Nicely written. Tbh if TL ever went corporate, it would lose a lot of its community and individuality anyways.

not necessarily, the companies that go corporate tend to be run by people in it just for easy money and the like, of course stuff run by people like that isnt gonna turn out well. if teamliquid went corporate and kept the same management, and they were self aware about it, it wouldnt have to turn out the same way.

Thank you for this. I get frustrated with the signal to noise ratio of the forums on TL sometimes but it's easy to forget that TL really is an amazing thing. <3 TL and the staff that make it possible

In the way of purposely trying to make profits at all times, not all corporations would do this, I suppose. I should have put "corporate" in quotes. I'll probably edit this post b/c I know I'm not making much sense lol.
EDIT: Yeah, I guess IdrA extended what I initially intended to say.

This boils down to when Bazzei felt like he was being insulted here on TL.net over some racial remark. TL.net told him it wasn't and to calm down. Radivel, owner of SC2GG, invited Bazzi to his site and to work (for free) for him during Bazzei/TL.net negotiations. TL.net interpreted that as a slimey backstabbing thing to do. Hatred ensued.

That's the VERY watered down version of that story.

The other thing was the whole Klazart thing and when he quit (banned? Can't remember) TL.net over people telling him he was stupid/bad SC player/bad caster. Everybody acted like a little girl and held grudges. I thought Klaz should have accepted the advice or ignored it however he wanted but retaliating like he did was not the way to go.

There might be a few other things I'm missing.

Of course I did the offensive GG against RaGe during our Showmatch and then proceeded to fail at everything. By the way I think Rage and I should do our own showmatch. Bo7 and see if I have improved at SC at all. ^^ Oh yeah. I did mention this to DV during the Showmatch as well. I don't think he likes me either. Scroll down a few comments on the link.

Oh and WC8 said he could hack TL.net and I don't think anybody has really forgotten that either. Good times. Good times.

We have good history too. A few of us from SC2GG did a few casts for TSL and other small events like when Chill did a Bo7 vs Cholera.
So wait? I'm bad? =(

lol idk what's wrong with me today.
You contradicted what I said, because what I said was wrong and I really meant to say something else. You said what I meant to say, that things would stay the same if in the right hands. It extended what I said, which was that things would go bad, except that I made an over-generalization. .....let's just drop it because I'm confusing myself ^_^
