Are you in the European division? Gizziegod removed some folks who'd been inactive for a while the other day in order to make room for new members. Maybe he mistakenly removed you.

We can alwasy re-add you.

Hi JCotter,

I was recently added to the Euro group. 

Not sure what "inactive for a while means" - given work commitments I'm only likely to participate in about 2 events per month, if a greater time commitment is needed to hold the place then it might be better to let somebody else have it. 

Gizzie might have felt a bit rejected :-), I got a few invites to from him to race while we were in the middle of watching films on NetFlix ;-) READ AS: would like to play Forza but must share TV with mrs :-)

Mr. R

Don't take it as a moment of disrespect that you happened to get "Das Boot". It happens all the time. Not intentional or disrespectful but being in charge you don't always have all the information about a individual at your disposal. I am sure if you were in charge you may have made the same decision. We all get tied up in real life or have issues with Forza...Your Racing Wheel...Your Equipment...Your Internet...Etc....That may leave you disillusioned about racing or anything else in life. We all take a hiatus every now and then for any number of reasons and the end result may lead other people who do not know what is going on is that you may have just given up on racing or taking a sabbatical . Sometimes we just need to recharge and rethink our thinking. Bottom line...Welcome Back!!...Hope to see you soon on the track!coolcoolcool

P.S...ALL is GOOD!!!

As you are new and I don't think gizzie has ran with you I think he has mistakenly kicked you. Will get you a new invite out tonight :-)

wheels said it best. As many people as we have now, it's sometimes hard to manage things. Rather than start a 2nd European division, gizzie & church just remove people theat they've not seen in a while occasionally in order to make room for newer members who are curently active. That doesn't mean we're giving you the boot, we're just letting someone else keep your seat warm while you're away. whenever someone is ready to come back, then we make room for them again. In a perfect world, there would be no member limit to clubs ^ we'd just have everyone in one big group. but this is the way things are set up in the game, so we have to do the best we can with the sytem we have to work with. Welcome back.

Thanks wheels! Also thanks for the reminder to watch Das Boot, it's something that needs to be done every few years :-)

Also, most of Gizzies iniyes are Club sent and he doesn't take offense to anyone not joining in, it's just a way to let everyone know there's a lobby open if they want to pop in.
