Sadly, sometimes it feels like that's all the skating fans in the world that there are any more
If GS were to give out awards, what would we give?

Can doris clarify again that this thread was not created by a Patrick fan to promote that Patrick has won this award or that there are indeed Russian FS fans who do like Patrick? Obviously this has made some people's blood boil and are trying their might to discredit the forum.
This thread was copied by me from the Patrick Fan Fest thread, because I thought other fans would be interested at how another forum made awards.
And I thought the little bears were way creative and as cute as could be, and other fans might enjoy them.
I loved the Tessa & Scott bears and the Meryl & Charlie bears!
OTOH it is very interesting to read what the FSO forum is all about, too, so I'm glad it got posted.
This is not the fault of the Patrick fans. It's all mine.
Thank you Doris,
I have been at FSO since 2001, and it has always been Russian speaking forum, but not Russian forum.
Some new Russian fans when they first tine registry there, think it is place for Russian fans. But it is not. It is international forum in Russian language. Similar to GSF been in English.
imho
When I knew almost nothing about figure skating world, I thought Golden Skate Awards were coming from here. GS could give out awards for creative, innovative programs of the season, or Good Sportsmanship awards for skaters who demonstrated true meaning of athleticism and sportsmanship in the season! Oh, this would be great!
There is an international skating forum in Russian language? That's great! Russian language is not as popular as English and French. I guess the majority of the members there must have Russian background or some sort of connections with Russia even if they don't have Russian nationality now. Fifteen new countries have been formed including Russia before and after the fall of Soviet Union. Some people there were really hostile to Russia.
chuckle on the hostility in this thread. It's just a small appreciation from fans.Russian speaking fans (to be precise
) are so passionate and dedicate to this sport!
Thanks, STARushka for bringing it to GS!
Thanks! Great choices from this forum!![]()

I don't think that is GS in Russia. Golden Skate allows people to talk freely. While on FSO, some of my friends were banned because they tried to advocate Rus-skaters there. They even didn't troll, but just argued. I thought general Russians don't have Freedom Of Speech on FSO..

Thanks to Doris for creating this thread devoted to the FSO awards.
Otherwise, I would have never seen the photos of the bears and their wonderful costumes, which were very enjoyable. (Although I like Chan, I can't say that I look at his Fan Fest thread regularly.)
Also was interested to read about the FSO forum and its awards.
Request to any of members of FSO:
What is the link for the FSO thread specifically about the FSO awards and bears, please?I can read Cyrillic, but the particular thread was not obvious to me from the FSO home page.
Благодарю вас/Thank you.
The latest thread is here: http://forum.fsonline.ru/index.php?/...o-awards-2012/
There are also 2 or 3 threads in archives (with voting and discussions), if you need links - please say and I'll post them
In case someone interested, there are links to FSO awards from 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 seasons.
And forum thread with discussions and photos for FSO awards 2009-2010.
