I just had a conversation with Prauspect. I will forward the details here. I know usually this kind of stuff is done in the crew chief chit chat but there may be others here who raced with Prauspect that want to interject.

I felt like I was played dirty yesterday, but the racing was amazing. Unfortunately, Prauspect made me his victim on the last race and wrecked me before the finish, which made me come in 12th instead of 7th, but it doesn't matter. Thanks for inviting me Apex I didn't wreck you I held my line and you missed the checkpoint. You never crashed

Yeah Prauspect was out of his car shooting at people until Apex ran him over lol. But after that my race was over I stopped to give him my truck when I was in 8 th place at the time. And yeah... He was shooting at me, so I flattened the f***er! If I wanted to kill anyone I'd have shot them with a rocket. I was shooting to get people's attention to yellow flag the race because after 2-3 laps of not having a vehicle because someone quit and I got kicked out. I had been asking for a solid 5 minutes to get me a truck and restart but by that time it was the last lap and no one gave two shits. But when it happened earlier in the race the race was stopped instantly. I was also taken out multiple times while in contention of the top 5 but who's here fessing up to that... No one

But after that my race was over Yea I was out of my car shooting because I had no damn car until you gave me one on the last lap. By then 2-3 laps had passed after I asked for a solid 5 minutes to yellow flag the race because someone left and I was ejected from my truck. If I wanted to kill anyone I would have blown you up not shot randomly in circles trying to get someone to notice... Hey he's not in a car maybe somethings wrong we should yellow flag the race

yes, later on in the night, after FACEOFF, Prauspect, Weeble, Bukit and myself did some racing trying to discover some good tracks for the trophy truck since Weebs wants to start a new series with it. I invited Prauspect since I had not encountered any issues with him throughout the course of the night. When we got into this mini-PL, Prauspect was still just as he had been with me in FACEOFF: trouble free. We had a good night of racing and a lot of laughs when he didn't have a Sterling GT so used a Roosevelt on one of Weebs' tracks. Prauspect has not been an issue whatsoever for me. Actually, I very much enjoyed racing with the guy on Friday.

Frankly, I find it quite difficult to judge anybody based on this past Friday night being that there were so many immature people in the lobby, it was hard to tell what on earth was going well versus what was going wrong. The vast majority of people in Friday's lobby were from NODO and didn't race particularly well and also had a very difficult time following directions. The lag was atrocious and many people ended up DCing as a result. If anybody from Friday night would want to try and join crew, they should go through a standard playlist with a group of us so that we can truly understand what they are like. Friday night is a perfect example of how NODO screws things up.

As long as it's not an issue in the future I don't have a problem with him. Prauspect start reading the event threads/rules/cars being used so you have a chance to get the car yourself. I've had that happen to me before too where I borrowed a car and then the person lagged out leaving me standing on the side of the road, but I didn't start shooting guns. It sucks so I've learned to have the car needed if possible.

Good point Banther. I will always try to get the appropriate car for the event. Even if means selling something else for the cash. I hate pitting so not being able to respawn pisses me off. Lol

Shooting guns in a race is the wrong way to get people's attention, not sure how that would get anybody to stop. If you dont have a mic, you should probably consider getting one.

I knew I should have made a clip of my view as I was pulling up close to give up my truck. You were still fucking shooting while I was standing next to you. Not jumping in the truck to race.

No more recruits in events... Or non-crew members, for that matter. Not on Fridays, anyway. I have no problem with him going through an extended initiation peroid however.

I wasn't there. But.. I just wanted everyone get a chance to tell their side before I make any assumptions. However Apex, Lifty, & Rocket are respectable men in this community and I will respect their decisions.

I'm not sure if Prauspect will see this, but frankly, stopping your vehicle right in front of me isn't holding your ground, it's just being idiotic. Your racing wasn't right know matter what stance you have in this conversation, and I don't like your racing as much as I expected from this community. I personally think you don't yet deserve to be in Night Shift, but I can't make that call

Friday night is a perfect example of how NODO screws things up. I completely agree with this statement. The lobby on Friday was honestly shit and I was only there for half the first race. But as Rocket said, I didn't have a single bit of problems racing with him later friday night. I think we need to get him into a real racing lobby and see how he does.

Agreed. I didn't expect so many people anyway, just as much as the rest of you
