Your account
The reports you are involved in, your display name and country, linking your LFM profile, and deleting your account.
Account is where you see the reports you are involved in, edit your public profile and link your Low Fuel Motorsport profile. Open it from the menu under your name in the top bar with Account & reports, or with Account on your dashboard.
The races you have entered are on your dashboard under Your next races. To withdraw or to change car, use the race page. See A race page.
Reports
Reports you filed and reports filed against you, with the date, the reason, your role and the current status. Role reads "You reported …" or "Against you". Select a row to open the report and follow it. If a report is against you, you respond to it there. See Reports.
Profile
| Field | Rules |
|---|---|
| Display name | 2 to 40 characters. Shown on entry lists, results and standings, and used as your name on the game server. |
| Country code (e.g. DE) | A two-letter country code. |
Change a field and select Save. You see "Profile saved." when it worked.
When you first sign in through Steam, your display name and country are taken from your Steam profile. After that, changes on Steam don't overwrite them. Your avatar does follow Steam: it updates each time you sign in.
Public profile shows your profile as other people see it: ratings, rating history and results.
Low Fuel Motorsport
If you race on Low Fuel Motorsport, your ACC rating here can start closer to where you are. Paste the link to your LFM profile into LFM profile link (for example https://lowfuelmotorsport.com/profile/12345) and select Link profile.
- ELO starts at 1500 plus 50 for every 1000 LFM ELO above or below 1500. LFM 3500 starts you at 1600, LFM 900 at 1470.
- SR starts halfway between your LFM SR and 3.50.
- It only works before your first rated race here, and only once. After that your rating stands on its own.
- The LFM profile must belong to your Steam account. bdr asks LFM for that one profile and compares its Steam ID with yours.
The card is only shown once your account has a Steam ID.
No Steam ID yet
If you signed in with an email link, the page shows "Your account has no Steam ID yet." You can't enter races without one, because the game server identifies drivers by SteamID.
Warning
The Sign in through Steam button next to that message signs you in to a separate Steam account. It does not add Steam to the account you are using now, and entries and reports stay with the account they were made on.
See Signing in.
Deleting your account
The Delete account card deletes your account. Type delete my account into the box and select Delete my account, then confirm. You are signed out everywhere.
- Removed: your SteamID, name, avatar, country and LFM link. The SteamID also comes out of your results and incidents.
- Ended: your memberships of communities and teams, and your signups for races that have not locked.
- Kept: your results stay, so other drivers' standings don't change. They show a made-up name like "Former driver 7F3K", with no profile behind it.
- Bans: a running ban stays with your Steam account. If you sign in again with it, you get a new, empty account, and the ban applies to it.
It can't be undone.
If you own a community, you can't delete your account until someone else owns the community. Write to the platform team to hand it over. A team you own passes to its longest-standing member.
See the Privacy policy for what is kept and why.
What you can't change here
- Your SteamID. It comes from Steam and identifies you on servers and in results. Only you, the stewards and the platform admins can see it.
- Your ratings. ELO and Safety Rating change only through race results and steward decisions. See Ratings.
- Your team. Join or leave a team on the team pages. See Teams.
