Hey guys,

Yesterday, I translated from French a shorter version of the osu! Rules I made months ago.

It's illustrated with examples and really easy to understand for everyone, contrary to the wall of text in the official rules.

I used the nickname of some active players in #osu for the examples and specified they're obviously fake at the end.

https://osu.ppy.sh/wiki/Short_Rules
Please tell me your opinion about it, if there's anything to fix or add ^^

I already fixed some grammar errors, but the wiki cache will take some time to update.

Also VeilStar, who helped me with translation, made another version with different graphics.

Actually, I made mine with love and Paint in a full afternoon, and he made his ver within 1h with PhotoShop. *sigh*

I don't especially like all the shaders in Veil's version and spent too much time in mine to decide which one should be used for the wiki, so please choose for me :D

Thanks !

Edit: If you wanna remake it for your language, here's the zip with all the files used :

It's all common sense tho the people who write dumb stuff in chat are usually new and have never read the rules or know where they are.

I can't find anything in the official rules about being racist, negative etc. Maybe you should actually make sure your rules are correct.

The Rules wrote:

Be nice to other players, don't harass people for any reason whatsoever. If someone asks you to stop bothering them, stop bothering them. Trolling, herein defined as deliberate antagonism of other player(s) in order to make said player(s) uncomfortable/feel harassed/commit an infraction, is also considered in this ruling.
Examples of harassment include repeatedly sending derogatory or unwanted messages (forums and irc alike), public slander/defamation of character, or repeatedly highlighting a user on irc. Note that in some cases, such as with public slander, a request to desist is not required. That's something you should just never do.
If you have an infraction you wish to report (including, but not limited to trolling, cybering, harassment), please contact a moderator (GMT) soonest possible. Providing logged chatlogs and screenshots are most definitely welcome as they assist in understanding the infractions in progress. A three-strike rule is usually given for such infractions (warn, temp ban, ban), although serious offenses may be otherwise considered at the moderators' discretion.
If you feel this doesn't cover that --

As a catch-all safeguard, circumventing order and civility via loopholes in the rules is punishable at the sole discretion and judgment of the administrative team. An official rule stating that you should not be a douche should not be required for you to not be a douche, but just in case: don't be a douche. If you are unsure, ask an administrator. You won't get in trouble for requesting clarity.

LOL
The examples are great
I prefer Veil's way a little, as it keeps up with the current style
Good idea to put this in the wiki (hoping people would read them)

Then the rules aren't rules, they're guidelines if you decide to put a catch all "We can decide to punish you because we feel like it, but you probably won't be punished if you follow these GUIDELINES."

No, those rules are still not the same. I reject these shortened rules because they're not even the same as the actual rules. They're only guidelines and should be called as such.
