Worse I've dealt with……well it wasn't the worse, but it's still bad, I was racing on the Nurburgring GP/F and this idiot in a Ferrari F430 Scud in front was just running everyone off the track, regardless of where they were! I was beside him and he 'understeered' into me, throwing me off into the sand! Glad he (as in the guy in the Scud) got the boot in the end :D

Edit: @JaiAE86, I've seen your room! On multiple occasions I wanted to join, but my GT5 would always lag…:(

Gotta say those people that join a racing series room and jump on track before the race starts with either a road car or FGT/X2010 are a real nuisance....especially when they show up unnoticed and proceed to ram everyone :grumpy:

Even when you put don't join in the title the randoms still start pouring in
 
I usually frequent The Insane Asylum and we decided to run Grand Valley Reverse in Rally Cars. It was clearly typed and said over the comms. All us regulars checked out in our favourite rally thoroughbreds when a couple of newbies entered, so the rally cars requirement was re-iterated.

First out of the blocks was a Minolta :dunce: then an FG, followed by something else equally far removed from rallying.

After several more people brought out even more silly cars enough was enough, and the call was made: "you have 5 seconds to come out of that car and into a RALLY CAR before you get kicked,,,5,,,,,4,,,,3,,,2,,1, REEEEJECTED!!!"

6 or so players kicked later the race finally got under way.

Also rather annoying when there's definitely 8 of you in the room, yet when you get to the race you can only see 1 other racer. Although he can see everyone, so is really good fun when you watch him getting booted across the track by a completely invisible force!
 
Well they kicked me because they thought I was hitting people. I wasn't even close to anyone and stupid freaking lag hit them.
 
I was kicked once because they thought i was cussing up a storm.:dunce: I hate it when someguy comes in and mutes everyone and says you have to type it in.:grumpy:
 
Worst I've had was when I was running in a Ford GT, Viper, Vette room on Daytona, and on the last lap I had a run coming up on the guy in first place just on his outside when he decided to try to block me into the wall just as we came into the tri-oval, so I cut down and went down a little too hard which caused me to hit the grass and go below the yellow line pass him and win. He freaked on me for like 5 races after till he tried to pit me and he flew into the wall and rage quits. :lol:
 
Was doing a race today on the TG track, I think there were only 4 of us and 1 guy kept cutting Chicargo and the Hammerhead. Then he had the balls to mock us because he won. What a first online experience that was.
 
Today I joined a dirty racing game to blow off some steam from an endurance I was in where the 🤬 in second rammed me on the Porsche curves at Le Mans and forced me to get 5th out of 11th. I got kicked from the Le Mans room because the guy who rammed me said I rammed him (dumb @$$ kids these days...). So I go to the dirty racing room and they start the race. BIG MESS on turn 1, but I was the only one not in it :). After the race ended I won by 12 seconds. The host's gay friend with a mic (another dumb @$$ kid) says that I cheated. I simply tell him that he sucks at racing because I was clean the whole race and didn't wreck once (which actually takes skill since boost is usually on high and they catch up quickly). He then proceeds to call me a pile of bull 🤬 and tells his friend to kick me. This is EXACTLY why this game should be rated T and GameStop needs to put a law that says 12 and under CANNOT PLAY. RRRRAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHH
 
I was in a drift room once and someone got the ol' X2010 out and proceeded to drive into everyone on the track.
I asked him politely to take it away. I don't know how it came about but, he thought I was black. I said I was just too see what he said. I received a message on my PS3 calling me a N:censored:R.
Needless to say, I was outraged. I should have reported that guy.
 
Hey Rcr, Rember earilier in "VERY DIRTY RACING" i was driving b:censored: ackwards and they kicked me.:grumpy:they call dirty for a REASON.:dunce:
 
^Lol, driving backwards is frowned upon everywhere because you're not trying to win. It's very dirty racing, not very dirty driving.

That room sucked for dirty racing anyways, they kept switching it back to Daytona and never voted, and also every time I won they changed PP to something I don't want. And I also deleted Dragfan because his voice through the mic pissed me off.

Yeah most dirty rooms are filled with people who say n:censored:r.But Dragfan was annoying thats why i went all out a:censored:hole backwards on him. :lol:
 
EVERY SINGLE time I've raced online I've experienced bizzarre behaviour by someone or other. (Even in shuffle races) I just don't get how some people behave on the internet. I don't even want to play online any more & that sucks, 'cos I'd prefer to race against people rather than AI.
 
I only do shuffle or drift online now. Regular PP races are extremely unfair.

If I pass someone, it never fails that they try to clip my bumper and spin me out, or go full speed into the corner taking the inside of me and slamming me into a wall. I wish these idiots would try that in real life.
 
