I say keep it here. All RASCAR threads have "RASCAR:" in them so if people don't like it they can search their newsreader's help on how to setup a kill filter. Besides, r.a.s. is the whole point behind RASCAR, not to mention if discussion had been moved to Yahoo several months ago, you would still be racing with about 5 or 6 people every week instead of the 20 - 30 people that now show up including myself.

The point is, other leagues don't use RAS as their discussion group - why should we? The genesis of the league doesn't matter at this point. Also, I'm sure there are others besides Ron Ayton and Schooner who are tired of hearing all the chatter.

I don't wanna wake up to find fifty people disagreeing with Tom Pabst in my inbox. Can't we just migrate to the forum at Racesimcentral?

With Yahoo, when you join a yahoo club or group select no emails.

I just don't understand what the he** is happening with us lately. There's been almost 30 of these races. Why are wes still acting like this is all a mystery as to how it needs to be operated? It's running fine. Add a couple of new rules (forced chat/no racing back to line, which will eliminate a lot of incidents according to Ed's research). Keep the RASCAR discussion inside just a few threads per week. If we really need another forum, racesimcentral.com is already set up for us. To those complaining about too many RASCAR threads, give me a damn break. I used to see thread after thread about GPL races. Even races hosted by Eldred. They didn't bother me even though I wasn't participating. If I really didn't like them, all I had to do was take ten seconds and use the filter option. You can do the same with RASCAR. Would of taken less time to do that than it did to write your complaining posts. Some weeks there's only a thread or two about RASCAR anyway, this week was just a one off. David G Fisher

Didn't know if it got to r.a.s. or not. No questions. Let's just do put the new rules in and stop talking about what's going to happen at some mysterious point in the future. I feel like I'm back in high school and everyone gets all worked up about the smallest things and can't make the simplest decisions. This has been going on for months now. As much as I appreciate Eldred supplying the server, I'm not so sure though that the races should necessarily be run as Eldred "sees fit". I don't even think he is wanting to do things that way either. If I was supplying the server, I wouldn't be making decisions on my own. I paid for a server to start this thing off, and I was willing to run the first race as the group wanted even then. The races should be run as the group wants, but it shouldn't take forever to get a vote on certain issues. We should put an issue forward, take a vote, and then move on. David G Fisher

I also vote to please, please keep it here over both Yahoo and RaceSimCentral. I am just a simple unfrozen caveman, your fancy Yahoo graphics and complicated web based message boards frighten and scare me. Please let me keep my simple newsreader. Brian Oster

Actually, I just don't like Yahoo. Once you're on there, you can't *really* delete your account. I've tried at least half a dozen times in the last six months, and it just doesn't seem to take. Further, they changed my privacy settings without asking me first, and now I'm getting spammed to hell and back. Yahoo and other sites of that ilk are bogus and downright evil. I don't do "free" websites (geoshitties, tripod, etc), I don't do instant messaging (ICQ, AIM, MSNM), and I don't do yahoo. -- ========================================================= Redneck Techno-Biker & "programming deity" http://www.paddedwall.org/john DeMONS/1 for Nascar Racing 3 & Nascar Legends http://www.paddedwall.org/demons DeMONS/2 for Nascar Racing 4 and 2002 Season (in development) http://www.paddedwall.org/demons2 RASCAR Roster http://www.paddedwall.org/rascar Barbarian Diecast Collector (490+ cars and counting) http://www.paddedwall.org/diecast If you want to send me email, go to the first URL shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================

Maybe I need to fire up my news server again, I agree that Yahoo sucks and I'm no big fan of web based message boards either, but if the RASCAR message count goes through the roof, I can see that those not really interested might find it a tad annoying Now where did I put that NT4 Server CD .......

I was wondering whether they might want to achieve that you sort of 'verify' your email address to them from time to time (by going to Yahoo to re-enable it and allowing them to send a 'verification mail'), so they can sell it for more money.

I may have to do that, will it run under NT4 or Win2k or do I need a Linux box :-) Beers and cheers (uncle) Goy http://www.theuspits.com "A man is only as old as the woman he feels........" --Groucho Marx--
