I spent two years on HAWAII, (which was great!!) then was on the NROS
testing team for a couple of weeks before they went public and then
spent a couple more months on TEN trying to keep from getting booted off
every other league race. I finally gave up.
They still haven't gotten their act together. It's a shame, too. I
loved racing in online leagues, but what's the use if you can't finish
half the races because of being booted.

If you get booted out of half of your races..It's definitely a problem on
your side and not on TEN's side.
TEN's % of boot is near 5-6% of drivers per race. The mass people running
on the NROS have rarely boots. I would check your PC to see it's health if
you had this problem. Sometimes it can go as far as switching ISP's,
because to each users his own hops mostly. Some users might go to TEN's
servers with a very bad router while going to it, and switching ISP solves
the problem.
Im sorry you gave up, TEN is much better when you have a PC in health and
tweaked for the NROS. The same goes for any online multiplayer ***, from
air sims to FPS shooters to even GPL.

No it's not.
The "It's your ISP" problem was related to early problems back in the end of
1997 when most of the NROS users were using Concentric. That company had
big problems and it was clearly their fault.
Please do not say stuff like that. It hurts because TEN is actually the best
current form of online racing you can get, in terms of warp, latency, and #
of drivers. And it's a NASCAR sanctioned series.

It's your choice, but saying that TEN is often offline is totally false and
portrays a false image to the service.
It has downtimes of around 5-10hours per week in it's WORSE weeks, and there
is many weeks that TEN will never be down for the whole 168hours. I could
prove this to you if you want.

well I have to agree with you. The NROS is at the mercy of Sierra, and it's
all up to them to decide if it's time for the NROS to go forward or die,
whatever the consequences it means.

TEN has the attitude: "If you don't like it, tough. Go somewhere
else." Fine. I did. I think they, and their "service," suck. ***y
shame too. I loved racing when it worked. It just doesn't work much.
