I'm glad you're going to keep writing and I'm glad you still like Starcraft and I hope you'll be back. Sorry this is bothering you so much on what should be a happy day, as Life returns to Code S. | ||

So yeah, I'm sure Zealousy isn't the only person who will stop reading the SC2 general section. I stopped reading it a long time ago. It's sad that Reddit has become a more positive place than TL. | ||

I'm of the mindset you can't win an argument on the internet, ever. I counter this hopeless feeling with the idea that things could always be worse, no matter what, things could be worse. RTS is SC2, at least we got that going for us xD | ||

So bye. your stuff is interesting to read. its clear to me the top TL MODs are all Terrans. How do you think Avilo became a featured streamer?  | ||

 I hope to continue to see you in LR threads (though they get shitty from time to time too) and of course I still look forward to your articles <3 | ||

SC2 is in slow decline. but, its still the #1 or #2 platform for any RTS fan to test their skills and watch great games. RTS is basically dead without SC2... maybe that is why these guys are so negative ,there is really no alternative. i'm a beacon of positivity and optimism relative to the "end of the world" gang who basically sound to me like 14 year olds who've become bored of SC2s graphics. | ||

Please don't stay away for too long + Show Spoiler + I have to agree tho, lots of complaining. There are times where I just had it with these forums (especially at the time Kespa players came from SC2, and hearing so many people say esf players were shit in comparison to them). I would feel just so stressed and irritated, that I even couldn't sleep at night thinking about it. I got over it tho. If there's a tip I can give you (take it of you like, ignore if you don't): What I did was read over the whiny/shitty posts or convince myself they are just opinions (which they mostly are). I just avoid every internet discussion. You can never win anyway, even if you're right. | ||

SC2 goes away.. and its basically gone. no one is making AAA RTS games any more. Gearbox is taking a kick at the can... but nothing has been shown of Homeworld yet.

Still does. vast over simplification... and its posts like this that do nothing for the forum... and perpetuate the kind of negativity you are complaining about. you could phrase it in a neutral way: "Avilo put a lot of time and effort into persuading TL to feature him". | ||

People, in general, are going to be relatively unhappy about everything - at least in terms of picking flaws anywhere they can find. It's not just Oracles and Warp Gates, it's also the government, the economy, the state of music industry, sports, every hobby known to man, anything gaming-related ever made, Steam, Youtube, Electornic Arts, D&D 4th edition and the new Tyranid Codex in WH40k. And by the way, in all those things I have rarely heard "negative" complaints that are not rooted in truth. The negativity is especially going to be visible in larger communities, and tones down significantly in smaller / tighter communities. When I joined TL (actually probably a year before that), it used to be a cool place filled with people committed to a very fringe hobby. I remember being intimidated as fuck when I was making my first posts here, and I spent a lot of time making sure I frame my argument properly. Of course that kind of atmosphere is going to degrade as its popularity and size of the community increases. Now I give zero fucks about what someone in a crowd glancing over my posts might think when they read it. | ||
