Things in drag rooms that irritate me

jryeargin
When the guy ghosting says 3,2,1 GO on the mic, then he wouldnt ghost at all. It seems like lately that every room I go into its complete chaos. The host is gone, no one can line up with bumping someone. Then thats turns into ramming, its getting worse. I went through fours rooms before I found a decent one last night.

Yeah I hear ya. There needs to be someone that hosts an open drag lobby following the things set forth in this thread, that way non-GTP users looking for legit drag rooms could also join, and we being the like minded players would set a record for quickest kick in the ass for any trolls that try to join.
 
^ About you're signature,that happened to me with the Spoon S2000,I made a trade and on the next 2 days it showed up in the ucd and 3weeks later there it was again on the last ocd with zero miles.

But back on topic, you have to look at the room description I learned not to go into the ones that say 'no bs' or clean drag or bs kick cause it really doesn't happen i look for the names of the players and if I recognize them from here then I join if not I make my own and kick whoever doesn't comply.
 
I know it doesnt happen alot. but what is the problem if im getting in a frag racing room only to watch?
i mean. it help me and i learn from it..(i do not go online often its just somthing that help me)
 
I guess they think you are taking up a space of someone that could be racing, if not they are just dirtbags.

I agree to also go into the no bs rooms, but sometimes after the original host leaves a complete idiot is in control and it just goes south from there. I know to avoid this I should start my own room, I just dont like waiting for people to come.
 
^^ Yup, sometimes that happens to and I end up leaving my own room cause nobody joins, usually I call guys from work but if they're not playing in on my own.
 
I normally join a room of it is hosted by a familiar name. If I have no idea who they are I might go in and see what's happening using watch race, of they're organised I stay; if they're all f:censored:ing around I leave straight away

And people wonder why I kick everyone before I leave. I'm the only one that uses the name I use, I don't want my rooms turning into garbage and not attracting anyone.

With situations like this time starting is okay. I remember one time i joint a room you hosted and Dr Slump was in it and we couldnt get a proper tree going. (was months ago now)

I admire your perseverance with international connection.

This is intensely annoying. I'll do a pinks drag at Indy and when I smash them they run into end wall and claim a win.. Or I will stop at the end of top gear straight and I'll get raged at, and people will say I max out and so I stop.

That's another thing... people who smash the wall at TGTT instead of braking.

yeah i only join aus nz rooms when i see a familiar name hosting but lately the rooms have been abit boring.
 
How do you determine who wins at TGTT if one dude passes you and smashes the wall while you brake

You know how that conversation goes. They claim that they win if you brake before the finish, and they pass you.
 
Had a guy last night that only wanted to run his car in ghost,i not only a trying to beat the guy next to me but also the one that pulls up inside my car.
 
The guy who is ghosting and then proceeds to race in reverse after you start going. Kicked a guy for this last night when he decided his gtr was faster in reverse than my beetle and crashed me while I was making my run.
 
^^^Surprisingly that has never happened to me. I have had however severe ghost lag where they ghost and then they go back to normal and it's so delayed you hit them when you take off.
 
Getting hate mail after kicking someone lol. Also when you leave to kick someone and everyone else starts being idiots. From now on I'm going to just kick anyone whose name I don't know. My apologies in advance. But I didn't make my own room to have to 🤬 babysit. If I have to spend more time in the lobby kicking people than I do on the track it pisses me off.:mad: *shaking fist

I always make my rooms have maximum of 1035hp and minimum of 910kg. If someone whose been alright brings out a race car, I'll politely ask them to change, but otherwise I see, I kick.

If I join a room and see anyone in anything like Veyrons, LMP cars, X1, FGTs I instantly leave so that issue doesnt really phase me, but I can understand the frustration.. Its boring to win using a fast car against slow ones.. I'm always using slow cars and trying to beat fast ones :P

Imo drags should be tuners and classic muscle. You are not gonna see veyrons, enzos, vipers and fgts at your average strip. I run my 69' chevelle and my 06' evo IX at Maple Grove and Cecil County all the time, Saw a semi stock gts and older dudes in late model vettes, but its mostly sport compacts and detroit iron.

I had to do that today. The host left (cracked under pressure:scared:) I took over, dropped the banhammer on some tank cars and x1s. Then I had the drag races organized with me ghosting:D I left the room a few minutes ago. I try not to think about the pure chaos probably happening in that room right now:scared:.

Someone accidentally un-ghosted (?), and the ghost re-materialized partially inside both our cars. I was laughing too hard to be mad, and it was a more casual room. We got launched.:lol:

Another day of racing and another day of mixed feelings,hosts that have no control of the room,guys that think there all that.I respect the fact that your good but when i beat you in the same car and you go tweak it and come back and i beat you again at least give me a little credit,if you beat me by a car i say good race,sorry to vent but i gotta tell somebody.
