Title: Not a community, but an Attitude
Post by: Statik on November 10, 2012, 01:09 PM
The topic name must look familiar to nlF members (http://nolimitfreestyle.com). But since nlF has nothing to do with league games, I've never thought about registering it as a community.

I'm sure all of you heard about "fair play" in sports before. But since I started to play TUS games, I faced many situations of unsporting behavior and disrespectful behavior of some players.

Today I decided to collect all "fair play" rules in the one place - fp community. It's just my personal vision of WA "fair play", you can help me to improve these rules or you can just laugh and close this thread.

Please, read this page for more info: https://www.tus-wa.com/groups/fp/

I have many ideas regarding this community, but only you can help it to grow. If no one will be interested, I won't delete this tag anyway, because first of all, I made it for myself.

With best wishes.

lol i dont think it has anything to do with fair play if you put people in seperate standings related to your vision of an perfect behavior. sbaffo for example gets muted on a daily basis for insulting, but in my eyes he is one of the most friendly people i have met on wormnet. you could find many other examples. basicly i like the idea of this community but pls stop to pigeonhole people.

Hi Sir-J Statik  :P

I am a addicted for Fair Play behavior. Even sometimes I complaints a lot about somethings what i really dislike, I always try to play following a commum sense. So, if You want my help ae, just invite me. Thx.

Peja, I'm not trying to classify people. If I'll start to explain my point in details, it will take too long time hehe.

Well, since you know about nlF, you proably think it's just a bunch of "cool" ropers. But the initial idea was to find like-minded people, who enjoy warming and like to do unsual moves on rope (tricks). So when you see somebody with nlF tag, you can ask him to play warma with you and get fun.

Here is the same idea. I just want to find people with similar vision and agree to always treat each other well.

The group of people with bad sportmanship is not the kindest idea, but we need some bad examples, at least for start... once again, I didn't want to hurt anyone.

TUS needs a reference to understand some aspects of the game like fair play and other stuff. Maybe fp can help sure.

About Sbaffo... Sbaffo is a troller but He is nice and friendly (at least he was with me).

There is a limit between "be a troller" and "be a stupid".

I guess even You, Peja, when You are only "Peja" and not "FoS`Peja, You are troller but cool.

one of admins insulting ffie by every moment, leader of the greatest competition I ever had a chance to play, WormOlympics. Just because this "fairplay fan" keep cheaters on his clan. Another admin insulting me and trying to get me angry every time for what I hate him. Thats rather facepalm community than fairplay lmao

edit
And yeah. why you put on "Warned" list players like Avi or me? just cuz of trolling? What trolling do with sportmanship? Avirex never avoiding, or trying to get something not fair or maybe just cuz of points. He dont deserve to be "warned" just because you dont like him and dont understand so simple jokes.

I like your initiative about spreading the awareness of fair play to the league Statik, but I don't know if putting people in boxes such as "coward" is a really good thing. It sends out the complete opposite message of what you're trying to achieve. Even worse is profiling Professor as one of the frontmen of sportsmanship (since you put him as admin). Even how much he'd like to be a fair player, his credibility in the community is weak and it gives less credibility to FP.

In Norway the two captains of each team in our Premier League in Football have to shake hands in respect after each game. This is to promote fair play and I think you're in the same point of view with this community/attitude. I really like this idea, but I think you have to make some changes though

Change "get fun" into "have fun", it sounds bizzare.

@impo, I like how self-contradictory it is.

All ideas are welcome, I know most of you have 2 communities and can't join, but everyone can be an "unofficial member", and maybe MI will agree to create a forum for us (there won't be private topics).

I'm not gonna create "fair play" rules by myself, all I can do now is to say what is my vision of it atm, because we need a start point... When all will agree on "rules" and will always follow them, ... actually I dunno what will happen :D I hope for good.

Crazy, Statik did me as administrator because We talked and i showed for him my ideas about the community, such ideas He also has about fair play.

Obviouslly my English is not so good (still waiting Lalo's English Classes xD) and I have conceptions different of yours. I am a very strong man and when i talk about something, I do with persuasion and confidence. If You cant respect it, it is not my fault, mate.

Professor will be good for this community, as much as I like to poke fun at him, hes a good sport and ive always enjoyed playing with him.  I like the ideas behind this community, but i dont think id be a good candidate, i like insult jousting too much :)
Title: Re: Not a community, but an Attitude
Post by: GreatProfe on November 10, 2012, 09:25 PM
thx for ur words, Walrus. You are welcome. even i am being administrator, i wont act like one for now, so i ll pm statik to invite You.

Btw i never said nothing bad about You or FoS. Even when FoS bugged our forums or when tried to troll me. It is just a game, We must have fun always as possible :)

Post by: DarkOne on November 10, 2012, 10:11 PM
Wow, you guys even make a thread about fair play about yourselves? No wonder I'm so inactive in TUS at the moment.

It's good to see a community like this gets opened, because I'm always up for fair play. I'd rather lose an exciting and fun game than win a boring game, but unfortunately when I look at how this thread derailed so quickly, I'd say this community has a long way to go.
Impo, vent your problems with Professor elsewhere, please. This thread is not about you and not about Professor.
Statik, the idea is good, but you kind of go against your own idea when you focus your attention to the negatives (your warning list) - something I might add is a reason why this thread is derailing.

D1, You are right.

Just take easy, We are just starting and new ideas are welcome... We are recruiting ppl to help us no cares if u can join us or not. Feel free to give ur oppinions and viewpoints... We are talking about the best way to enjoy Fair Play community.

EDIT: the suppose "blacklist" was removed for me.

No, Husk. Also drammas are forbidden :)

Post by: GreatProfe on November 11, 2012, 12:22 AM
well, maybe You dont know somethings about me. You criticize me but You dont know who I am. But i want to do my best like always. As D1 said, FP isnt my comunitty. Fair Play is a comunitty about everybody, i am just a little piece of it.

So, if You have some issue about me, pls pm me. I will talk with You with total attention.

I hope you guys help FP to become a good tool for TUS. I am up to do it. And You?

if we can both agree that backseat coaching is the opposite of FP, then I support FP... I wudn't want to support something that is against fair play

Post by: Statik on November 11, 2012, 09:33 AM
I added Worm_gamer and TheWalrus as unofficial members, can't invite them cuz of limit... I hope it means something for you guys.

Husk, I agree about spectators, but don't say "If there won't be a XXX rule, then I won't be in the community". I find this statement kind of anti-FP :) I suggest you to join now and when we'll have a forum you can post your ideas.

NOTE TO ALL: please, don't say things like "omg, I won't join fp cuz Professor is there". You probably didn't get the idea then. We are not a clan, we just agree on a good behavior towards each other (first of all) and other people too ofc :P

ONE MORE CAPS NOTE: what is "good" behavior and what is "bad" we have to decide together. We can refer to FP rules when denying to play with some1 or talk or whatever.

stat if ur community FP supports things I consider against fair play, example backseat coaching, then I don't want to support something that is against fair play

to make husks point more understandable, he refers to a game where an admin of the fp community did backseat coaching  ;D

Husk, I don't support "backseat coaching", especially using non english language. Also I don't like when people are too lazy to send pms, and instead they are just writing in chat using their native language, because only they can understand it lol... But I'm afraid this topic is starting to go nowhere (it was supposed to find interested people who wanted to help), so I'd better go sleep now :D
