May I ask as to why you were racing in a league with only 2 other managers, both of whom are probably inactive(based on what you are saying and the race results)?
Trying to get a free championship and statpad perhaps?
actually is the other manager that is trying to get championship without even racing at all. i am an active player. i play the game to have fun racing and yes to improve my car and pilots like everyone in the game. many manager do go in leagues where they can win or at least be able to be in the top. this is not something new. everyone is looking for this to improve and get some results. when i joined this league i could not know if some are active or not. it dont show up when u join a league. when u leave a league u do have to start again and lose stuff. i wanted to finish that season i started on the first race of the season.
i was in another league where i have been a victim of harassment from another player. we cant even block a player from send message and i had to ask support which never told me i could block messages from other who are not on my friend list and such. i had to deal with this for weeks and have messages and friend request one after the other. finally i had a league where i was ok and now the league admin kicked me out.
this game is full of issues. they need to correct those problems. not only the game is unfair with some players who spend money and have everything maxed out , the leagues are not balanced and not good for new players. i reported some problems a few times and nobody answer and the game support seems non existant almost. they dont seem to care about what people think and say. the game will lose players because of all the issues.
btw ross brawn , i see u have a high rep. dont tell me u never tried yourself to be able to be in a league where u will win and u did not try to do things so that you will improve. i bet u spend money in the game (which give advantage over others) and that you are probably one of those who dont care and dont see the issues i mentioned and would not do anything to make this game better and fair for everyone. this is typical to the top players in a game. they dont want things changed because they do actually win. a good sign that u dont care is that all u find to tell me is bs.
finally , i would like to add that some players are using multiple accounts and make dummy accounts in their league. the game support does know this and they do nothing about it. now it they would do things correctly , many things would be changed. this make no sense. many people do cheat and use some methofs to get better rep or better results and to maintain leagues with dummy accounts. this is very well known as u can read it in the leagues since they even tell it to everyone.
Although I sympathise with you for the fact that the guy kicked you out for no reason, tbh seeing only three managers in an entire league that too with two almost inactive would pretty much give anyone an inkling that they should get out of there as soon as possible.
Of course there are people who come with join my league messages, but I politely decline them saying something like the timing or the schedule doesn’t suit me.
As for the personal remarks, I never cared of reputation points, and tbh never knew the hall of fame thing existed until someone pointed it out to me like 3 months ago. Both of my promotions to pro and to elite have come in different leagues. I left my first one because the pro league there was barely active, and for someone who cares about competing rather than plain stats, I would be more satisfied with losing a three way battle for a win rather than a win with a lap over P2.
There are plenty of good leagues around, there is an entire thread in the forum dedicated for the purpose. Pick a good active one.
Concerning the paying to win part, yes it has gotten more relevant since the last upgrade, but pretty much everyone understands the management needs cash flow to keep the game up and running. The better the stability of the game, the more the developers can focus towards bringing us more and better content, as that is one less thing for them to worry about. As long as the game doesn’t bring in a
Buy Victory button, I am pretty much okay with it, as this model is better than most other games I have seen / played.
