uh... well i guess i'll kind of get back on topic here:
about the point being made about how AP was supposed to help stem the "macro" problem, from what i've noticed since coming back to MNC is that shlt hasn't really changed. before, instead of "macros" being the problem, it was the use of "multis". now i'm no wise-man, but i don't really see much difference with the AP system. obviously, this does not apply to the majority of MNC players (i would hope...), but i don't see how setting one's AP to race the same people (friends, cousins, moms, dads, sisters, grand parents, or god forbid "brothers")- whose account(s) remain at the same NW, exp level, etc the entire session- is really any different than people setting up "multis" to race themselves like in the past.
I personally don't really care either way about it, because i figure that no matter what, there will be people who will attempt to beat the system. it's happened since the beginning of the game, and it is still happening now.
on another note, i agree with whoever made the suggestion to abolish the NW range restriction for racing online. it makes sense to have it for offline play, so that it doesn't turn into another situation where all you do is log in and race the top person X amount of times to gain exp. (ex: danny_ocean lol)
finally, i agree completely with what midori has said about talking shlt, being a noob/vet, and about knowing where u stand in the MNC community. i'm pretty sure that for the most part, no one REALLY cares how much of a hard-ass you are or how gangsta' u can be.
even though i've been a registered member for hella long, i don't consider myself to be a "vet","pro", or w/e. I have the respect of other players because i earned it. I've never really talked shlt about other players because i've never needed to. sure Iâve had beefs with certain players and the cliques they associated with. like in the sessions where i was almost ALWAYS online racing, the crew i was in would end up getting "burned" out of first place in the last week of the session, and all my effort would be in vain. so instead of crying and bitching about it i learned how to steal and just HI'd, boosted, and recruited the living shlt out of people. i eventually got fed up with the drama and the "game changes", so i quit. for some reason, i decided to "check in" at the end of the last session, and here i am again.lol -.-'
so yeah, that's my two cents. :roll:
