I try to think over my posts and I like them to count, so I don't post very often. I post here and there, not the greatest things, but I try to be helpful and not write junk if I can. I have made a topic in the BW section requesting UMS maps and I thought it sounded good and earnest, but it seemed like noone had an interest in answering my request :\ UMS maps are a no in TL?

I don't believe I have insulted anyone, since I wouldn't have a reason to anyways.

Judging ppl by their post count is retarded imo, kinda like bringing up karma back when I was active in GFAQs. Plus, I have a low post count myself so it would be idiotic of me to judge.

I read through my posts to see if I can tweak it to sound better. I don't want to sound stupid ^^

So I've followed the rules, but I haven't truly made any real contributions. Really, I am more of a lurker and I enjoy reading the threads that are posted here and occasionally inserting my input. It's also a definite plus to be able to post while watching a live game, really adds to the experience. I'm not sure what I would give myself, because I don't trust myself with ratings, but maybe atleast a 6? Heh, well I guess you can make the judgment if you like.

He is right on one point. The word purge created enormous expectations. That word reminds us of Stalin's Great Purge which can be summarized in deportations, persecution, imprisonment and killings. Roughly between 700 000 and 2 000 000 deaths.

And you call that TL.net pleasure cruise a PURGE?. Come on!

I too share the similar viewpoint of the previous posters in that the Purge is somewhat lenient, although this does not make it a bad thing. Banning for low qualities post alone would be a bit much since not everyone can deliver something equivalent of Plexa's amazing threads. However, everyone really should look to increase the quality of their posts since we will all benefit from this.

5: Silly one liners and a helpful NON-starcraft related post once in a while. Weak!

ETA: And for not reading previous posts!

Alcohol may annihilate their capacity of objectiveness. I disagree.

This is not the matter that I am discussing. Without any objectiveness, they could ban people that totally do not deserve to be banned, whether by grudge or just incapacity to show sense of judgement.

I doubt if they were that drunk they would be like "HEY LETS GO ON TEAMLIQUID AND BAN PEOPLE MUAHHAHAHAH!" It would probably be more like, let's shoot fireworks into the neighbors house.

6/10

I try to actually add to the site. Every month when the power rank comes out, I debate with people, I try not to flame, and I give out reasoned points that I've thought over for a while. I think I'm a pretty fair person to debate with and I do my best after all. Usually I try to help someone on Starcraft when he needs it [Ive analyzed a few replays or just answered a few basic questions], or just add to the discussion of past pro gamers, maps, the future of the tsl, etc. With that being said I'm not a particularly model member of teamliquid. I, like many others, am a little aggressive. I don't deny that. I have flamed people a few times [always in response, but that doesn't excuse it of course] or just been a little overly hostile. When I realize I'm at fault I try to fix the situation, but nonetheless. I've been warned for that once, and another time for spoiling a game. Spoiling the game was just a careless mistake on my part. So yeah. I try to add reasoned discussion to the site but at the same time I'm a bit of an asshole, and I have my faults.
Can you dig it?

No I don't. But I prefer prevention. If we can, by making one with common sense, avoid useless bans, we will do it. That is the least we can do for all those worthy members.

if a member is deemed worthy enough then I do not think they will get banned. And in the off chance that they do, the sentencing is usually lighter.

This is exactly were the matter is: people that deserve to be banned have to be banned and those who are worthy will not be purged. However, my point is that being drunk alters all that logical thinking.
