It depends on where you are. If you drive on the CD road the speed limit is 60km/h for most of that road, so driving 60km/h is not a problem. But driving 30 might be a bit low, Its half the limit of the road and so thats a bit low. I would say 40-50 is fine, just try to pull over if you notice a lot of people behind you.

You also got to remember that if you actually did brake the rules. Like if you know you did something wrong, there is really no reason to appeal asking for evidence unless you really want to watch it, cause it will just be a waste of your time as you have to make the appeal and a waste of the moderators time as they have to upload the evidence and answer the appeal, just for you to stay banned. The only thing it will change is that you can watch your ban evidence and nothing else.

First of all, the ferry system seemed to work fine as far as i could tell, but i agree that some of the areas where not quite big enough to handle the traffic it would have to handle. Which of cause gave some queues, but thats nothing new in regards to the CD road. And yes the service station music is annoying, but that is what is funny. And no the entire map was not limited to 80km/h. The limiter was what ever the limit was on the road. So if there was a 60km/h limit on the road, you could only drive 60km/h. This means that there was areas of the map that where 90km/h limited cause that is the limit on some highways. And so the limiter just matched the speed limit on the road you where on. I thought that was quite nice. Seemed to generate a bit less chaos. But overall i thought it was some good April Fools fun.

You get to it by doing External Contracts. This means you need a World Of Trucks profile (https://www.worldoftrucks.com/) and connect it to your ATS and/or ETS2 game. When its connected you can select external contracts from where you select which contracts you wish to do, and in the external contracts you will then find Christmas cargos. When you pick one of those up, you set a waypoint to one of the teleport areas that will then show up on your map, and you drive out to one of those and then you get to the winter wonderland. Its not an area made by us, its made by SCS software.

Yeah this is probably not gonna happen, as Smalley says, this can be abused. You could report someone parked in a parking spot for blocking and see them get kicked because they are parked for x minutes. Some people would just go around reporting people for blocking just to see them get kicked. There is a few auto kicks in game that are there when you dont turn on your headlights and for AFK'ing for longer periods and such. But having people getting kicked automatically because someone reported them is not great. Also because how would it detect when they should be kicked? If this got implemented people could just move some wheels or turn the wheels or something so they dont get kicked. So its probably not gonna be a thing.

I will also say this. If you have done stuff wrong or if you know you have done stuff wrong there is no reason to appeal. If we can clearly see you hitting someone or overtaking a queue or any other rule braking, there is no reason to appeal as your appeal will likely be declined anyway. And we dont make exceptions with stuff like this is my first ban or i have learned my lesson or you had a malfunction with your wheel or mouse or the like. Unless you have counter evidence that can prove you did not do what we see you do in the evidence or you can prove that some other factor was the cause of this, then there is no reason to appeal. That you are sorry about what happened is nice and we appreciate that but we dont need you to make an appeal to say that. The appeal system is for when you can prove that you did not do what you are banned for. That you dont agree with the ban wont get you out of a ban.

We dont own any of those mods. And so we dont have the rights to use them here. And even if we did get the rights to use them, they would constantly need to be updated to work with any new updates. It would be a lot of work and we have more important things to be working on that adding mods people would like to have. You should partition to SCS Software to have tandem trucks, maybe they can make a deal with the truck companies to be allowed to use them. But we are not likely to ever bring mods like that to the server.

This cant be done. Or it could be done but it would not be a viable option for TMP. Essentially the Winter mod works because it is only cosmetic. It just changes colors and puts snow on the road. It wont affect me if i dont use winter mod. And so its not a problem. And its added to the server by us. And so everyone that downloads the winter mod from us can then see it. Non Official cars/trucks/mods cant be used cause they will not be recognized by the server and so the server would not allow you to use it, and so would be disabled it. But even if we could allow it, every single mod you use would have to be added to the server for everyone else to see. And every player playing also needs to download all the mods onto their systems in order for them to see it. Cause if they dont have the mods they cant see them and so that would cause issues because they wont be able to see you driving anything, Even if the game would make a placeholder truck/car instead, then what would be the point of the mod if you are the only one that can see it. And it would just be a mess with hundreds of different mods everyone would have to download every time someone else decides to use a new mod. SCS Convoy mode is the same. Everyone has to have all the same mods in order to play together. And that would just be a big mess for TMP.

I have used Firefox for many many years. And i have no intend on stopping anytime soon.

So no matter if you are driving a truck or a car. You cant overtake when there is oncoming traffic, and you cant overtake using the grass or emergency lane, and you have to keep an eye on the road. It dosent matter if you are streaming to twitch or somewhere else. Just because you are a content creator, you still have to follow all the rules, so if you crash into someone while reading chat and someone reports you, you are likely to get banned. And if you cant control the car with your wheel or for some other reason, then dont use the car. Being a content creator does not exempt you from the rules.

And you should have put Volvo/Renault as Volvo owns Renault Trucks. " Renault Trucks is a French commercial truck manufacturer with corporate headquarters at Saint-Priest near Lyon. Originally part of Renault, it has been a subsidiary of the Volvo Group since 2001." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renault_Trucks And so i did not choose Renault cause it was also with Iveco and i am not a big fan of Iveco. But normally i would choose Renault.

And to add to what Warrior says, even if we extended the time the reports is on the server, they would still run out and disappear. On the website that never happens. By making a report on the website you are sure your report will be looked at. And we also use the website report system to train moderators, by making them web report moderators before they might become in game moderators. And as said by Warrior, the server just dosent have the space for that many reports. Each report takes up space and if they would never be deleted in game or stay there for 7 days, the server would run up in the thousands of reports very quickly and it would just never end. If you are suggesting this because you make in game reports and want them dealt with, i suggest you record your game play instead and make web reports.

Sorry to tell you this, but we do not aim to act cool or better than others. And if you slide and hit someone then you where probably driving to fast for where you where driving and so you crashed someone and ruined their gameplay. They did not ask for you to hit them. And so what you called accidents was caused by something you did. Often it has to do with speed. Driving too fast for a corner or something. Or maybe its you overtaking where you should not be doing so. Or maybe you did not keep enough distance to the person in front, Or something else. In most cases the accident was caused by something you did or failed to do. And so if you had maybe been more careful in your driving you might never have caused that accident. And yeah you get a ban for that kind of accident. But you know what? Learn from that accident, look at what happened and make sure it dosent happen again. And then that week ban will be the only ban you get. There are people here that has been here since we started Truckers MP that has never been banned. It is possible to drive on Truckers MP without causing accidents. Plenty of people do so. And calling it abuse because you got banned for causing an accident because of something you could have done differently and then avoided that accident, is simply wrong. We do not intend to abuse anything. We are not jerks that do this to feel better than others. We are just trying to make sure that the people who drive here can do so without having people crashing into them by accident or intentional.

I have no idea. My guess is that adding back the 150km/h would lead to more accidents and so more reports and so more work for us as moderators. But we dont actually know if that will be the case. Its likely, but as a moderator its our job to deal with it and so we will just have to. Its what we signed up to. I agree. But its apparently what the community wants. And so we will have to see how it goes. Lets hope it does not end too bad, for everyones sake

Yes Beacons especially affects other people. But i do think you can add beacons there. But the problem comes when you have too many beacons. Then they start to affect everyones FPS negatively. And So i do not suggest you put a lot of them. Yes which might be totally empty, so if you want to play with other people you would need to be in all the chaos of Sim 2. At least that is how i think it will end. It was how it was back in the day.
