		<description>When I first started racing online properly in GPL in 2002, first thing I did was read articles about how to behave. Like don&#039;t ride the car in fronts tail due to network latency. Still abide by that.

Everything else is common sense. Like Massa yesterday being warned by the FIA twice for cutting the swimming pool chicane. 

NR2003 incidents checking was good, but I found myself getting really unlucky as there was no way it could determine if it was your fault, so in the early days mine was fairly terrible. I doubt RF2 will introduce anything like that, but if any system was deployed it needs to be weighted to not punish unlucky newbies who get caught up in other peoples stupidity.

I need to find more leagues to races in.

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-20328&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;N0body Of The Goat&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: Personally, I’m getting really miffed by poor race ettiquette online recently…
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Everything you mention, the main league I race in punishes you for. Generally you lose finishing positions, and I have seen someone DQ&#039;ed before. 

Also the RF league I used to race used to have a couple of marshalls watching certain corners and issuing warnings and penalties live during the race. Of course the irony was they did NOTHING about people driving like idiots. Only cutting corners. (Quit the league due to an idiot professional driver, yes, an actual pro, nailing me out of a race on the first lap by using me to brake).</description>

		<description>hehe, Jessica said &#039;butt&#039;.
On a more serious note, this is the first one of these that I&#039;ve actually watched the whole way through. Their review of the racing rig was really informative - just how reviews for that sort of thing should be done imho.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m talking about circuits like Essington, where there is an online culture to put all four wheels inside the the pit lane approach and exit, in order to take both the final and first corner faster.

Another gripe is the online culture of racing on the apron around ovals like Orchard Lake, leaving the banked road altogether.

[b]Its just plain wrong...[/b]

In contrast to your Interlagos F1 example, I believe the F1 drivers were warned to avoid the Singapore pit lane entry altogether in 2008.</description>

&lt;/blockquote&gt;

What do you mean by that? It&#039;s allowed to use pitlane exit or entry lanes for racing unless you hinder a car entering/exiting pits.
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhSLvPHpVf0 at 1:10 Alonso&#039;s pole lap, fully crossing the pit entry line with all 4 wheels.</description>

		<description>Personally, I&#039;m getting really miffed by poor race ettiquette online recently...

Corner cutting (&gt;2 wheels off track, including use of pit entry/exit)
Delayed and bad technique when shown blue flags
Rejoining the track after accident without any consideration for those approaching area at race pace
People ignoring yellow flags, trying to drive through an accident zone at race pace (instead of slowing down AND not overtaking)
People leaving pits without regard for the pit exit lane (going stright to racing line at snail pace)

The problem is that in most sim racers, there is no consequence for such poor actions! I dispair of the lack of penalties given, say one warning at a track &quot;weekend&quot; and then start dishing out drive-throughs and stop&#039;n&#039;go wrist slaps...

I long for the day, hopefully in RF2, when we each have a unique online &quot;key&quot; which keeps a record of not only our final positions in races but also our behaviour (think a more refined version of Nascar2003&#039;s rating/inc system). Server admins could then use these parameters to keep out the likes of &quot;Penis Boy&quot; (infamous rfactor impersonator/wrecker) as well as dictate the standard of racing they expect visitors to abide by... without needing to be marshalls 24/7!</description>

		<description>I hadn&#039;t raced on a public server for some time. The driving was WORSE than I saw in Toca Race Driver 2 servers. Two corners in on lap 1, I get shunted up the rear to dead last (from 8th out of 22). I fight back up to 13th only to find someone driving the wrong way...

Just absolutely pathetic. WHY do these people race if they&#039;re going to drive like that? I mean I know griefing occurs in most online games, but I&#039;d say a good 50% were just absolute jackasses. Even in qualifying they were taking each other off.

It&#039;s very sad:(</description>

		<description>That&#039;s why I don&#039;t race on public servers very often. It&#039;s just not worth dealing with small children. Honestly, they should go play GRID and ram each other or jump off a cliff. :sd:</description>

Given the sheer number of utter douchebags that race on GTR Evolution public servers, this should be mandatory viewing for them on loop until the stupid assholes learn how to race properly.</description>
