Not only that, but not everybody actually reads TL forums, and not many people click this or click that on websites. His name used to be on the front, which was good for streamers since it gave them a higher chance to get higher viewers. For people like you and I, that doesn't matter in the slightest, but for many people it does. Not only are people wondering where Protech and other streamers went, but the streamers are now missing out on a lot of money. Not to mention the exposure.

I don't see NASL on the calendar in the sidebar, yet it's in the full calendar.
I have both "SC2" and "Other" enabled, so I'm not sure what to do.

Well, the best thing you can do is support his stream by watching it. If he goes up above a certain viewership, he'll get featured again. 
TL staff reviewed and re-reviewed his case and decided against him being featured. I don't think anything you can say right now in this thread will change their opinion.

Same here. When I turn on Brood War calendar events, however, it correctly shows; I'm guessing that NASL has been incorrectly tagged as BW and not SC2.

Ah, gotcha, that'll be it.
Should be an easy fix.

This is very, very nice. I approve 100% of the added customization and the featured stream decisions.

ATTENTION: About ProTech and TL Staff
Don't flood their inbox from this point on guys. The Staff has heard us.

I have streams sorted by game then by "default", which I thought was alphabetical. It is not. Is there a way to sort non-featured streams by game then alphabetically?

Specifically, just quickly using the race icons next to the stream, I'm wondering if you guys can make the race icons appear to the left of the player's name, rather than to the right. Having it to the right staggers the icons in a way that is not visually appealing, and it's also hard to "parse" the information. Other than that, I love the new functionality so far.

For what its worth I am happy to see that TeamLiquid staff are taking a look at who they have been featuring and making adjustments accordingly.
Protech is one case that I was very happy to see was no longer featured on this site. The racial slurs he has uttered whenever I saw his stream were unreal, not to mention the other hateful comments I have seen him utter. The way he treats people and the harrassment he gives to poeple on ladder were abysmal and then if he ever lost he would blame them for cheating and slander them in general. All in all I felt having a person performing such as this whilst being featured was a little sad to see.
I just thought I would share a few words on the matter. sorry if this was the wrong place to leave this feedback, but lots of other people already seem to be voicing their thought here already so i threw my hat in the ring.
TL staff have done well in my eyes by making this decision.
Thanks
Also. I have read many of the comments and i know he had a warning wen you would go to watch the stream about possible vulgarities and I understand that. The above text was merely a reflection of how I felt seeing behavior like that being featured on TeamLiquid. I know his stream and his conduct on it are his own business, I just thought little to see it being featured.

I edited the text out of my old post asking for it to be deleted if a moderator stumbleed upon it litterally seconds after reposting here. Your timing was simply opportunistic

Your grossly exaggerated diatribe aside....
I suppose you are upset that destiny wasnt de-featured eh?

JYP has started streaming (http://www.own3d.tv/live/150857/TSLJYP_-_SCII_Protos), i'd guess he'd pretty much be instantly featured wouldn't he? should i PM anyone in particular about a new stream like this to featured it or would he still have to make a TL account for it?
|
I don't know if this is the right place, but I cannot believe you defeatured Attero 
I heard he will be re-featured again next month, which is better than nothing I guess.
But why not let him stay featured instead?
edit: I guess I should make some kind of argument.
He is imo one of best protoss currently streaming who does a lot of commentating while playing. This is great for low-lewels like myself because I learn so much more, when people actually explains their decision making while playing.
He HAS results,
- Championship Bracket of MLG 2011,
- Qualified for IEM NY beating TSL_Killer
- Got to the finals of WCG Canada (a 5000$ paid trip to Korea but lost to Kiwikaki)
- Top GM player and aspiring to be #1 on the ladder
+ more accomplishments
You say he was averaging ~150 viewers which I find kinda hard to believe (I think he hovers around 300-400 once the stream gets going?), but maybe I'm wrong.
My 2 cents

Really great job TL .But i dont understant something why too many threats about Protech ???
So many great players like VileSpanishWa say to his stream : If you support Maphack,Tabhack,StreamHack on my chat is a auto ban ,and some times is normal if you losse a game to BM a little if you play with the same players again and again because use Hacks and have the same MMR.The funny is the streamhackers when streamer says something to the mic after some secs in the game stream hackers they anwser So blizz cant find all that kids how hacking thats is the real problem.I see all Techs replays and YES they are cheating but to understant (for us the non hackers) the cheat you must know how its works.I see too many treats about Tech when he losse say <<They are cheating>> This is not excuse this is real happening and ppl start blame Tech at treats ,so be more carrefully plz when you dont know how some things work and a treat you must be sure about what you say guys for many reasons.All the Top players have the same problem because have a popullar name at the game and streaming. Thing all that guys .
My respects TL keep the good work.
