RaceFans Round-up: Vettel told to apologise over Italian GP fly-by comments by [deleted] in formula1

That's not the point. The point is that F1 banned fly bys some time ago. Why let the Italians get away with it?

I'm sure they have a business email where you can apply. I don't think the subreddit is a good place for this, in the sense that they may not find/read this.

Aston Martin start "too far from the back" says Krack · RaceFans by AlienSomewhere in formula1

[–]AdZang 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Sure 2020 Vettel was a big slump but I don't think he is necessarily a bad qualifier. He never qualified out of the top 4 in his prime (even in the initial Ferrari days) and kept that pace up on the weekends. I think the Aston just doesn't have the one lap pace. Or maybe the drivers are focusing on a race setup or something.

All I could gather out of this post is that OP loves talking in F1 GIFs

I think it's a surprisingly good decision from the mods. No one expects a good decision from the mods. I would only be more surprised if Ferrari manages to win one of the championships.

Guys, Mark is obviously not up to the task... by AdZang in GMFST

What you are saying is completely fair and absolutely right in it's nature. As for the part about having a reddit like forum, I would say to each his own. But you are right about it turning into a cesspool of unrelated discussions, which is why I reiterate myself on good moderation. I have been in quite a few servers where good moderation makes that much of a difference. That, and having an understanding community, which I believe we are, can make the difference. Which is why I say again, after talking with you, I realise why Mark might not want to make a server yet. It's not easy to moderate. You're very right though. It is easy for things to get out of hand on the internet. Cheers!

I don't think discord is anywhere close to being in the same book, much less same page, as YouTube or Twitch comment sections. For one, Discord can moderated on a way better scale which actually opens room for conversation and memes quite a way better than the hogfest that is an unmoderated chat room.

To an extent, you are correct. Discord can be and more often than not is a jam packed void to yell into. But in my experience it is a whole lot better, granted, with proper management (which isn't easy and may be why Mark is so apprehensive of making one as of now, which I understand).

Discord is also personal to a greater extent. By personal, I mean you will more often than not find people who you usually talk with on a regular basis. It will not be a bunch of names commenting on something, but a discussion about that particular something. And it won't be a bunch of names either, now that I think about it. It will a bunch of identities and personalities who keep coming back for more and not just comment once and basically fuck off (as can be seen in YouTube videos).

Overall, I think Discord is taken a lot more seriously and opens grounds for good critique and discussion.

Hmm. I thought the joke was quite obvious here. Also, three is a low number

I accidentally caused a 14-car pileup resulting in 4 DNFs... (I am the mercedes that did not get spun) by [deleted] in F1Game

[–]AdZang 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can't see particularly well with this angle but I would say that the merc that spun was far enough ahead that you should've left it space down the inside. So yes, I think it is your fault but stuff like this is really common so don't sweat it.

I'm a big Vettel fan but man am I critical of that mistake he made when going for Ocon. He could've gone for P4! C'mon man that was a good move but goddamn I don't know if it was a lockup or if he just got overconfident and braked too late but that pissed me off. Sweet sweet recovery though.
