Donations, my personal view

[1959nikos]

I honestly don't feel the same way about the league anymore. Personal reasons, but also: we have lost Marcel who did a great job and now Paul barely have time. It took a long time before this season was announced, and some races were announced very late - and missing on isiforums (where we find new drivers), now we are usually ~15 drivers while last season we were 20+ almost every race. No fun races anymore. Some race results are still missing (one of the Brianza races), and of course the two last races (yeah I know Paul will fix this asap), and points are not counted exactly as they are supposed to (we're not supposed to have 'most laps on lead' bonus).

Though we all agree we are having a hard time without Bryan and Marcel around, I think we are doing much better than we thought we would.
Yes, we lost some drivers but we do keep getting new ones all the time.
Attendance at races certainly is not better but it isnt so bad, we lost no more than 20%.

At the same time we have established a honest league that has the respect of RF2 community.
Everytime there is talk about SR4L at ISI forum, all say we are a place where they find pleasant people and clean racing, and I feel very proud I belong here.

Functionality problems (late announcements, lack sometimes of results) should be looked upon with tongue in cheek IMHO.
After all this is a fun league, we are all kids having fun here, not proffesionals building our career.

One point I would like to make, and I believe strongly of that, is that SR4L is its members and its upon them to make sure this place continues or not.
If we feel we are having a good time here, we must support the place constantly, with its ups or downs, for better or worse.

btw, thanks for offer you taking over results, Im sure you will do a great job, lets hope Paul takes the decision to part with his XMLs
