So when I was asked to write the obituary for CharlieMurphy, I took the challenge head on. After much research I knew that nothing anyone could write would equal the awesome power that is researching the man, the myth, the legend himself. I still fear that nothing in the post will do justice to he of many logins. I hope that it is enjoyable none the less. With that said, I give you CharlieMurphy:

Never before was there a more polarizing, sometimes helpful, and always annoying figure. While many of us knew him as Charlie, others knew him as SpoR. His powers were so strong that it took the the Witch King himself, Liquid'Nazgul, to put the final nail in the coffin.
---History---
On the same day that Ne-Yo's So Sick was number 1 on the charts, CharlieMurphy was born in the TeamLiquid community. He shared his birthday with ex-007 Timothy Dalton, actor Gary Oldman, and lesbian personality Rosie O'Donnell. On that day CharlieMurphy posted his first post in a thread started by our friend Day[9] about issues with a Sega Saturn Emulator:

I've heard so much about both games and that they were some of the best airplane type games, never played them though because they are on shitty systems that no I knew ever owned. In fact i think ive seen maybe 2 dreamcasts and 1 sega saturn at Target and thats it. PM me with details plz, thanks 
It is both intriguing and saddening to think that the Sega Saturn emulator was what started Charlie on his amazing journey through TL. During his time, he was always in need of something, whether it be hacks, beta-keys, or just an ear to listen. By 2008 Charlie already ammased 10,000 posts. It is key to remember though that while we know of his main account, and of his SpoR account, Charlie admitted to all that he first started trolling TL back in 2003 and since then was banned on more occasions than anyone can seem to count. In this blog Charlie admitted to at least 15 other accounts including the ever brilliant offer to make love to all of us with the name:
If you dig through TL enough, you will soon find that there are very few threads and forums in which Charlie didn't grace with his presence, but in old forum 18, Blogs, was really where he shined brightest. Whether it was his own creation or commenting on others, Charlie had a knack for getting attention. On one warm June afternoon in 2007 Charlie decided that it was time for him to create his TL blog, and during his time with us he was able to post at least 150 blogs between his various accounts. With awe inspiring titles such as HEY FUCKERS where he whines for a birthday thread, Peeing Question where he informs us with insight about his urination issues, and lol @ my drunken GF's voicemail: where Charlie shares a voicemail from an ex-girlfriend, Charlie seemed to always be on the front page.
Protoss are like the Americans Invading Vietnam. Terrans are like the VietCong they know the terrain and have the advantage. unless you choose a fair and equal battleground.
---Damn the Man!---
As mentioned above, Charlie seemed to have a split personality. Some people claimed him to be a nice guy, while others wanted to kill him. Nice or not, Charlie was prone to the occasional outburst, sometimes aimed towards a race as in FUCK PROTOSS, toward a company as is Fuck You GoodYear, but normally aimed towards other insecurities of life:
---Mod History---
With such a long and complicated history, digging up every mod note would be quite the feat, but this covers it pretty well. My personal favorite bann-able offense came in the TL Hacker Database when Charlie gave us his most in-depth pearl of wisdom with this post:
Pretty sure Jesus hacked. Motherfucker had wine outta no where and he even water walk...
Whether it was fixing a mouse, being MacGyver, calling out FakeSteve, being reminded that he is not FakeSteve, informing us about Muslim justice, or teaching us that his president is black, CharlieMurphy always had the best interests of humanity in mind. Our dear friend CharlieMurphy was even concerned with the sexual health of both males and females on TeamLiquid.
Some bitches' pussy's smell , So your fucked if you go down there and have to taste that shit.
There is so much depth to CharlieMurphy that it is s shame to not cover it all in this write-up. Please friends, come together and post your favorite CharlieMurphy/SPoR moments, and next time you feel the need to ask, "Who is CharlieMurphy," you will come here.
I will leave us with the words of one Rick James: Bitches, come over here and have sex with Charlie MurphyWhile there may be no more bitches for CharlieMurphy, let us hope that his last wish was fulfilled. + Show Spoiler +Sup Son?![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/FShRR.jpg)

Yeah, you know, digging through the CharlieMurphy stuff I realized that while very prolific, sometimes and idiot, most of the time he was just really kind of boring. I did love finding numerous times where we would say shit and Rekrul would tell him to go away or shut the fuck up. What really made him great was the responses he garnered I think.

Haven't been here too long, but I remember him. He sort of reminds me of Torte in the sense that his posts were EVERYWHERE. Except Torte's posts are quality, and Charlie's were.... yeah.
RIP.

Torte's first post were one line garbage, recent months have show a lot better posting.

I know he spammed a lot but some of his posts were just pure gold. I have quite the fond memory of him, actually.

Yeah, there were plenty, I was not saying that, but when you have around 26,000 posts in total, most of them are going to be bland.

I am pretty sure that Torte reads every post. He is like the great eye, ever watchful.

Lol I'm not going to lie and I'm sure torte has seen my old post about him. I used to dislike the guy because of all his spam. But like I said, within recent months I've gotten used to him an he had grown out of his shell and been posting better quality.

I see and read all. and it's the opposite, one-line garbage now. Quality before.

TL changed forever on 11/25/10 =[
esports kills personality

Just so many tears. Charlie Murphy was one of those guys that added something to tl, even if it wasn't a good part of it, he did change the landscape and helped mold alot of people's tl experience.

I do overall agree with this. There are a ton of people like this and I think that is what makes this site great. While a lot of newer people (post-SC2, myself included) are occasionally afraid of the banhammer and tend to post things more benign, people think it is due to the "growth of esports" and "wanting to act professional." I think it has more to do with the influx of new people that don't know how to act properly, don't know how to troll, and are just annoying so the admins have to lay down the law a bit, at least for awhile.
After some time those of us that have stuck around will become more and more conformable and be able to have more of those personalities shine through. We will see.

What if CharlieMurphy is baller?

I doubt it. After looking into baller's posts, the typing style along with the style of being annoying doesn't quite fit.

Hah! I never knew of this CharlieMurphy but reading this post made me laugh so hard. Even jesus hacked....

LoL, thanks. I always love other part of that line, "...he even water walk." I am glad that you enjoyed it and check out this thread for more of these.

I'll bet CharlieMurphy and baller are shared troll accounts of the TL staff.
