I found FM.net to be a pretty buggy site. Lots of errors and or traffic etc. Not to mention it's censored. If your they're to talk about the title update or your online problem, your never going to get a post in anyway.
Not sure why anyone needs FM.net anyway. It's too big and kind of lame. They don't mind traffic or rubbish posted as long as your down with Forza. So it's clogged with repeat posts and garbage. No one really helps anyone out with good questions if you can even manage to post one. They make it your job to dig through the forums for answers. If you want to take issue with the games problems and ask real questions, they just pull your post and ignore it. I tried real hard to meet some tuners their etc., but it's pretty wacked. Mostly just a bunch of Clubbies or LB lappers and Turn10 keeps tight wraps on the content your allowed to post so as not to undermine the franchise. You notice they don't even have a forum for tuning questions? meh
Perfect example is the current KOTT Montoya thread. I keep up on it, but all it is is people saying they beat his time or their asking the same questions about dirty/clean laps over and over again. It goes nowhere. People just pop in and post without reading the threads assuming someone will come in and answer their question, which one guy does. It's like reading the same post's over and over.
