This is ridiculous, where are all these haters and BMer everyone speaks of? Sure the LR thread blew up for a short while by disappointed Whitera fans as an immediate reaction but that's only natural, it just shows people are engaged and cares. I bid you to go down to a English or pub right after England loses 2-1 to Germany in the WC and where Germany scored the winning goal in some smart but 'abusive' way(I don't know what the equivalent to cheese would be in football but that's not the point). The fans there would make this LR thread look like a MC love letter and I can only wish SC2 will reach that stage of engagement one day.

That doesn't mean they can't see the brilliance of Germanys play when things have calmed down, but an immediate reaction is just normal and to be completely honest I haven't seen more than a handful BM posts since an hour or so after the final game.

edit: What I'm getting at is that there needs to be room for emotions, both from players and fans. Contrary to the majority here on TL it seems, I don't want SC2 to be like cricket(I'm ignorant to the sport and purely stereotyping) where you applaud your opponent politely then sits down for a cup of tea and biscuits.

Hell to the no, I want fist pumps and roars from the victor and tears and broken keyboards from the loser. I want the fans to jump up their seats and go crazy when their player wins and devastation, disbelief and frustration when he lose.

I wasn't around at the time so I wouldn't know but I'd guess a majority of fans were rooting for Boxer at the time? In my example above, if you'd gone to a German pub you would only hear praise of their clever and smart play. That's just how it works.

Of course, things have gone to far when people resort to harassment and physical violence but SC2 is light years from that point. We're talking about some angry posts at an internet forum, I think people need to get some perspective on things.

Well we're quickly closing the gap on the harrassment department if people start tweeting shit on MC just because he won a game vs a player with a fanbase.
It's, I assume, the newer members of the community who still don't understand what the game is about who're doing these kind of things. Shut it down fast before it spreads.
