You guys don't really get it. Posting one-liners is not a bad thing, as long as it's not the ONLY thing you post. There's lots of these people only posting 'lol!' once in a while. If that's all that you do, you're a shitty poster .

Lawl mart is a good example.

Everyone fears rekrul, but truth of the matter it is Twisted the one you should be fearing. He is the true clorinator, he is systematic and relentless; rekrul is more sporadic and random!

Bottom line though, forum moderation is all about thinking what is best for the forum, not your self or your ego etc., and a lot of commonsense. This overrides all rules. It happens to be a scare commodity in us humans.

Does TL.net have good moderation? There is an easy way to judge this in any forum: the success and growth of any forum.

I tend to do that shit a lot. :/

But then again I contribute on an infinite amount of levels that some people can't even comprehend.

Bumping this so people will see it.

Also, I would like people to know that the LAST post someone says does not determine whether he gets banned or not -- it is the overall posting pattern. We look at all the previous posts of the guy before we ban him. RARELY will ONE post get somebody banned -- it is a cumulative process.

Yes people, making shitty posts is now a bannable offense~!

Anyways, I have a question:
Say you had some strikes on your paper, could you tell us? via PM, maybe? like "strike one - refer to this thread to keep your posts from being shitty"Or are you just going to keep it as a mental note?

In the past, I've usually handed out many warnings via PM. This week, however, things have tightened up a little. This topic in itself is a warning.

Roger that.

And do you have a thread or something that explains the users avatars because it's confusing to me like Klogon's Kittyloaf.

We do have to realise that this is not 'Teamliquid's shop for the mentally handicapped'. It's not hard to post quality posts 90% of the time. It's not hard to properly type out a proper post!

This is an internet forum about starcraft. Certainly admins have a right to moderate their forum as they wish, and if they want TL.net to have substantive discussion they can try. And if the posters don't like that, they can leave or get banned. But I don't want this forum to become pretentious. In the grand scheme of things (and the not so grand) video games are worthless, broodwar is worthless, and this whole forum is worthless. The only thing it's good for is a little enjoyment and relaxation for posters. Don't forget that.

We mostly ban people because they ruin that fun for others or simply because they piss us (being the staff of TL) off.

What about people like me? I'm just now trying to get good enough at StarCraft to be able to post here effectively, and add some quality information, but I really stink.

Just because I'm a total noob and don't post that often (well, is this post #2?), will I be getting banned? Is this a general cleanup of low posters too? Do you ever clean out inactive members?

Hehe no no no and no. Just post normal and quality posts and you're just fine! Read the 10 commandments.

being a newbie isn't bannable, of course
I mean you should probably refrain from giving advice in the strategy forum when you're not actually good at sc, but you could still be a valuable contributor in the general forum for example

low posters don't get banned because they are low posters, but they are given considerably less leeway than forum veterans, which is very reasonable I think

as far as I know inactive accounts never get deleted

Correct. If they did, we'd only have a couple thousand registered users, instead of like 24k.

however, if you discover a completely new and badass strat, say like reaver/sair, then you should post about it. or that maxing at 12 minutes is the best way to win pvt.
Only communists disconnect.
