Unban Requests / Re: Unban 22/09
« on: September 24, 2018, 01:09:17 am »
I'm not the guy who banned you, but you do have 2 kind of hard to believe Top1s in races plenty of fast people had played before you, and your account is literally some hours old.

You and [MiBR]Verstappen will be unbanned in 2 days, 6/08/18. Don't try to join the server or your ban length will increase.
If you're gonna spam use the chat group as you just said, not the main chat.
Next time the ban will be longer, so don't do it again.

You have to wait until your unban date, which now is 17/08/2018.
No podés jugar hasta ese día, ya falta poco, si te seguis metiendo se te va a alargar el ban.

Suggestions / Re: Non-tapping motorcycle races mode!
« on: May 09, 2016, 04:26:51 pm »
+1, I'm too used to drive with the mouse and also the main reason I hate bike races is because of the annoying tapping.
I'd even be happy if this mode was applied to every bike race there is. (I guess you could still tap in SKs lol)

Off-Topic / Re: The Truth about Zika virus (Government likes to say these are only rumors)
« on: February 27, 2016, 10:34:49 pm »
I don't see the point in modifying a virus if they can't make a profit out of it. What would be the point of modifying the Zika virus so that it causes microcephaly if there's no vaccine or cure for the virus (disease goes away on its own actually) or cure for microcephaly?
Also, you mention that people in labs actually have cures for some virus, but if that were the case, why wouldn't they announce it? It would be very profitable, from a purely ''people buy the cure'' point of view and from a ''marketing'' point of view, considering it would give more recognition to the laboratory. They'd only lose money if they release them for free, but who says they have to do it for free?
The problem with microorganisms is that they can mutate pretty fast and evolve and gain resistance/methods to avoid death, therefore finding a cure is harder. The best example are influenza viruses, which have a new vaccine literally every year because of their mutations. But I agree that for example, in HIV, it is much more profitable to just keep selling the drug cocktail they usually give to HIV+ people than releasing a cure.
Well the thing with cancer is that it's not a disease, but a group of diseases which have in common to have a disregulated celular cycle. So you can't ''cure cancer'' because it is literally over 100 different diseases. What may be done is to cure a particular sub-type of cancer. For example, breast cancer has these sub-types (actually more if you grab a proper phatology book but i cba to scan it now) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_breast_cancer_cell_lines

There's still not officially a link between zika virus and microcephaly. What there is is a correlation, but correlation does not equal causation.
Also, I wouldn't take newspapers as reliable, good sources when it comes to science (or at least health/biology/medicine), because they just seem unable to forget about their sensationalism. You have no idea the amount of shits I read from newspapers (or media in general) when it comes to health/medicine/biology.
In a nutshell
Are you implying that pharmaceutical companies create virus? I don't see how that can be possible.

In a nutshell
As a laboratory technician I can tell you that those accusations about the origins of viruses/vaccines are NOT meaningless. Yes, there are people who believe in every possible conspiracy theory, but pharmaceutical industry is a big system with a lot of malfeasance cases so it's justified to have doubts about anything related to it, including the origins of certain viruses.
