Answer a question please??

[Talentless]

I try to make a series that is somewhat realistic and original and if you actually read it, not really as complicated as it may first appear, and I am all but fully ignored. It's not just that noone is interested in racing, it's that I barely get any responses. Could someone at least criticize my challenges? What really hurts is that the Spot Race, Long and Short series, Team and Official Competition Forum were my idea, ask Jordan. So a comment seems a small thing to ask.

I apologize for complaining, but I feel very disrespected and had to get this off my chest.

We appreciate what you're doing, Talentless, Really.
But it takes time to ask all the teammates if they will join the teamcomp.
And it's rather busy at the moment with the GTDSeason over at GTD.

 

[Talentless]

Yes, but you guys might be doing several series, so I can't know your limit. I have also said questions can be asked.

You can ask if you can send in times early, have a driver pinch hit for you, if I will delay the series or a round of it.

 

[Talentless]

And I have done series after series, Holland. Many were extreme, but not all.

Well, i've been here for almost 6 months now, and i found out that there aren't many racers among the members.
And most of them participate in 1 or 2 challenges. But i don't know why many of your challenges stay unanswered

 

[Talentless]

I no reasons, but I won't say them.

Nothing personal i hope?

 

[hirace45]

I think I might know how you feel about nobody joining your series. But, anyway. I think you're doing a great job of moderating these forums. I know I couldn't do any better. LOL. And if it makes you feel any better I would join your series if I had GT3.

 

[Talentless]

You know I have a gt2 series up, right?

No, not personal. It may be part of it. But I am mostly talking about all series in general.

 

[Talentless]

As for moderating, frankly, I think I need to be stricter, but I am kind of soft.

 

[SaleenASL]

i would say time is the major issue with me.

2nd would be honesty. im seeing more and more people submitting dishonest times. that really ruins a series for me.

i unfortunately had to drop out of a series, half way through, because of dishonest competitors. it really made me feel like i wasted the little time i had, for online racing.

i guess those are the two things that would keep me from entering an OLR, lack of time and dishonesty.

yep thats you talentless mr soft

As for people entering challenges , gt planet has always had a small amount of dedicated racers , since i've been here anyway not through lack of trying top marks on your efforts talentless maybe a bit less of the extreme challenges and some more straight forward car /track combos would attract more interest your last few comp attempts have been a bit elongated 😈 2 races left in torc then i'm up for any reasonable comp you can post to get me back into the swing of smaller board challenges , hopefully i can drag in a few other interested parties also from other boards but lets see a more appealing combo posted 1st before we get signing up 😈

a few possible's that might get noticed =

Sim mode pro difficulty MR races at any of the popular forward courses using stock cars no settings

Arcade pro mode rally race at any dirt track

Hot laps LM stock cars with assistance

maybe a small series over a 4 week period using the same car ie: a vertigo challenge or whatever car out of a posted list is voted to be used we run it over 4 events ?? i dont know ! i'm just posting ideas that i would definately be interested in i have a broader imagination but like i say i'm just showing interest and i'll leave the rest to you talentless

my thoughts are that a lot of drivers wanna participate in these events when they are posted but are very easily put off by either too much time and commitment needed in the comp or faster participants put them off or the most obvious 1 is the bull****ter who comes in with laps that are so exaggerated that many people will just say "yeah whatever cya " but this will always happen and usually the person who posts the fake time will not make the same mistake again as there is a few pro's lurking about who can spot a fake time a mile away 😈 anyway nuff from me lets get some challenges flying in here and stop our man talentless from feeling ignored

i know a few will wanna gimme a thrashing on a few courses 😈 feel free to sign up for talentless next comp/combo and i'll give you a nice mouth full of dust

hope to see the usual suspects get in on this

Zero ( you know i wanna see you in here man 😈 )
Mr Holland ( cant wait to race you outside complex )
Boombexus (not raced you yet i hear your very fast 😈 )
GVX ( a possible but i personally think he's past it )
Lotus (i heard she's a fast ***** !! show me )

chances are 2 or 3 of names i mentioned will sign up but its only because the others will be running scared

i'm done laters guys lets see some replies :thumbsup:

 

[Talentless]

Yeah, I just wished more wanted to do something closer to the real thing.

Talentless,
Your ideas for series are great!
Two reasons I don't race with you is that you want us to post our replays to verify our times, which I think is an awsome idea as it cuts down on cheating. I just don't have the equipment (unless I can take a digital pic and post that.)
Secondly, and most embarrassingly. Your comps tend to draw the superfast, like mrP and Lotus 350, and JBSchumacher, I'm only fast, not super fast, and I *looks at feet sheepishly* don't want to be kicked to the curb all the time. These folks are the cream of the crop. Try as I might I can't get close enough (never within 4 sec) to their times to polish their cars.
Echoing SaleenASL There is a good deal of cheating going on in the "unofficial" realm. But, the majority of the peeps are having fun and posting Honorable times.
I race in the unofficial realm mostly cause I can compete. I rarely win but I don't lose too badly.
Chin up dude, You have great Ideas for comps.
As for moderating, You show up and fix things before they become really nasty. That's all we can ask.

 

[Talentless]

I don't ask for replays. Zero does, but I don't. Not currently.

 

[Talentless]

Gil, racers cannot always race, my series has a broad range when it comes to which positions get points. in the team challenge that goes al the way to 30.

so it is statistically possible to win.

 

[Talentless]

the team series is not an official comp like zero's but just something for teams to do.

 

[Gil]

Cool, I've posted in the team's forum asking them in. We'll see what happens.
I'll try to run regardless.
Even if MrP, Lotus350, and JB, etc. are there to kick me to the curb.

 

[Talentless]

well, if they aren't in a team they can't race for points but only as guests. unless they are or start one/some

 

[Kelly]

At last Talentless! things seem to going good with the teams idea Looking forward to it in fact
