The password for life is: TL


Meh, that might be true for an elite circle of mods and quality posters, but certainly not for me and the majority of users.

Generalizing like that is pointless, TL just has a relatively large user base, so it shouldn't be that big of a deal to come across a tl user on the internet while not engaging in that particular "world".

The password for life is: living

Everyone in the elite circle of mods and quality posters was once part of the majority of regular users. Point is that contributing to the community is rewarding, online as well as in real life.

And also that's not even true, look at how the TLHF thread has helped many many regular users improving their fitness and health. I am sure there are more examples like this.


Don't tell me I accidentally inspired this blog ._.

Just rereading your 2007 one. DMZ, seriously that map

There was one good game on it, and I think it was like the 2nd to last game ever played on it (it actually went to the midgame lol). I'm pretty sure i bloged it...

Yes I did!
To celebrate the brilliance of YellOw here is another game, this time showcasing his godly 2v2 skills. This is Yellow/Sync vs Hwasin/Calm @ DMZ. Now if you haven't seen this game, you are missing out on one of the best 2v2 games of 2007.

All hail and revere the cult of RED!!!

Honestly, though, this was a pretty nice blog to read. :p

I don't really think my knowledge of SC2 is extensive enough to write articles, or contribute too much to liquipedia (Besides maybe updating tourneys/teams). So instead, I just make joke blogs and screw around in photoshop. (Was going to list some stuff I made, but then it looked like a brag )

Maybe I'll start LRing...

=/ I don't know, I believe I have a pretty decent posting history + translation contributions but I still got a 2-day from Mani for really iffy reasons and a warning from Ghostclaw for posting an image meme when it was TOTALLY appropriate for the personal blog (it was in blogs, for god sakes!). I really appreciate the hard work you guys put in, but sometimes I feel that some bans are made in a whim. This coming from a "3k+ poster," so imagine how the new joiners feel... well, at least, this blog should help people feel like we belong here.

If I can be of any assistance, let me know. Oh and if you want to include any pictures/replays/etc please send them to me, so that I can upload them on the TL.net webspace for you. That's much better than uploading them to some free pic upload service, where they might disappear after a while, even if it's only after 2 years or later.


What do you have to say for yourself now, sir? :p

This is the reason that I check TL.net so many times each day. There is so many talented and caring people in this community, trying to contribute positively in any way they can, that you can feel the passion on their words. And although I'm just one more forum user, that inspires me to make better posts and that each word that I write have a meaning.

Thanks Plexa. And I'm happy that your last post wasn't your last post. ^^

ps.:That first TLFE was actually great!

Very insightful blog, however I still fear the mods. Mods have been my enemies on most previous boards (often though cause they cannot take a proper challenge!)

But maybe one day I'll find something to contribute properly to the site. Those tags are pretty baller. ^^

Great read, Plexa's story has always been interesting.

TL is great because of the people who come here and want to be a part of what we do, I love seeing when it inspires other people to in turn do cool things as well

That was a great read, thanks but I'm still going to fear the staff though. Made it this far without a warning through being terrified of every post I write and deleting them more than I post them, so it seems helpful.

I'll admit that your ban probably wasn't justified, basically mani got trolled and banned people when he probably shouldn't have. Mistakes happen, we try to keep those to a minimum though. The warning though, you know we hate memes around here

You're totally on the right track. You have a well above average post history and you contribute to liquipedia
