Yeah this.

New Starcraft 2 players who argue against long time BW players thinking they are on equal grounds pisses me off the most.

Equally, there are those who bash at SC2 without actually trying out the game.


I dont know man.. I was under the imperssion that most of the Starcraft (Brood War) fans would be curious, if not excited about SC2, so most of them should have tried already.. Even if there are people who havnt tried out Sc2, they should be few and far between.

BW folks think they're better because supposedly their game has a bigger skill ceiling (up to debate) Because they think no autocasting, no multibuilding selection, no auto mine, no 255 unit selection limit makes them better players ( up to debate) and bash SC2 because they refer to it as a watered down game.(up to debate)

SC2 has a bigger population so we have a fair number of trolls but to shift the blame to the SC2 community entirely is cowardly

Yeah this.

New Starcraft 2 players who argue against long time BW players thinking they are on equal grounds pisses me off the most.

Equally, there are those who bash at SC2 without actually trying out the game.


I dont know man.. I was under the imperssion that most of the Starcraft (Brood War) fans would be curious, if not excited about SC2, so most of them should have tried already.. Even if there are people who havnt tried out Sc2, they should be few and far between.

BW folks think they're better because supposedly their game has a bigger skill ceiling (up to debate) Because they think no autocasting, no multibuilding selection, no auto mine, no 255 unit selection limit makes them better players ( up to debate) and bash SC2 because they refer to it as a watered down game.(up to debate)

SC2 has a bigger population so we have a fair number of trolls but to shift the blame to the SC2 community entirely is cowardly

Seems some BW Fans just dislike SC2 because it's SC2 and not BW.

Screw you.

I think you can present a better argument than just screw you.

No i can't because it isn't about SC2 or SC2 fans. I am being hostile towards YOU! All you've done is expel a continuous stream of verbal diarrhea into BW forums since yesterday.

Why do you feel the need to be hostile to me? could you so care to enlighten me?


Maybe it's because throughout this thread you've had this huge victim complex

But do you not think the quote "We are hostile to SC2 because they troll us with their ignorance when we just want to play our own game" harbors a victim complex as well?

It's ironic that you accuse BW fans of being the hostile ones when here you are doing just that. The truth is that most BW fans don't necessarily have any hostility towards SC2 - they just don't care about it or they just ignore it, which is what I have concluded from what I have seen.

When BW fans are hostile, it's simply backlash from trolling and the ignorance that many in the SC2 community have towards BW - and then the SC2 fans misinterpret this as BW "elitism". How can you not expect a backlash when people say things like "lololol BW will die soon" or "BW is the past"? Or my favorite - "I hope flash/jaedong/sea switches to SC2". If SC2 is so much better, then it should be able to produce its own iconic figures. Just look at the "MBCGame to shut down?" thread to see a real example of what I'm talking about.

There are trolls on both sides of the fence. If BW and SC2 fans can't get along even after this long, they should just stay away from each other.

A lot of the hostility that BW fans have is simply backlash from the trolling and the ignorance that many in the SC2 community have towards BW - and then the SC2 fans misinterpret this as BW "elitism". How can you not expect a backlash when people say things like "lololol BW will die soon" or "BW is the past"? Or my favorite - "I hope flash/jaedong/sea switches to SC2".

Of course, but in my quotes I have never said anything about wanting for Brood War to die or Pros to switch over. Because I also enjoy brood war.

I mean I think my whole objective is to say we would prefer the Brood War community to be friendlier and more welcoming to outsiders.

Dear Blasterion,
You're boring us. If you're determined to hate the Broodwar community, I don't know what to tell you. I guess keep posting here and you'll get some more reasons to.

Where did you get that notion? No, I do not hate the Brood War community. But I do feel quite a few Brood War fans within the community can say some hurtful stuff when you play both games.

I mean hey man, I hang out with Kibibit and ILOVEKITTENS. I keep all discussion of SC2 out of our conversations. I just think that while the SC2 community should be careful not say somethings that upset the Brood War community, the Brood War community can also give the respect of not upsetting their counter community

You started posting in BW forums yesterday with the false preconceived notion that BW fans hate and trash talk SC2 and SC2 players because their bitter elitists.

It's totally the other way around...

How many times do you see a BW poster going into the SC2 forums bashing SC2? almost never. SC2 bashing happens when an sc2 troll come here.

And I don't know where you see that BW fans are unwelcoming wtf? How many threads there are about people switching from sc2 to bw? And we actually help them.

You're either trolling or basing your arguments on your opinions instead of the actual facts.

It would be so much better to have two different tl sites (in some form), and not one common.
I don`t see that this type of merged system will (and did) produce anything good. I don`t care about SC2 at all, and I think most of us doesn`t care, and SC2 players doesn`t care about BW, it`s just annoying that idiots are trashtalking on every BW topic I`ve seen since SC2 came out. So maybe that is the source of so called hostility?

maybe splitting to two sites is unnecessary how about if we have an option to change calendars to bw only ? and probably an option to turn on bw only relevant news ?

yeah,but then the community news section would lose its meaning,no the community itself would lose its meaning if we forced ourselves to separate from the other parts.

we have our place,and most us don't really care about any other parts of the forum.

If you do not hate the BW community, then why have you made an enormous number of negative comments addressed to the generalized BW community, such as you having no faith in us, or us being elitist jerks, etc? You've made quite a few generalized, insulting posts and it's quite annoying.
Remember Violet.

I have actually suggested the solution to be simply clearer boundaries earlier.

Why not make it clearer where there is to be no talking about BW or SC2, so that if we don't want to read about 1 topic we know where to stay away from.

This way we can still share the same amenities but still go into each thread safe in the knowledge it's not filled with random crap about a topic we care nothing about. Or be prepared, knowing that the thread is in an area where this might happen. The idea of being together but separate appeals to me even if it may seem somewhat apartheidlike.
MSL, 2003-2011, RIP. OSL, 2000-2012, RIP. Proleague, 2003-2012, RIP. And then there was none... Even good things must come to an end.
