Looking at that old LR thread, it looked like and a couple others were used a lot more. I'm curious, what lead to the demise of this ever-so-fitting smiley?

KOR (who became sparkyz) shaved their heads one season as a motivator and went on a ridiculous tear in ogn proleauge (team leagues were separate in those times iirc).

Good read. It's really nice to hear about your TL journey. I've never had any issue with mods or any staff member but I do admittedly try my best to not be an idiot in any way so that may have something to do with it. =P

This is a good blog, In my time lurking TL there has been very few warnings or bans ive seen while reading a thread that I could not agree with, most (if not all?) mods seem really reasonable people and frankly im quite surprised at the gestapo image that TL mods have in the eyes of some members / communities it seems really unwarranted.

oh yeah and the TL no martyring policy is the best thing ever, I really dislike those kinds of posts :p

Hey. I'm a new user! Well, I've been lurking for a good while, but just finally joined. As a new user I can say this was a great read. The notion of trying to make your mark and do something good for anything, from our little nerdy world to the whole wide teamliquid, is an intimidating idea. But the approach of doing things because you want to do them for people you want to do them for will get you much farther in anything you do in life than doing something for the sake of your e-or-rl-peen... well, go ahead and do things for your rl-peen, but screw your e-peen, or is that the other way around...

Anyway, great read! I enjoyed it and am glad you're a part of our community!

Meh... sure there are nice ones but some are kind of douché-y like Kenniget imo, anyone who would wield the power to mute a person should atleast be ready to answer them after the ban. I don't mind being banned of which I have and I know I take that risk at times because that risk does not outweigh my feeling of the subject I am expressing myself in.

But what I do dislike is when the ban is obviously abit skewed in perspective, understandable, but I don't like it. All I need there is a simple answer when I ask the moderator to further explain the ban. Not being answered a muted person is for me the worst of sins as a moderator.

EDIT: My point is; Yes most of TL admins and moderators are obviously people, and with that comes good virtues and faults. I do not dislike the TL staff and frankly I am even glad when if I am banned for borderline disruptive behavior the moderator just answers a simple question. Such a small geasture and it makes me felt respected as a person. This isn't a democratic forum sure but it should promote virtues we consider inheritly good or just lest it be an unattractive prospect for new people. As in it is in the best interest of the moderators to appear homely for new people, this topic is a good example of a succesfull attempt at this.
So
TLDR: Moderators are people, people act based on emotion and prejudice regardless of position or rank, there are more or less friendly ones and there is no way around it.

I read a bit of that '05 live report thread and I'm fascinated by how ancient 2005 seems in StarCraft/TL measures. Quite heartwarming It feels good to be a part of this community, even as a newbie. Would've been nice to be around in the old days though, haha.
