Shitposting is an art. You have to consider both the volume of work, as well as shitposting diversity and consistency.

Well, you do yourself. But there is still no rational reason why watching an event with 7 koreans is inherently better than watching an event with 4 koreans. Except I prefer watching players I care about. Matches are better when I actually care about who wins. Since I watch mostly Koreans I know those players better. So it's certainly better with 7 players I care about than 4 (I'm not saying there are no foreigners I like, but there are certainly more Koreans I care about). And the Korean tournaments are not on times where I can watch them live. So no Koreans at weekend tournaments means there are fewer players I care about. In that case you should also be sad that the pre2015 Koreans were banned, cause you would have even more than 7 back then. Again, the problem isn't wanting more Koreans, the problem is wanting 7 koreans instead of 4 and being really devastated that this number changed in such a meaningless fashion. Well obviously that goes without saying. I don't want region lock to begin with. But if we have to have region lock I would prefer the 2015 model over the 2016 one. Also, I normally try not to complain about it to begin with, because I don't really feel it adds anything to complain, I just don't watch instead. Well then your position is rational, but it doesn't go without saying at all. Part of why we got the 2015 system is because the community pushed for it. The 2016 system is the one who gets shit on, not region locking in general. There was no talk of WCS welfare in 2015, that system went swimmingly.

And there might be less complaining about it if there were still Koreans at weekend tournaments, but who knows. Honestly though, is there really that much complaining to begin with really, are you sure that it isn't just a few vocal people? Just like there used to be a few people who posted stuff like "Oh, only Koreans left in the tournament, time to stop watching." back then. If nobody speaks against them, then "a few vocal people" become the voice of the community. So I'm speaking against them. The truth is that it feels more "welfare" than last year because there are more tournaments where this region locking actually applies. Last year we had three seasons which are these championships now, additionally we now have other "weekend" wcs tournaments region locked as well. That wasn't a thing last year. That's the reason people shout these statements. Another truth is (probably) that if it wasn't for that region lock we probably wouldn't have sc2 at any dreamhack/IEM this year. There aren't more tournaments where it applies, there are less tournaments where it doesn't apply. There are also less tournaments.
Exactly.
So the community should voice their concerns on the number of events, and the number of global events, instead of being offended that foreigners have it too easy because they fight 4 Koreans instead of 7.

Sure but that doesn't make you a SHITPOSTER...

does consistency help or hurt your shitposting image?

You'd need more than one shit post to become a shitposter I'd say. And you're not supposed to give your strategy away.

There's less tournaments because there are fewer viewers. Nothing Blizzard can do except spend more money subsidising them can change that.
