I suck pretty hard at BW so I would observe a lot of games. During one game, another observer talked about the GOMTV tournament (Way back in Season 1, when it was still alive). I watched every match after that and after hearing Tasteless plug this site like 10 times I figured I should probably check it out. I've been coming here every day since then :D

EDIT: Wow, after reading some of the other comments I guess I'm not the only one

TL is so good, you don't even have to post to get something out of it =D, so once you're here you don't want to quit.

I think through www.teamareola.com somehow. Don't remember when but it was 2002/2003 when I first started coming to this site.

EDIT: Wow the site must have gone down recently, it was there a couple months ago but it has been stagnate since 2004 or so.

It was actually funny. I started to watch Baezzi's channel a lot right after SCII announcement and there was that guy going by the nick teamliquidsucks that was always trashing everybody's comments, complaining about everyone's posts, etc. So I thought that if that guy hated TeamLiquid so much, it had to be an awesome site!!!

A friend of mine told me about TL when I was in grade 9. When I started playing Starcraft in grade 12, I remembered the site name and the rest is history

I actually learned about TL from GG.net.

Everyone was like "TL is trash" so I came to see what the fuss was all about and I never went back to GG.net

I was listening to a Moletrap commentary, and he mentioned TL.

I don't quite recall. Either draeger or hnr)ht mentioned it in a channel or on s&t (I think it was still s&t then). I know that it was shortly after the wcg 2002 finals when I first browsed tl.
