Folks, a very high level marketing group did a study on RAS recently,
to see why people post on here.  Me, being the reporter that I am,
thought you all should know the results...

10)  To check up on the latest polls of whether Grand Prix Legends was realistic or not
9)  To get a sense of security for their alter-ego by telling everyone how they started
        this newsgroup, and now run it
8)  To get out of doing their homework
7)  As an alternative to playing baseball with rotten eggs, or hitting themselves over the
        head with a frying pan
6)  To continue their flame war that started on NROS when one guy sent the other guy
        into the fence
5)  To tell everyone the results of a real race, hoping to catch someone unawares that
        has to watch the race tape-delayed
4)  To find out what the latest simulator is, and then start a war by calling it unrealistic.
        This is secondary to their real plans, which is to take over the world by overloading
        the newservers on the internet
3)  They got here by mistake, and thought that "simulators" was "stimulators".  They
        were really looking for "alt.binaries.***a.powered.***.objects"
2)  They're wheel/pedals broke, and the only "fix" they could get was to come on here
        and read all the posts.  This is called "sim-syndrome", and is also marked by
        foaming at the mouth, calling up controller manufacturers and making bomb
        threats, and removing the steering wheel and gas/brake from the family car in
        a doomed attempt to "get on the track"
1)  To find honest useful information about racing simulators (that wasn't really a reason,
        I just thought I'd throw it in there)

Cheers!

Well, maybe it's more to check polls of whether Charles Mak is Geoff
Crammond or not  ;-)

Grrrr.....

Hmm, so your telling that there is some parents around the world who grows
their child by sayin "Ok kid, you can stop your homeworks and get on the
USENET to check out a bunch of crazy sick people who think they really race
in front of a monitor ;-) ".

Well, Charles Mak already did this, and found r.a.s. was better ! Who knows
maybe he is the reincarnation of Joel Putty ;-)

Grrrrr..... another time. You must have a personnal vendetta to me ;-)

Or accussing people on r.a.s. that they are the reason of spoiling his race
because they checked the newsgroup before watching the taped race.

calling it unrealistic.
Hmmm, so you have a vendetta to Charles Mak also ;-)     (but hey I'm the
king of the world, didn't you know that <grin> ).

"stimulators".  They
Tee hee, very funny.   Rec.Auto(s).Stimulators.  I wonder what the charter
would be....

Hmm, any serious SimRacer has AT LEAST 2 set of steering wheel.   <g> who
wants to race with a Keyboard (Hmmm.... Charles Mak ??).

Oh, there is really some people who are searching this ??

0) People who want to know where to find illegal tracks.

 RCAF Air-Ground Operations School      Hmmm..... that is very interesting..
Didn't know that.
