You don't receive physical harm by ignoring a post online. I cannot believe you actually attempted to compare the two. Wrong. You can ignore it by running away, instead of fighting back. But that aside, the funny thing is that I anticipated exactly this sort of response from you, hence my personal acknowledgment of how my analogy is hardly perfect. But like I said, it's enough to communicate my issue with how somehow "it takes two people to argue" is your justification for blaming the responding party rather than the party being responded to.
While, you can ignore the fight by running away (assuming you don't pursue) the physical damage has already been done. Also, you acknowledged that your analogy isn't perfect because you yourself realize that you don't have any foundation for a counter argument. Once again, there is no physical harm in ignoring a forum post, therefore the two scenarios cannot be compared. Think of the first poster as the fire and the responder as the fuel. Mix the two and what do you get?

Haha, this argument could go on and on, just as any argument on the internet can, but I'd rather stop wasting both our time.
In closing, I'd like to point something out.
-this argument is stupid and going nowhere, essentially polluting the LR thread, which is why I'd like to stop
-you initially criticized me for responding to ESF baiters and contributing to LR thread pollution
Hmm....

What's an argument with only one person? Exactly, it takes two people to argue. Okay, so if I punched you in the face and you fought back, you'd be the one who started the fight because it takes two people to have a fight. I realize that this analogy isn't perfect, but it should suffice for communicating why I think you're wrong. The fact that you cannot even come up with a proper analogy is evidence that you shouldn't be trying to counter argue. Punching somebody in the face is physical harm that can lead to injury which is why it cannot be ignored and will result in self defense (hence me punch you back). You don't receive physical harm by ignoring a post online. I cannot believe you actually attempted to compare the two. Wrong. You can ignore it by running away, instead of fighting back. But that aside, the funny thing is that I anticipated exactly this sort of response from you, hence my personal acknowledgment of how my analogy is hardly perfect. But like I said, it's enough to communicate my issue with how somehow "it takes two people to argue" is your justification for blaming the responding party rather than the party being responded to. While, you can ignore the fight by running away (assuming you don't pursue) the physical damage has already been done. Also, you acknowledged that your analogy isn't perfect because you yourself realize that you don't have any foundation for a counter argument. Once again, there is no physical harm in ignoring a forum post, therefore the two scenarios cannot be compared. Think of the first poster as the fire and the responder as the fuel. Mix the two and what do you get? Gimme fuel, gimme fire - obviously Metallica
Metallica haven't been half decent since SC Vanilla

People like BlazeFury and you are parts of the problem because between a. Asshats doing shit posting and b.

Your philosophy seems to be that if you ignore shit posters, they'll go away, but in my experience on forums, that's never really been the case. It's better to respond to them to draw even more attention to the problem so eventually something will actually be done about it. If no one voices their displeasure then everyone gets complacent and nothing changes.

The thing is that some Kespa > ESF gloaters are big BW fans who are apparently still butthurt that the BW scene ended, largely in part due to SC2, so their way of coping is to pollute threads with their baiting (this isn't unfounded speculation on my part - I've seen some posters explicitly and unabashedly admit that they're doing this to piss people off). To be clear, I don't mean in any way to generalize and accuse all BW fans of doing this because most of them are cool, reasonable people, but there are certainly a few bad apples. Yep I know that, I am just amused how no matter what is going on, instead of talking about the games/strategy/plays the topic is changed to Kespa vs eSF bullcrap.

In closing, I'd like to point something out. -this argument is stupid and going nowhere, essentially polluting the LR thread, which is why I'd like to stop -you initially criticized me for responding to ESF baiters and contributing to LR thread pollution Hmm....
Which proves my statement correct - it wasn't an "argument" until you "responded" lol. When and where did I directly criticize you personally? I simply disagreed with a statement of yours.

Now, that is reasonable advice. Though it might backfire

No I'm pretty sure It's Starcraft This thread sure looks like Politics. eSF side is Democrat playing soft nicer Politics, and KeSPA baiters are Republicans playing hard unreasonable politics. Popularity is on Democrat side, but Republicans are more relentless.
Uhh... Can't it be the other way around?

Surprised Savage managed to beat Yoda for 2nd, didnt think Savage was a good player.
Crazy how there's actually a very good chance next season with only 1 LG-IM player in the WCS.
Always used to seeing 5-6 of them in there.
