Myth is going about it the right way too. He's been grinding tons of iRacing to get reps in. He's not very good yet but it honestly is the effort that counts.

Louis-Philippe ayant été apprécié sévèrement par les uns, durement peut-être par les autres, il est tout simple qu’un homme, fantôme lui-même aujourd’hui, qui a connu ce roi, vienne déposer pour lui devant l’histoire ; cette déposition, quelle qu’elle soit, est évidemment et avant tout désintéressée ; une épitaphe écrite par un mort est sincère ; une ombre peut consoler une autre ombre ; le partage des mêmes ténèbres donne le droit de louange ; et il est peu à craindre qu’on dise jamais de deux tombeaux dans l’exil : Celui-ci a flatté l’autre. IV LÉZARDES SOUS LA FONDATION Au moment où le drame que nous racontons va pénétrer dans l’épaisseur d’un des nuages tragiques qui couvrent les commencements du règne de Louis-Philippe, il ne fallait pas d’équivoque, et il était nécessaire que ce livre s’expliquât sur ce roi. Louis-Philippe était entré dans l’autorité royale sans violence, sans action directe de sa part, par le fait d’un virement révolutionnaire, évidemment fort distinct du but réel de la révolution, mais dans lequel lui, duc d’Orléans, n’avait aucune initiative personnelle. Il était né prince et se croyait élu roi. Il ne s’était point donné à lui-même ce mandat ; il ne l’avait point pris ; on le lui avait offert et il l’avait accepté ; convaincu, à tort certes, mais convaincu que l’offre était selon le droit et que l’acceptation était selon le devoir. De là une possession de bonne foi. Or, nous le disons en toute conscience, Louis-Philippe étant de bonne foi dans sa possession, et la démocratie étant de bonne foi dans son attaque, la quantité d’épouvante qui se dégage des luttes sociales ne charge ni le roi, ni la démocratie.

Road cars without huge amounts of aero absolutely can not pull anywhere near 2 lateral Gs. Most "normal" fast cars are around 1G, and most high downforce race cars are doing more like 1.5g at best. The numbers you're imagining don't exist until you get up into the really crazy prototype classes and formula cars.

This should have always been an automatic perma ban from the get go. It's just a matter of time before some moron streams themselves driving recklessly, kills a family of four, and everyone looks back and wonders why this type of behavior didn't result in an automatic perma to begin with. There should be zero tolerance for this type of behavior.
127
u/housefromtn Mar 02 '26
I've made this exact comment almost word for word before. It's 100% gonna happen exactly like you said. There's gonna be some poor innocent family that gets killed by this dumbass behavior and then twitch will make it a zero tolerance thing so they don't get sued for their own liability going forward.
So like why not just skip the step where someone has to needlessly die? It's so frustrating. Twitch should just do the common sense thing already.

u/Prestigious-Lynx5664 Mar 02 '26
I mean I think they'd have a hard time fighting the liablity when something does happen. The amount of clips they can play to a jury is endless, and none of them got banned.

u/worst_bluebelt Mar 02 '26
Exactly right! That's exactly the kind of bad fact pattern that would get Twitch locked into years of court battles.
IMO: streaming illegal acts, including reckless driving, should come with a permanent ban, and withholding of all revenue not yet released.

I feel like Twitch should ban everyone who doesn't wear a seatbelt for 24 hours for the first offence. Then 7 days for a second time and 30 days for a third.
People would smarten up real fast.
Ideally they would ban streaming in cars. But they won't do that because viewership will drop if streamers put up static "brb traveling" screen s, and so will ad revenue.

I rarely get angry. But super idiots killing innocent people is one of the things that does it.

Reckless driving is just barely better but the penalties will be higher than they currently are.

Fucking despicable. She's never been quite the same after seeing the mangled corpses of those people/kids smashed up in their car. Couldn't drive for over a yr without going into panic
People like this piss me off beyond belief. It is truly disgusting, despicable behavior and totally lacking of empathy. You're not just risking your own life. If you crash, youre likely to crush and kill other people too. Families. Kids. Babies. Dogs. Anyone. There is no way of knowing. And once you lose control, there is nothing you can do to take it back or change the outcome.
People who do this on roads with other cars should be absolutely ashamed of themselves
