Doubt that, considering that I wasn't the one who changed

Anyone wanna bet how many deaths it'll take for Idra to rage quit? I'm gonna go for like 5 in the first game.

Ah yes, so it must be "the community" - what is that by the way? Not only is the teamliquid community pretty big, it also involes many sub-communities. Many of the BW forum users never even touch the SC2 forums and vice versa.
Just acknowledge that there are people on this site that care about this and move on.

It'll be interesting to see how long this arrangement lasts post Blizzcon.

That's why there are BW news and SC2 news, separate entities. Community news are ones which affect all and everyone.
"TL Store Razer Affiliate Partnership" <-- affects the community/site as a whole, neutral
"Heroes of the Storm Tournament at Blizzcon!" and "EG announces their Heroes of the Storm Team" <-- definitely not the case here
For your information, I'm only here for BW and Melee (also used to look at DotA 2 sometimes when it was still here), so that last sentence is really unnecessary, especially considering I indicated that in my posts before.

Thats why I asked for a seperate section, though. I always saw Community News as more of a "dummy" category since technically no news affects all of the community.
And sorry if I was a little harsh, but honestly the way you said it made it sound like you were trying to raise high horse above all of TL because you dislike heroes. So my bad for overreacting a bit.
|
Yep, I would want that as well, if it's necessary (enough coverage, enough interest etc). Has there been a statement so far? Because posting news like this but not having a separate section isn't a good middle ground, in my opinion.
No harm done. I didn't post a proper explanation right off the bat anyway, plus, I did reply with some sarcasm on posts which didn't exactly answer my initial question.

Probably started his B Sc. and realised that playing Starcraft isn't the hardest thing in the universe after all.
