Idiocraty Rules

Hi,

I just experienced something quite funny. For some days I've been playing on a friend's game and had the opportunity to try the basics of GT5:Prologue. I tought the game looked nice so I was gonna buy it just for the drifting side of it as I'm not all that great of a racer.

Tonight I pop on the GT Drift Channel which was pointed to me as the place for all GT drift meetings and all. I go there, and start chatting with a few pals. Someone talk about Forza Motorsport and I feel like telling my opinion about it. I talk about the goods and bad of Forza and GT. Then that guy, which I wont tell the name, start bashing at me, saying that because I like Forza, I'm a crap and I dont deserve to play Gran Turismo. He bans, kick and does everything possible to me on the drift chat.

Quite a warm welcome to the drifting community. I was getting the hang of drifting on Gran Turismo but after seing how immature some peoples of that community were, I am really tempted to do a 180 and get into racing, if not just dont buy the game. I'm asthonised some peoples can be so harsh at others just because they have the admin power and because you are a newcomer to something.

Anyway, what I want to know is: Did I just met the only nublet on GT5:P or everyone is this way? This is scarying. :nervous:
 
Yo not everybody is like that in the chat room. this is the 1st case i ever heard of this.I know what you talking about, you just met a die hard fan of gt5 so you made him upset.You finally got the game for good?
 
wow sorry to hear that you were treated that way as i am an active member of that drift chat and dont appreciate the younger kids actions there much. So once again sorry for the imature actions of the younger KIDS in the chat dont let there actions speak for the rest of us.

EDIT:
This isnt really a gtplanet matter but since you posted this i looked into it.

you got delt what you deserved. Disrespecting others in a chat on your "first" time there is not a smart thing to do. Its your mouth that got you a ban.

It was not yer ideals that got you banned...but rather the attitude you had in the room...This is just a misunderstanding...You can't just go into a chat room the very first time acting like hot **** telling people to shut up etc.

Well i came in the drift chat a little too late to witness but all i can say is that you must've done something for them to ban you or kick you out, they wouldn't just do that for no reason, I'm sure of that.

Done deal. This happened couple times before, not the drift chat, but on track and someone actually makes an account and tries to frame someone for something that never took place. Oh well. :dunce:
 
i dont even see why that happened, is he into games that much and he lives off gran turismo? to whoever that was, its just a game, forza is also a game, they both have pros and cons, what gt does badly might be really good in forza. its like saying i will only eat red apples and i despise green ones.
 
mu51, it's not "just a game" to some people. Gran Turismo and Forza both are considered Serious Business by their respective fans.

rider's motion, you practically started a flame war for even mentioning Forza. most people said exactly what I would have said, you do NOT mention forza to GTers, and vice versa. when you start out anywhere on the net, start very slowly and get the feel of a fandom, no matter what kind, before getting really involved. be more carefull next time, because a thing like that can get you insta-banned nowadays.

Like gator said, yu must have said something in the chat room that was offensive to any of the "owners". I have been in that chat room since the beginning, around June or July, and I have never had that many problems or at least not so severe. Just go back to the chat room and start of slow there. If you go and start calling people out and start being offensive, you can be sure the mods and owners will kick you out. BTW, when did this happen?? I don't recall this happening, I probably wasn't there because the last time I was there was Saturday.
 
Yea, I actually did something wrong I think. I told a owner of the chat to shut up when I was trying to have a discussion with someone else. I know that is not correct but man, is that even a reason to bash on me like I was the biggest **** on Earth? :ouch:

Dking is my hero

Aight, but dont tell him you're from Canada. Otherwise... :dunce:

Links removed due to swearing in the pictures. Do not do that again

This is not really an insult at me, but just shows how mature the owner of this Channel really is...

Well ive known dking for QUITE A while now and I talked / drifted with him a lot of times.

He knows i'm from canada and he never said anything wrong with that.
In fact I think he's one of the greatest guy in the drifting community, he's always helpful and a really nice guy.

So I don't know what your'e talking about

btw i'd recommend dropping the pictures cauz my bet is this is gonna turn in an endless talk**** fest
 
I guess emotions run wild again on the internets....anonymosity is such a pleasant thing isn't it? Its like some kind of drug. Heh. Its much like a school playground.

Well he has proof that his talking about Canada at the moment he took the pictures. dk is a ok guy, but he has proof of what he did, which to me is hilarious.
 
lol Im missing the laughs at the chat?


There was talk of MCLA and GTA once on the chat, didnt bother anyone (I wonder why :lol:) Forza is a different matter :crazy:

Yo for you to get dking to talk to you like that and making fun of you that badly, you must have been disrespectful. And if you wanted to have a private conversation with somebody, you could of have just simply press that person's name and press on private chat. That will get you to talk to whoever privately.

HAHAHAHA btw those pictures are hilarious, Goracle has to see them since they mention him lol!! hahaha

Yo, we are always playing around and ppl making fun of others, it happen all the time. You should see the jokes me, unleashed and Asy pull on each other.lol Making fun of ppl will not get yu kicked from the chat room, you'll get kicked when pass the limits and start being disrespectful, just remember that...

LOL yea but what has been said about him is so true hahahah
 
I was there. You were being rude and very disrespectful, especially since it was your first time. You don't want to turn into a Martin or Sony_Gamer.
 
What happened was because of your own fault. Where are the pictures showing your disrespect towards RL? Big deal he was poking fun at you, its a common thing in the chat. Your actions are what got you where you are. If you were respectful towards RL and others then the outcome would be different.

Ummm... if GT'ers can't handle people bringing up Forza.....then I think they have issues.





and as for that chat..........
 
you do NOT mention forza to GTers, and vice versa.

Err I think we have a Forza section here on :gtplanet: a largely GT based forum and a forum is a very pointless place if differing opinions and rivals cannot be compared. You mention Forza to GTers and vice versa, if they can't comprehend a differing opinion you leave the subject be and don't get involved in a pointless war which results in personal comments and no more, this applies to both parties of an argument.
 
i need to check out the drift-chat. forget mtv and it's reality t.v. DAMA in the drift chat...J/k i'm totally ANti-Drama, but i have been meaning to check it out. Never drifted online. :)👍
