RULES (updated 01/22/25)
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
- Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
- Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
- Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.

I'm not so sure. There's 34 upvotes on this post so far and with me chiming in there's a confirmed 3 simracers commenting already. Probably more.
And while you are probably better than me by the sounds of it, I'm good enough in my rig that if you make a small mistake or two I have a pretty good chance. Especially if I get to pick the track.
With a million bucks on the line the pressure will be on. Have you raced for a million dollars before?
Lol no, just bragging right ls between my son and I and internet people. I'm not great in traffic, if I don't start on front it gets sketchy for me making it even in VR.
What is your track(s) of choice?
I like the shorter faster circuits with high speed turns. Red Bull ring, Monza, Silverstone, Barcelona and maybe even Paul Ricard. Canada is fun too.
I suck at anything too twisty and technical. Can't do Monaco to save my life.
Monaco I have yet to get a good lap time. It's brutal!
I also like CODA for that reason. I'm still struggling with city tracks but getting better, Singapore wasn't terrible last time I raced it!
