Over the past few weeks I keep getting kicked from online lobbies before it even finishes loading.
But I have noticed that it's only the French, Spanish, Japanese etc not UK or US.
I don't mean to offend anyone but I don't get why?
 
Some people like to keep it local mate for better connection :)

Don't be offended, Try to gather a list of Ps pals and focus on racing them.

It's always more exciting when you have history with the other lads on the grid.

Feel free to add me, I promise not to kick you if you join one of my rooms :lol: 👍
 
Some people only like to race with people from their own country. It's very annoying. Especially if they don't put it in the lounge name.
 
Don't worry. It happens to me all the time. Hours a few nights ago, hours I spent going into rooms only to be rejected as soon as I got on track....... :(

Did it mention you got expulsed ? Or just that you got disconnected from the room ? If it's disconnected, then it's your/PD network problem.

Yer, just says I've been kicked. My connection is quite good so i rarely get disconnected.
 
yeh its best to stick to your own country rooms or join friends etc.. admittedly we usually run a all british room. but then we do get guys from usa joining too. i dont like kicking folk. unless they are in x1 of course haha

Yer i don't normally kick people unless they're in an X1 or just not following the rules.
 
I got kicked tonight in an all australian lobby before i had the chance to hit the track. Maybe my GTP tag scared them. Lol
 
I gave up on online racing ages ago i tried 5 times in different rooms on different nights and got kicked every single time i thought the gt community was a nice one !! if anyone is holding online races and would let me race let me know please i would love to try!!

I haven't got it yet because I won't be on till tonight :( so I'll accept later and as we're using the new ones I'll do it as one of each car and I'm having dibs on the Subaru or Evo X :P lol

EDIT: Been looking at some pictures and videos & i'm having dibs on the Evo X :) :P lol

- If anyone else wishes to join I will do a proper lobby Friday at 03:00 PM UK TIME.

The French are the worst for kicking British players, they tend to be dirty drivers too!

Maybe they just don't want to hear somebody speaking in English for fear that their in-group conversations might be broken up or negatively affected? People who hate (or passive) being interpreted by someone unfamiliar tend to alienate him on their arbitrary gauges of intimacy or nationality...

From what i've learned through the use of online services in GT5, the Japanese are also liable to ignore unfamiliar people from another country, who speaks a different language as them rising their anxiety of not being associated with them well.

You maybe also had bad luck as I often see other country players on some french lobbies at night :sly:

And they have never been kicked for not being french ;)

All I can go on is my experience of playing online since gt5 came out, I don't even bother joining French lobbys anymore as I usually get kicked before even getting on the track (even when other people from differant countrys are in there). The French tend to have a chip on their shoulder when it comes to us brits...

Not all of us :sly:

If you see an open lobby from a guy called TC-Touni95 saying "TC clean or out" you can try and maybe change your point of view 👍

I hate getting kicked out, I always send them an angry message. Very angry. Caused me numerous warnings from Sony but it's worth it.

ok mate I will look out for you online, I don't want to sound like I'm anti French or anything its just what I've experienced over the past year, I think removing the flags next to the gamer tag would solve a lot of unfair kicking
 
Unfortunatly I do agree with you for the flag, there's moron everywhere and this has nothing to do with where you come from 👍

I personally don't go often on open lobbies as I have a lot of friends from many different countries to play with online, but sometimes you may find me on Touni's open lobby and I normally play under my main account tag as GT5rs_Wayne ;)
