well can't say I blame you quitting LR after reading posts like that, I am especially annoyed by people that hate on other esports.

Although I rarely find myself in need of your services it is sad to see you stopping. LR are indeed a mess, they seemed to be getting better for a bit but have turned for the worse once more the past few weeks. I try to do what I can by reporting the trash but I think they really need a zatic level purge.

Maybe you could write up recaps in more of an article format if you're still interested in that kind of stuff.

I dont really read the LR threads, but it is still sad to see someone with your amount of posts quit! If only the idiots weren't the majority who posted. I rarely post. I would assume that the majority of the sc2 community doesn't post replies either. Maybe if We did, the idiots would seem less numerous.

The nature of LR threads indicate they will be trash. They are literally the place people go when they want to say whatever has come to the mind the MOMENT the game is over. Rather than filtering their though processes they just let spill with whatever sort of reactionary garbage they have in their mind as soon as the games over.

Remember the MC v July GSL finals? MC completely outplayed July, he had his style figured out, but people instead of reviewing/analyzing the game made the snap call of FFs being op because they didn't like MC winning.

It's sad that LR threads are so trashy, and I don't blame you for quitting them, but they are inherently trashy just because of what they are - a mob mentality mixed with reactionary posting.

As a consolation, go to closed threads and check out the recent bans (maybe last 4-5 pages). You know there has been a major event when those pages are 95% "balance whining" or "terrible post in a LR thread."

First of all, thanks for all your efforts with the LRing, I have relied on your reports in the past, they were very helpful, sad to hear that you're going to stop doing it.

I can understand your reasoning and think it's understandable that someone who does this voluntarily in his free time would not want to put up with this crap, especially considering that you don't receive the appreciation you should.

On the other hand I would however like to add that when you're in this 'business' you just need to grow a thick skin and learn to just completely ignore all the fools, haters and trolls. The moderators here are already working hard but it's just not possible to weed out all the bad seeds. I know that 'just ignore them' is easier said than done, but there is no other way and just giving up because of those guys is the easy way out.

You, sir, said what I thought for a long thime. As a rare poster, but frequent reader, I'm shocked by the low standards people use to write in the LR sometimes. I do not unterstand it. I really do not.

"Just grow a thick skin" is the wrong attidude in my opinion. It's a mystery to me why people on the internetz fall to these low standards in writing. The real life analogy is nice, who whould ever talk like this to anyone?

I guess it's a little too bad...

Interestingly enough, today, I considered writing a blog about how I like LR threads. Yes, I enjoy it a lot when I see fanboy vs fanboy + balance whine. I look at LR threads with a view of connecting with the community, and to know what the community is thinking about during the match.

I don't think LR threads are that much different if you would go to a sporting event, for example. There, instead of complaining about imbalance, they would be complaining about umpires.

I entirely agree with your post. In my opinion live reports should be moderated 10 times more heavily than today. The amount of hate and the lack of reporting is aggravating. I don't mind reading people cheering. That kinda adds to the hype. But people complaining, insulting players, insulting teams should be banned from those threads.

I am sorry to hear that you are quitting your excellent work but I completely agree with you. The live report threads have become really bad as of late and while I used to joke about if we would see a warning but now they are pretty much mandatory. As someone who still live reports ( Well I've been slacking recently ) I pretty much ignore 99% of the posts, possibly reporting the worse posts during a break.

Ill miss you moon but I still have your guide in my bookmarks

I'm sure people have said this already, but it really is a shame.

For all it's worth, these treads are trolled by a very loud minority. If you have the moral strength to ignore them, I assure you that your threads are appreciated by heaps of silent every-day stuck-at-workers who now have tears in their eyes.

It's like when you post an article, as a reporter. Get the news out, most people love you for it. Then just ignore the trolls that spam the "comments" page. You don't even need to interract with them.

In any case I strongly suggest you continue, although I understand your worry and desire to move on.

Oh man It's just impossible to successfully moderate LR threads 100% (correct me if I'm wrong) so trolls have free reign, and then people answer the trolls and it spirals.
