Which car would you take out to the 'Ring?

[Border]

What does being a van driver have to do with it. you disrespecting my profession.
Heres something to take in then.
I left School with 6 O levels and 3 A levels, Worked in finance for 2 years, was made redundant, in the Bust years at the end of the Eightys, Where I took a risk and gambled all My savings getting my first van. I actually quite enjoyed it, Meet lots of Varied and ineresting people from all walks of life, I get to go lots of places, And I get to do what I want to do, Because i am the BOSS.
Yes I am a Van driver (when i feel like it these days), I own my own business with six other van drivers who work for me as well as a PA, I live in a nice house, Paid for! no mortgage in this job, I have 2 cars and a Van, Paid for by my job, I also own my wifes Beauty Salon £200,000 Paid for!
I worked hard for 15 years to get where i am today.
I pretty much get to do what I want when I want.
And if you think someone especially a lowly van driver like myself is being disrespectfull when they question you, you need to grow up.

I will pay you respect for ,your life experience , however i will only take pitty on you as you seem to think its fine for you to " dish the abuse out " - but act like a told off school boy in your manner , because you cannot accept it !!

if your manner with me was more acceptable - you would actully find me to be a very decent person .
as your first post to me was with disrespect - you get nothing but disrespect in return ..!!!!

Firstly - I have never " refused " to submit any lap times !!
I have merely stated that i am not going to trust my property "my memory card " to a complete stranger ( that being you )

Secondly - even emplying that i am cheating isnt good form my friend , you are supposed to live in a world where we are innocent until proven guilty !! - if you are as you say a well respected member of this forum then even emplying that i am cheating when you have no proof isnt as i say " good form "

Thirdly - i may have been hasty when i said that there are cheats in this forum - what i shold of ( and meant to say ) was - its a very real possibilty that cheating could very well bee taking place .

Last but not least - If i claim to have beaten the world recognised times , but have " yet " to provide proof , i would not be " banned " - i would be asked " by the other sites " "NICELY " to provide times to back up my claims .to which i would gladly do .
Further to this as i said earlier - in the short time i have been coming on here ,i have yet to encounter more than a handfull of people who are " NICE " .
Granted you have been trying to help me - but helping in a patronising manner is uncalled for , and unneccesary , i am seriously considering withdrawing from this forum due to the abuse and badd manners of memebers , including yourself .
And i do appreciate i have given my fare share of abuse to memebrs to , however i did not come to this site with the intention of bragging , being cocky or abusive .i came here to try and join in , what should be a fun and enjoyable experience .
Unfortunately due to the comments of youself and other members i have found this not to be the case .

I will take this opportunity to say how dissapointed i am that , what looked on the surface to be a good / interesting / friendly forum , has turned into a harsh unfriendly , rude abusive environment .
I still cannot believe there are so many members willing to throw abuse at the slightest of comments , and pretend to know all there is to know about a subject that actually they know very little about .

In some small way i thank you for your weak efforts to be of some assistance , but it is with regret that i cannot say i have enjoyed the time i have spent in here , due to the likes of your members and yourslef ..

Hasta la vista, baby!!!

That's fair enough. But you were remarkably silent about Data Analyser times or whether your laps conformed to online cleanliness standards. And there was a gilt-edged chance to run the Lancer - in the last 2 and a half hours you've been here - which you've not taken.

I DID explain that, since I have an Xport, I have no need of a further memory card, and I did say that I guaranteed its safe return. There are 32,000 witnesses to this. And you'd have my address - which is only 2 hours away from you by road.

Secondly - even emplying that i am cheating isnt good form my friend , you are supposed to live in a world where we are innocent until proven guilty !! - if you are as you say a well respected member of this forum then even emplying that i am cheating when you have no proof isnt as i say " good form "

I have neither stated nor implied you are a cheater. Any inferences you have drawn from my posts are your problem.

I have never said that I am a "well respected member of this forum" - your phrase, and you've used it twice. I would never say that either. It's up to my peers to judge me, not for me to claim positions of self-importance.

