These are going to be some awesome changes, i can't wait!
It's going to be great actually being able to look through here and have it impart any knowledge of what I was looking for!

Really looking forward to this. I'll make a comparison between another site and this one arenajunkies.com

In The Burning Crusade that website was an amazing source of information on how to play your WoW character in a PvP situation and how you should be reacting/specing/strategizing and why you should do it. Ever since WOTLK came out the website is 100% useless for any sort of information. People do nothing at all but complain about other classes and state stupid things like "just play better" or "you can't win? LOL". The website went from a source of good information into a total piece of crap. And it wasn't the new users fault at all, all the "veteran-posters" do the exact same thing, over and over.

Team liquid is starting to degenerate into that state as well and I am really happy the moderators are taking a stand right now. Examples from a thread that just came up.

correction.

All zerg units can be beaten if you micro correctly by the marine alone.


1- Hellion Agreed
2- Viking - Gets owned by muta
3- Thor - Gets owned by magic box
4- Marine - Who cant win with these?



I'm not saying I can do it. I play z. I'm just stating the facts.


That is from a thread that went up recently. That's from the first page alone. The thread is on a fast-track to the graveyard. Post like that are for the starcraft2.com forums, not for the TL.net forums.

I'll be watching this with interest.

I hate to see how the usual thread goes something like this:
- "I have this great strat"
- Person X "I didn't watch the replay but...!"
- Person A "This won't work because of *mentions perfect counter*"
- Person B "This isn't new. I did it back in 1986 in the pre alpha version"

I'm a lower level player (gold) and I'd love to see strats aimed towards lower levels too. I know the majority are aimed at high level and I'd love to see that change a bit.

YES i fucking hate every time someone wants to contribute with a nice strategy there's always a bunch of smart asses who think that just figuring out a way to counter the build totally invalidates the whole post, as if there's any unbeatable strategies. cheers for the purge, it's been long overdue :D

This is a huge undertaking. If this helps clean up the strat forums into something worth reading and where replies are not overwhelmed by trash responses this will be a better website.

I have to say, I hope so. Virtually every time I've watched a replay, the description of what happened fails to capture what actually caused the problem / loss. Which makes sense when you think about the nature of a 'help me' thread


That's what we get when everyone thinks their day 9 unless Tl only lets masters+ post nothings going to change with the shoddy Analysis. I still say make some sort of live Profile that shows Points and league next to your name then at a glance you can see the posts worth reading

I did suggest making a bot to auto-warn people with predictably lame replies once upon a time to Plexa.

Yeah, really good comparison with what arenajunkies use to be. The difference being starcraft is actually being balanced as an E-sport; blizzard never intended for arena to be the main balance factor since their main fanbase is by an overwhelming margin-PvE raiders.

On arenajunkies they get to talk less about strategies, and more about the FOTM blizzard decides to patch.

This is a great point. I'm glad that the Strategy forum is going to be cleaned up. :D

I rarely post in the Strategy forum, but I do read it every day.

Looking forward to this. I could cut the time I spend on here by so much, and my marks would thank you as well ^_^.

You should also make a balance section and just ban anyone who posts there.

Haha so it takes a ridiculous drunken adventure with severe hangovers to clean up the strategy forum :p

Thank you zatic i look forward being able to venture into the strategy some time in the future.

What about every time you hit Post on Add A New Topic in the strategy forum it immediately populated the search bar with your thread title, and you can opt that your topic still needs to be posted but then it automatically shoots to the guidelines thread and then you opt that it STILL needs to be posted - that way people who can't be bothered putting effort in will probably give up before the end of the process and everything is absolutely clear

Yes, yes, yes!!

Your person A ESPECIALLY gets on my nerves...! Every single time, the thread goes almost exactly how you put it, but that person A makes me want to break my monitor ;;

Seriously, even worse is when that person, after reading just the OP, states, "you can try to do that to me, but I will do X, Y, Z" (a.k.a. your perfect counter). The reason this is even more irritating is that he is almost making a personal attack on the OP who created the strat/build by stating that "YOU CANNOT" do this build to me because I will use [perfect counter]. Then, the OP feels obligated to reply in some way, and the flames begin to rise...

Will be awaiting the purge :3

We should maintain a list of links to especially bad topics/posts as a wall of shame/reference we can use :D
