From today, the cold winter seems to be over, and it is spring.

(This is example for a tennis doubles club using 2 courts.)

Years ago when I came to the club for the first time,
someone gave me an advice which seems to be very reasonable,
and now I deliver the idea to all members.

When there are less than 8 people present on a day, it will not apply.
But if there are more than 8 people and 2 courts are over crowded,
then the following will be a good etiquette.

After you finish a game on a court,
even when it seems to you that less than 4 people are waiting for the next game,
please first empty the court with all 4 people together
and visit the waiting room to see who are waiting for the next game,
and then enter the court with 4 people of next turn all together.

After a game,
when only 2 people seem to be in the waiting room,
sometimes 2 remain on the court for the next game
and only 2 leave the court for the exchange.

But there can be more people in the waiting room,
talking each other or hidden in the corner, etc,
and they are forced to lose their turn.

I am not saying that we should make a rule or so,
but it sounds very reasonable, and I post it to share the idea.

Whatever each one do, ignore or follow the idea, it is OK.
But if you think once, it would be good and enough.
If you think against the idea, discussion or refutation are also welcome.

Hope you enjoy tennis this spring, too.

Hope to hear about the situation in your court, club or your country.
Any comment or remark about it is welcome.

If you are sorry that you cannot find a way to reward this post even after steem's 1 week reward period,
please see below replies, I will try to make such a way.

Woff, woff!

Hello @steamsteem, Nice to meet you!

I'm a guide dog living in KR community. I can see that you want to contribute to KR community and communicate with other Korean Steemians. I really appreciate it and I'd be more than happy to help.

KR tag is used mainly by Koreans, but we give warm welcome to anyone who wish to use it. I'm here to give you some advice so that your post can be viewed by many more Koreans. I'm a guide dog after all and that's what I do!

Tips:

If you're not comfortable to write in Korean, I highly recommend you write your post in English rather than using Google Translate.
Unfortunately, Google Translate is terrible at translating English into Korean. You may think you wrote in perfect Korean, but what KR Steemians read is gibberish. Sorry, even Koreans can't understand your post written in Google-Translated Korean.
So, here's what might happen afterward. Your Google-Translated post might be mistaken as a spam so that whales could downvote your post. Yikes! I hope that wouldn't happen to you.
If your post is not relevant to Korea, not even vaguely, but you still use KR tag, Whales could think it as a spam and downvote your post. Double yikes!
If your post is somebody else's work(that is, plagiarism), then you'll definitely get downvotes.
If you keep abusing tags, you may be considered as a spammer. It may result to put you into the blacklist. Oops!

I sincerely hope that you enjoy Steemit without getting downvotes. Because Steemit is a wonderful place. See? Korean Steemians are kind enough to raise a guide dog(that's me) to help you!

Woff, woff! 🐶
