    Oops. Made the mistake of calling someone a "twat" in an admin heavy area on TruckersMP. 2nd ban for "offensive language" *yawn*

    Report them for being cunty drivers. Or stop playing it. I can't get on with that since there's no rules against driving like a jackass

    Sometimes forget it's PEGI 3... So that automatically means people on there still watch Cbeebies.

    There's no rules against speeding, lane cutting or overtaking dangerously so you find you have no recourse which sucks when you're playing ETS2 hoping to just play it like you would normally only socially. Instead I hate everyone on there so I take to speeding up whenever someone tries an overtake on a single carriageway which sooner or later means they crash into someone going the other way and get themselves banned or cutting them off if they're going moronlically fast on a motorway.

    Especially those idiots doing 150mph through Rotterdam in their silly Skodas. I stopped playing MP, so I could use ProMods. In the first 10 minutes of playing again I already got clipped at the side of some guy driving wayyy too fast.

    TruckersMP moderation is one big joke.

    I used to play ETS2 within speed limits but that got a little boring after a while. So I now speed and try and drive as fast as possible without crashing, then load an autosave if I do crash. Since I only played ETS2 as something to do while watching a long YouTube video. Naturally watching YouTube while driving a lorry at 100mph+ was a recipe for safe driving, although in fairness I would only crash occasionally while doing that.

    I did try ETS2 MP once, it was ok, but that was before they enforced the speed limiters (although I did drive more carefully online, mostly speeding on motorways). At which point I have never used it again.

    These days I tend to play assetto corsa instead. Taking the MX5 along some tarmac rally or point to point event is a really good time.

    It has the feel of little hitlers enjoying their power. then I saw how they get hired and realize that that is exactly what it is.

    On the second Europe server, there's no speed limiters. But, that's the server with all the idiots in their Skodas xD

    Not gonna lie that's the most beautiful design I've ever seen that resulted from a driver decapitating accident.

    Took the Squeezebox apart today, for an 11 year old device the internals are looking pretty immaculate. Here are some picks for anyone interested.

    54mbps wifi!
    On a side note the freeview box under it is one of the worst I have ever used.

    Remember Kids, when discharging a capacitor, don't use a nail. (Slight lapse in concentration on my part there, thought it was my screwdriver). Either way, that shock certainly woke me up!

    Our '04 MG ZR "The turd" as we affectionately know it just passed it's MOT. £200 we paid for it last year because it'd been reversed into something and the rear quarter is pretty bent up. It failed the first time we sent it, outer CV joint boots both sides and a fuel leak in the engine bay, two new CV boots and a tightened hose clamp later and we got another year out of this junker.
