At first I was like only mildly smiling about this troll post. Yeah, quite funny. :/

The most hilarious part, however, are serious people posting serious fanboy stuff. How stupid to compare tournament results or get excited about such mild bm. Those people should get over it.

+ Show Spoiler +
Still, my opinion on that comparison stuff. Grubby was like one of the best WC3 Player, but even if you win at the special olympics, you are still ... .

You know, I didn't expect to read something like this from a Liquid player. Glad to see other people are now finding it distasteful as well.

But I'll be honest and say that it's I mainly because I want everybody in the community to think I'm awesome and kiss my ass

this was not nice at all. i understand trolling but straight-up insulting players is bad.

Seriously people on the internet get offended by anything. Unbelievable, I guess we had better not make jokes ever because all these random fanboys will get angry. I thought it was funny, for what its worth.
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul

yes that was the part that seemed to show his real attitude behind making the post (which is NOT only trolling but insulting at least that's how i would perceive it).

And the guy saying that ANYONE else would have been banned for that is so 100% spot on. TL.net does not treat trolling or insulting lightly, like ever.

Why do so many people think this is fucking funny. Is it the cool thing now to bash on another progamer's thread about helping somebody out. I don't care if you don't think the mentor-ship that Grubby is doing is going to work, trolling him about it is useless and doesn't mean much.

Ret vs Grubby is currently 6-5. So yea, Ret your so baller for smashing Grubby LOL.

Grubby is a God, while you will never ever achieve the things he has in his life. I actually used to like you Ret, just felt that you needed somebody to mentor you, because you make the same exact mistakes now as you did 6 months ago, which is ironic because you make fun of a programer that has done litterally 3x as much as you for trying to help someone out. Maybe you should ask if Grubby can give you some tips? Because while your skill is stagnating Grubby is better every single day. I just lost the little respect I did have for you

All I'm saying that the post is distasteful and unnecessary. Am I personally offended? No, and I doubt anyone else is. Jokes are cool, just in good taste. Why make a mockery of a pure and goodhearted gesture?

We can also think that's just not funny without being a fanboy. But I guess we better not expect people on the internet to be at least smart enough to think that way, right ?

Grubby posted it EARLIER than Ret. Ret made a "remake".

There is a difference between not finding something funny and being emotionally damaged and grossly exaggerating the situation. Take the guy I quote below, whose post shows he not only thinks it isn't funny, he instead instantly determines that ret has no character, no class, is horribly bad mannered, and is making the post out of his jealousy towards grubby because of his 'stagnating skill'. Ummm....
