I'll be real with you. I personally don't care about merchandise. At all. I don't like having mugs and t-shirts with my favourite youtuber's face on them, and TruckersMP isn't any different. I won't buy any of their merch, almost definitely never. But I know one thing: just because I personally don't care, others do. Some people out there love having shirts and mugs and stickers and who-knows-what-else with their favourite brand on them. And that's fine. If those people want this merchandise then I think it's only good that this community gives them that opportunity. To the community as a whole, there's nothing but positives to gain from this. For the people like you and me out there that don't actually care about this merchandise, there's nothing to lose. We don't have to pay for something we don't even want. The group that does like having their fancy truckersmp stickers to stick to their friends' faces they now can. Which, y'know, is pretty awesome for them. Just because you don't care about something, it's only better to look at it positively. I think it's great that other people can now have the joy they get from buying merch, and that makes me pretty happy. So, y'know, maybe next time try to think positive. You'll feel much better as a result too. Capiche?

To add onto what @Nameless Ghoul just said, there's another change in MP where you won't always have to go to services if you want to fix your truck. If you are on the road and have a trailer, you can make use of /fix to completely fix your truck, free of charge. The cooldown for this command is 600 seconds and I have to say it's incredibly useful.

"Start" is the windows start menu, usually in the bottom left. Once you've opened it up search for regedit and hit enter. Then just follow all the other steps and you should be on your way!

Not necessarily. The speed limiter prevents you from speeding up by throttle, but not by physics. You also do not need to unlink your WOT account for this to work, you just need to make sure you're not undertaking any external contracts at this moment in time. If you turned off the setting in the tab menu, are outside city limits, are not undertaking any external contracts and are playing on any server that is not server 1, then it should work fine and you should be able to at least throttle up as fast as your truck is capable of.

You are correct on this. Since you'll use the same save game in both MP and SP, your MP jobs will show up in SP and vice versa. However as stated before by @[ST-LH] The Englishman, if you do a job in MP and switch to SP, you might find yourself having too little time to complete the job. So be careful with that. As for the mods, can you share which ones you're using? I'm no expert myself and cannot help you on this, but there's a Discord channel dedicated specifically to these questions. If you join the TruckersMP Discord (you can do this through your profile) you can ask for direct help there. There's almost always someone willing to help you on this, and if you show pictures of your (modded) truck you'll be able to get a quick green or red light on if it's okay. I hope I helped you enough on this one, have a good day

Make it one report. That will ensure that it gets handled by the same staff member, who will then have a better idea what kind of punishment to give this guy. I'm not an expert so someone else might have to correct me on this, but if you choose to report him for "Ramming" you can add the profanity and insulting in the report as a bonus so to speak. The game moderator will take it from there and know what to do.

I'm pretty sure it's the same reason for all of them. To be part of the team, you need to have been registered for 12 months. That's got less to do with the ranks themselves and more with the community's policies on what kind of people they want to accept as staff. I can only make weak attempts at guessing the specific reasons behind this, but it's going to be the same reason for all of the staff ranks they've got.

Congratulations!

I mean, there's no real reason why this shouldn't be changed. It can only prove helpful, both for the moderators and for the user's sake. It's also a good way to avoid any confusion however I don't think confusion is much of an issue if you have appropriate proof. So, sure. Why not. It shouldn't be too difficult for someone to code in, and it's an interesting enough idea that I think the benefits will outweigh the time and effort needed to implement such a change.
