Good on you for being so tough, leniency breeds repeat offending in cases like these.

Okay, now that TSL is done feeding the dogs, what's being done to improve the ladder stage so cheating can be unfeasible?

This seems a bit too lenient, but who am I to question the mods?
I'm glad something was done and I hope this deters people from cheating in the future.

Punishment is harsh, but fitting, and leaves no question on TL's stance.

Theoretical question, though: Does this mean that the next Liquibition is at least a year away (until F91's ban expires), or if you guys decided you wanted to host one sooner (though you did say it would be done for awhile), would you find someone else to take his place?

"A ban from TSL3 seems too harsh"
We must ban these cheaters from at least one future TSL. Otherwise, there is not deterrent toward abusing in the current TSL. If a player realizes he probably will not qualify, and the punishment for abuse is DQ from the current TSL, what stops him from abusing? There is no real penalty for him.

This is so true!

Okay, normally I just lurk around here, never post much, but this thread is some of the most rage inciting garbage i've ever read. These players have put time into improving this website, and have contributed to the improvement of so many players here. I don't know about you, but watching scan stream has been one of the things that has most improved my play. If they played 3-4 games unfairly then fine, disqualify them from the TSL, but to ban their accounts from tl is to remove all contributions they provide to this website. I do not believe this is well thought out.

TeamLiquid for the win! Thanks guys. Been waiting for someone to take a seriously hard line on cheating for a while - and KeSPA's ppp disqualifications don't count.

Good to see a strong stance being taken on cheating. F91 banned omg! A shame that such good players think it necessary to abuse in order to advance.

In all the abuse threads, the only people I've seen complain about punishments were the people that were actually friends with/fan of the players that got kicked. Never (I might have missed a few posts though) did I see a neutral person condemning our anti-abuse actions.

I think you should take some time to criticize yourself and see if you're really being objective here.

edit: And like mentioned before, they won't be banned from TL. Scan (skryoo) has been removed as a featured streamer though.
