Wait, you mean members of your team or members of 'enemy' teams?

In my case, Americans (USA and Brazil), AWD drifters, X1s, GTRs, LFAs, NSXs, pink Lambos and Ferraris, Mic users, Veyrons, any tyre above SH, any aid including ABS, all of those = instant kick, I can't stand people like this so I basically avoid playing online alltogether.

Because mics cause lag, people are generally annoying, some people boost their microphone to obnoxiously loud levels*, and other people are WAY too quiet to hear.
*If you know what Youtube Poops are, and if you've seen a lot, the video makers sometimes blast the audio for comedic effect or to startle the viewer. When I used to have my mic, I would have it in my ear, minding my own business and have a good lap. All of a sudden, "OOOOOOOGHGGGFLEMDFMSLS!!!!!" pounding into my left ear drum, causing me to crash.

MadertusFrom what I'm seeing online (not only in GT5) I assume that most of us gamers haven't even seen a woman in real life.
Anyway, my recent situation - I was talking (on a mic) with two (later three) nice guys who turned out to love cars about as much as I do. "A wild French dude appears" - said the sudden message.
An all of a sudden, he pulls out his mic and starts swearing at me (only at me). As he said, I'm no idea what a true car is, colors on my cars suck, I can't drive at all (slightly agreed on the last one though) I'm no idea what was the cause, I didn't even talk to him or drove close to his riced rides, of which most were GT-Rs, Veyrons, Enzos and such (talk about car knowledge and good taste)... Luckily my silver tongue kicked in and sent him back to his cage (host-kicked after a rain of 'Ohhhhh!'s from my new colleagues). Maybe it's because I'm Polish that he wanted to kill me with his flower-y insults?
Seriously, I am absolutely no idea why did he attack me, and why so violently...
I'm sure I've run into him before.

So, me in my Beetle with SM tyres with ABS= 1 means kick? Why...?
So basically you don't like people having the freedom of choice?

He's talking about drifting rooms. Which pretty much no one can follow a CH drifter on SH tires.
Most of the cars he listed are pointless to try to drift anyway. Only aid that should be used, is ABS, even though ABS is basically stability control.
The "Mic users", yeah sure there might be lag, but 90% of the time, if the room is set up correctly this isn't a issue.

The entire drag community, just horrible with the GIANT egos of everyone, not only that but the hackers, cheaters, and liars, can't stand it.

Yup. Public drag rooms are nasty without any drivetrain/power restrictions.

This made me laugh, was in a room and these guys from the were talking about their how amazing their Citroen Saxo and VX Corsa were, with spoilers and body kits. All I could think of is pictures like ones bellow
( Not their actual cars, just a representation. The car on the bottom has an extra 100 hp because of the stickers.)
The room was fun room, they had me in fits of laughter. What me me laugh the most was ,that both their cars were probably slower then the sock models. Some people online do like to talk a load of 🤬.

After taking my GT3-spec SLS for a drive in a few rooms, I can safely conclude that approximately 0% of Red Bull drivers I encountered have any concept of avoiding a slower car in front of them...

Recently, I joined a random lobby that was on the nurburgring. I ended up racing against 2 drivers (when I mean race, I mean getting left behind because I can't tune a car to save my life) and after I finish. The host randomly wants to add me as a friend.
It's not a bad moment, but just a wtf moment. I never met this guy before until then and he friend requests me. That's kinda silly tbh.

Haha good story mate. I wish the Saxo was in GT5. There's always GT6.
Anyway I managed to not only beat a S.Vettel X2010 with my 5G around the 'Ring, but I outran him as well. He was such a crap driver.

You don't win bonus points for not taking sarcastic action so you get a pass 👍

I was tempted to tell them that their Fart Cannons and Air filters make their cars slower, and rear spoilers on a FF will do nothing but add more
weight to the car.
Sorry had to be done.
On another note, was just in a room cruising when some guy kept ramming everyone with tank car (not the host). When people complained they were kicked instead.

Some guy on Grid 2 was intent on getting me disqualified from a touge race, by tricking the computer into thinking I'd rammed him. First, he makes me hit the wall, nearly giving him enough time to outrun me and win the race. Unfortunately, he's rather quite slow so I catch up to him within seconds. Upon overtaking him, he rams me into the wall again and gets disqualified himself.
