Drag Racing Blacklist Thread - Report those Obnoxious Idiots Here!

[DLR]

This is a list compiled by you listing all the people you have run across in drag rooms that are A-Holes, Jerks and all around Idiots. When posting please give a detailed reason why they should be added to the blacklist other than "He's an Idiot" or "I don't like him". I believe I, and a few others will agree with me on the first person on our list...

[REMOVED]

I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure calling out people negatively and using names is frowned upon.

 

[Onboy123]

forgot one already, the late 'legitskilz' for just being an insufferable arse since the dawn of time. <---did not want to break the AUP in any way, if it does violate it, please remove ASAP.

... for a reason. This is a heads up for people so they don't get screwed over like I and I'm sure many other people did.

I mean I'm just saying what has happened in the past. How are you getting "screwed over" if you aren't supposed to be getting anything anyway? I'm not trying to cause a disruption, at any rate.

I understand your concern. I am not addressing these users out of malice, but rather as a warning to others. When I enter an online lobby under the name "Drag Racing" or "Drifting" I expect nothing else. When other users are obviously acting up and making life harder for others including me I don't want this to happens to anyone else. This thread is for that purpose only. If this goes against the AUP, then I will not argue to take it down. Just want to make the online experience for others as good as possible.

Cam is right. Our policy is strictly against public tarring and feathering, for the simple reason we (obviously) can't police what goes on in-game and through PSN, which means naming people here becomes a "he said this / he said that" situation. Especially if the members named aren't GTP members. You see how this could be a problem, right?

I see what your saying. Validating all the people that go on this list can be a bit difficult. But I know, trust and respect many people on this forum including Onboy and take his word for it. If a new user who just signed up reports someone I will be quite skeptical. But hey, your the Supermod, do what you think is right


Edit: Also we have something similar to this in the "Drag Tunes" thread but I just wanted to put this all in one place.

Exactly, it was explained on PSN beforehand when we were in one of the open lobbies. We can't do this stuff on here because the staff won't allow it. I know it's annoying that we can't do this but it follows in the same lines as the scam traders, yes they cause us grief but we can't publicly out them on here. Hence why I have an unofficial drag list written down for most of the pro tuners and let them know who's been naughty and nice while they are in the rooms with me. 👍 If you know people that back out of deals for pink slip races, or make direct threats to your account due to you beating them in drag racing, then let your mates know and the more popular tuners know, word of mouth does spread very quickly around PSN and they wind up being on the list pretty quickly. 👍

If you were talking about me, then it's Onboy, not oneboy

So Mafs, am I naughty or am I nice?

That's probably what I'll start doing... if this thread dies

I can't read

Sorry about that, fixed 👍

As pointed out - we're not okay with publicly calling out trade "scammers" without a huge helping of solid proof (and even then, we prefer it to be back-channel, not in public name-and-shame threads), so we wouldn't be okay with this either.

As a regular online racer, I understand your concern, and I see your point of view - but do understand why we have to have this position. I'll close this, since it's only purpose is to name the users...
