I have always respected you LR's and i have said it couple of time out loud. When i was at work/school i used your info to read what is happening. Well, i don't blame you - LR threads are total shit fest and they'll stay that way. I can barely keep reading those. Theres no way i could start live-reporting..

Those "ruleboxes" doesn't even matter. None read/follow them or people who could do something about the people who doesn't follow the rules, doesn't do anything.. despite all the "rules" and what not.

Too bad.. we lost one of the hardest working people in the LR threads, because of idiots.

Sucks.

I completely understand though. I haven't ventured into the SC2 section in about two weeks, and it's because of the irreverent stupidity I continue to see in there day in and day out. If it's not 1000 pages out of a 1200 page LR thread being bitching about MC winning over Cruncher with a nooby-DT rush, it's people in the Strategy section shitting on Tyler in the "This is why Koreans think 1/1/1 is unbeatable" thread because Tyler is apparently shit now.

Join the, (I'm sad to say), long line that's starting. We're refugees of a SC2 section that can't seem to stop hating on itself. It's like Reddit's hate seeped in or something.

I'll definitely miss your LRs, as someone who loves the scene but struggles to keep up sometimes, your LRs were a godsend. I get the frustration though, and hopefully that specific part of the fanbase will either mature with the game, or find something new to latch onto when DotA2 comes out. Best wishes!

You were always the best poster in those LR threads, along with the OPs.

Thanks.

Sad day, indeed, as it's nice to be able to find a solid recap of games I wasn't able to watch, but I certainly understand wanting to avoid all the garbage that can go on in the LR threads.

You're a hero among bears...from...uh...the moon? It impresses me that you are not only able to type coherently using your massive paws of justice, but also have to migrate the messages from the moon in the process. (Ok, mostly an odd visual to make myself laugh and pretend like it was marginally funny)

Seriously, though, your presence will be missed, as one of the few sane voices amongst the madness.

Why is it so bad really? What do people want LR threads to be?
Do you want every post to be an analysis with theorycrafting and unit testers?

I have always seen LR threads as a place to vent your thoughts about the games and discuss them. If I think something is imbalanced in that game, I expect to be able to speak my mind about it. If I'm angry with the fact that LoL is taking up SC2 stream time, I expect to be able to speak my mind about it aswell. If I like SC2 and not other games, I expect to be able to say that aswell...

This is a SC2 website after all, and it's only to be expected that people dislike other games taking their time. Imagine coming home after a long day from work, you bought some nice beer and snacks and you're about to watch the finals of an awesome tournament. Then you put on the stream and something else is on and you have to wait another 2 hrs. I'd be pissed.

I'm all for the advancement of e-sports, but you have to understand this PoV.

I quite frankly don't understand why it's such a big deal that MODERATORS need to step in and make a warning above every LR thread.. -.-

Anyway, it's a shame that you will stop LRing, I'll get off summerbreak soon and back into school and it was always fun following your reports.

Because you can sometimes go through half a dozen or more pages without a single good post. Which makes the threads unreadable as it is a bunch of work to read something that should be enjoyable.

I honestly think you have to be very heavy handed with the bans to get the crap to stop and make the idiots go away but it feels like the mods here (1)don't have to time (2)don't want to scare off too many people or be seem as draconian.

Fact is you need big, active, decisive mod teams, because at the moment everyone knows they can shit up threads all day and get away with it so they do.

I love all your responses. I might have to start going to LR threads and shooting down haters for fun. Sad to see you go, it's bad when you have good and bad in LR and then good starts to leave.

i've actually seen your LR's

i think you need to realize how much of dumbasses people are. you're a great poster and you shouldn't let random forum haters get to you.

there hundreds of posters posting in LR threads and only a fraction of them are retards. don't let the retards get to you, that's how they winnnn.

it's like posting in youtube comments. there are a fuckton of retards posting and whether you want to have actual discussion or not is your decision. you can say screw this i'm done posting in youtube comments or try to make it better, your call. hell youtube is a lost cause but i don't think LR threads are.

Thanks for all your LRs . I usually rely on LR to find out what happens since usually don't watch any games live.

Again thanks and sorry to see it end this way but it's understandable since the LR thread is crazy at times.

Yeah, thanks for the LRs. I don't play SC2 actively and your LRs were a perfect way to see what is actually happening ingame

Yet I think moderators should really go overboard for a few weeks with warnings and bans. This will be a lot of work, but people won't learn otherwise.

wow. i'm sad that the first LR thread I posted in (I didn't post any hate) was your last. I noticed when the game started that you were the best actual LRer, and I tried to LR but just failed. I hope I can figure out how you made your posts look so good and so full of information in such a short time, and although I don't use LR threads often it saddens me that you're stopping. I hope that maybe sometime you would come back -_-

Sad to hear, but I gotta admit there's a ton of that going around in most places I travel on the interwebs and it makes me not enjoy things that I used to, including spots of TL. I even quit ESEA because of all the hate around that place and have stopped playing some games because of the people that you are forced to interact with when trying to game online. Seems so odd that anyone that's into SC would act that way but it didn't take long. I stopped going into LR threads a while back and I assume without guys like you around there going to get even worse. Wish everyone would just grow the fuck up and be more respectful, regardless of that old cliche "its the internet dude, what do you expect?".

Sad to see you go. I found that instead of complaining about race imbalances on the forums, you might as well talk about the game and enjoy it. I'm not sure about other people, but if I used a LR thread, I never, ever talk crap about the game, I'm just thankful that someone is actually posting stuff up that updates me.

Hopefully we'll find someone to fill your shoes, but until this problem is fixed... well...
I wasted my nights, you turned out the lights, now I'm paralysed, still stuck in that time...

Hadn't read a LR thread for a while, and thought you were being stupid when I first read this.

But after today's (spoiler for todays GSL ro16) + Show Spoiler +
MMA vs Polt LR, where there was endless bashing of Polt. It really ruined what was a really amazing series. I was hoping the LR thread would help me understand (because I don't play terran), but it was just Polt bashing and Polt defending.


Sad to see you go, and sad that LR threads are becoming so toxic.

I wonder, would it be possible to get 2 threads when an event occures? One for live report, where only live reporters can post (perma ban the others should be easy, and just select a few live reporters before the games) and an other for everyone?

Because you can't even find the LR sometimes in the thread, and browsing through balance whining is boring.

While a good idea, it just shouldn't be necessary in the first place.

Sorry to hear it Moonbear, when my internet would shit on me, LR's like yours were the only thing keeping me in the action T_T

It shouldn't be necessary. It's like giving the children a play ground. Probably would be kinda fun I guess and I could follow the game at work too.
