Side-note: that timing though, I haven't stopped by TL in months. Nerdy senses certainly were a-tingling.

Why depressing? It's pretty true. I think overall the SC/BW community was one of the least toxic I've personally experienced in gaming, less so for SC2, and FAR FAR less so for Dota 2. | ||

Anyone who blanketly says that BW or even starcraft in general is toxic, is pointing to a very small sample size of a generally BM people and say we are toxic. Yes those people are being dicks, but on a whole I think there is way too much of a narrative especially of BW that it is a toxic community when from my experience it has been far better than anything ive experienced in Moba or most other game types. | ||

Since coming back in December, basically all toxicity I've encountered has been related to abusing how the ladder works (usually in the form of people messing with MMR stuff or creating a new account and trolling in unranked) and I've only had one actual game with bm in it (it was a person who would leave a bunch of games in a row, then troll and bm people way lower MMR than he normally was). Most of the time now if someone is negative in a game it's in the form of self-loathing/self-deprecation, which is a much easier thing to handle. | ||

It's depressing because not following any moba I find their is already a lot of problem in the sc2 "community", reddit in particular can br pretty harsh it seem. It's kind of depressing to think we are one of the good one, moba community must be hell | ||

As far as I know, he's been a staff member for Nerdy Nummies for years. This is also probably one of the reasons why he stopped doing SC2. | ||

My dude you're a shit disturber who only posts there to bait people, of course they wouldn't be nice to you, lol. I barely lurk there these days and even I am aware of your reputation of troll who does nothing but incite SC2 vs BW arguments everywhere he goes... | ||

My Facebook account is deactivated so I can't check myself -- what exactly are you guys referring to? Also, sad to hear that his videos were taken down. I was never a subscriber nor did I watch all that many of his videos but I appreciate what he did for Starcraft during that time, and I do believe he had a genuine passion for the game. I always thought he did pretty well when he casted events, but I'm not one to be particularly critical of casters in general. It's hard as a regular person to imagine just leaving behind a massive channel with so many subscribers on YouTube abruptly like he did, but I know it is probably different when you're actually in that position yourself. Still, that's quite a bit of potential wealth for comparatively not that much effort to just leave behind. Especially considering he became inactive before the adpocolypse iirc In any case, I wish him the best. | ||
