| Forum Index > StarCraft 2 Tournaments |
If you don't know how to post in a live report thread by now, be advised: don't whine about game balance and don't bash players/casters/interviewers/staff/other posters. And don't start the USA USA USA!!! stuff. | ||

Realize this: There's little to no difference between both sites. You'll obviously find more detailed and plentiful content on TL as it's a dedicated community and the central western SCBW/SC2 hub, but the userbases of both sites overlap to a very large degree and both formats have their use. I browse both, I enjoy both, and I'm not alone with this. | ||

I guess I won't do it ever again after all the hate I got, especially on reddit. I mean I don't think I am even fit for casting but it was supposed to be a fun experience for everyone and nobody was disappointed or mad after it. Why would you give a shit about a few retards on Reddit? Obviously the vast majority of us enjoyed your casting, and it was so interesting to hear two top-level pros arguing and disagreeing, PLEASE PLEASE keep doing it when you have the occasion, and not let the stupid haters win!!! PLEASE!!! | ||

Reddit seems more sc2-related-gossip obsessed, whereas TL posters are more obsessed with proving one way or the other that they race they are currently playing is the weakest shittiest race ever in any game :D Besides, its not just TL bashing reddit, Reddit bashes reddit too http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/o5d3y/fuck_you_reddit_now_youve_made_cloud_feel_bad/ | ||

Cloud for every 10.000 haters on reddit, there are 100.0000 people who loved the casting, dont listen to the haters bro. | ||

Just take a look at the "elitist douchebags at TL" raging about the "bronze league retards at Reddit" - if both sites share the same demographic of the very worst kind of posters, then the rest of the normal and valuable posters can't be too far apart either. As shown regularly by lots of high-quality content on either page. While the specifics may be different, I consider both to be valuable community pillars. | ||

No-one was really that much upset with you taking the lead in the commentary, everybody knew more or less that Thorzain was observing (he said it himself) and GoOdy wasn't in a very talkative mood either. But you can't really deny that you were talking over and interrupting Thorzain (and in some cases GoOdy) a LOT. You also were really often using phrases like "I disagree". This was annoying to a lot of people (yes, also to me, I still love you ♥), because you were already talking so much and when the other two had something to say, you would constantly (it really isn't an exaggeration) shoot them down, talk over them or just "disagree" and not accept their standpoint. Reddit can be extreme, and when a few hundred haters (out of over 75k readers) upvote a hate thread, that is just a vocal minority being vocal. Please don't punish the rest of the world (by denying us your commentary) simply by judging on the opinions of a few hundred. | ||

The cast was very good, great to hear from three different Terrans in a TvT. Take it from a redditor, never listen to anything reddit says. | ||

I browse both, I enjoy both, and I'm not alone with this. There's plenty of difference. What has Reddit produced in the last 6-8 months other than image memes and gossip? The site has rapidly gone down in quality. It's day9 worship and stupid pictures 95% of the time, the other 5% is some drama fest that that they end up feeling bad for and change their mind about the next day. Reddit today is flat out horrendous | ||

People just use the anonymity of the Internet to be the assholes they can't be in real life. Don't let them get you down. You did a great job. Keep it up. | ||

I feel pretty silly for joining the starcraft community late, it's difficult sometimes to separate myself from these morons. | ||

You did so well, that I thought: "Wow, Cloud should become a caster". However, GoOdy and Thorzain are not the best in pingpong some jokes. GoOdy, Thorzain and Cloud are the TOP terrans in EU considering SC2 game knowledge. | ||

Seriously dont read Reddit  Reddit is just there to create and discuss drama and to kill time. It was fine, really. | ||
