I think this is a cool idea for a thread, since the game has little servers and almost always 0 players for every time. You check when someone replied to this thread, and if its within the last 5 minutes then you have a chance of joining the server and racing them.

(minimum 5 minute rule so if you reply and nobody joins you can leave after 5 minutes)

This could be a sticky thread...

Lets see how it goes ;D

It is best you state what bike, track and server if you want to do anything.

Its not like anyone will have trouble finding the server, there are only 2 or 3 most of the time and empty so if it says there is a player in the server you just join that one.

maybe we should ask piboso if he can change this?
it's very confusing for new members or the ones who are not in the forum every day.

But having servers there with tracks you don't have, is also confusing, then you try to join and realise that "oh damn, i don't have that track" have to exit game, downoad the track and then start again, i would rather make sure people know about the stats and server page. Easy to see there and then download what is needed :)

Otherwise it should be seperated somehow, the servers with tracks you have and the servers with tracks you don't have.

@ IronHorse: Just keep a check on the link above that Blacky posted.... That shows at all times what servers are online and what tracks they are using no matter if you don't have those tracks installed. That way you will know what individual track you will need to download and install if you already don't have it. It just saves having to have all tracks installed all the time which can take up a large amount of hard drive space considering a lot of tracks are not used very often unless requested.  ;)

Ok guys,

But I still think this thread can work, don't you? Just follow rules from DD's reply   ;)

Its good because people you don't have contacts with can see the thread and know you want to race, then they should join you on the server you are on and race with you. Its like a track noticeboard. Non?  8)

Only problem is, this is GPB forum and everyone is too lazy to do sweet FA unless you hand it to them on a gold platter lol.

Good idea but the online link from Blacky is where you see where people actually are online!!!

Right now the IN bike is Manu's Moto2 Kalex on the updated Silverstone on GPBOC6
