Seriously? You took your break, I took mine, and this is what you come back with? someone else began proposing yet more changes nobody needs, and you took his proposal one step further, providing magical hoopla for yourself and others in a miniscule class of GT players. When I posted a mild objection you began demanding to know the reasons for my impertinence. So I broke it down for you, point by point. I pointed out the needlessly elitist class nature of the entire proposal along with a couple of glaring self-aggrandizing exemptions and exceptions you made for yourself and you became mildly unstable. When you got shrill and incomprehensible, we both knew it was time to go to separate corners. Someone apparently doesn't know what a "time out" is for.
Do not condescend to me or anyone else that plays this game. You're not qualified. I do not need the pretty baubles for a 3rd place effort, I'll earn them the old-fashioned way, the way I've earned every credit, ranking, and bauble in this game. Seasonals are not GT Academy, and "we at the bottom" do not live to look up to and adore you. That you're actually able to go back through all the idiotic BS of the morning and still come back with "Accolades! Nothing more. No more money, no more paint chips, no more nothing. Just accolades, along with the ability to compete with more "sim" settings" shows the true nature of your ego trip. I started out this conversation liking and respecting you, JohnnyP. That I disagreed with your idea was not going to change that. How you handled that disagreement, however, is a totally different story. Before I feel really petty and start pointing out the obvious parts of my responses you completely failed to address in regards to your own "place in history", I'll end with the note that I ended our morning chat on a note of regret and friendship. It's up to you now. Cheers.
