cocosoft look at the interview r1ch did and the quotes page for him. R1ch did the vast majority of the tech work behind TSL and has constantly worked on Tl.net to optimize it and keep it running. Without guys like R1ch who have volunteered and put 100s of hours into programming and working on TL we wouldn't have the site we do now. He deserves a fan club just for the fact that he has put in tons and tons of work that we have all benefited from. | ||

Yet I don't see any fanclubs for them (that are needed), so I don't understand the hype for R1CH because he has knowledge of computers that you probably don't have, in the same way that for example, the liquidpedia contributors have dedication for starcraft and writing. | ||

Chill's http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=144820 Hotbid's http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=211735 could have sworn Kennigit did, but alas, I am mistaken. he has a lot of thank you threads though. edit: sorry if the post is a little bit cluttered, I have yet to figure out how to spoiler a quote... | ||

Actually, Chill has a fan club. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=144820 R1CH is also a baller at being a sneaky Mafia. That's definitely a skill I envy! | ||

Today, fan clubs are perhaps one of the most active and well-trafficked forums of TeamLiquid.net. Participation by progamers and entertainment for fans in such threads and placement on the sidebar demonstrate our recognition of the importance of fan clubs to our forum community. It is the very foundation of good forum to have such interaction between fans and notable personalities. Today it is a principal instrument in awakening the common fan to those for which he or she cheers, in preparing him for later and greater fandom and helping him adjust normally to the TL community. In these days, it is doubtful that any notable personality to reasonably be expected to succeed on TL if he is denied the opportunity of a fan club thread. Such an opportunity, where the site has undertaken to provide it, is a right which must be made available to all on equal terms. Is the elimination of certain fan clubs in this forum solely on the basis of "specialness" of individual skills a fair and proper way to administrate this forum? We believe that judging solely on the basis of programming skill deprives certain individuals of a minority group fan club opportunities. Removal of programmers and other fan clubs has a detrimental effect upon individuals like R1CH. The impact is greater when it has the sanction of the law, for the policy of separating fan clubs is usually interpreted as denoting the inferiority of the programmer group. A sense of inferiority affects the motivation of a programmer to code. Removal with the sanction of law, therefore, has a tendency to retard the educational and mental development of programmers and deprives them of some of the benefits they would receive in an integrated fan club forum. We conclude that, in the forum of fan clubs, the doctrine of "separate but equal" has no place. Separate fan club forums are inherently unequal. Therefore, we hold that R1CH and others similarly situated for whom the actions have been brought are, by reason of the removal complained of, deprived of the protection of the laws guaranteed by the TL Ten Commandments. | ||

So you will be Fan 100 I presume. I'll try to slide in as an epic post in the OP, will have to pull a few strings. But you know, troll to troll, I'll make an exception Because Hot_Bid is the hero Teamliquid deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark troll. | ||

A lot of text for "Shut up, he is our programming wizard, so he is the best by definition and therefor deserves a fan club" :p I probably have twice as much programming experience in more languages, but i can still appreciate what R1CH does for TL.net and - as mentioned before - fully support his fan club. He also wrote a lot of tools that - while they sometimes would just take a few minutes to program - everyone else was too lazy to write, so he is still the wizard programmer :p | ||
