  1. Hey James, welcome to the forum! Off-topic is a very cool place, I spend a lot of my time here, I'm sure you'll love it.

    As Tommig said, I am now a moderator, but I won't go power-crazy don't worry! :p I've run my racing league's forum for over two years and in that time I've only permanently banned about 60 people! (Mind you, about 57 of those were the same guy, and the other three was another guy) :O

    But have a great time, any questions just ask, and get posting! 

  2. It's apparently meant to snow tonight but I can guarantee I'll wake up and look out my window tomorrow with a face of disappointment at the fact it won't be a snow day :(

    I remember a couple of years ago it was really snowing like anything, really bad on my road but the school tweeted on the official account that school would be on the next day. It was funny seeing all the hate tweets they got from students, hehe :p 

  3. The Mercedes understandably looks like an evaluation on last year, really not much change at all, livery or shape wise.

    The McLaren, I like the long low nose! The livery, it's like they ran out of red paint to make the lines to the back of the car thicker! :p I really don't know why they didn't make the silver areas white either. It would not only match their new team gear but also a reminder of the old Honda days, not only with McLaren in the late 80s-early 90s but also the BAR/Honda team years!

  4. Yeah he was a right pain. One of the admins was called iSuperScrub so of course he made an account called iSuperScrubToilets. I''ll be honest I did chuckle at that one!

    But it was all good because good ol' Prawny signed him up to an um, what shall we say, inappropriate website?! I'm sure he can remember... :p

  5. @fIsince08 @PeteTheDuck Damnit! That's a rank I'll never be able to attain :p
    Well done though guys! Nice to see 2 of off-topics best members being promoted to mod status here :) Just goes to show that only the best post in this section!

    If I keep saying nice things about you and giving you both points will you promise to never ban me? ;)
    Thanks bud, I'll do the best I can to help out! I can't make any promises like that though aha! :p Just post in your usual good and hilarious ways and you should be fine!

    And I'll go back to doing nothing with all this free time :s 
    You two will do great though ;)
    You could spend your free time making their life as difficult as possible as a moderator. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: :smiley: 
    Well we now have banning powers, soooo.... :p

    That reminds me of something that happened to my VRL forum a year and a half ago actually. Remember a guy called JoeyZ? In one night he created I think 57 different accounts on the forum and therefore 57 Email addresses! :o What a waste of time that was!

    Has anyone been told they've been selected to become a moderator yet? I have a feeling it'll be someone who posts regularly in the Dirt section.
    Hatta said in his original post that the community moderator position 'could be just one of you, or it could be a few'. I wouldn't be surprised if there are at least two or three actually. Hatta also said to expect an announcement this week, so we still have another six days. I wouldn't worry bud.

  8. I was gonna post this the other day but forgot, so I'll do it now!

    So you probably know there's been applications for moderators on the forums and I applied. Well the other day I went into my Email and I saw this preview come up in my inbox!



    At this point I was thinking 'hmm, I wonder if that could be anything to do with the new moderator applications, maybe they've promoted me to...'.

    I then tapped on the Email to view the full message and it read:



    TEAM PRINCIPAL! AWESOME!

  9. I love Formula 1, I always have and I always will, but my god some of the teams and the people who run it don't half wind me up.

    Ferrari are calling for a 'revolution' in the rules. Why is it always Ferrari who b*tch about the rules when it's not going their way? No other team does it to the extent of Ferrari. How about they just get on with building a car that's good enough to win again because the last couple of years have been rubbish! It's laughable to think they haven't won a championship since 2008.

    And then there's the point that apparently the sport is losing fans to 'the internet and video games'. This links well to the story about FOM and their stupid copyrighting thing. If so many people are on the internet then, why don't you make a bleeding YouTube account, Facebook page, etc to publicise the sport more! Get people involved, attract them to this awesome sport with incredible technology, amazing speed, super human drivers, incredible overtakes, a superb history.

    I know that was an awfully worded comment but I'm fed up with it. There's always something wrong with F1, be it the rules, the TV, the sponsors being aimed at old people, the noise, the look of the cars, the tyres, etc.

  10. The Williams looks good, the front wing design is similar to what Mercedes had when you look at where the wing is joined to the nose (only at the very end, not much). Also, what's the sponsor on the side of the Williams there? Can't quite make it out from the image.
