Dear Community,
with this thread I want to apoligise for all things that disturbed somebody of the community. I really love to play this game and I love to try out new stuff, but while doing this i forgot to think about my teammates and the people around me in general. Some people maybe didnt care about my style, but i think some of of the people were really pissed of by me, which i can understand now. I personally think that its ok if a whole clan has its own style and tactics, but while playing with a pickup team my hanging and not defending, my egoistical style in general, just wasnt fair for the other players. If i think about it, it would have pissed me off aswell. But i played this style since the first days of deathball and so i wasnt able to see the problem in it. Im sorry for this behaviour.
For those who didnt know it yet, I tried a new beginning under the nickname "Thor". With this identity I wanted to make a new beginning in my db career. But in the end Davidm found out about me. Iam sorry for trying to fake you with this new nick. But I had my reasons, because i realized that some people play different just because they know that they have to play with me. I realized that while analyzing my playstyle aswell.
All in all i want you guys to give me a second chance, give me a chance for a new beginning and help me to realize it. Everyone was friendly to Thor and I want you guys to be the same to the new riCo. And dont be mad at me if i ego sometimes or accidentaly get back into my old habbits. Just give me a nice advise, because its not that easy to change everything within short time. That is why i need you, the community, to help me.
Yours faithfully riCo
My apology!

Obviously team play is the essence of Deathball. I was just wondering why goal hanging was pointed out.
Not that it matters. I have no idea what's been going on. xD

That fact did not pass unnoticed, but it does hinge on whether or not Germans obey the "no fools past midday" rule. David certainly doesn't (fool that he is 
).
It does seem geuine enough though. Actions speak louder than words however - if rico really wants to be treated better then he just needs to stop hanging so much
fairly simple.

LOL, didn't think of that.
Well has nothing to do with it.
Worrying is that I kinda made him post this, because this is the only sane way for a restart ('cuz fake idents never work).
Anyway, it would be a slow process, and people don't seem eager to forgive. The past, in this case, is huge. A lot has happened, excuses similar to this have been there...so it's not so easy to just say "ok get back and we'll all make <3 <3".
People will react allergic to every little ego thing, so he basically has no chance if he doesn't totally change. But this is problematic, because his personality just includes the ego and superstar-gen, which he can't subpress.
He can for a moment, when he's down, but it will come back.
Well I don't know what to do or say. I have no idea.
There's a difference between sitting waiting for a pass and coming back to defend to "make it happen". The problem I've had with rico in the past is that I've never seen him as a team player - the team has always had to carry him to an extent while he waits upfield for the passes. It's just annoying knowing that you have someone playing on your team who isn't trying hard for the team but merely himself. But in the few games I've played with him recently he's seemed a bit better at that (in 5v5s). It's just a case of not being a cock and if you change your playing style people will eventually notice and change their opinion.
Just put the team first.
Oh, and rico... it's always been annoying to have you tell people "I try in clanmatches" when you haven't in pickups...
