With the start of the season getting everyone excited, the TeamLiquid Staff would like to remind you about some of the rules we have in place in this section.
  • If you make a Live Report thread, please make sure you are around to update the OP
    There are obviously some exceptions to this, like if no one has made a thread by the time the event has started and whatnot. But please, if you are going to make a thread days in advance, or even hours in advance, please make sure you are going to be around to update it as the event is going on. It's a real pain when OP's are not updated with results (and more recently streams). If you keep forgetting to update OPs, we'll have to stop you from making them.

  • Standardization of LR Thread Titles
    On October 11 2009 16:29 konadora wrote:
    Shinhan Bank Proleague = [SPL]
    Ongamenet Starleague = [OSL]
    MBCGame Starleague = [MSL]

    Team names:
    Hwaseung Oz
    SK Telecom T1
    KT Rolster
    Woongjin Stars
    Air Force ACE
    CJ Entus
    MBCGame HERO
    eSTRO
    WeMade FOX
    STX Soul
    Samsung Khan
    Hite Sparkyz

    So an example would be:
    [SPL] Samsung Khan vs Air Force ACE
    (with proper capitalization and everything)


  • Please don't come screaming for a stream
    We are not in the business of providing streams, if someone happens to be streaming the games then it will be posted in the LR thread (and hopefully the OP). The staff are getting pretty tired of masses of people complaining about the lack of a stream or that they dont know where to find a stream. This behavior will result in a warning, then a ban.

  • Please keep discussion civil!
    I don't care if Backho is a piece of shit motherfucking cocksucker who has the skills of retarded amputee with aids. That kind of language is unacceptable in LR threads and is bannable.

  • Please don't say GG prematurely

The please keep discussion civil should especially apply to the postgame cluster fucks which usually occur in each live report thread.

Agreed, it's really annoying when the op doesn't update. People post asking for streams and results because they are too lazy to search the whole thread for that info.

Btw can you add in rules for standardization of LR thread titles? It was discussed somewhere in the feedback forum but I think many people missed it.

The list was something like this:
Shinhan Bank Proleague = [SPL]
Ongamenet Starleague = [OSL]
MBCGame Starleague = [MSL]
others etc etc

Team names:
Hwaseung Oz
SK Telecom T1
KT Rolster
Woongjin Stars
Air Force ACE
CJ Entus
MBCGame HERO
eSTRO
WeMade FOX
STX Soul
Samsung Khan
Hite Sparkyz

So an example would be:
[SPL] Samsung Khan vs Air Force ACE
(with proper capitalization and everything)

In an ideal world the people who make ops will put them in the op, hopefully that transpires!

I can undestand why we need the [SPL] tags properly done but i dont really think theres that much of a difference between [SPL] KT vs OZ rather than [SPL] KT Rolster vs Hwaseung Oz

Tons of difference
You can't search KT in TL search so if you're trying to find the LR thread its almost impossible!

I'd rather love to see thread called '[SPL] KT Rolster vs Hwaseung Oz' instead of '[SPL] KT vs Oz'. It looks kinda more professional and I'm pretty sure that in that case I will not miss any of those kind of threads

You cant say GG before they actually call i tbut, it is still acceptable for example..
Skyhigh loses entire army to Reaches Manlots while reach still has a huge army
"this is over for Skyhigh"

thats acceptable though right?
Otherwise i understand everything else.

Yeah, it's just for misleading live reports.

If one of you guys stalk our channels and post the link in TL because you see that we're streaming, we'll stop streaming. The stream is ready when it's ready and it's the streamers who should be posting the links.

I think Samsung would be Samsung KHAN, rather than Khan?

Awesome. I'm really glad this was brought up, because such things always annoyed me when I was following live reports... Un-followed LR threads are perhaps my biggest annoyance on TL. =)

For recommended games, I propose that any recommended games for the first three sets be placed outside the spoiler brackets, and any recommended games for a fourth or fifth set, if they occur, be placed within the spoiler brackets. This allows the OP to designate recommended games without possibly spoiling what the series score is.

I think this needs a bump.

People, PLEASE standardize the thread titles. Like today, it was [SWL] MBC vs. Hite (which is wrong) and a few days ago it was [SWL] SKT vs Samsung KHAN (it should be SK Telecom T1)

Not to be a bitch or anything, but standardization makes everything really look much nicer (and helps making searches more easier)

You don't need to search those because you can find those threads through TLPD

For me shorter thread names are better and more clearer.

Oh can we PLEASE standardise the thread titles?

It's been really good for a while but lately it has lapsed (again).
