Keep in mind that Team Players actively attempts to poach players from other corps.
To be clear, I don't personally have a problem with such activity, but I know a lot of other corps consider this sort of thing to be sort of "bad form" and if they do it they try to do it relatively quietly. Team Player, OTOH, have no problem simply sending out mail to players saying basically "Your should quit your corp and join us instead." This means they end up with some inroads to failed corps that others don't have. |

Try Hard - by definition is a term used by a player who just got bested by another player who used the reasources at their disposal (either gear, skill, or some other in game source) to beat them. Something the beaten player sees as "trying too hard". Calling someone a "try hard" is an excuse, it is at its base the definition of "QQ". The person calling another a "Try hard" usually thinks they are casting an insult, but in fact they themselves are the one who looks foolish and should be referred to as a "cry baby". Something along those lines :)
I suppose this may be the case when talking about frustrated tryhards who throw the term back and forth at one another, but it isn't really an accurate description of the real meaning of the term.
There's a clear delineation that generally makes a tryhard pretty easy to spot. It IS still meant to be a bit derogatory, but only in the sane way that someone might scoff at a "world champion monopoly player" or the "worlds biggest ball of yarn." To a casual player, a tryhard is simply someone who seems to be trying too hard compared to what the "average" person would deem a reasonable and healthy amount of effort for the results that can be expected. |
