    I am truly, fully sorry

    Hello dear citizens of ffr, i'd like to make this thread as an apology in regards to the following terrible thing I've said in another thread, that was so abhorant and unwaranted that I offended everyone.


    Originally posted by icontrolyourworld

    Also if you have not, grab Fullerene shift, dump parade, and hi19 packs. All of which are filled with amazing content, I highly recommend!
    I didn't mean for this to be so offensive, I was trying to point out that the OP wanted hard files to play, that's all, but I can see clearly now that I was quite a dick about it.

    I'm gonna be upfront in that this post really fucking bothers me, because it feels like you're implying "artistic and fun files" cannot "push physical and mental boundaries" but are just mere "casual easy peasy lemon squeezy MA art fart color theory rainbow lownps 8th note string butter clutter stuff."

    Now I understand, that probably wasn't your intent, but damn does it strike me the wrong way.

    PPS: Hi19's packs are a must. Emerald Sword and Fury of the Storm from pack 1 are great for what you're looking for.
    Personally I feel like there hasn't been a pack made that combines both artistic and stamina stuff. Maybe xay's new pack is that, but that's probably the only one. There are oddball files here and there that can be very challenging and artistic but by the simple nature of files getting harder I feel the definition of artistic files fades into dump files. I'm sorry if I came off the wrong way to you.

I'll give up trying to write up an argument about how frustrating that post is, and will just agree with GD by also adding that I managed to get into D5 by playing files I actually have fun playing. I didn't have to subject myself to playing files that are only hard to be hard.

    I'll never get behind that mentality. You can step all the generic-ass jumpstream you want, icy. I won't play it, but you won't see me give you shit about it. I'd expect you to do the same to those who try to craft more meaningful simfiles. There's room for both.
    By using only FFR and/or D1-D5 files on stepmania you can climb to D5. In the same manner you can climb to D6 by playing D6 files. The OP sounded like he was ready for more hard stuff and I didn't mean to discredit easier files so thoroughly, they are integral to progression for all players.

    I may or may not continue to make files, you playing them or not playing them is fine since I make them for myself and other people enjoying them is a bonus. I can also agree that there is room for both the generic and the art files. If anyone limits themself to what they play that's their loss.

    Absolutely bmah, I respect you enough not to reply to anyone that is offended. I hope that by dropping everything effective immediately things won't escalate.

    I mean at the end of the day, ur all casuals for not playing negative reverse -2.0x rate songs using a custom modded backwards scrolling anyways, so...
    I agree let's just play to have fun!

    I like smashing my keyboard both in accurate rhythm but also to mass jumpstream files, idk both are fun. This little rivalry comes up once in awhile and it's just so counterproductive to creativity in our small scene. I'll reiterate what I've said before, both can coexist, and if you don't like one style there is nothing forcing you to play or step in it.
    I'll reiterate from earlier in this post, easy files are neccesary and fun and need to exist just as badly as harder files. I agree that they can and should coexist, it's part of the game, and what makes it fun. You are absolutely right also that no one is should stop you from having fun the way you want to have fun.

    There has always been some kind of stigma against non-JS files, and I was told that it's simply because people can't be bothered to score well on them. It is easier to make measured improvements on straightforward JS files. And as such, those files are quite often what is advertised more by way of posting scores, making packs exclusive to JS, etc.
    A lot of work has been put into stepmania content wise.

    I feel like there's just as much a stigma against JS files as non JS files, but it doesn't really matter that much, people will play what they want to play. I was a dick to try and deter people from suggesting easier stuff (which I might add are still fun files). I do feel there are equal if not more packs geared towards easier still fun good files.

    I've replied to you in the thread once but I'll do so again here. I'm sorry that you feel this way about me now. However I actually feel terrible knowing that you would throw me to the curb over 1 negative comment, especially since it's not even directed to you and was a mistake I'm willing to admit I made. I'm sorry to have offended you so greatly.

