This community segmentation will give birth to a certain question.
Will we ever stop bothering visiting tl.net only for the flavor threads? Whatever it is you people want to see there, certain tv series threads, sports, general discussion subforum, tl mafia, korean music, anime thread, you name it.
My guess, is that yes, eventually liquiddota will surpass tl.net simply because of the vastly superior dota2 crowd, that seems to be getting bigger by the day btw.
We can start recreating our favorite threads over here and make this our new home and not just an offshoot of tl.net.
No one likes having two separate tabs open when we can have one anyway.
So go ahead and create a Game of Thrones thread for starters, let's see if we can make this happen.

if they would just link the general section of TL with LD / LH I don't think I'd ever go back to TL tbh

User count doesn't actually seem to be growing much ATM.
~1300 active users was about on par at site launch, and TI qualifier games weren't actually airing at that time. If it weren't for initial launch novelty or TI hype, user count would probably be below 4 digits.

If we created a Game of Thrones(TV non book) thread and a Walking Dead thread I doubt I would ever go to tl.net except to check an occasional WCS result which I could just as easily do through liquipedia.

Why we need the General / TL community / Mafia / Sports and games sections be shared across all 3 sites so we can just choose which site we have the most interest in

Agree with if they link GD/Other Games I won't visit tlnet again, I'll be all liquiddota for tl related sites. That and liquidpedia.

This should be a bannable offense.

Sounds like a good idea to me. I rarely visit TL.net now that LD has launched, and integrating those threads so we can access them here would make it much more convenient.

already stopped visiting main tl pretty much
even tho its sad
like everytime i was bored i skimmed through tl looking for something interesting
now i dont

I actually just logged in here, been browsing TL and posting there. To be honest, even though most of the old TL users are here, it's just not the same community. I don't see myself removing TL from my browser activities....until they link the community thread, blogs and other games section, at least (and the Sports thread, Soccer World Cup almost upon us).
Gotta admit though, LiquidDota looks just so much better than TL, what with smooth design, responsiveness, awesome avatars and team icons and a better even and calendar sidebar.

He's probably just looking at the active user number from time to time that's located below the left side bar

Only reason I've been to TL since was because I started typing TL out of habit...
I'm sure they'll work on linking the general/community shit between the 3 boards.

If only they'd make a calendar/stream app, Steam-style, with links to LR threads on TL/here.

Could you expand a bit on that? I'm trying to improve my programming skills and that does sound like an interesting project!

I don't go much to TL.net now. I mostly posted in TL+ and occasional LR threads, but with this page my sc2 passion took another blow.

What I mean is to have essentially the right bar of this website as a standalone app, which opens a stream viewer when you click on the stream name, or a browser window when you click on the LR link (could be the default browser, or the app's own browser). Of course it should have the Starcraft stream as well.
Bonus points if it can run minimized in the system tray and pop-up events that the user selected from the calendar when the time comes. Well, one can dream
