I've not even watched anything regarding fallout 76 recently and have stopped caring about the game as soon as it was forced multiplayer and somehow without proper narrative elements apart from reading notes (though that might be incomplete information but I've not looked further since). | ||

Maybe reflect on whether it's you who changed more than the site and its moderators have. Fallout 76 isn't looking promising. Might be the first real flop of Bethesda since Morrowind. I've used TL since pre sc2 days. If anything, moderating is more relaxed imo. There were some people who got banned due to behavior over a lengthy period of time, but they were always eventually gonna get banned. | ||

IMO the site should've changed its standards long ago: it doesn't make make much sense being more lenient to people who should know the rules better than fresh blood You'd think it sends conflicting signals to any newcomers of course young people probably don't use dated forums anyway, especially if they are infested with crypto-politics | ||

He's the guy who pissed off IdrA a lot in the beta and early days of SC2 yes.

If there is one thing I really hate from the social media explosion is how much specialty forums have declined. | ||

It's pretty high-tech stuff. They activate on voice command and also can be switched off by saying over. | ||

that would take about 50 mines to kill, so you'd have to plant mines for 8 minutes and 20 seconds straight and then have 100 second window to blow him up before the mines start expiring also I think pudge might get strength stacks from suicides | ||
