Would like some info on Nascar and accurate reporting??

Question

In order to make this a legal question, I would like to know more on how Nascar Officals get ther credentials??? Are there any special schools ot training??

Secondly..I have been targeted as a "troll" and would like to know why..I get reported and deleted for unknown reasons...I have been a Nascar Fan for over 30 years and thought this was an impartial forum and for Fans to ask and get information and actually have fun with other Nascar Fans....so go ahead and report this question also....I have had enough..Thanks for the TRUE FANS responses I have received and I will be seeing you later.....so Kiddies have some fun now

Answer 1

School is out in some places and when that happens trouble happens. They do have to go through some kind of training Im sure. It probably helps to know someone too to be a official.

Answer 2

There are troublemakers on here that love ruffling feathers.

If you know you was right appeal it.

Answer 3

Stick around dianne m.  Don't let the trolls get you down. Almost everyone goes through this at times.

We need more people like you.

Answer 4

Don't get upset because of all the "kids". This is just what you have to deal with in a public forum. There are a couple "normal" people in here. You just have to filter through the c**p. People laugh at me and look at me in embarrasment when I told them I come in here. Sometimes I feel like i'm in a playground with a bunch of kids. I just try to share a little education and real life experience. People, no matter how educated will always get hurt feelings. Even your upset now. That's what's beautiful about the racing section. Racing isn't for sissys, but the general public always wants to go where they "wannabe". This section is a lot better than the rest. If your a true fan of racing, you will fool no one. Break out of your shell and stay here with us. We need people like you.

Answer 5

If you are not a fan of certain drivers then you'll be reported.I've been watching and attending races since 1960 so I have been around for awhile.

But when I inquired about a job with NASCAR they asked did I have any training in Engineering,automotive maintinace,or certified by th SCCA.

When the green flag drops the best 43 race,and at the end of the race the best that day gets the checkers.

Answer 6

seems like it happens the worst in nascar hunting and fishing

like they target on us

Answer 7

I dint know about schools or training, but if you`ve been a fan for 30 years you have obviously noticed lately that some of them should not have been given a certificate to be a official because of some of the bad penalties and missed penalties.

As for the reporting IDK , I quit coming on so much because it was happening to me a lot with good legitimate questions.

Answer 8

question 1-I'm not sure how they get their credentials or if they have special schools

secondly, there seems to be alot of this going on lately, Rob B was reported like 8 times last night, (he was NOT happy) it has gotten a little out of hand, I have always valued the opinions of those who answer my questions, and I think you have done nothing but answer honestly, sorry you got targeted.

Answer 9

Hey girl! Sorry this keeps happening to ya. Some people are just idiots and all they want to do is cause trouble. (Does this have to do with your question from last night?) Cause I think you hit the nail on the head and that was probally their problem if that's what your talking about!! Don't worry about the stupid people cause there are good people on here that do value what you have to say even if they don't like who you root for!! Keep smiling and don't go away cause that's letting the idiots win!!

Answer 10

Well, you already know how I feel. I hope you stick around, because you have great questions and answers. You made me laugh out loud once yesterday too.

Answer 11

idk I get reported all the time...but mostly in polls&surveys lol...but I don't report others and don't see a need. Just because you disagree with someone or don't like what they say I think it's dumb. And I hate it when people say "troll." Maybe I'm not old fashion but Trolls were little toys I used to play with when I was little and I thought they were cool...when did they become internet sensations??

And when you get reported and appeal it I don't think they even read it because they never would overturn any of mine.

Answer 12

to be a nascar official, you have to take a vision test.  if you can look at a clear racetrack and see debris, but only when the field is too spread out and the audience looks bored, you're in!!!

i don't know why someone might be targeting you as a troll - but don't let it get to you.  remember your audience here (not all of us, of course, but all of "them" ;-)  not everyone here is interested in nascar and get some sort of twisted little thrill out of reporting other people.

i've been on here less than a month and have a stack of violations, two for questions yesterday alone.  most of the time there is no good reason that i should have been reported, but sometimes, yeah, i deserved it.  i had to learn the hard way that "(yawn...)" is not considered a question or an answer, but such is life.  i thought it was implied - my mistake.

but i appeal everything, and take it through final appeal.  and it has worked a couple of times.  and i've got two or four or five in process now.  bottom line, for those items where i truly believe someone just reported me for the wrong reasons, i not only appeal but specifically ask that whoever reported me is advised of the community rules once my appeal is accepted.  hey, couldn't hurt.  and it's not like i can spend the points on anything, can i?
