It is good when tl.net gets new members, but if they are assholes then they should be banned without hesitation. However, if even an old poster posted 30 straight posts in one thread he should be at least temp banned. | ||

So totally ive bin here since 2001/2002 And i keep my tone down nowadays, since that got me banned, so everything I say, I say in a controlled way  but yeah, ive seen some bad posts, just thought you kind of went on about it in a bad way, and like hmm, ur posts are godless, yeye but whatever, hf! Do you see the terrible irony and incredible self pwning in this comment? PS: Nvmplatapus, do you remember the trivia threads. After that, how can you POSSIBLY say you are a bad poster. PPS: It seems like threads like this come up from time to time, I've been here.. what about 2 years and I remember them when a lot of people that are considered "quality" posters were newb posters... Just a thought: ever wonder if 2 years from now BloodBath and eV will be making threads like this? Its funny to think about. | ||

It does seem a bit elitist and rude to make the claims he did and that some have agreed to, but no one can deny that things have changed a bit here and the quality of posters has gone down a bit. It's very hard these days to find truly intelligent and worthwhile discussions here. For so long there wasn't a better place to visit. You could learn so much about the world here. But for the past 6 months or so, it has seemingly disappeared. People are constantly making worthless posts or threads, and more or less saying whatever comes to mind. This is a big part of why for awhile I only participated in WarCraft 3 discussions here. There was simply nothing else of value. Even Liquibet was frozen for quite some time. That is truly a shame. I dunno what specifically happened, or what should be done, but either way it's sad that things have changed in the way that they have. | ||

I nominate you as a moderator if you promise to follow Rekrul's past and strike down on stupidity. | ||

Or if you are replying to a lot of quotes aimed at you (say in a long thread where you have some catching up to do), though 30 is a very large number (+ copy pasting your replies into one big post is better) so yeah this isn't really likely to happen. I hadn't thought of that. Live coverage = fine. Responding = that would never happen, but I can maybe see that being ok. Like you said, putting it all in one post is much more appropriate if it is that many. But posting 30-40 straight posts with the obvious intent of pissing everyone off is reason to be banned. | ||

90% of these posts are total garbage. 4396 * 0.9 = 3956.4 garbage posts. 4396 -3956.4 ------------------- 439.6 valid posts. | ||

I dont really know where I'd fall under the whole quality poster thing since I dont really tend to engadge in big thought provoking threads except for a few my 2 cents sorts of posts, but I consider myself more of a interesting link sort of guy... you know generally. I have to say though I'd been visiting tlnet for a good few months before I actually started to post regularly and back then it was a lot more interesting to read some of the stuff around here. Though also I actually played sc back then and was more intersted in the strategy sections. I'm assuming the 40 posts in a row thing was that screenshot thread and really thats gota be breaking some kind of rule in that big book of shit NOT to do....

I second that notion, obviously a lot of people tend to respect you more then most | ||
