Guys, I read that it costed 4 dollars to buy Route X. Now, many of you may say "It isn't expensive," but I have to see if my parents would let me get it. If all you guys buy Route X, is no one going to drag at Indy anymore? :nervous::guilty: :(
 
There will be plenty of little kids still racing there

Thanks!👍

I surely loved that comment. I like how you smeared it with sarcasm, then sprinkled the comment with some troll behavior. There was really no need for that comment. I don't race with little kids. Please take your trolling somewhere else, and if you reply to this, then obviously you have no life.
 
SSRX is dominate.

Seriously, it's PERFECT for racing people. You pull out of the pits, line up (can go mad wide too), decide on an end point, done.
 
Well indy rooms and ssr7 rooms will disappear. Although what distance will replace ssr7? Although I'd like to start some standing mile drags too.

I will buy it "secretly" and tell my parents that the PS3 will go all awry if I don't pay that 4 dollars :sly:
 
Alright mods, can you please lock this thread as it was supposed to go somewhere but ended up imploding? Thanks 👍
 
*troll mode:activate- poverty is no laughing matter. Yes the poor people will still be there. It may seem funny to some, but given our current economic situation many people aren't able to afford even the smallest of luxury. A great many people are experiencing financial hardships in todays world. It's not funny when someone is at their wits end and has struggled to maintain for their family and can do no more and the s:censored:t ends up at your door. Where I'm from a mans gonna do what he got to to put food on the table and keep a roof over his head. If that means taking it from someone else then that's what it is. Trust me you wont think its funny when you're at the atm with a gun at your head or when you come home to your house been broke in. Its real serious. You try to put yourself in their shoes and see what its like to have not eaten in days or have no lights or water in your house or even a place to lay your head at night and then let someone tell you lighten up. Not funny.
 
Erm...

While you're right that poverty is no laughing matter when it's actually poverty, I think your example went so far as to disprove that argument.

The people you're referring to are, quite literally, too poor to have any reason to be here. Or, if they do, they very seriously need to reconsider their priorities.

I should also add that my family has been well below "poverty level" for my entire lifetime. We get by, but that's about it. I know what being broke is, I am.

Right on fellow troll *slaps a high five to the kennytroll*

Oh and BTW, we are the king trolls haha
 
And to the mod who doesn't want to be bothered with this nonsense, how is financial prejudice differ from racism or hating gay people. Kids get picked on for being poor all the time as frequently as there are incedents of racism or homophobism. The end result is all the same, someone making a hard time for someone else to have fun. As I said earlier, its all fun and games until it ends up at your front door. When someone is pushed past their limit and snaps, all of the sudden they are the bad guy. No one wants to accept responsibility for their role in pushing that person over the edge but tries to play the victim when they end up in the middle of it all.

I'm bewildered as to how you choose to use your authority. Banning people for even the slightest reference to the word gay even when not used in a hateful or disrespectful context but someone can call people poor as if its not meant to be offensive and you cant be bothered with it.

To tell you guys the truth, I agree with Kenny. Great power should also come with great responsibility. I really don't hope I get banned by saying this comment, but please PLEASE do realize what you guys are writing. I had a valid point that people will get insulted about the poor people remark. As a moderator, you are saying that I shouldn't waste your time with this comment? Please, there are hundreds of people making comments in different forums on GTPlanet, and you guys just pick up on one of them and say to not waste your time? Sound's a bit weird to me. It is no laughing matter to make fun of poor people, as I know many people personally who don't even have their own home and have to live in other's home. If you guys actually know someone who is in this situation, then you will understand.
 
@rotary- poor/poverty/broke, none are funny. I gave an extreme example yes, but nevertheless, the point remains the same. Just because someone can't afford to pay $4 for dlc doesn't give anyone the right to go around making light of their situation. They may be able to pay their bills and maintain but might not have an extra 4 or 5 dollars to spend on a game.

And just because someone is poorer than us and may not have a computer or internet or a ps3, and aren't a part of this forum, that makes it even worse that people talk about them. If you are white and in a room with 4 other white guys, does it make it ok to drop the n bomb?
