Could we have a checkbox in our options that allows us to make our Driver/TD attributes visible to our teammates? That would save a lot of time, effort and hassle within a team where these things are considered.
Is this possible?

I would definitely agree, and not just because Iain's one of my minions.

Bring out the whip and order your teammates to post their info on your team forum.

That's fine for a snapshot, but it's a pain for everyone to have to do it after every training session, race or other event. It also requires said teammates to be online at the time you want to see the information. My suggestion would allow easy instant access to potentially important information.

I was referring to free phpBB forum providers.
An external forum offers a lot more features than the gpro team forum.
For example, I don't think you can restrict your own teammate's access to the gpro team forum.

Even if u post the attributes, they are bound to change, so i would prefer to see my teammates driver's attributes.

Back to topic:
Toni, while your suggestion is how it can be done at the moment, Iain's is definitely an improvement as long as it's voluntary.
(about double posts: I am using Opera Mini at the moment, and the network is weak, so there's some auto reloading going on when a page takes too long to load. I'll shut up and go away for tonight if this post gets double posted too)

Whilst it might be an improvement I think there are more important things that should be improved first.
You could always start a phpBB forum and just edit your posts when a driver is trained or a TD gains motivation etc etc.

I brought this up ages ago but and was told it had been discussed before and it was shot down.
Typical of the GPRO forums Steven.

Gotta agree with my man Mark here...
For some it is almost impossible to keep their drivers up to date in forums since they cannot access internet everyday... this would ease up their burden when they do get online.

A damning indictment of the search function!
Still feel it would be a good addition.

Totally agree with this. If you want to see some other person's driver he should post it on the forum (internal or external one)

And what if i do not want my teammates to see my driver? You are imposing something here that is not evident !!
Letting teammates view driver and TD attributes, on site without me posting it is something i do not want, because it is a beginning of letting teammates see other things, and i would very much like to control myself what my teammates see and don't see. I have some formula as most of us do, and for teammates i make something they can use the formula for a season, and no longer, without sharing the formula with them. They do not need to be able to continue with it, when they are no longer teammates. So i like some privacy :)

Totally agree...
This would just reward lazy ones... so my opinion would be no thanks

Why would you even need to know their everyday/minute situation ?
Quite often even start of season - midseason -- or something like that is enough.
They can post in the teamforum when there is some significant change.

You might want to read the initial post again.

He said check box. This clearly indicates a choice on whether to allow them to see your driver or not.

Excellent idea, having sight of my teammates drivers/Tech and them mine would be very useful (The checkbox is a must however.)
