How do you minimize? Certain web browser?

I would just prefer it if the broodwar section was above the sc2 section.

Can I vote "Yes" and "Screw the SC2 forum" together?
|
The bad stuff is inside the threads, not the outside.
edit: I just took a look, my mistake

but in all seriousness- TL you rock! thanks for this update!

|
Oh yes this is an amazing update. Tired of seeing "HOW DO I COUNTER ZEALOTS" x15 when I want to look at BW forums.
|
ahaha it got minimized? oh man lol! good call by the mods there.

I dont get why so many people hate sc2 -.-. SC was good and so far a better completive game but I honestly got tired of it.
|
people dont hate sc2, people hate the dribbling fools that the game has attracted
|
BW will always be superior to SC2.
nuff said.
|
|
Actually I kinda hate the BW strat forum the most. The mods did a nice job making sure most OPs in the Sc2 strat forum were thought out and banhammering spammers. In the BW strat forum half the posts are still horrendous advice given by D- players who think they know more than they actually do .

|
5/5 for the new feature . minimized sc2 forum immediately  But why do I need to enable scripts from Google APIs to use this feature?!? Isn't it easy to implement without them?
|
I love that feature so much, I want to have sex with it, marry it, and raise a family of tiny features together with it
|
Wow great feature. Did not notice this before this blog hehe.
|
Oh, this is sexy. Now if only I could drag and drop groups to move BW higher, but I guess that'd be too greedy.
|
Haha, now days I only come to TL for General and Blogs.
|
I'm trying to find a balance between avoiding meaningless strategy forum threads and bashing SC2 in general... Keep streaming BW Kona!

I think you guys are really, really silly. Don't you realize you've become exactly the old Warcraft 2 gamer who won't let things go? If you prefer Brood War, that's fantastic, but you don't need to keep reminding us why your old game is better. 9 out of 10 people are probably here for SC2, so you would do well to try to enjoy it too.

First thing i did when i noticed what the button did.

I was about to say the same thing. I will admit that the SC2 forum can be annoying sometimes with all these new members, but I don't hate them nor the section. Right now I think SC2 is good, but I still prefer BW over it. After so many years playing SC, I can't seem to enjoy SC2 the same as BW. I still play 1v1's or 2v2's with friends on SC2, but I can't stand playing more than 30-45 minutes of that game. Hopefully that will change in the future.

Maybe I'm just ignorant of the scope of the new SC2 gamers but still I doubt it's really 9 out of 10.. I mean there's still proleague and a good number of ppl following BW. SC2 is a new game so it's going to attract a bunch of new gamers initially, but who knows what will happen once the hype dies down.
|
I'm hiding pretty much everything except BW at the moment in hopes to get me to spend more time on iCCup getting my season goal. Once that's complete I'll make everything visible again.
|
First thing I did when I saw I could minimize the SC2 forum was do so, 5/5 blog. Not to hate on SC2, but the level of discussion on those forums is sub par, and it sucks that they are above the Broodwar forums (having to scroll down less is awesome).
|

Did the same, not like i ever watched stream/followed SC2 forum anyway

There isn't [wasn't] a pro-scene for wc2. The analogy fails.

BW and SC2 are both great games and I really do not see why there is such a strong sense of BW superiority, or why they even need to be compared. I'll enjoy both, although there are a lot of new annoying posters in SC2 atm - give it some time, we'll reform them.

I agree. It's bizarre that this site is supposedly the most popular BW forum on the internet, yet almost nobody here is actually good at the game. Almost as bad are the live report threads where everyone is applying their D rank logic to pro games and always saying "this progamer is so terrible". In BW I have enough experience to know how bad this is, but in SC2 I don't.

Yes they will be assimilated in time .

I don't know, I haven't been to anything not featured since beta dropped.

WHOA when did minimizing come out that is amazing. Just minimized it. I don't hate the SC2 forum (okay I do, but doesn't everyone, deep inside?) but I've never played it much and might not ever play it competitively so it's always been a waste of time to scroll down that much. Yay minimizing!

It's not like this happens that often. Sure you get "bw4lyfe" posts but those are mostly contained within the BW section, and are pretty much akin to "SKT ftw" rather than actual bashing. There hasn't been an anti-SC2 blog in a long time afaik...

I wasn't looking forward to being the new SC2 forum bitch, but the quality of most posts has actually been pleasantly decent. If people just learned to Search first, my life would be fantastic.

yea this feature is awesome. every time i get tempted to vist the SC2 forum I almost always end up either completely enraged or depressed by some of the logic there. if i read the phrase "but SC2 is still in beta! it hasnt had 10 years to develop..." i dunno what i'd do lol.

the thing is, there will only be a TSL3 for ONE of the games. there will only be CSL for ONE of them. ive only got enough free time for ONE of them. it was so much less satisfying in phase 1 of the beta when I was playing beta in my free time and watching BW in my other free time. playing and watching the same game is so much more satisfying and fun for me, and I've only personally got enough free time for ONE game.
also i dont know the exact ratio of people here "only for SC2", but I really hope it's not that high . surely at least half the people here still follow BW to some extent right?
|
sc2 strategy forum is lol, i don't go to tournaments so i don't care about that either, but i keep general open for random announcements i may miss although it's probably the shittiest of the forum.
|
im gonna switch back to BW till SC2 gets LAN
|
I only keep it open to see when the next patch is online and other things like that. I don't know if i'm going to use it that much after sc2 launches. Ive never been to the strategies section but i haven't heard very good things about it. I'll just stick to pro replays to learn new strategies.
|
i want to move bw on top of sc2. i hate having to scroll down even with sc2 minimized. bw needs to stop bending over for sc2.
|
Im glad the coders added a feature to minimize it. It would be even better if it could completely disappear. Just add two check boxes in the profile options "Display SC2 forums" and "Display SC2 news". And according to the poll in OP, I'm not the only one who thinks SC2 forums are garbage "screw SC2 forum" + "Yes" = 75% gg nore. Eventhough I admit it's biaised as people who hate it will be more enclined to vote against than people who are just "ok" with it, it's still a huge proportion nonetheless.
|
I have the General/Strategy sections of the SCII forums minimized. Only keep the Tourney section up so if I see something like 1st SCII OSL I'll be able to click it.

FREEAGLELAND26781 Posts
What's the SCII forum you speak of?
|
What's with the hate?
:/
I love BW more than anything but SC2 is cool too.
Why can't we love both?
WHYYYYYYYYY?

Yeah the forums are awful but I still like the game

Oh come on. The forums will be in shape soon enough. We have Banlings now  Just let them all loose on the SC2 forum and it should meet the quality standards of the other sections soon enough.
Ps. I love the new feature. Didn't saw it untill reading this blog.