A couple of days ago I was in one of those UK Road Laws Rooms and I was minding my own business when somebody asked how to get the Jaguar XFR '10. So, I got out my XFR and headed over to them to tell them how to get it. When I was done, this other person (cs_santtu) started ramming me. I told him to quit it. He called me a noob. I told him that I was level 37, had 650 cars, and had a life. Then he said that he had over 800 cars and told me to STFU. Then he said "Dooglers is a scammer. he scammed me." He must have been mistaken, because I've never met this kid before. I told him, no, I don't scam and to stop harassing me. Then he claimed that I scammed him out of his Enzo a few months ago. Then, I took a few minutes to look at records of previous records and found that I recieved an Enzo from a and I sent the person a Plymouth Hemi Cuda. Basically it's Person A calls me, Person B, a scammer, but Person C sent Person B a car, Not Person A, therefore, Person A does not have his facts right and is mistaken. So I told the kid that a few months ago, I sent a Plymouth Hemi Cuda to HunterDavid, who sent me the Enzo other his other account, Soup-O-Bowl. Then the kid calls me a scammer again.

By this time, two people in the room sent me friend requests. One was the host, who kicked the kid. Somehow, the kid kept getting back in there, and every single time, like a parrot, he'd spew out the same crap : "Dooglers is a scammer."
So, is cs_santtu joins your room, insult him and have him kicked.
 
Well..

I don't know if some of you have noticed, but I usually host a lounge called "Cruising & Driving" on the Top Gear Test Track. If you've been there you may have noticed two light blue Lamborghini's of which belong to me and a friend. Some people rain on our specialty but this guy was a joke..

We were just parking in the corner of the track, where we usually do. And a user came along and parked in front of us, and proceeded to say "Stupid". He then tried to ram into us so we both paused, he went through the invisible cars and hit the wall and said "Can't you damage them or something" I told him to leave, then he replied "I didn't know the Queen played GT5"

I'm not sure what his intention was. He really didn't like us parking and said we were showing off, sometimes we grab the wrong attention it seems... :boggled:

Here it is in the real world..

Had a few more problems yesterday, someone called me a racist name of which is sadly used to refer to black people. I'm not sure why but someone had a problem with the fact I always park in one spot, oh and always drive my favourite car. That made him think I was black and he started to call me names. To be honest, I knew a lot of the people in the lounge and they started to call him, ending in one big fight. Eventually I just kicked everyone and continued to cruise in my Al Thani Lamborghini SV. Waiting for the lovers, and the haters, interesting days.....
 
another bad nurburgring room.. 513pp street, first few runs were good. then it filled up. me in my fairlady, added ballast & removed downforce for more HP, clearly faster than the rest so I chill in the back until the first uphill straight when I try to pass the MUCH slower Charger he pushes me onto the grass, manage to hold on creep up beside him & get rammed.. come on you can see I'm faster just give it up. tune your ****ing car better.

Easily remedied with late braking into schwedenkreuz to put him into the grass. A little chat about doing onto others as you would like done to you should clear things up.
 
My worst experiences are probably the same as everyone else's; getting kicked for no reason, being told that I can't drive, getting taken out by noobs. All alongside the casual racism and homophobia that goes on... :/

The best revenge I got was on one guy who was causing all sorts of havoc. So the next race I stick with him, and I wait until we're both in the turn at Daytona and he's on the outside of me. Then I just let go of the analog stick. The car straightens up and I proceed to head straight for the wall and in the process take this guy with me.

Total wipeout :D

He wasn't a happy bunny :lol: He left before he was kicked.
 
I had a brilliant bad race the other night.

Le Mans 2005 track, shuffle race, Strong Boost. One fella who for some strange reason didn't have a nationality flag, had been an absolute *censored* for many races so everyone in the lobby made it our mission to cause him grief.

A game of GT5 tag ensued.

We all communicated and manoueivered into positions on the straight and in corners to knock him off.

It was bad, as he had cut corners and bashed us all for races on end (lobby was 'race for real') but absolutely hilarious fun knocking him off, waiting for him to catch up and trying again. The jubilation when we span him was great, and it was a fantastic race!

I was actually going to wait until aremberg, favorite place to brake late, but it looked as if he was going to let me by but instead reamed me when I got next to him.
 
i hate racing that track with anyone i don't know. Its fun to tail drivers and force them into mistakes...but when they start running very slow it gets boring...and there are only a few straights where you can pass clean (because I don't dare make an outside pass on someone who is driving erratically).

In a random grid of 12-16, you'll lose 2 on the first turn. Another 2 on the first right. 3 before the uphill straight. 2 at schwedenkreuz. 1 at the bottom of the hill. Then you'll have between 2 and 5 drivers left on the track in contention...but they are usually spread out. If you are at all battling for position you'll never catch someone in front of you because the guy behind will be constantly applying pressure on every turn rather than helping you catch the leader. If there are more than 4 cars together by the ending straight its a good race...but at least one will crash before the finish.

So that's why i don't race Nurburgring. I'll post hot lap videos and run it on my own...but it's simply not wide enough for the average racer. I also hate pulling away by 10+ seconds from a pack of cars just to have them all draft past you and cause a pileup at the end of the straight.
