I think this area definitely needed some clarification, if not just for all the new guys coming here with something to offer who might get too hasty and ruin their chances with an ill thought out post.

BTW - I also think you have to consider that some sub-communities that exist in TL and don't have a place of their own may tend to conduct some business here, what are thoughts on this?

For an example; the USA state- or location-related competitions and tournaments using TL as a means to reach the large fanbase of players in that subgroup here. But also less constructive or obscure communities.

I rarely click links to other Starcraft websites anyway. Seeing advertisements to mostly inferior websites is just annoying

Yeah, but what if we had even another 10 posters like him?
Would they all combined be not frequent enough?

Which one? The old iron fist thats rusted or the Iron fist that doom wears every day?

But seriously, great job Kennigit(sorry if misspelled)! This really helped me understand the exact standers of this rule. TL staff= BEST STAFF IN THE WORLD! Well... at least better than my school's staff and my brother's fellow staff members(not including him).

Potentially guilty of a little bit of this. Most of my chatting and hanging out is in IRC and not as much here on the forums.

To be fair, we give credit where it's due on the show, particularly since we have been upped to featured stream status, and I certainly consider us part of this community at this point. Have definitely been lurking in the IRC channel longer than I've been posting about OMFG on this forum.

TL.net is the backbone of the Starcraft world and its hard to imagine any Starcraft production not having some connection back to this community.

This is a great post, and I'm glad to see some regulation.

MLG is going to support Starcraft 2?

Looks like it so far, the casts i've seen on youtube are pretty sweet so far. Improving with every game (it's a crying shame about the lack of HD but hey, ggs).

I guess they're just gauging interest at the moment with the KOTBH cup, I'm loving how it changes every week with each patch :p

Went back and watched their halo coverage and it actually made me actually get some respect for halo, that's pretty tough for someone like me that despises console shooters.

Perfectly normal. When coming to a new website, one should always contribute before expecting anything in return.

Episode 1: MY GIRLFRIEND

I've never had this problem before - well, even now it's not really a problem, but I feel bad when I do it - where I have to fake an orgasm with my girlfriend. Why? Because I'm tired of doing all the work and my girlfriend has already gotten off. I mean it's not like I do this regularly, but only when we go for like 3-4 rounds at a time. Obviously I'm going to be shooting blanks by then and it gets painful.. sometimes really painful. Just today we were on our 3rd go at it and after like 20 minutes into it she was done and I was still going. I was just getting more and more tired and I couldn't feel it ending soon for me so I thought to myself "fuck it, I got off twice already and she's had her fill so let's just cuddle" and hopped out.

So anyhow.. is it wrong that I fake it? Is it deceitful to my girlfriend? Should I feel ashamed that I have to fake it? Have any of you resorted to this before?

I support this motion, nice work. I've had my fill.

What if I post a blog with a link to my Twitter where I microblog about updating my blog on ICCup?

It's almost disheartening kind of what (a small segment) TL has become, which I realize is inevitable since in many ways it's also beneficial for TL. The way I am bombarded in every Starcraft 2 thread I read with subtle plugs, promotions, and worst of all, this sort of false "I care about the community" vibe I get from a lot of people trying to work their way up or become known.

How about creating a specific thread for all the website/blog advertisers etc to post their stuff.
