+ REPORT mrblazefist (Report Archived by BP)

[[TC]►BP◄]

Hi,

Quick note first of all. It's generally a good idea to reconnect every few hours during large sessions. Alternatively, if you've spent a long time AFK, re-connect before resuming your drive. A very long replay (10 hours in this case) is really fiddly to deal with.

Onto the report: mrblazefist claims he is experiencing internet problems. This is however not visible from the replay. As I have only limited knowledge of how certain network/connection issues appear, I will take his word.

With that said, the user's actions were unacceptable regardless of any possible excuse. He caused an accident and failed to acknowledge fault.

Side-note: "gay" is not a homophobic slur. In certain contexts, it may be deemed insulting but this isn't one of them. As you mentioned, the worst part is that this was his first reaction to the crash.

If this incident was because of mrblazefist's connection problems:
It is every user's responsibility to ensure their connection will not impede the gameplay of others. If a user sees cars disappearing intermittently, or has a "LAGGING" notice on their screen, they need to stop driving to avoid problems. In this case, it is especially foolish to take chances based on where you think a user is going to re-appear (as the reported user claimed to do).

If this incident was NOT because of mrblazefist's connection problems:
The crash was clearly as a result of his negligent driving and lack of patience.
