Can't Anybody Be Happy?

I just got back onto the net after about 4 months away. I used to read R. A. S. on a daily basis and added my 2 cents worth whenever it felt the urge. Now it seems that no one likes anything that is put out. " It's too buggy", " it's not real enough". "They don't do that in real life, so why can they do it on mine?" Doesn't anybody realize that as close or not to the real thing these are still JUST GAMES. You are spending about 50 bucks for entertainment. How many music CD's have you spent 15 bucks on to listen to once or twice and then stuck back on the shelf to never be heard again? How many movies have you bought for 29.99 (remember when they used to be 79.95?) and watched once or twice before going on the shelf to attract dust?What I'm saying is to spend 50 bucks and have something that you'll be playing thousands of times is a pretty good value. There is not a computer product on the market that is bug free. It's a way of life. To sit there and whine and whine and demand patches and this company sucks, that company sucks is really getting old. Whatever happened to people talking about their setups and writing nice posts in here. Remember how Ed Martin used to help us out when we needed it? Where's our help now? Can you possiblly blame other companys for not posting here for fear of the jerks who just want to chew them up and spit them out? I know that most of you reading this even if you've bothered to get this far are thinking who the hell is this jerk spewing off on us. I am nobody. Just like the so many of you that *** and complain about the same old ***over and over. I bought ICR2, GP2, N1, N2 and I love them all. I will download the patches that come out and love them even more. I will play with the utilities that the hacks put out, paint my cars, race online and post messages here. I am a very satisfied customer who loves racing. One thing to remember... Just like in real life, bugs don't have a long life-span. Mike Lewis

Hear, hear!

As President Nicholson said in Mars Attacks "Can't we all just get along". He was then promptly killed. Ken

I am fairly new to this newsgroup and came here originally for help with a few minor problems and have given a little in return. But I must say, I am quickly becoming dismayed by the constant complaining folks are doing. In my opinion (for whatever it is worth), Papyrus is doing their best. I am not a programmer and if it were simple I probably would be. Mistakes happen, but the real difference is that Papyrus seems genuinely interested in making a better product. Perhaps we should all reflect on this and keep the complaining to a minimum. It would make this group much more enjoyable for all and let us get back to the real purpose of the group - people helping people race better. Chasman
