He was causing trouble over on our Formula 1 subreddits too, but that was ages ago. He’s not solely to blame here; his biggest mistake was getting hooked on trolling and then biting back just as hard. Before this permanent ban, I didn't see him posting any nonsense on the Formula 1 page. Actually, he'd mellowed out quite a bit compared to when he first started posting; he was mostly fine there. He was great at starting threads before every race 👍, and he even came up with the subreddit Formula 1 Championship and F1 tournament 🙏 👍, which are awesome competitions I participate in myself. From what I hear, the ban happened because of issues he supposedly caused over on the Soccer subreddit. I don't hang out there, so I don't know the specifics, but as a regular user on the Formula 1 page—one of the most active ones, if not *the* most active—I think he should be let back in.
Just give him a temporary suspension on the Soccer subreddit if he's bothering the soccer fans or the mods there, and call it a day.

In that case, I'm pretty sure he won't bother making clones or causing drama on the soccer page again.

Solid idea 🤣
Honestly, I don't think it's a bad move, mostly because banning people is pretty much pointless anyway 🙄
I don't really see what the actual goal is here. When you ban someone, they just make a burner account, get banned again, make another one, and it goes on forever. Eventually, entire threads—or even the whole damn PDF—get buried under a mountain of clones and spam posts. Then the mods spend all their time deleting stuff, and the site goes down constantly. 👎Because of that, the regular users basically just... bail. They leave, while the troll is still right there.
Doing it this way wouldn't be half bad 🤣kill off the PDF trolls 🤣and we won't have to worry about it anymore 😳

"A picture is worth a thousand words," and this YouTube video 🤣😂
definitely proves it.

What's his deal here? 🤣😂

I am 100% on Mika Salo's side.☕

Looks like even some random peasant crawled out of the grave just to vote for the Frenchman.😁 🤣

Where would you even know 😕that guy? He hasn't been around since early 2008. 🤷Where were you guys, hanging out at a dive bar drinking expensive beer? 🤷

just to keep this Gallup poll unpredictable until the very last second. 🙏 😁

Only true experts vote for Jean Todt. 😬🤣

Jean Todt see result 🤣

Morgan Murphy7 said:Pretty sure I was the one who suggested that. 😁

🤣 Could be. I know some of you are die-hard Renault fans, and honestly, you're starting to sound just like one of them. 😁

Prophet master 🙏

Man, you guys are still so young and naive. Just vote for Jean Todt 😉

If the FIA actually ran a Gallup poll among fans, even if Jean Todt got 99.99% of the vote, I guarantee Max Verstappen and Bernie Ecclestone would just order them to pick Mika Salo instead 🤣. Basically, the more the crowd wants something, the more those guys push against it 😬.

And trust me, Bernie is definitely lurking on Reddit 😂.

Don't you guys remember someone bringing up Piquet's tactic of driving straight into the wall? 🤣 I'm pretty sure someone posted that right before that one legendary race 🤣. But since everyone’s too busy being stubborn to spam anymore 😢, I can't even find the original post 🤣.

Vlatko Marković or Zdravko Mamić🤣

When it comes to the Ball, it's all just a masquerade 😬 why bother with Surveys? Jean Todt was a done deal ages ago, and even if he wasn't, everyone would just be dancing to whatever tune Bernie plays anyway.☕

It’s official, so stop calling it a rumor.☕

Look, truth be told, today's Chevrolet has basically nothing to do with the old-school Lotus besides the name. We'll just have to wait and see what kind of outfit they actually turn out to be.😉

Is Vettel being treated like a Minardi driver here or what? 🤷

Joseph Fisher2 said:thanks, thanks, thanks 🙏
just wanted to double-check one thing here—
If Mark Weber finally pulls off a win at some VeloNews, which former Minardi driver would be next in line to join that club? Would he be third, fifth, sixth, or eighth?

I’m leaning towards fifth, but I'm worried I might have missed someone from back in the day.

Mark Webber won at VeloNews Germany 2009 ☕

🤣Sure, you can find out everything—including whether you're downloading stuff from Dropbox😬

You can even see if the address rotates every 24 hours or every 10-15 minutes😬

Anonymous said:I’ve only had two clones on this forum. One was from a few months back when I begged the admins to lift my permanent ban—failed miserably, obviously, and that one's banned. The second one was just to beg for Fallout 3, which we actually spent the same day obsessing over at a local pub over beers and coffee. I posted a few things with that clone. Look, I’m not hiding behind fake accounts, nor do I plan to. When stormybadger8 asked who I was, I told him straight up. That led to his report, and Sep was forced to ban that clone too. Thanks, stormybadger8. 👍

Since then, I’ve just been lurking as a guest. I check out NASCAR every now and then, but honestly, I don't care that much. This isn't the same crowd I used to know anymore.