Thirdly - i may have been hasty when i said that there are cheats in this forum - what i shold of ( and meant to say ) was - its a very real possibilty that cheating could very well bee taking place .

Indeed there is a very real possibility. Two drivers have been thrown out of the series in the past 1 and a half years. Shocking, eh?

Still, in your own words, bad form.

Last but not least - If i claim to have beaten the world recognised times , but have " yet " to provide proof , i would not be " banned " - i would be asked " by the other sites " "NICELY " to provide times to back up my claims .to which i would gladly do .

Indeed. However, that isn't what I said.

And I did offer to help you out - not least by giving you a link (still http://www.play.com/) to buy an Xport. Still £14.99. Still allows you to use your entire PC as a memory card.

Granted you have been trying to help me - but helping in a patronising manner is uncalled for , and unneccesary ,

As I said, your inferences are your problem. I was at no point patronising in my efforts to help you. You have some serious issues with people who disagree with you though.

i am seriously considering withdrawing from this forum due to the abuse and badd manners of memebers , including yourself .

Yes. Let's look at how abuse we've all been - especially me. No, wait. That was you:

"i am so tired of having to write a novel to explain myself to you tw@ts,"
"MAYBE YOU DO SUK COX - who know's !!!!!
have a close relationship with DADDY DID YA
TW@T"
"Well - you aint got ya head in his trousers at allhave ya
daddy's boy"
"you should change the name of this site to
KNOW IT ALL SLAG OFF PLANET"
"UNTIL THEN..........what
your gonna blow off ... fam ???"

And i do appreciate i have given my fare share of abuse to memebrs to , however i did not come to this site with the intention of bragging , being cocky or abusive .i came here to try and join in , what should be a fun and enjoyable experience .
Unfortunately due to the comments of youself and other members i have found this not to be the case .

Ah - it's our fault that you started boasting about how good you are? Silly me!

I will take this opportunity to say how dissapointed i am that , what looked on the surface to be a good / interesting / friendly forum , has turned into a harsh unfriendly , rude abusive environment .
I still cannot believe there are so many members willing to throw abuse at the slightest of comments , and pretend to know all there is to know about a subject that actually they know very little about .

Indeed. Given the amount of abuse you've thrown - and this ridiculous standpoint that you have whereby you assume you know more about GT3 than anyone else in here - it's staggering you've lasted this long.

In some small way i thank you for your weak efforts to be of some assistance , but it is with regret that i cannot say i have enjoyed the time i have spent in here , due to the likes of your members and yourslef ..

Other members are nothing to do with me. I am nothing to do with GTP. As the Terms of Service say, all members are responsible for their own postings.

In all seriousness, get help. You seem to believe yourself to be superior in intellect (everyone else knows less about GT3 than you do) and standing (what right does a van driver have to disrespect you) to others, yet have one of the largest inferiority complexes I've ever seen. You hurl abuse at anything which doesn't agree with you, and then accuse it of your own shortcomings.

Get help. Or act your age - two people older than you have told you to grow up in this thread.

Come on Border! You´ve been insulting each and every one who´s not agreed with your posts.

I´ve never insulted you, but you did insult me... you have no right to do that if you consider yourself a decent and friendly guy...

If you took the time to read what you posted in this thread, you will notice that most of your comments are really childish. You sound like a 12 year old kid argueing with his 8 year old brother, rather than the 30 years old man you say you are (you do not have to prove your age, tho).

You feel that anyone who tells you a real fact is a know-it-all. Why? Just because you don´t know something, the one who knows it is a know-it-all. You are just denying the comments you don´t like, even when true and proved. That is childish.

And concerning how fast a GT driver you are, have you really checked this link? : http://db.granturismo.de/gt4p_arcade_cars.php Do you find the top times "not impressive"?

Whats the point - i will only be accussed of cheating !!!!!!!!!!

So you refuse?
