In a work environment...people are there to earn a living. If they are unhappy with their workplace, one would think that they try to apply for other jobs and leave amicably rather wait for someone to fire them? With regards to your quote ^ - That's not true. Have you ever worked in a work environment with people under you with motivation problems? I have, and I have remedied said motivation problems. You find out why they are not performing and help them through it with constructive and positive feedback. You identify which areas they perform well in and you tell them "Good job here and here but I think this this and this needs a bit more focus and if you need any help - please ask and do not feel afraid to approach me". You support your non-performing staff member(s) instead of telling them they suck and they should look for work elsewhere. Also: it's actually quite difficult to fire people here lol. Employment Laws give people a lot of rights these days. It's easier / more productive to fix the troubled employee than outright get rid of them.

That is a fair point and I have no problem with people giving feedback about things that aren't working. I actually have this problem with the software we use at my workplace and I always give feedback to the supplier. However, some of the feedback that's given here is hardly constructive feedback - the way I read some of it is more so emotional rage and complaints rather than explicitly stating what's not working and under what conditions. The way in which people communicate problems is very important. In my line of work - I provide services to people and I need to make sure that my clients are receiving the best possible service. However, there have been two or three occasions where I have messed up and my clients have complained to me. And I'll tell you something - the clients that were sincere and told me I made a mistake in a friendly manner got their problems solved and fixed up a lot faster than the client who berated me over the telephone questioning every little thing that I did and told me "if you can't do your job properly, you shouldn't be doing it at all." At the end of the day, I just think we should be more articulate when explaining problems than the usual "Rant, this is broken..I wasted my money/I'm not wasting my money with this game. Bye Blizzard" complaints. | ||

Players who are frequently reported for Abusive Chat in StarCraft II will now be given a Silence Penalty So.. What's to stop people from reporting everybody who plays the wrong race? If you make the threshold small (like 3-5 reports) then it'll get triggered by mad opponents all the time cause you built the "wrong" units. If it's huge, people can do whatever they want and not worry about it triggering. automatic unmoderated punishment for clicking a button just seems like a terrible idea. I've been silenced in LoL without saying anything at all for the last 20 games and Riot spent a LOT of time working on that stuff. | ||

Funny bug when i drop mules: ![[image loading]](http://static.tweakers.net/ext/f/G24CFtx43UXz7H34q8ZgWRhe/full.png) My hypothesis is that dropping a mule lowers the harvester count on the CC (the x/16 number) by 1. Case 1: No. of SCVs = No. of MULEs So if you have 1 SCV and 1 MULE mining, the CC shows 0/16. Same for 2 SCVs and 2 MULEs, 3 SCVs and 3 MULEs, etc. This data is consistent with my hypothesis. Case 2: No. of SCVs > No. of MULEs If you have 2 SCVs and 1 MULE mining, the CC shows 1/16. In general, for X MULEs and Y SCVs, the CC shows Y - X harvesters. Case 3: No. of SCVs < No. of MULEs This scenario is when the worker counter goes nuts. Let's say you have 1 MULE and 0 SCVs. Then the worker counter shows a hilariously large number, which is undoubtedly the result of a counter with no ability to handle negative numbers instead displaying the max number possible in the engine, or perhaps the max number - 1, depending on how the worker counter is coded. | ||

Not sure if i like the fact battle.net decide which server I play on based on lag. This is not user friendly bc there's no one universal account across all servers. In Asia, I am Plat. In NA, I am diamond. Each account has diff stats. Unless they are willing to merge all my accounts to one and that's the one i log on regardless which server i am connecting to, that will make sense. Side point, i don't understand why don't they just have one account across all servers from the beginning. | ||

I for my part appreciate that Blizzard is much more communicative about their changes and their reasoning behind it than before | ||

Agree with this ^ I always used to tell my friends - hey look the TL community, they're not as bitchy as some of the other communities out there. Now I can barely tell myself that. Nearly every thread I read these days is filled with some kind of negativity aimed at Blizzard. As I mentioned before, if you're unhappy - Just quit playing. Leave SC2 and leave this forum while you're at it. We turned into the republican debate :/ | ||

LotV has some interesting aspects, but the fact that for many people, the game became damn near unplayable spoils nearly all of it. The have had a long beta, then they use HotS to test their actual coding side stuff on Hots, totally unoptimized, mention something about Win10 user problems, and absolutely ignore that many, many people that are not on Win10 suffered serious performance issues? And just humptydump along like there aren't a thousand posts on it on Bnet. When they use people that bought a game to test the new game, and then act like all is hunky dorry...it tends to piss people off that still play it (and not LotV...even when I had a beta key...dont ask unless you really want to know). It cements the idea that they actually don't give a shit about the people that have given them their green, but only whose new green they can grab. Why should we think that LotV will be any more playable that HotS is at the moment? You actually think we are happy to give more money at this juncture? Nope. I will probably have to wait a loooong time to convince myself it is worth it. | ||

I don't know why people are so surprised that a huge patch like the one we just had is going to work all fine and well, then go on assuming it will not be improved, just because we have improvement elsewhere. | ||

The 1v1 multiplayer loading screen has been refreshed to display race-specific art to match the race selection of each player. New art sucks, needs to be improved because it looks way too much cartoonish. They cut hydralisk's tail also. I already disliked marine/hydra/zealot pop out when you choose race now they applied this thing into loading screen. Do they think that players are blind so they need to make huge ass portraits of units for per race so player will I know " Ah, this seem to be Zerg". | ||
