Online Etiquette

[Lance]

Sinus 1 is the name of the slowest speed class of one of the racing teams in KillerLoop, IIRC. Coincidence? Joke? ???

[QjonPL]

I think he's never been seen racing Phantom online, so... ;p

[yeldar2097]

HA! WRONG!

I raced him at phantom once

...he left straight after the race finished....

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

I do not know,but have you ever been sent messages during races? I have.
There was this person whose username is dark1mad(dunno about the capitalization or not).He kept asking me this:
U listen my music?
He was hosting a 12 stage tournament.
The following is(I think)the conversation(I am FEISAR-CSY in this conversation)
Dark1mad:you listen my music?
FEISAR-CSY(me):no.thank you.
dark1mad:my playlist in game.you listen my music?
FEISAR-CSY:I like playing WipEout(i feel that this was the most retarded of this conversation)
dark1mad:I know.do you listen my music?
FEISAR-CSY:huh?
dark1mad:do you have custom playlist?
FEISAR-CSY:I do have my own custom playlist
dark1mad:listen alone or what?
FEISAR-CSY:I listen while playing.why not play a bit?
At round 10 or 11,he quitted the room.
I know I left out some details.The messages I received were received when I was racing.

I think he was asking wheter you would be hearing his custom playlist while racing. Which obviously you can't.

[blackwiggle]

I thank Christ [term only,I'm an atheist] that nobody has to suffer the host's play list whilst racing online.
I could think of nothing worse than to have to put up with some of the dire tripe some consider music while racing

[F.E.I.S.A.R]

I think he was asking wheter you would be hearing his custom playlist while racing. Which obviously you can't.

I find that he asking if I could listen to his playlist was quite retarded.I mean,why would anyone want to listen to somebody elses playlist if you already have one?
Anyways,getting messages between races is just(to me)plain rude

[mic-dk]

I frequently has to thank z1r0rei between races for bombing my face. Or laugh at him when I once every 100th race manage to stick some rockets up him on the last lap.

Some friendly flaming between races is part of the fun IMHO, but only between pilots I've raced dozens of times before.

I'll grant you it was a kinda weird question though...

OnTopic:
The thing that pisses me off most is when (as TS pointed out in most of the points) the host changes venue or settings and starts the race immidiately without letting you change ship (or leave if you want to).
Using the same venue too many times is also pretty annoying.

[Koleax]

Yeah, even worse is when, after racing the same venue over and over, they do a 12-race tournament with that same track and start it without giving anyone the chance to take notice.

Yes that actually happened to me and with Ubermall Reverse. If there's any track that really feels ass-backwards it's that one.

[Aeroracer]

I always wait to see if players need to change thier ships and always wait when i change speed and setting to allow players to leave....

if i lose on my favourite tack i dont keep replaying it till i win then quit and run

i always praise good players who beat me or players who played well..

i never bomb or mine in last position.

i always pick varied tracks forward and reverse and not just my hot tracks..so everyone gets something they like....


i dont let players wait around for long time while im talking nonsence in the chat room with my friends..

i never walk off when im hosting like some do..when i want to finish i will leave session...

this is what i do as i consider it rude to do anything else..but everyone is different this just my way..
