd run.

19 players left to race, so far out of 71 opponents only one did worse than me I doubt 9 more will either make worse or not race/disqualify

Unban Requests / Re: Too long banned...

« on: May 13, 2013, 05:01:34 pm »

I don't think it's necessary to explain the situation for any admin who has seen you online, but I'll explain it for any admin who might not have seen you online yet. As for explaining it for you... I seriously doubt you're even taking your own request seriously.

So it was about your attitude in general, the trolling wasn't within 5 minutes before the tempban but in general, you kept teasing/harrassing random players like training telling how you'd beat him, joined with the tag [AK47] without even asking anyone then asking to join random clans telling "I can join FSR ivka is FSR and she's not even good, I'm a lot better" and many other things I can't even recall. The blocking wasn't just that time too, you'd often block in races. And the spamming, you told it yourself.

And to tell you the truth, within a few seconds after banning you for a week, I regretted not setting at least 2 weeks, because you didn't mention it but you're Pro_racertje, who got banned for a week for pretty much the same reasons, the tempban expired not long ago (2 or 3 days?) and you've learnt absolutely nothing, so don't tell that:

1 day for the ban would be already enough to teach me not to block, but no he have to ban me for 7 days for nothing....
Hopefully the ban can be removed so i can play again i won't block a guy anymore..

You have only shown that you never learn.

I am sure if we had discussed among online admins how long of a tempban you deserve considering you've always been acting like that and after the tempban that expired you still act the same way (maybe you'd think people wouldn't recognise it's you if you change your nickname?) the length would have been 2 or 3 weeks, so in my opinion you're lucky.
