Hmm, I would have never even thought about this, as I spend about 99% of my time in BW or Sports, and from those areas TL is as good as an internet forum gets.

Unlike what I hear from this post about sc2 section the BW section is the opposite. Even if I lost some interest in the game I would never leave because of the community there. Aside from the occasional close quarters induced drama it's almost 100% postitive, constructive content. Which in my experience is part of why BW fans have such fanatical loyalty and love of the game.

A part of the bad experience of SC2 forums is actually a lot of BW fans frequently bashing SC2 in the SC2 section. If nothing else, it adds to the "ded gaem" and balance whining crowd. Unfortunately I'm dead serious.

We could all be so happy if we just enjoyed what we want, without telling others what they have to enjoy

I do miss the day when there was no balance discussion thread and balance discussions were just shot down more. It was so long ago, but it was a nice time.

My pet peeve are people bringing up how great BW was... and then they never post in any BW LR thread or do anything BW-related. It's just regurgitating arguments they've heard elsewhere.

The term for them is BW hipster. Never watched BW and doesn't follow the scene, but will happy tell you how the game is superior to SC2.

There's so many good posts explaining your unreasonable and too emotionally-attached state of mind right now. Therefore, I won't bother trying to explain why your blog post isn't very effective, or meaningful if anything.
I don't mean to offend you, but it's really sad to see somebody quitting TL because of so much of "whining". It's as if you've never experienced whining before.

So bye.

The late-game whine is completely OP, I agree. I've been thinking about retiring too, because it seems like everyone uses whine these days and use abusive strats. I thought Blizzard TL would do something about this ridiculous imbalance, but it's clear that no one wants to address this problem. I might just make the switch to Liquidhearth, and away from all this drama.

Zealously has some good points, but I disagree that TL is any worse than anywhere else in regards to what is or isn't decent.

There are a lot of problems with the types of posters in most game forums, and I think that as a whole nobody really wants to be as relentless in moderation as they need to in order to fix it.

If it were up to me I'd ban every single pointless post that was negative without anything constructive. Every "Broodwar is better" post would be banned in the sc2 section. Every "Lol who still plays BW" post would be banned in the BW section. Every balance whine post that was made outside of the designated balance threads would be banned, and the designated balance threads would be heavily moderated to constructive posts.

The problem is that extremely few people, deep down, actually want that. Hell I'm not even certain I want that. They want a place that they can say what they want within reason and they want to be able to argue. They want to be able to troll, they want to be able to hide their trolling to the best of their ability, hoping it gets by the filters of the mods.

In general, this is a problem with the internet as a whole and something that cannot ever be fixed entirely.

You'll be back, Zealously, and you'll see how retarded all this shit is all over again. It's an endless cycle that can really suck sometimes. I'd be a liar if I said the whole of it was bad, or that I didn't enjoy the majority, but it's fuckin frustrating at times and you just need a break every now and then.

At least on reddit people can down vote the assholes who post shit like that. But on TL, we have to hope the mods agree that the post is shit. It has gotten better, but the top two threads on TL general are about a mod and some amazing balance whine.


That makes me think, what if TL had a downvote/upvote function for posts and after a certain threshold it would spoiler the post or something? Just don't make the upvotes count towards some total on the account.

It will be sad to see you go. You, Plansix, stuchiu and a few others always made enjoyable posts, in one way or another. I too have felt what you bring up, and that's why I don't read every thread of SC2 content out there anymore. I don't want to read balance complaints, caster complaints, production complaints, player complaints etc etc every comment everywhere...

I will miss your posts.
