Introduction

If you are reading this, it is because you have noticed a change in the usual layout of the TeamLiquid forums. A new section has taken over the top spot. Read on, and I will tell you about it.

Why It Came To Be

It is no secret that one of the main strengths of TeamLiquid over the years has been its passionate and commited forum members. With our ever growing population, the invaluable contributions have increased as well, coming from many different sources. One of the challenges of administering such a busy forum is maximizing the time worthy threads spend in the spotlight, and making them available to those who may not visit as frequently. Our approach to the has been two-pronged.

For non-BW related material, LiquiScoop was designed to bring the casual reader the highlights of the past week. I think it is safe to say it has been a tremendous success, and even someone who visits as much as I do often finds things that I have missed.

However, for BW related material something else was needed. After taking into account the forum opinion on news posting (found in this poll) as well as the thoughts of other staff, it was decided to have a place where the truely special threads had room to breathe and the best contributors would be given a spot in the limelight without the burdens of being staff.

How To Contribute

There are two main ways of contributing to this section.

The first way is to create a great thread. There is a lot of flexibility in what constitutes a great thread, but they all have the characteristics of generating good discussion, giving information, and are a result of serious effort. Some examples would be: translations, battle reports, BW news items, good game VODs or replays, an opinion piece or weekly column, in-depth strategy posts, parody, and many more.

The second way to contribute is to point out a great thread that you feel deserves mention. If you see a thread you believe worthy of bumping, please PM me, Manifesto7, with the URL and why you think it should be promoted. I will be moving threads into the section myself, but I cannot read everything. My goal is to eventually have a user powered news where the best forum items are promoted on their own. This is the first step in the process.

So, if you have wanted to contribute before, but have been unable to find the right outlet, this is for you! If you are already contributing, then your work will recieve greater attention, and I hope it motivates you to keep up your efforts.

Stars

For the people who contribute extensively and have numerous threads promoted into the feature section, we have developed a star system. This system will add stars to a person's profile bar, indicating that they are a driving force behind the forums. An example is below:

mensrea   Korea (South). November 14 2006 03:38. Posts 4726


Warning

This section of the forum is reserved for the highest quality threads, and thus the highest quality posts. I will be moderating this section closely. I hope that it can serve as an example for the rest of the forum on any topic. Needless to say that anything borderline or below will be dealt with.

Closing

I would like to thank Saro for making this happen. He does far more on TL than anybody knows, and it is under his watch that these improvements happen. Also, I would like to thank those people who post so well. It is your outstanding posting that made this a necessary addition to TeamLiquid. I hope you continue to burden us with your excellence.

Cheers,
Mani

I had been looking at the forum index, and keep thinking general forum threads were brood war section ones, without a thought.

I JUST realised that this new forum had been created and moved everything down lol.

Great job.

I didn't know saro was an admin here for a long time, but it turns out he does a lot for this forum! We should turn this into a thank you saro thread instead!

How many stars will I get Mani?

Great idea! You should put a link on the left, under the news would be best imo.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

Are the stars implemented already, or will they be given out starting now?

HonestTea should be a five star general now. Wait, what about My_Digital_Toss? Does that not count as a featurable thread?
