I don't think things with innapropriate names should be allowed. I don't want Totoca to lock this thread, I just want this thread to be a peaceful thread, for beginners to learn more about the game.

And it’s players and certain techniques/aspects. Also a specific track is not necessary, especially one called we ed cave (insert real name here)

only issue right now is adding members to this if you want a thread of common topics and things mentioned on the forums
could have another part dedicated to members, but seems like you would have to add every popular or remotely well known member to this, and it could become cluttered quickly

Sure! Brilliant idea, I actually added them, because everyone asked, and I promised to add all of them, as long as they're not nsfw or something.

About this thread
This is a thread that contains most Free Rider HD's terms, well-known and unknown. Feel free to suggest some more, since I might have forgotten some, and I stopped playing this game some time ago.

Definitions (A-Z)
Alt - alternate account
Example:
User: My alt is User_2

Auto - an automatic track, where you don't have to press any key, and the track will be completed.
Example:
User: Look at my new auto track!
Example of an auto track -> https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/812299-tubes

Autogen - an auto-generated track, made with a tool. It can be a imgen (image to track), a offroad autogen (generates a random offroad), etc. It's not recommended to post excessive auto-generated tracks, you can get a lot of hate, since you don't need too much effort to make them.
Example:
User: Is this track an autogen?
User_3: i think so.
Examples of autogen tracks: https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/877300-autogen-desc https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/828435-my-good-friends-cat

Blank - to ignore someone or pretend that you haven't seen or do not know them.

Climb - A type of track, that is similar to offroad and downhill, but more elevated, (starts at a lower place than the last line), and is mostly harder.
Example:
User: Hey @User_3, this climb you made is too hard, i've been 4 minutes trying to beat it, can you make an easier track next time?
User_3: sure.

Downhill - A type of track, that is similar to offroad and climbs, but less elevated, (starts at an upper place than the last line).
Example:
User_3: Nice downhill track! +1
Examples of downhill tracks: https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/844871-daily-downhill https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/882776-trickflippin
Feat - 1. same thing as featured ghost 2. same thing as featured track

Featured ghost - a very good first place ghost, which is picked by the ghost moderators. It's similar to the featured tracks, but it's made for ghosts, and doesn't appear in the home page. It can be a trickghost (doesn't needs to be first place, but has wheelies, endos, and some other tricks), vehicle ghost (first place ghost with vehicles), fast ghost (first place ghost) or other. Here is the list of all featured ghosts -> https://community.freeriderhd.com/threads/official-featured-ghosts.6336/

User: Did you saw Anonyymi's new featured ghost?
User_3: yes, i did. it was crazy!

Featured track - a very good track, mostly detailed, which is picked by users like mr..A, Maple, etc to appear in the home page. You can find some information of them here -> https://community.freeriderhd.com/threads/featured-tracks-information.6291/

User_3: Good luck!

Gen - same thing as autogen.

Ghost - 1. a replay that appears when you finish the track, and others can see it. It can be yours, or from someone else. 2. ghosting

User: Look at my ghost!
User_3: cool!

Ghoster - the player who do ghosting, often in leaderboards.
Example:
User_3: cerulean is such a good ghoster

Examples of holdup tracks: https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/908935-bombdash-4 https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/907654-holdup

View attachment 48309
The riders at the top are auto-generated, meanwhile the ones at the bottom are normal riders.

Credit to Symantec for generating it

Jumps - a kind of track, that usually contains slopes and ramps.
Example:
User: i will make a jumps track now.

Moyai - a track trend, where there is a moyai in the track. Famous users, like RadiumRC have made this kind of track.

Non-spacebar - 1. a type of ghoster that does not spacebar. 2. a ghost, that wasn't made with the spacebarring technique.

NSB - same thing as non-spacebar

ORG - Official Ranked Ghosting, a tournament hosted by Totoca12 in 2021.
Example:
User: ORG is such a hard tournament, these good ghosters keep beating me ;-;
User_3: don't worry, it's not that hard.

Offroad - a type of track, with repeated small lines that are connected. they are mostly harder than jumps tracks.
Example:
User: Man, it's been 7 minutes, and i'm not even halfway done on this offroad ;-;
Examples of offroad tracks: https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/923888-sappy https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/837562-scrap-metal

Spacebarring - a strategy used by most ghosters, where they tap the space bar, press the keys they want, then tap the spacebar again. they have more reaction time doing that.
Example:
User_3: should i start to spacebar?
User: I think so.

TAS - 1. a script that adds invisible checkpoints to every tick that passes, and you can revert these checkpoints without having to worry about the checkpoint time discount, but changes the time to a very long time (example: 100:00.00), to prevent cheating. 2. a TAS ghost
Example:
User: What is TAS?
Example of a TAS ghost -> https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/865161-0003/r/tagc

TAS abusing - the act of using TAS, without changing the time. this is considered cheating.

TAS abuser - someone who does TAS abusing
Example:
User_3: i'm guessing symantec_alt_2948782 is a TAS abuser, since he completed Rotate III in 3 minutes.
User: Same. I also think OffroadGhoster is a TAS abuser, he has only 100 points, and stole 12 featured ghosts without even saying anything in the forums.

Trial - a track made as a challenge, that contains small obstacles, like tubes, bumps, and mostly are harder than jump and offroad tracks.
Example:
User_3: it's been 9 minutes, and i still haven't completed this trial

Trickghost - a BMX ghost, that usually contains brakeflips, wheelies, endos, etc.

User_3: i agree.

Other
I hope there is not any thread like this. I made this thread to help some beginners, that have just started to play the game, and can't understand anything, and people who want to know more of this vocabulary.

If you have more terms, feel free to suggest some more, since I might have forgotten some, and I stopped playing this game some time ago, and if i made any mistake, reply and say which one was it.

Thanks for reading!

I also think this is underrated, it has examples, track examples, etc, but for this to actually be pinned and be more popular, it need to make this slightly better, and lots of people give feedback. No problem.

RandomTurtleBoi said: ↑

Click to expand...

Sure, "collab" and "tbf" too. That's a very important one and used often, but i forgot to add

Also, how do i enable "display votes publicly" back? Is it not possible, there is a way but i can't find, or only an admin can do that?

I think i'll actually move the user definitions to a new thread, and make this one only game-related. I'll try updating this soon, it haven't got an update in a while.

Eli - cheesecake connoisseur

spruce · Mar 30, 2023

WIP = work in progress

Azgr00 · Apr 26, 2023

Finally updated it. Any more suggestions i forgot?

Elibloodthirst · Apr 26, 2023

Features are also described as feat, feet or feached

Wayward · Apr 27, 2023

Another way of talking about a forums conversation is to call it a “pm,” short for “private message.”

Example- “I’ll pm you about the collab details.”
