Sadly, even though this community is one comprised of mostly intellectuals, the idiots seem to speak the loudest. I'd agree with you, I can't stand reading pretty much anything outside of the strategy forum, and even so I still read the occasional comment that causes me vomit.

This is one of the reasons I rarely ever participate in LR threads, but it is what it is.

I ignore or pity most of them.

I don't blame you. The IEM thread had a HUGE warning on top but people just keep ignoring it. It seems like the banhammers have been pretty slow recently also. I guess even the mods are getting too tired to deal with all the crap.

I read LR threads even when I watch the games live. When there's 3-4+ hours of continuous SC2 sometimes you have to take a break/use the bathroom/run errands, etc and miss key details.

MoonBear you're my F'n hero. I bailed from SC2 LR threads awhile ago for the same reasons you just outlined, but before that I always took comfort in seeing your posts in there, fighting the good fight.

This was my favorite post of the thread. "Bronzie" is probably the stupidest insult I've ever seen someone come up with.

I feel so sad for this to happen, that it has gone that far, I almost never view those threads when ever I can find a stream and just comment with friends etc. But sometimes when I can't watch stream I try to follow the PR, and it is so sad to see all the bad posts and people raging and talking shit. I hope some of the ppl who is responsible for this thinks about their posts in the future.

I agree, SC2 LR threads are awful. I used to participate, but then realized I wasn't actually reading the other comments to avoid brain hemorrhages and just stopped altogether. I especially love every other final of a big tournament which ever race is winning gets their own balance discussion. It's like the balance of the game changes from tournament final to tournament final.

Maybe the solution is to have two separate threads. 1 thread could be "IEM Day 1 Reactions" and another could be "IEM Day 1 Live Reports". Ban out people who use the LR threads to make game reactions/balance discussion/anything non-LR. This would give users easy to access and follow LRs and keep all the reactions (aka flaming and terrible posting in general) into a separate thread.

This is why I stick to IRC during MLG. Moves too quickly for balance whine, and balance whiners won't post when they know no one will pay attention. People with beefy bandwidth who can actually watch both streams (I'm not one of those lucky people ) are often kind enough to post what is happening on them.

LR threads get pretty depressing for any major event days and there is just so much garbage to sift through :<
It's like online stadium where everyone hears your opinion on everything lol - and the actual occasional LR stuck in there (which can get hard for people who can't watch to actually know what is happening).


This is why I don't even try with LR threads. Trying to post during events becomes difficult because of all the filler posts and simultaneous balance arguments going on. And unlike some people I hate posting in a thread if I don't know what the current discussion is about, at that point you are just adding to the useless filler posts. Trying to go back and read them after the fact is annoying due to hundreds of useless filler posts that make it impossible to figure out where the discussion is at.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

I read through the live report threads when i'm at work. Seeing i can not watch GSL live, i have to rely on the LR threads. And i really appreciate everyone who tries to LR in those threads, big <3 to all of you!

But... but... but... Your live reports made lurking far more enjoyable

I completely understand your view, and agree 100%, but that doesn't stop me from being sad that a decline in posting quality has lead to the loss of a valuable poster.

I mean, I even had your (and other LR-er's) profile bookmarked so I could find your posts easily ^___^.

This is really, really sad to me. To be honest, I haven't had a need to read them in a while but I loved the fact that you did them and that there were regular users still putting effort into the little things like that. I started on this site reading every LR and even when I got a chance to watch the games, I would go back and re-read the thread to feel the excitement and enthusiasm again. If you were to do to the same thing today, you'd probably just be disgusted.

I completely sympathize with your reaction and response. Just when it seems like things are cleaning up a bit and people are self moderating themselves (days 3-4) we get a complete mess like today and it's really disheartening. I'm not sure what to say beyond that. I'm still reading through the LR thread and taking care of people who might've slipped through, but even after months and months of this, people still can't control themselves when they post in there.

Sorry to hear you're giving up on the SC2 LRs, but like most people here have already stated, I wouldn't blame you.
Don't give up on us nubs in the LoL forums though...we love your posting way too much!
