"Chart" not "Step"

Sure. Let's also have all the files have doubled BPMS, have one miss mean you fail, and have the speed scroll not be in your control. Also your note skin is changed every file to whatever the author wants.

Also, it can't be synced right. Ever.

Good game rite?

I wouldn't say anything, but a step chart is pretty inaccurate when you're going for FFR because there isn't anyone I know who is crazy enough to play the game,on pad predominantly. Just because it derives off Stepmania doesn't really mean you have to reference it. FFR is it's own game with different options and judge windows. Charts for the two games (Unless it's like Thinking Of You or something like Intersect and BB Revenge ect) are pretty different too.

I usually call them simfiles or just chart or file myself though.

This is a public service announcement to remind people to try to remember to use "etc" and "et cetera" instead of "ect" or "ec tetera". For example, "When stepping a file remember to have it synced, and be fun, and dynamic, etc." or "To be a good stepper you need patience, persistence, a decent musical ear, et cetera."

Turning FFR into an adaption of a click game rather than a dance game.

Note that I never demanded anyone to switch. I simply suggested it and explained my reasoning. I don't care if you don't use the right terminology, it doesn't make me mad nor will I chase after you. But when you act so defensively for something so trivial without any reason you look like an idiot.

I don't care what words you use, but I suggest that this is a better alternative. Am I in any way wrong?

the term that more people tend to use and that does not cause confusion is the actual correct term, not one that is prescribed

...
From the OP:

we need to start making the transition to break away from the connotation of being some adaptation of a dance game

I honestly can't tell if you're just trolling people at this point lmao. For someone who supposedly doesn't care you went through all the effort to make a thread and are still arguing your point. You can care all you want but don't expect anyone else to.

Saying I care about the community doing something is not the same as saying I care about you doing something, nor does it mean I care about everyone in the community doing something.

I did come across as an idiot, yes, but I did so with adequate reason.

if trivial: why suggest it? <_<

there's no sense in making a radical change over something so trivial given that it's interchangeable terminology for the same thing.

if you're going to call someone an idiot, don't call the idea that you're so aggressively proposing trivial -- it doesn't help at all.

You're conflating two ideas. The amount of effort it takes to adopt the change is trivial, but the impact it has on the community and the game is not. I argue that the impact is significant (and even if it isn't, my point that it makes more sense still stands), and therefore if there is no reason to NOT change, then we should change.

Wafles is an example of someone who got heated over a suggestion, even though he makes no argument for why he holds his position. Which is totally separate from the right to hold that position. It's like me advising him not to drink rat poison, but although he doesn't have a reason to drink it, he gets mad at me saying he has the right to do what he wants. (Except obviously the severity of the two issues is totally different.)

Hm, I don't feel I was that heated but whatever. I don't have to make an argument for anything, this is a stupid thread and I'm not so sure anyone cares besides you. Stepping or charting, whatever you want to call it in the end it makes absolutely no difference.

I'm out. Have fun with the elitism and whatnot.
