I dont really read the LR threads a lot, but when I couldnt watch I was really thankful for the work that you,MrCon & Co did, so it's quite sad to see you not LRing from now.But then I know how you feel especially about the balance whines and raging, it's gone beyond funny, into frustrating to read.

Dont read live reports anymore, theyre literally frustrating. I just think next tournament mods should all agree to watch the thread simultaneously and any remotely bad post gets a 2week. Do it for one or two threads and people will catch on.

That or give rekrul ban permission for the tournament section only.

Sorry to hear this. I like reading peoples' LRs for when I can't watch live and won't be watching the VODs.

Are you really that ignorant and selfish?

I feel like the quote is taken a bit out of context.
Yes, it's probably a bit of a selfish statement, but ultimately just a question. Also, I do regret not mentioning that I actually have found use for LR threads when I missed an opener or something, so I do see some use for it. But the stuff I see for the popular sc2 tournaments is completely out of proportion, and I wouldn't care to read it.

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.

So, say you're watching GSL and have to go for an hour... Are you actually gonna read 100+ pages just to catch up? Of course you could just be more committed than I can even fathom - usually I just look at the results and go back to the stream...

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!

I guess this is also just commitment that I can't fathom. No disrespect if you actually do it and won't get fired for it, but when I'm at work, I'm at work. SC is my hobby and a passion, but not something I spend time on while at work.


Come on man, theres people that cant watch because their internet goes to shit often (me), theres people that are out of the house but wanna know whats going on, so they check it on phone, maybe someones at a friends house and they just wanna use their comp to checkup on how the games going, theres so many circumstances where people will see moonbear, or probe1 or someone elses LR and think 'thank god for this guy'. I mean theres a whole ton of people thanking them in each LR thread
It wasnt even that you said "I dont find that useful" you called it crap and seemed surprised anyone would read it.
I'm sorry, but that just shows you didnt consider at all that some people might have opinions or circumstances different from your own

I thought I made it quite clear that I indeed had not considered your level of commitment. However, I don't see why you would you get upset by my opinion of calling it crap. I believe this was exacly the reason why OP stopped live reporting - because it's mainly crap. I do understand that some people find it useful, including myself at times (like I mentioned), but what's happening in the sc2 tournaments forum can, for the most part, hardly be called live reporting.

Come back to our subforum where you're truly appreciated.

<3

Yes this :D Love your posting o wrenchperson. Please don't abandon us in our subforum <3

Sad to hear you're not LRing anymore. Personally, I dont even go to LR threads anymore outside of seeing tourney results and recommended games. A lot of the posts in there just make me want to rage.

I think it's really really sad that TL has to post giant warnings on top of like 50% of all SC2 threads telling people what's allowed and what's not. I've only been here since 2009, but I always imagined TL to be a forum where the users all had very respectable maturity levels and were smart enough to use their common sense and dictate what they should and shouldn't say. TL always had its share of idiots, but it just disheartening to see how things have gotten. I mean...giant warnings at the top of every thread? And even then there are warnings/bans everywhere? Really TL? :[

If they were thinking that hard or cared that much, the situation probably wouldn't exist in the first place. Either that or something forbids them from reading the giant warnings at the top of the pages.

I think the essence of live-reporting has been lost to some ppl who just use it as a place to talk about anything they please.

Today was just absurd. There was absolutely no end to the Terran/Protoss and MC/PuMa complaints. Every F5 I made generated another 3 pages of whining. And it wasn't just low post-count users. There were plenty of "experienced" posters as well (maybe not long-time members though; I didn't check).

Sucks to see a true live reporter go when there really aren't that many.

There should be dedicated LR threads where only approved LR'ers can post. Most of them are filled with people either bashing the tournament, the casters, the players or Blizzard and useless "OMG MC SO GOOD" comments.

And godforbid if IdrA plays, LR threads go mad.

Sorry to see you stop, though, it's always great to come back and after a tournament that I missed and read your LR and get a gist of the games. Maybe you should LR in the blogs where you can just edit the OP without others disrupting you or LR on Twitter? (I won't be able to read Twitter in China but I reckon a lot of people would find that useful) Of course, when you want to come back, that is.
Starleague Forever. RIP KT Violet~

it's ok, just LR for BW instead

but seriously, I'm glad you (and others) created a way of LRing games effectively (that we in BW were too lazy / uninnovative to discover ourselves). you don't have to LR anymore, but at least you're a little bit of history now ^^

Very sorry to hear that and after reading your thread I understand your viewpoint and I agree with most points.

Its a shame, that when the community got bigger by the release of SC2, some trolls and idiots decided to join TL and say(complain) whatever they want without any real logic. Of course this doesn't go for everyone, there were a lot of smart and kind people who also joined TL because of SC2. I'm not really sure anymore man, I feel like the trolls population has out-weighted in the internet in general. Thanks for all the work and effort you have done in the past, appreciate it, cheers .

While I totally agree with you. I just, for some reason, cannot stop viewing the thread. I mean I hate reading those idiot comments but what I looking for was comments type of hype. Like OMG OMG OMG. Today I watch Navi vs. EHOME Dota2 on VoD, couldnt catch that right. But I just wanted to open the LR thread to see other people reactions to some incredible moves. After that I was like aww right, everyone finds that as awesome as I do. What I said on the other hand was not the purpose of Live report... So I don't know what happened to LR nowadays.

I wish you have a good time not having to read all the idiot comments and enjoy the games.

I thought people LR because they wanted to just raise their post count up. I thought that was kind of annoying from my perspective, but you're absolutely right about the amount of complaining and whining in the sc2 forums.

You're welcome to drop by BW LRs. Not as much spam just because there's fewer people overall; and we need more dedicated observers again.

Do BW LRs!!! In general, the only thing you have to deal with are Bisu fanboys and Bisu antifans(and even then, some of it's still good-natured)! Could always use another good BW Live Reporter.
