The skill ladder kinda confuses me... Is that just like what ARS was supposed to be (people racing with people of equal skill)?

I believe the skill ladder is starting out as a beginner/novice, moving up to Intermediate, then maybe Amateur A class, then the Pro's.

Going back to the roots of rF is always a good choice im glad is was a choice and im glad we got a pole thank you very much rF! also i wouldn't mind JLV do the 2015 sx tracks i really miss them and with a couple changes with maybe something like traction on them or whatever else i think they could be a lot of fun.

1.Teams really don't matter when showing it in a race
2.I do like the concept of licensing as long as there are events for each license
3.Free for all no licensing isn't going to help the racing due to try hard top c class guys making the races and messing up with his inconsistancy when a bottom A rider whose laps are slower but more consistent could have top 10'd
4.ARS is cool and if it could manage to stay around with less bugs than it had then it would be a great way to race in your spare time
5.Didn't really understand that whle skill ladder thing
6.Podcasts are a fun idea but I feel it would go the way of your livestreams, there for a few weeks then flop away
7.Custom series and OG series are what I'd love to see
8.If you can get your live streams consistant then keep them but it's not that important
9.Prizes and non racing things are unimportant to me because I suck at everything

But that's my opinion

You do know right that JLV can use the same jumps that the 2014 tracks are and make them more similar to those, but with the consistency of the old JLV tracks.

Not only that, anyone else could make the same jumps and stuff that JLV has used.

The main thing I would love to see come back is the fun factor. 2012 seemed like an awesome year for everything. The tracks were the best, lots of other events (SXO, WI, LRS), there were streams every race, and it was pretty professional as far as the amount of competitive teams. I don't care about teams, but would love to get back to that stuff and bring the fun back.

I'd also like to see the old qualifying style come back. It's much more relaxed. You can just go in a server anytime and have fun with it. I think the new style made it seem like a chore to qualify instead of fun.

How about highlighted teams on the RFG website, I always enjoyed that when there was a team page.

Funny you mention it, most the guys I play with get most mad when idiots take them out for no reason... wait, aren't you banned for doing just that?

SXO,WI, and LRS were mostly (if not all) made by me with the same style as the 2014 SX tracks... yet those get bitched about?

And there would still be more competitive teams, except JAG has 3/4 the community on one team. Wait... aren't you on that team too?

I agree with this.

Now don't go bombing my house, just wanted to make sure you know that you are part of the issue. It isn't just you, but if everyone looked in the mirror we have a chance to change how much fun it is.

Bring back live streams, consistent tracks (I know challenging new tracks are fun, but I think some people quit racing due to every track being different which required more practicing to stay competitive), old qualifying system, amateurs/pros, licenses (maybe simply Amateur, A class, and Pro license), and finally Sweendogggggy!

Get rid of anything that has to do with a prize. Then no one will bitch when it becomes about fun. If they still do, then sign me up when you get a 21+ series.
