TOPIC:

I had just started on server 3 alone when 2 other players shortly joined, which was good.

The game had only just begun, I have made a coal line and another player had begun to make a passenger line. The second of the two to join makes a carbon copy of my line in competition.

I know this is not against the rules and competition is encouraged but at the start of the game when you are spoilt for choice I think its just taking advantage.

I guess they just checked to see who was making the most money and copied it as they clearly were not talented enough to figure out a route of their own!
