That was childish.

Joking aside, iRacing has as diverse a range of members as anything
else, with many varied opinions. Heck they even let loons like
MacPherson in... :)
The test for iRacing will be to provide for such a diverse group. Some
see iRacing as the ultimate *** sim so want physics over everything
else, whilst others want a league type community experience and
development in this area. Others want features as a priority. I don't
think there is a stereotype iRacer...

I just got tired of bashing the iRacing by (some) people, because of
their childish reasons. I mean, why on Earth would someone attack such an
excellent simulation? -- Mario Petrinovic
Because it isn't worth what it costs? Because they force people to use real
names? Because the driving penalty rules suck and are not even reaslistic?
That's a few good reasons I can think of. No game is going to make me
divulge my real name online. That puts a risk on me for identity theft and
it just isn't going to happen. For that reason alone I resent the whole
iRacing concept.
Well, don't know about that. I don't have 50 games at home, and
iRacing isn't "just another" game for me. If I by 50 games and every game
costs as much as iRacing cost, for sure the price for those games would be
high. But I buy only 3 games (simulations) per year. Controlers for those
simulations cost more.
In every sport they do that.
It is MORE realistic than without it. And iRacing invented it.
Thanks iRacing.
Well, my real name is Mario Petrinovic. What's wrong with that?
Somebody else will use it? Well, maybe ther is some other Mario Petrinovic,
what can I do about this? Kill him? -- Mario Petrinovic
Quite the opposite. There are a lot of posts in iRacing forum about
being slow, and things like that. There are a lot older people (I am 46),
and there was even an initiative to start an "old farts" club. iRacing tries
to find a category for everyone, but the accent clearly is on maturity.
iRacing concentrate only on things important to racing. All the elements
that attract parents to buy a game for their toddlers so that they can "play
with their little cars" on a computer are left out of iRacing. As a
consequence, MATURE people enjoy iRacing very much. -- Mario Petrinovic

BTW, it takes a lot more than just knowing a persons name to steal their
identity!
Quit. This ***wit will be saying iRacing causes cancer next!

iRacing has succeeded if it does nothing but keep twits like this
away.
Not a lot more at all really. It has already been attempted on me once and
I am not going to give any info out on a public server that can even
remotely allow another attempt. There is no good ***ing reason to make
people use their real name for a goddamn game and anyone who thinks it is a
good idea is just stupid. That would be you, dumbass cunt.
