Over the course of history? Yeah, that's like saying "Americans are murderers." because your ancestors massacred the native population. There are very few religions that have intolerance within their creeds. However religion was frequently used as a decoy to excuse power struggles. That hardly makes religion or any religious group by itself intolerant. Using a sexuality or race in the analogy would be just as wrong. Do all whites discriminate blacks or vice versa (use any combination of races/ethnicities)? Do all heterosexuals hate homosexuals? Yeah, didn't think so. The point. Your head. Sure. As ever.

As I said. Not realistic, but believable. You are willing to suspend your disbelief and accept that reality isn't exactly like this, but it's close enough for a game of this type, and it is cool as hell at that. That means you accept that your car doesn't annihilate itself upon a high speed impact, the suspension doesn't give in after a jump... That however doesn't mean that completely senseless stuff like curb boosting should be in the game. That has nothing to do with reality or adjusting a game to casual/arcade standards, that's just poor game design. And Trowa, if you don't want to talk about religion, don't make ignorant generalizations. The thing is I don't suspend disbelieve. Besides I want to race at my skill level which is more challenging if I hit curbs and is also rewarding because I'm faster for it. Everyone knows about it and the fastest way around a corner will always at least be touching a curb if not getting all your tires on said curb. So at the end of it all if you don't like curb boosting don't use realism as the holy grail answer because it not. On a side note all religion is flawed. It was written by MAN and MAN is flawed. Doesn't mean their can't be something greater don't get me there but I don't there is a single book that has it right because the one who wrote it was a man. That goes for all religions so if you want to have a debate about that as well go ahead and prove to me that man isn't flawed and wrote down (insert deity's name) whole thoughts word for word. No half sections either, gotta be the whole book without contradiction. Otherwise man fucked it up and therefore I can't believe a single word because MAN fucked it up or wrote down some bullshit I won't trust much the same as I don't trust strangers. Hey, you're free to think whatever you want, I did not come to preach and I don't want to argue. It might just be worth bearing in mind that most of religious texts were written centuries ago, in different ages for different people, and more often than not are not meant to be taken literally.

I don't see what the problem is.Kerb boosting is in the game,if you want to use it go ahead and use it,if you dont want to use it then don't use it.If you want it gone sign a petition or send an email.If you want to design a track that minimises kerb boosting then do that!It's your track so it's your choice.If you want to host an event were kerb boosting is banned then do that and ignore anyone who gets pissed off that it's banned.I don't get why this has turned into such a bitching thread.Don't take some moral high ground and insult people because they use the kerb boost and likewise don't attack people because they don't use it or wish to make a track or event without it

I respectfully disagree on the literal part, but until the day comes that a argument or debate arises of religion then we can carry on with this. I'm not trying to attack at all I just want people to use all the mechanics in the game because I find it more fun if everyone is really fast and tries to push themselves. Also, I don't like tracks that are so choked up because you can't cut a corner to hold speed. To me to ruins the flow and it becomes who fucks up first instead of who can actually can pass and make the most after the start line. That's my experience in game with the added stipulation if you're too close looking to pass and have no where to go and the person in front fucks up in turn fucks me up isn't that great either which blocking corner cuts tends to do.

Crazy should use the forums more often, he is a wise man. oh and @moostered run events all you like with offroads and kerbs banned. I was a part of the people who discovered it so ima use it, and you wont stop any of us hitting every boost we can. GL up there on the moral high ground, the lack of oxygen may be getting to you

GL up there on the moral high ground, the lack of oxygen may be getting to you I only talk if I have something to say, other than that I'm reading posts I have been in or on GTA racing and grinding missions. I don't say anything if I feel my opinion isn't insightful or thought provoking then I'll keep it to myself. Why read another post that basically says the same thing from me when someone else has already said the same thing I think on the situation.