Rainmator, cool nickname, but do me a favor and stop trying to pose as me. It’s shady. 👎

That's all from me.👍

P. S. Joz@, Fio, my bad!

So, who exactly are you? 😕

First off, what report did Sep get from me? I haven't reported anyone, especially not Rain, so I have zero clue where you're getting that from. 😕

And as for Rain, I haven't talked to him since he got banned here—at least not that I know of. Nobody ever reached out to me posing as Rain on some other NASCAR forum either. When I was asked if I had any clones on this site, I said no and that I had no idea whose clones they were.

The only time I’ve ever filed a report with a mod here was for Pilatus’s post where he was nitpicking my grammar and being provocative. That’s it. Nothing else, and certainly nothing about someone's clone. Sure, maybe I've tossed a comment over on Paddock suggesting Bobsi, Tarquat, or some other guy might be a clone of Pilatus or Rain, but that’s just talk, not an official report, and it doesn't have anything to do with this.

So, I don't know who you think you are, but frankly, I don't believe either of you is actually Rain. Someone is clearly just bored and looking for trouble. 🙄

And yeah, I agree with Pilatus, though I'm not sure who he's referring to. Based on how this looks, neither of you is Rain, and I really don't get why you guys think pretending to be someone else is a vibe. 👎

Edward Howard2 said:Are they next on the list? 😢

Could be 😢 but I really hope Renault doesn't pull a move like that. Their sales shot up thanks to NASCAR, which was a genius play, so I doubt they'll mess it up now.🤷

Personally, Toyota looks like a better bet.🤷

Your last few threads on the NASCAR PDF ended in total chaos—arguments, Joe, Mami, and Rain getting banned, you getting banned from the NASCAR PDF, that massive long-standing chat topic being wiped out, and the moderator leaving, even though she was actually great😢. After all that drama and your ban, there’s basically zero trouble on the NASCAR PDF, so why go looking for it again? 🤷

Given how obsessed you are with Michael Schumacher, I’m genuinely worried this won't end well😢. Just piles of trolling, insults, and endless, pointless arguments on the NASCAR PDF with anyone brave enough to debate you regarding the Magnificent one and his stats. I really don't see the point🤷. Maybe you've chilled out and won't target anyone specifically, but your non-stop worship of MSC will definitely trigger unnecessary fights and a ton of useless bickering.

All the NASCAR forums are already starting to descend into trolling and insults over MSC. Thankfully, we haven't seen that here yet, and honestly, we don't need it.

I might be wrong, but I really think this is a bad move 🤷 at least right now, especially with rumors of Schumacher returning to the track—God help us if that happens. I just don't believe this ends well😢
.
P. S. Sep is on vacation, so he won't be replying to this for at least a week. Other than that, I don't see any smart reason for him to come back, much less Joe, Rain, or Mami🤷
.
No hard feelings, and I hope you eventually make a comeback👍, but given the current situation, now definitely isn't the time.

They’re just salty because NASCAR hasn't completely fallen apart and they haven't all jumped ship yet. If everyone bailed, they'd actually have an excuse to walk away, but instead, they're just getting their teeth kicked in every single week. It's the exact same story as Honda. Their whole reason for being here was just to beat out the competition like Honda-Toyota or BMW-Mercedes, nothing else mattered. Since they kept losing that fight, they packed up and left. Next up is likely Toyota, since there isn't any real Japanese competition left to fight anyway. Honestly, we probably won't see them on the grid next season either.

Maminho 😢
Bring Maminho back because "who are you guys to deny people my presence" ,the legend 😁

And honestly, some guy used to post stuff like this ages ago—pretty sure he wasn't even on this forum, probably just hanging out at the IMF 🙏 Dr. Drolja 🙏 god, I can't help but laugh at posts like that 🙏

Procrastination is a trap. Get it done today while you actually can, because "tomorrow" isn't a guarantee.🤣

rustystag7 said:Damn, I’ve been gone for ages, but what happened to you people? Are you really just sitting around waiting for some middle schooler to start the conversation for you?😁🙏

Well, when he starts a thread, both Ferrari and McLaren are screwed, so why break a perfectly good tradition?😬🤣

silentbear49 said:Is he back at it? Expecting another Renault failure?

Waiting on mommy—except the kid is in school, actually getting an education... hopefully.😁

🤣He’s stuck in summer school for math.😬 🤣

Now he thinks he can do anything.😁
