I remember that one very well
The best part is that he finally explained step tuning recently, apparently it's just putting parts on in steps, you know one after the other. Step 1, intake. Step 2. exhaust....
If that is step tuning then it turns out we've all been step tuning all along!

So on top of the other stuff we're supposed to believe a guy who can barely type a sentence in English that English speaking people can understand is also capable of constructing a message in Japanese that Kaz can understand?
I'm amused at the thought of Zuel putting his brand of English into Google Translate and sending whatever nonsense it comes out with to Kaz or Sony.
Those "Thank you" messages would be far from sincere.

Somehow, somewhere, new members should be forced to read this thread first before the are allowed to post on GTP. So that they will know that lying does not work here.
But then again, this thread become useless if that happens.
Forget this post.
Bye.

I work at the Nissan proving grounds in AZ and 90% of the people there don't even know what GT Academy is. Including the guy that deals solely with GT-R's...Well, during my days as a test driver for Nissan, I never met Kaz.

The plot thickens further still. Kaz follows 94 people. You can only private message someone if they follow you, meaning that Zuel would need to be one of the 94. Kaz is only following two Americans. One is the 2012 GT Academy winner, the other is some weird 'Jordan' guy.
Edit: I also like the idea that they'll know who the letter is from and what it's about because it's addressed 'ATTENTION POLYPHONY DIGITAL'. Like there's an enormous mountain of letters that they just haven't opened because they weren't started with ATTENTION.

Allow me to share my @Zuel story.
@polarbear345 my good friend was running his Grand Am Rolex GT5 series which became the USCR for GT6. Zuel claims Polar took his logo he made for the series, and he would be in trouble as.... IMSA contacted Zuel by post to tell him it was in legal infringement. Apart from the sheer tosh of a racing organisation using a letter as opposed to email, IMSA do not have ways to contact people by address. It's a video game logo on a forum. IMSA would have no issue as there logo is not used for profit.
Me and Polar are still waiting to hear on the call from IMSA yet....
Oh and anyone remember the Camber theory thread? Too many good laughs.

This is not true. It would be hard but not impossible for them to get his address.

Yes they would have an issue. Trademarks have to be protected ( or you lose them ). I doesn't matter if it is used for profit or not. They can only be used with permission ( a few exceptions for newspapers and the likes ).
So it is not impossible for that to happen.

They didn't do that though, and I don't think trademark laws apply to fan fiction in this case.
In short to get away with the parody loophole you can't "look" like you are affiliated with the trademark owner, at all. And they didn't do that.

The issue furi is bringing up is when Zuel said I copied him he sent me "the email that they sent him"
Which convienently was full of the same misspellings and grammatical errors that Zuel makes.
Furi just left out the ludicrous part...

Hahaha... Just was able to read everything that was posted since last night. Too funny
I am honestly blown away by the level of stupidity. If he really had the letter in a e-mail that came through his phone, there are so many screen shot applications that he could had downloaded to prove his claims. So by him claiming that he couldn't take a screen shot of it because he was using his phone is just on another level of stupidity.
By @Scaff post, pretty much he has dug a hole past the point of no return.
