There's a way in the options menu. Can do that from battle net, no need to start a game. it doesn't hide em, but they are unclickable (Pretty dumb, huh?)

usually they'll build it in a corner, and have to build 4-5 canons before they can hit your supply lines (hitting refinery is fine) make sure they cant hit your supply depots, lift your CC/Rax and move to a different expansion.. build a 2nd rax, push their front, and they'll build canons to defend themselg, cause they likely cant get gateways up in time 
if this push doesnt beat them, get a fact + tech lab asap, and get seige... once you seige their base, you can take out canons easily, and they wont have the army to combat yours, so, they're screwed, GG
i used to lose to this all the time (mainly on steppes of war) so just thought i would share

I was playing with my RL friend who is new to sc2 in bronze league, we went vs terran x2 on incineration zone. Fearing a double 9 rax reaper cheese, I scouted early with a drone (I was Z, friend was P). When I got to one of the terran's base, he was playing standard and walling off. I set my drone to attack and somehow killed both of the guy's scvs working on his barracks and depot. To add insult to injury, the drone killed his SCV right before (1 sec tops) he was done his rax.
He instantly ragequit, my friend and i laughed over it on vent for a while.

Hahahahah =) I'm not sure that this is the optimal way to beat a cannon rush but it sure sounds like fun. Cannon rush me? k you can have those there ill just go to another base =p I imagine this causes lots of rage quits from the cannon-rusher.

@Poll Build 2+ Queens (with the lovely Transfusions) = bye bye Void Rays, Thank You for the victory.

this TLO poser on US server (sn: TheLittleOne)
Scenario: PvP on Scrap Station
he sends out a proxy probe at start of game, then pauses the game to divert attention from his proxy probe.
his probe gets killed. then he goes straight for warp ray tech, loses his first warp ray to my warp ray + stalker. then he says "eat a **** and die"
WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE!?

Just got double 6pooled in 2s; did the almost smash my desk gesture! =(

If you see a proxy gate, all you need to do is bunker your mineral line.
If he cannon rushes AND you can't take out the probe, just go reaper and go kill ALL his workers

i change my strat from tanks turtling to thor drop just for him. outmicro his roaches with some clutch thor pickups, since he absolutely REFUSED to go AA. and then when he got infestors, i just moved away and he let the infested thor get out of his control and back into my control
him: f***ing terrans me: gg? him: no i can't respect a terran player
geezums sorry, next time just say no tanks, thors, vikings, marauders, hellions, marines, banshees, ravens, battlecruisers, planetary fortress, ghost, marines, reapers, medivac, autoturrets.
As a protoss player, may I request you don't make any SCV's either? 
I once played Zerg and used Mutas to harass a terran's mineral line. After a while of this he called me a coward who wouldn't come out and fight and ragequit <_<.

I was practicing vs. a Green Tea AI...
and got rushed with an impossibly large army (I went tank asap. when my first tank poped, AI got 3 tanks en route)
I: F*ck you! Cheater!!!! AI: [Silence]

Played 2v2 with my buddy today and decided we'd mess around. I would go mass hellion and send him my extra gas and he'd go mass sentry and send me his extra minerals. Early on I decided to make a few reapers to stall while I got my factories up.
I build three and queued up a couple more while I went in to harass.
With those 5 reapers I alone I killed the zerg player completely. He then had the audacity to tell me his teammate sucked.

Versus Zerg on LT:
I made tanks and thors and he built stuff all around the map refusing to leave saying stuff like: "IMPOSSIBLE" "WHAT CAN I DO VERSUS TANKS?"
I felt bad since I didn't know what he could have done versus tanks either.

I did a terrible thing yesterday, I was not myself, I was on a long losing streak and I played this protoss who did not GL HF at the start and did not say a word the whole match, already frustrated by my poor performance all night when it was clear I was about to lose I floated off my building to the corners of the map... again he said nothing which infuriated me more, he killed my buildings and I was dropped back into the lobby.. then it happened. I messaged him and said "your a noob!" he replied in german something about being a retard and blocked me.
Needless to say thats the kind of behaviour that should get a player banned, I should of just walked away but as he didn't even make an attempt to talk in game it pushed me over the edge.
I appologies to this player and I have denied myself pizza untill the 27th.
