I don't even know why you're still complaining about this, Axel. We already know your problems with how things are, and you've already stopped your involvement in anything in the ASMF. What do you want from continuing this argument? Because if it's to change the way the ASMF runs, when most people are fine with the emphasis on realism, then you can forget about it.

Hey, as long as you stop complaining for no apparent reason, I'm cool with that.

The point in racing is to be first to the finishline, not to be first to the borderline.

If someone's complaining about your posting habits, it might hurt your pride but just take the advice on board and move on. No point in crying about it.

I would say that crying about how other members mistakes or lack of knowledge is equally as pointless. As for the Canon is run, the best course of action is just to abide by the same rules as everyone else. I can safely say from personal experience that repeatedly complaining about it does not achieve anything

Just my two cents

Just in case I don't have internet, I'll be gone from the 4th through the 8th (at least a break I can confirm unlike my many in the past half year) for the sake of going to the Canadian GP, which will be my first GP experience. I cannot wait for it!

Hope you enjoy it. It ought to be a memorable race, although regarding the recent lack of shock results and the miserable race of 2013 that isn't a certainty.

I am not here from Wednesday to Sunday, so, uh, yeah...if you want me to do stuff you'll have to give it to my receptionist and she'll sort it out when I'm back. Or send me PMs, because I can't actually afford to employ a receptionist.

As an FYI to anyone that needs it, I'll be travelling down to Melbourne with the racing team I work with tomorrow morning, and I won't be returning until Monday afternoon (14th of December). If you require me for anything, I'll try to get to it during the race weekend, but I wouldn't bet the house on it

Guick heads up - my laptop is going in for a service tomorrow, and given the issues with the hard drive that I've had, I'm not sure how long it'll be there for. Chances are I won't be around the forums or the chat until the New Year.

As of 12:45 p.m. tomorrow, with me turning 18, I'm going to be enlisted into National Service, a compulsory two-year or so programme where people like us are trained to go into the Army here in Singapore. What does that mean for me?

I'm not going to be here for 2-3 weeks, and after that, my access to this forum will probably be restricted to just the weekends. For the next 1.5 years. I'll try to work things out with my series in place of my absence and so on, in particular F3 Eurasia, GTR-WC (holy shite I got a 1-2 last race), Alt-F1 1950's and the alternate A1GP.

I'll try to cover my plans across these series for the next few weeks today, but if there's anything specific you want me to cover, drop me a PM today. Thanks.

Laptop went in for its service yesterday afternoon, so I probably won't be on the forum much until Saturday. Sorry if I'm holding up any series with my absence.

I will be out of touch over the weekend since I have a field trip as part of my college courses to do over the two days. I may pop by sometime after 7 PM PST, but don't expect any major posts, if at all, in that time.
