The reason tl is so good is because people can't come here with a sense of entitlement, this community is what we make it. All the tools made available to everyone, awesome stuff like liquipedia and the news and all the topics explaining everything, happens because people make it happen. When you get that for free then you treat it with humility and you too want to be a part of it. When you pay for it you treat it as a right and want to shit on it. Still, welcome to the community, enjoy your stay.

Jibba United States22883 Posts July 18 2010 00:44 GMT #23 I enjoyed the video, and not just because of my fancy new icon. I actually lurked for a while before joining, and even then, I felt really nervous when I was making my first post. I've been a part of other big forums, but I really respected this community so I didn't make posts unless I was confident about what I was saying and just tried to make sure there was some content. Things definitely lighten up as you become a vet, though.

brian United States9639 Posts July 18 2010 00:45 GMT #24 Im sure Blizzard realizes how big a market korea is, and it would be smart of them to keep in line with korea's laws as long as it doesnt dramatically hinder the interaction with other countries, which it doesnt. would be terribly stupid for them to completely kill half their markets ability to post in their forums.. just making it more comfortable for everyone i suppose plus everyone knows anonymity sucks ass.

Starcraft is a religion in Korea. @ Gene I see how they might want to make the game fall in line with all of their existing rules to stream line its acceptance in the foreign market. But its foolish to think the rest of the world is just going to comply to something as controversial as Real IDs. @Jibba TeamLiquid forums are great, and the more I post here, and read through the different threads, even the off topic, and general forums. The members aside from light flaming here and there, are very much stand up people. The Koreans can keep their rules. Blizzard can keep their shitty forum. And hopefully TeamLiquid sticks around for another billion years.

Posts that either weren't on topic or funny were deleted. A couple of repeats and the user is banned. Had bad typing or English skills weren't up to snuff? Banned (obviously on a more multi-cultural site as this I wouldn't encourage or expect that). Obviously this made it as intimidating as hell for newcomers but it also weeded out the vast majority of people who couldn't hack it. In real life people learn to shut up (usually) and let their betters talk. On the internet, this quickly falls through and people instead feel their opinions are relevant or needed in the discussion. This leads to tens or hundreds of people basically wanting to hear their own voice (or read their own text in this case) instead of actually encouraging proper discussion or discourse on any number of topics. I could rant about this for hours given the time I've spent on too many forums.