    Originally posted by choof
    nah, fuck that yo. you would think that someone such as yourself who has years and years of stepmania experience would be not nearly as closeminded as this
    I mean, shit, if you had said "yeah that's an older approach to charting and not entirely relevant anymore" then that would be fine I'd agree with you but don't think that just because you're fucking icyworld, you get to talk down on charts

    like, c'mon dude, you even went through a phase where you made "casual easy peasy lemon squeezy MA art fart color theory rainbow lownps 8th note string butter clutter stuff"
    (this was choof's reply to my willingness to drop the whole thing)
    This escalated quickly, and I do have a few things to say about this.
    Although I am sorry to have made the comment that I did which wasn't particularly directed towards anyone, I feel like you have some sort of extra beef with me outside of it considering I only said one thing. If you want to insult me, you can go right on ahead, I probably deserve it.
    But here's the thing I don't think just because I'm IcyWorld I am any better than anyone here. I do not even think my charts are better than anyone elses, it's subjective and I prefer to play mine more, but I do not think other peoples files are terrible old or new.
    Now the fact, as you said, I went through a phase of making easy files should suggest that I'm pretty retarded for making the comment that I did earlier in this thread. Because that is an accurate summation of it. If I could take it back I would, but here I am in the open, willing to admit I was wrong. I can't undo what I said, all I can do is offer my sincerest apology. I want us all to get along just as badly as anyone else, there doesn't have to be toxisity such as what I've so clearly put forth.

    Originally posted by icontrolyourworld
    I'm sorry to have made such terrible comments, I'm clearly in the wrong here. I do not feel easy files are bad, they are integral to progression in the game and should be played by everyone who has the chance to do so especially considering the incredible experience a good amount of them have. If you all feel I'm such a terrible person and would like to exile me, go ahead, I'm happy to have been a part of the community.
    This was my initial reply to choof, which while not directed entirely at him but instead everyone that saw my shitpost. I do however feel like I'm probably not welcome on ffr anymore, so again if you all want me gone, I will leave.

    MooMoo_Cowfreak said it best: it's really about having all kinds of files coexisting, and not about putting down one type of file for another. I'm not just talking about easy files; I'm referring to any style that has generally received stigma in the past (artsy files, even 6k files in general, and so on).

    It's great that the OP wanted some more JS to practice on, and I suppose that is the growing trend. Let those players have at em. There's just no need to do a further disservice to steppers who step other kinds of files. All people are wanting is general tolerance, that's all.
    Thank you bmah you're a beacon of light to me, a truly inspiring person. Forgive and forget. I agree with moomoo as well.
    I did not mean to do so much illwill to ffr, and can fully agree that that there is no need to put others down.

    It's a good thing your opinion doesn't reflect the majority because this is an abhorrent thing to say. Files that require a strong amount of stamina and speed can also be creative.

    EDIT: Also like the others said, you could always play these files on higher rates to improve MA and speed further.
    You're right in that I am wrong to have said such things. I'm sorry.

    I figured with 1 apology it would be enough but I can see that it is not with this post here. I was completely wrong leonid, and I'm sorry if I offended you too.

    All in all, I intend to learn from my mistake and become a better person, not to make toxic shitposts like that in the future. I understand if I crossed a line I should not have, that would make you all hate me no matter what from here on forth. I didn't want this to escalate to the point that it did, I wanted to drop it early on in the thread, but it just keeps going and I feel like a shitty terrible person. I admit fully that I was wrong to degrade easier files with such a deragatory comment, and I honestly at the time didn't intend for it to come off like that. What is done is done, I don't feel welcome here anymore, but I'm happy to have been here for so long, made as many friends as I did, and contribute to a game that I love.

    One post that literally made a man make an entire thread about the people he offended over a fucking genre of stepcharts.

    Fuck, that's rough.

      is expressing my inability to create a creative signature an act of creativity in and of itself?

          you're entitled to your opinion though. the wording was a bit fierce but don't expect people not to defend their views. just maybe close the back door with some sarcasm if you're posting something a bit ignorant


          I hate dumpstream files for reasons but others love them and that's all there really is to it. I don't think you needed to make a huge thread about it lol.

                            the amount of criticism you got over really what's a meaningless comment (which may hold some or minor truth but not as little as people make it out to be) shouldn't make you leave the community. you're siiick, i play your packs and files
