Daily reminder that Team Liquid holds the SC2 community hostage. Why even come here, when they ignore the community and do whatever they please?
I will be perm banning people who continue to make these threads. Combatex has an incredibly rich history of abuse, cheating, disrupting players practice, shitting on TL, shitting on players, scamming, and this apology is no different than the others he has given. A few months of good behavior may be all that is required in your eyes - it is not in ours. This is a guy who faked an illness in order to get donations and then came back a few months later with "im fine guys".

This quote acknowledges utter contempt for the feelings of the SC2 community in lieu of their own iron fist. You should be ashamed to support these corporate shills.

Wow, I refresh and this guy got nuked :3
I would gladly keep all the awesome content I got for TL if the rule was that I didn't say anything completely retarded.
Very fair policy if you ask me....

It goes both ways, you know. Why do you even come here if you hate it so much?

As others said, feel free to make your own site and moderate it however you like. "The community" won't miss you.

TL is not the only online sc2 community.
Clan forums and sites have been discussing sc2 and bw for years.
TL provides us with the largest pool of english information and opinions which otherwise would be unheard by the global community.
