I really don't mean to be rude, it's just that I must be very frustrated, as you might be able to assume. Normally, I can keep my temper, but when I see that bunker killing all my poor drones... well, you must be able to see where my distress is coming from. In fact, if it were the just one time, I would laugh and "gg", moving on to the next game.

But, it's not the one time, it's the third time. In a row (Achievement unlocked: YellOw). And each time you silly Terrans bunker rush me, my points go lower and lower. This wouldn't bother me, if it weren't for the fact that a sub-600 point score on iCCup is just inviting a whole myriad of bunker rushes, Proxy DTs and mass scout rushes (c'mon, thats just mean), and one can only /clearstats YES so many times. Now, I guess it is true that a good, all-round player can defend against any rush, but I'm not a good all-round player, and BY JOVE I just want to play a normal, macro game on the ladder.

So, I didn't mean to caps-locks those profanities at you, it was just the spur of the moment, and I was very, very, very, angry.

This isn't a fair expectation to have when playing the game with people you don't know, there is the option of going to op teamliquid though and asking for a normal game with someone your level there.

As soon as you see a bunker rush (keep your second overlord near your natural), send 4 drones to kill the scv/stop marines from getting too close. Pool should be finishing so make a spine crawler and one queen.

Mass lings and you should be able to stop it relatively easy.

You have an incorrect assumption about how the game should be played. Once you get over this, you will improve as a player.

you should find someone to practice with who can execute a good bunker rush, and just have them do it over and over until you know how to stop it! Then everytime you scout a bunker rush its insta-win!

Well, the more you play against bunker rushes, the better you'll get at defending them. Keep on truckin'

Ask for someone to only play macro games with you or learn how to stop a bunker rush
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
Oh goodness me, FOX tv where do you get your sight? Can't you keep track, the puck is black. That's why the ice is white.
