500 posts requirement? A think a lot of people who posted in this thread are justly unhappy with this. It's a rather biased way to a lot of the TL community. There are a lot of us who have been on this site for a long time and have consistently visited every day but do not really post too frequently. Why? That's just the kind of people that we are, only choosing to drop a constructive post every now and then but not posting avidly. We still read, we still watch, we still are very much a part of this site and this community. Denying us a chance and instead letting people who have accumulated 500 posts with one-liners in Blogs participate? It just does not seem fair.

My suggestion? Add an alternate requirement that is based on the amount of time that your account has been registered with the site. I think 1 year or possibly even 6 months would be a solid benchmark.


I agree.
The amount of posts also doesn't say anything about the quality. Do we really want to support someone who has only spamed?

Yes, because all of us who have a lot of posts have only ever spammed. At least think before you make a post...


He did not even imply that... He is just saying that the amount of posts doesn't show one's quality of post and contribution to the community.

You posted 2k+ posts in less than a year. Did you make quality post? I'm sure you did. Did you have any spam "filler" posts? You probably did too. His whole point is that the current system has its flaw, no need to get defensive there...

The system rewards those who spend time on, and more importantly, add to TL. I see no problem in that.
Rather than say, people who just lurk around for 6 or 7 years without helping out in the strategy forums, without hyping up a tournament.


I have problem with this idea since the way I have helped TL for the past two years is getting more people to know about Starcraft 2, telling friends and classmates, getting more people to watch streams and watch tournaments. While I did not post in TL that much, it doesn't feel fair that to enter the contest, I have had to post 500 times as "proof of contribution".

Also there could be many reason why people do not post, in my case when i see other people posts and I want to argue or agree or simply compliment, I don't post due to my tendency to belittle whatever I might say and believe that no matter what I say, it will be ignored. Sadly I miss a chance to get a HotS beta key because I'm overly worrisome over things that i don't post.

It seems that my 2003 account is not eligible.

(I already have the beta so it doesn't matter to me so much... I guess I better start posting again if I want to be eligible for future contests though!)

Funny how the 10th anniversary coincides with the exact same day the last Broodwar games were being televised in Korea.

Here's to 10 more years!


P.S.: Are HotS beta keys limited to any region?

Hope I win!

I don't even care that much about playing the game--I just want to help make sure the design turns out alright, and they won't let me post in their feedback forums without a key.

39 posts isn't *that* much. You could probably make it with an hour or two of dedicated posting. Hopefully productive posting.

OP: This is the best thing so far! :DDDD

Too bad that the odds are probably comparable with the regular invites. 4k per wave is pretty big.
