And like another poster mentioned, it makes chat sound like a bunch of immature kids yelling catchphrases at their screens thinking they are funny. The more viewers, the exponential amount of offenders. I would be completely fine with twitch removing them entirely

Anybody stupid enough to break up an otherwise sensible post with mindless shit that has no functionality on this forum should do the following before clicking Post: 1. Slap yourself. 2. Ask someone else to slap you. 3. If you still feel like using Kappa in or after a sentence as anything but a proper noun, start back at step 1 and repeat as necessary. For users unable to get the problem under control using the above steps I have a new home in mind for you... the Rust sub-forum at facepunch.com or the Blizzard forums. | ||

A childish humor doesn't thrive on TL nowadays ;; Oh well. You should probally put a link to this in the modnote in the dota2 general thread if you want it to be seen. | ||

I've seen and used C code in forums before... For example, using != instead of something like =/= is not a big deal. And hashtags DO have a purpose outside of twitter, they make a quick reference or point without resorting to complete declarative sentences. For example, that whole last sentence could be summarized with something like: #concise | ||

If I ever get to be Supreme Overlord of TL the 'USA' joke will be completely expunged. Not sure what else would survive my Stalinist purges, probably the 'PvP is skill jokes at my beloved Oz. From there I'd likely hire some Cold War era Soviet propagandists to make Oz images in the style of the time. | ||

I really hope channels starts to just do subscriber only to chat. Just block out the idiots. Make them pay to chat, if they get banned they just cant recreate another account without paying. I actually love the hype that twitch chats can create when not in sub only. It's less about discussing the games and more about a stadium crowd environment. | ||

We users and staff members of other areas are the ones that are allowed to have such feelings as proudness. You banlings are here purely to ban and linger around until your next ban. Feelings are overrated for ones in your position and as such you are limited to having only the feelings of love and hate towards those you ban. To even claim that you feel proudness is to show a wanting to be something more. However, that something is so far out of reach that to claim it as your own would be to be something other than a banling. Think of it this way: Users - Caterpie Banlings - Metapod Other staff members - Other Pokemon Moderators - Butterfree Admins - Mewtwo As you can tell, you are the useless hardening Metapod that only Tackle and String Shot when they feel like it. String Shot - Warning Tackle - Bans of various damage. | ||
