I find it greatly annoying that more than half the comments I see in the Power Rankings are very shallow and of poor quality, and quantity for that matter. I see people say, no you're wrong... that's it. They give no reasoning behind it. DJEtter knows what he's talking about. He put a lot of reason and thinking into these selections.

I would really like to see the Power Rankings spark intelligent debates whenever they come out. But right now I see some people putting intelligent input and the majority putting half assed one line disagreements. Show some respect to DJEtter and put some thought into your criticisms.

Power rankings are based upon current trends.... You do realize this right?

I think you can replace "the Power Rankings" with "teamliquid.net" and your comments are as accurate, if not more. There's no reason to pick a bone with this particular thread since a bulk of mindless discussion is common throughout the forums. Such content is expected and perhaps even desired by the moderators. Because if it wasn't, why aren't the authors of every shallow post punished? If you don't like such conduct in discussion, you could endeavor to change it, but since it has been a tradition of TL.net since its inception, you might find difficulty.

TL has always had a strict line of moderating, and as a result, their forums have by far the best quality out of all non-korean SC sites (just look at gg.net's forums -_-).

And also, how exactly would you punish shallow posts? Ban every poster, so that we're left with 50 people, and all the rest quit SC and progaming?

Perhaps tl.net is the best quality of any non-Korean SC site, but the quality is much worse than other forums (not SC related). I don't know why you're asking me how I would punish shallow posters. Like I said, it's part of the forums that the administrators desire but don't encourage. There is a balance between popularity and quality and this forum has settled at a point and I'm not judging it at all. My point was just that it seemed a bit funny for jkillashark to bring that up in this thread when I think it's omnipresent and obvious.

In my opinion, the English-speaking SC community can't support a lively forum that bans all shallow posters. The percentage of people in the SC community who would be good posters (ie have knowledge, time and willingness) is not high enough, considering how small the total population is, to support a lively forum. The number would dip too small to make good use of the forum medium. Maybe I'm wrong and there could be such a forum. However it'd be crazy for TL.net to risk the good thing they have going here just to find out.
