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.

See i think you are looking at this wrong. When you say we partnered with the others like Promods and the buses, what we did was be allowed to use their stuff on our service. Promods is not adding new areas and bugfixes to Promods because of us. They are doing it to fix and enhance their map that a lot of people not on TMP also uses. We are just allowed to use their maps on our service. They are not doing it for our sake. Same goes for the buses, they did not create that for us. We are just allowed to use it on our service. And so its not a partnership where we are expecting them to create a lot of buses and stuff for us, if they eventually do ad a new bus we will probably be allowed to use it but we are not expecting them to create anything for us.

Good for them. But TMP 1.50 is not ready yet. Promods might be, but we are not. Could be ready in an hour or in a week, who knows?

SCS MP is not hosted on SCS servers. When you play Convoy mode you are the host. And so you will have to have your computer act as the server for 128 people while also playing the game. I am not sure how your computer would handle that. I cant imagine it will be good. With TMP event servers the event is hosted on a TMP server and so that server does all the "heavy lifting" and you will only have to run the game as you normally do on TMP. And so this could mean a better experience for you and the people joining your event.

Now i havent seen a video of what happened here so i cant comment on the specific case here, but if you sit in Calais and post a VTC message every 5 minutes its not spam. Spamming means posting the same message or nonsense over and over every few seconds. Every 5 minutes is not spam in my opinion.

We do the best we can. We cant always be online doing moderation, we are all volunteers with jobs and families and what not, and so we just cant sit on here all the time. We try to have a lot of different moderators from different time zones, but we just cant cover everything all the time. And when the servers are full there are so many reports coming in that we just cant keep up. Even with a bunch of moderators on, fighting 4000 people is just impossible. And so the in game reporting system gets just filled to the brim with reports all the time. But we do get a lot more reports done than we used to. With 1.2 million in game reports and we issuing 118K bans it shows that we did at least 10% of all those reports and for sure more than that since not all reports leads to a ban. But if you want to make sure people get punished for the things they did wrong. They record your gameplay and report them on the website, that way you can be sure someone looks at the report and takes action if needed.

Drivers license? Who is gonna examinate all these people? You want a driving test as well? Even if we where to do a written exam only, then what ever questions on there would just be shared with everyone so they can take the test easier. And then who are gonna look through all of those answers? We have thousands of people coming through here all the time, having people taking tests is just not a viable option. It would be way too much work for the TMP team.

Likely this means a goodbye to the CD road. I assume SCS is gonna change the roads surrounding the area as well and so this specific road might be gone or changed. And so this might be the end of the CD road.

I dont agree with that. I have billions of dollars because my game profile is old. I dont drive any worse because of it and i am not bored with the game. And so even if we made server side only profiles somehow, it wouldent remove the trolls or the people driving badly. People will drive badly no matter what. And so this suggestion wont fix anything, it will only limit people and people dont tend to like that.
