Who are these people! Argh. I used to as a youngster feel socially alienated because I knew allthe memes and internet shiz, now I have no idea and I feel old and out of touch.

I didn't know these existed but I don't think this is far enough. Teamliquid should find every post that uses a Twitch emote and IP ban that poster, everyone knows Twitch chat is the cesspit of ESPORTS on the internet and anyone who uses a Twitch emote has obviously spent some time in Twitch chat so would be a good candidate for a new Team Liquid PreCrime program (TLPCP for short).

I predict this new policy of proaction will decrease mod actions by 50%, which will free up mods time by 50%, which will result in a 100% increased productivity in life (50%+50%=100%) for mods, which will in turn lead to 200% (100+50+50) extra income for mods.

I just googled kappa.
I've been wondering what it meant ever since I saw RollPlay WH40k. So.. it's a face. I've actually seen it on twitch. What does it mean, anyway?

Twitch chat is the cancer of eSports. It's as if you placed 100 immature 10 year olds in a room, made them spectate and just shout random nonsense. I'm not surprised

I guess this is a question of total freespeech and how much censorship of that is tolerable to create a better forum for all of us. Not sure if I agree completly, but some of them got kinda annoying.

@Eufouria: LOL I almost gifted you TL+ for that.

I missed this post and now I got my first Warning ever and I'm sad.

Regardless, I approve of this change.

I don't know what a twitch emote is. I don't recognise any of those examples in OP. Was that rainbow sheep thing one?

Didn´t even know this was an issue, so I wasn´t spending way too much time on TL, after all.

I'm pretty sure people who participate in Twitch chat are a tiny minority of the overall viewers. It's not cancerous for anything, the feature just doesn't serve its purpose (arguably it doesn't even have a purpose) except on smallish channels.

Praise KBB's Big toe and Waxangel's left ear, thank you for this, so annoyed that I started seeing people writing twitch emotes in their forum posts.

I wish the opening post could link to some examples of offending posts.
Maybe I'm oblivious, but I had no idea this was happening or what they actually look like in action.

While I love twitch's emotes, it is understandable to ban them here, altho I've never seen one on TL (have been away from the sc2 forums for a while).
