But seriously,

since public broadcast, with HSO logo etc, is a picture that represents all of us. I must admit, Im shamed with that, and I wouldnt wont to be represented this way.

There is only one official broadcast, the one with Jonathan and Scott, and we can't stop people from livestreaming their life if they want, neither can we police what members say/do to each other outside this forum but there is something else we can - and will do.

Of corse. There is only to determine is racing on a track "outside" the forum?
But, I dont want to push further on this subject. Id just like not to have this disscussions repeatedly.
Id prefer some technical/strategic details in post race debrifeing sessions...

Great!! My first points at HSO this year. I really enjoyed this race. Nice and clean battle with everybody around me. Really dont know how Jacob did with one lap down this win. Really impressive. Congratulation to you!

Knowing I sometimes have not so friendly words left for my competitors in the heat of a race, I'd never came up with the idea of recording and sharing my in-race audio from my room...


...I'm prolly gettin' a bit old for that kind of stuff...

We are all different, I generally don't say anything about other drivers that I race with, though I can think things like "why did he/she do that, that wasn't fair" and so on.

I've only lost my cool once, that was a TC race at Hungaroring where I went from 5th to 1st at the start thanks to a good start and RWD.
Come 2nd to last turn, the guy behind came from 8 or so car-leanghts back and drilled the back of me, spinning me off and sending me to the back of the pack.

My comments then were in Swedish but everyone in TS understood, from my tone, more or less word for word what I was saying/expressing.

I later went on to appologise to everyone in the channel and to the guy that had done it as he appologised for his... audacious try at overtaking.


But, in general, I understand why you wouldn't like being called things.

I too have been "called" things, I have often been a rear-marker at other sites and some of the broadcast crews there has not been happy with my "RL let by" of lappers and therefore been called different things but I never took any notice as I knew I was in the clear.


Now:
Thank you Scott, that is good to know and hopefully I will remember it this time

I can just talk for myself, I think, its more kind of a stress relief. Its very seldom I'm really mad at someone. Last year at Michigan, I had such a situation. And to a lesser degree, yesterday in the second half of the race, when we stumbled from one yellow to another. But usually, a loud 'IDIOT' or something like that does it, and on goes the race...

To put it accurately, Michael hit the nail on the head. That's the least I'll say. Also, I take those former posts as a threat and I'm stunned by the way this is handled. Just because I'm doing those live streams, I'm getting all the shit thrown at my head? Seriously? I guarantee you all, every single one of you at least occasionally insult, badmouth, call other drivers names. But only because I'm providing a view into my cockpit, my mind, my stress during the race, I'm being threatened with being kicked out of here not just by PM but also officially here?
It more and more simply seems that those who have decision power here have developed a simple disliking for my sheer existence in this league. If that's the case, just come out on it, for Christ's sake! Also, I'm going to stress this out again, I promise everyone, I swear to god, if there was actual cockpit broadcasting from Jason White's, Alberto Ibañez' etc. but especially from Jason's perspective, my "profanity" or whatever you want to call it, would be nothing. I'm even trying to improve my mental behavior towards other drivers especially due to inevitable respect but this apparently doesn't seem to matter at all.

Pascal, there's an old saying that maybe you should learn. "When you are in a hole, stop digging."

No one is saying others do not swear. I bet all of us have. But since you broadcast your races, surely you know the people you are calling whatever profanity you choose could well hear what you have said.

The fact people have posted they are offended by your remarks should be enough to make you stop and think "Should I say this on a broadcast?"

 Also you haven't apologised for what you have said either. If it was heat of the moment, most people will apologise to the person they offended. But as of yet, i haven't seen anything like that from you.

Also doesn't the fact you are banned from other chats on other games make you question, perhaps I am going too far here.

A threat? Hardly now. People have the right to call out behaviour of this manner.

It's not just because you're doing the live streams. You could hold a livestream that does not bash others especially with explicit language, you're just asking for trouble doing what you're doing now. Yes, a lot of us may occasionally "insult, badmouth and call other drivers names" yet we do not broadcast it, or aggressively spill out rage on the forums well after the race is run.

I can guarantee you there is absolutely no conspiracy against you. The admins police HSO based on people's actions and the corresponding rules, not everything revolves around yourself.

Completely irrelevant. Big difference between what you say to yourself and what you choose to broadcast to the outside world. You have chosen to stream your races so you should conduct yourself accordingly.

Do yourself a favour, own up to your mistakes and apologise.

Which is why we don't livestream.

You are being warned about being kicked out if you use our logos and put your livestream links here. As far as we are concerned you can broadcast how you shit in the toilet in the morning if that is your desire. But do so without HSO logos or posting links here.

change of subject

@Jason during a caution you went into the pits and you typed 4 times 'GREEN' ....what happenend behind your keyboard which caused that? Accidentaly hit the key binding messages?

Was happy to see everyone kept following the pace car

Yes a rather embarrassing moment for me. Leftover chat keys from Indy. They are gone now, replaced with ignition and starter, which is what I was frantically trying to find 

Any screenshots? I only took of my "donuts" and I don't want to appear as too braggy.

DUH

Damn it, Pascal! You drove a great race, based on what Jonaton and I saw. Richard Coxon even backed you on the broadcast, saying in your altercation that you didn't hit him -- just took the air off his rear wing.

BUT! You idiot! You're already on thin ice, the way I understand it. And it would seem that everyone is trying to throw you ropes so you don't fall through. So grab a rope, quit swinging your self-important axe at the thin ice you're already standing on, and shut the hell up!

I like you being around here. But, honestly, I don't think anybody in the world gives a tinker's damn what a 16 year-old German boy has to say from the cockpit of his cartoon race car!

To follow on what Jason said, when you can't see the sun, you're deep enough.

And, as a small aside, Jereb should not make such lofty cursing claims until he's heard the things being said about his pacing ability at the latest Indy test races.

You put the perfect imprint of a tulip on the front stretch!

Congrats on your victory!

Noh, driving here is a relaxation for me, clearing my mind from everyday stress, thus, cursing, if it happens at all, is pointed to myself.

And if things are being said, there is a good reason for that, lets start with pacing ability

Too bad is that only I can se my progress

And now, give me names, I want to settle things down.

No, Raul. The only name I can give you is my own.

But, like you said, most of the swearing is done at ourselves.  All I meant to say was that there are several here that have melted their headsets with things that never go out over the air.

Before I leave for Le Mans, I'd like to apologise for irregular re-start behaviour and verbal conduct.

Anyway, see you.
