    Objection.


    I was indefinitely suspended and banned. Ivan was indefinitely suspended and banned. You should also be banned. It would be ridiculously unfair if you got unbanned and let off so easily. You know full well what you did, as a former admin, and you knew full well what you were doing is and was wrong.

    Hello all


    Yeah, I reinstated a short while ago. I've decided that I no longer have time for TF due to real-life obligations and all. On top of this, I do not trust myself on here. I don't like the way this server is going and I have decided that ultimately I don't think anything I can say will help, and whatever I do say has the opposite effect. I'll stick around as an op for a while until eventually I may just fade into obscurity.


    I'm gonna ask @"Ryan"#1 and @"elmon"#17 now: if I attempt to reinstate anytime before Jan 2022, please auto deny it. I may say "I have changed my mind" but just disregard it, and deny the app. I don't want to reinstate again. Treat it like a suspension.


    Thanks yall,
    the big bad phrman

    My final comment on this before I leave this thread alone is this


    Work together. Be willing to try new things. If you do not like it, absolutely speak up but give these things a try before criticising too harshly. Most importantly, trust the man that you all voted in, and allow him to trust you guys. Unite and move forward, or argue and fall apart. Goodnight.

      RedEastWood It's no surprise that Ryan decided to suspend all growth for this server, the community's relentless abuse towards him and myself certainly played a massive part in it.

    This is what I am referring to.


    We need to learn our lesson. Windows conceded that one of the reasons he went MIA was because of the intense pressure he felt from TF and it's community. Seth also had a mental breakdown for this reason. We need to look at ourselves before this shit happens again.

    This post isn't meant to incite arguement nor is it intended to be a dig, or whatever to anybody. I don't want anybody to be offended what I'm about to say, and I'm going to keep names out of this as much as I can.


    Recently on TF, I've noticed a new pattern. There are 3 steps: there is a problem (step 1), someone high-up (Ryan and the executives) make any attempt to solve it (for the better or for the worse, not my place to say) and someone doesn't like it (step 2). And, because it's TF, we obviously speak out against it (step 3). When it's phrased like that, it is not a bad thing. I am even guilty of doing it myself. I've also noticed that people, when challenged about their opinion, tend to fly off the handle and throw insults turning what could be a constructive debate into a mindless flame war.


    As a community we need to unite. This does not mean we have to agree on absolutely everything; nobody wants an echochamber and that would be absolutely counterproductive to the working environment on here. However, as a collective we need to start learning how to give/receive criticism better. I'm tired of seeing the same arguement everyday, something to do with a decision the higher-ups have made that somebody doesn't like. Most of the time the arguing amounts to absolutely nothing and just clogs the forum, causing anxiety for multiple people (and before anybody throws "iTs JuSt A FoRuM" at me, read between the lines and look at how certain users react to seeing arguement)


    Simply put, if we continue on the path we are on, where leadership cannot do anything correctly, and somebody will scream and throw abuse, then TF is gonna fizzle out. In the same strand, if we stop giving any input and let leadership run rampant, TF is gonna fizzle out. This means we have to learn to work together. If we take the Skyblock for example, instead of everyone (including myself before anyone accuses me of hypocrisy) mindlessly arguing, we should give actual criticism to the higher-ups so that they know where people are unhappy and where to improve. In the same strand, higher-up should (and as far as I can see have based on conversations since) learn how to properly communicate with us about where they stand. We should also avoid 100 reply threads in which people just repeat the same thing until it loses all it's meaning, especially when people begin to insult the other side.


    Before anyone says "well this is TF drama happens" yes, drama happens. However, drama does not happen this intensely and this frequently. I can tell you, from my 3 years, I've never seen a time where there's been more arguing to this standard.


    Now, that being said, you can disregard this thread and ignore it, but if you do then reap the consequences, I guess. I'm not going to be arguing to defend any points.


    TL;DR: Get along with each other

    ah man people on this thread would've loved Infamas and Zaid. if they think this is 'hiding' intent or whatever then they'd love those two


    Anyway the EMM has nothing to do with suspensions. Red likely reported it, in the same way I can report things and you can report things, doesn't really mean shit. Just because he's an exec doesn't mean he makes these decisions; this isn't Seth's exec team


    yall need to chill

    Hello Caleb, I am writing this today to tell you about how upset you have made me.


    Recently, you have posted on the forum (forum.totalfreedom.me) a post entitled "Committing a crime". Inside this post is a picture of a bowl, inside this bowl there is milk and above the bowl is someone who I can only deem to be insane pouring cereal in second. This is absolutely repulsive and I think you should absolutely be ashamed of yourself. By presenting yourself as this villanous figure, you have become a scourge on this forum, alike to my mortal nemesis called Fleshly. Furthermore, your insistence on doing this to annoy our glorious leader (Ryan Wild) is a testament to your chaotic nature. You are an agent of discord; a devil's advocate and I do not believe that we should allow you to continue to be active on this forum. You have upset me, our glorious leader, and numerous other people who browse the TotalFreedom forum, and you have embarrassed yourself. This is not your first transgression, either. You have committed crimes against God and my eyeballs, with those accursed fan-fictions that your girlfriend made of you. You should offer a formal apology for what you have done, and you should subsequently leave this forum and never return. Nobody is ever as they seem on the Internet.

      Shdwo If you're going for quality for a cheap price, go for any of the Samsung A-Series phones, they average around £140-£200 which is very good for what you get. I recently bought a Samsung A21S, cost me about £140 and it's more than I expected, great camera, great quality, just all-around great things.

    This. I have a Galaxy A71, and it's amazing. High quality camera (Ashaz, I've sent you examples before I think) and runs really well. I'd go for the Galaxy A72 though, that's within your range I think.
