GTAV - General Off Road Discussion | LS 4x4 Crew

[AudiMan2011]

Looks like a good reason to bring out my Sandking XL again.

Ok guys, here's the deal. Enough will all the silly rules! I've added my comments below....

Alright guys, here are the details regarding Sunday's meet.

The must-know stuff:
-Meet at 3pm EST (unless you guys want to do 4pm EST)
-Lifted vehicles only (Merryweather Mesa, Sandking, Rebel, etc.) I'll bring anything I want. Hell, I might bring my Adder.
-Passive mode WILL be required. If you have a bounty on your head, me or @ZDUPH will take care of it. Please, do not retaliate. Doing so will get you kicked from the room, and crew. Passive mode can be overcome by running people's asses over. And if someone gets a bounty, then you better expect competition from me. I need that $$$.
-Absolutely no helicopters. If you insist on flying to the meet, then calling your mechanic, PLEASE land your helicopter away from the meeting point and traffic. And please don't blow it up either...it's not 4th of July. If I show up in a helicopter nobody will do or say a thing.
-Try and stay together. I know, some of us will get seperated if we do a steep trail. But do your best to stay in a pack. If you get stuck, let us know. If you do not have a headset, you can assume the person behind you will give you a push (and that's fine). I'm not waiting around for anybody. Keep up.
-We will be going slow for the most part. Unless it's a steep trail or crossing a river, then some power will be required.
-We will also be stopping for pictures a few times. Behave yourselves. You are encouraged, however not required to, get out, walk around, admire the view, look at everyone elses cars, eat a snack, smoke a cig, drink some beer, take pictures...whatever. As long as it does not involve guns, weapons, fists, or pushing cars (unless someone is stuck). You might go slow, but I don't. Also, I'll be bringing a full aresenel with me. Hell, I'm liable to stock up before joining y'all. If anyone even slightly pisses me off, it'll be WWIII there. I have glitched and unlocked all weapons and Merryweather services and I'll use them whenever, however I choose.

This should be interesting.

This is clearly not the crew for you, then.

EDIT: I have a slight feeling you just ignored all of the rules on the GTPlanet AUP and hit accept. Maybe it's just me, but that's the vibe I'm getting from your first post on this site. Remember, first impressions count here.

Silly rules? These rules were set in place to make sure people wouldn't do what you just stated above, such as bringing a chopper or Adder (who the hell offroads in a Bugatti in real life anyway??).
I can see you lasting a long time in this crew. *sarcasm*

 

[NotIntegrated]

Acting like that, why should he even be accepted to the crew?

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

This is true. Just checked the social club site and I don't see him anywhere in the hierarchy.

 

[Fastcarguy]

How about we just kick him if he joins and does all the stuff he said he would?

Hehe not a bad idea.

 

[uforoboso]

Come on guys, are you even replying? Really? Never met a troll before? He must be laughing at your replies. He was obviously teasing, and with a bit of auto-irony I found it funny. The whole profile is just a joke, I mean: did you even check it?! Arkansas klansman! Of course the guy won't appear, but if you keep replying he could even get tempted to.

I fail to see the humor in this whole ordeal.

"ArkansasKlansman"?
so hardcore
wow

 

[Obama_Lover]

I'm just saying there are some people who need to get their heads outta the clouds.

 

[Terronium-12]

That's funny, I had no idea the English language had a sexual preference.

If you have nothing constructive to add to the conversation, and your brilliance dictates that 'gay' is a suitable descriptor, don't post.

And, no, that's not up for debate. Should you do it again the warning won't be as polite.

 

[Mudd]

Saw that coming. Back to a relative topic, if we are to do a meet with the Rat Loaders, let's include the Dune Loader for some variety. That's my good idea for the day, I'm spent.

 

[uforoboso]

When is the rat loader returning? Is it already known?

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

Nope. The only information we have regarding a date is "sometime in the future".
This pretty much cements the possibility of a patch next Tuesday.

 

[Obama_Lover]

I'm ready to hit some trails. Which vehicle should I take?

• Ford SuperDuty
• Toyota Hilux
• Merryweather Jeep
• Toyota FJ Cruiser
• Mercedes G Wagon
• VW Dune Buggy

 

[BigFluff68x]

Let's just say if the clean rebel comes back, I will be going WWIII on any npc dirty rebel I see, in my Coyote Whisperer.

Why was one of my comments deleted? What did I write wrong? Why didn't any moderator even write me a message? WTF.

From the AUP.

And.

That was aimed at someone else but that applies to you too.

Ok then, thanks a lot. Bye bye guys. Think I'll join the redneck troll, I like to keep using my brains and can't stand to limit my thinking/expression skills at the level of moderators as intelligent as robots.

 

[daan]

I like to keep using my brains

If you really want to evitate trolls, let's just not appear ridiculous by having to set too many rules, which indeed sounds gay for some adults (?) playing a game.

I wasn't aware that rules had a sexual persuasion but thanks for using your "brains" and educating me. 👍

 

[NotIntegrated]

I'm speaking on my behalf only as I'm not any type of leadership in LS4X, but if this is going to cause problems can we just have Obama removed from the thread anything non off-roading/LS4X related removed?

 

[uforoboso]

Listen, English is not my mother tongue, so please forgive me if something is not so well exposed in my phrasing. Still, I can absolutely get what that "gay" meant in the critic/satire posts the troll wrote, and I agreed to that as exposing us as somehow ridiculous. If your policies prevent us to use the word "gay" to describe something as ridiculous, I get it. Personally, I can't stand the hypocrisy of politically correctness. And finally, gay is not an offensive word for anybody, was not used as offensive, was not necessarily used as an homonym of homosexual, finally is not an illegal word.

Actually, if you go search a dictionary, you'll discover that gay is an homonym of silly, which was - not casually, I think - used by the troll to describe what he was criticizing. Both are homonyms with ridiculous and both words are contraries of "serious" which was the (I think) main critic that both me and the troll were doing to some approaches here. So if you can't go so deep and see the levels of meaning that are under the literal appearance of a text, or/and can't recognize the various meanings of a word - that exist in your mother tongue language - you should probably not be a moderator. Moderating needs those skills.

You would have understood that since the beginning of this troll thing, I was just trying to cool down things and evitate the flames, and all my comments were in that direction. Expressing my opinions in a not insulting way was the part of it I don't like to see deleted without a real reason.

This. As a commissioner of the crew I wholeheartedly agree with this. Stay on topic or don't bother posting.

 

[BigFluff68x]

This is ridiculous, if you really have a problem with someone take it off the forums. There is absolutely no need to be arguing over anything other than off road related topics, and even with that being said, keep the arguing to a minimum. Y'all are sounding stupid.
