It was pretty shitty for sure. However most of the perms for balancing whining are after multiple temp bans and people continuing to do so and not changing their posting.
TL’s mods give people the chance to reflect and improve their posting, and hopefully that change is taken on board.
TL is pretty damn strictly moderated compared to other places on the internet, especially in the realm of gaming. New posters frequently fall foul of this, but if they choose to stick around and behave themselves I’d prefer that than someone being permed, getting angry and going to other places where shitty attitudes are prevalent.

Sure but I Don t think that racism and Balance whinning should be treated eben remotly equally.
Balance whinning is (mostly) blaming someone else (Balance Team, the other race, Borken strats) for what is in 99,99% your own fault and toxic. But that is it.
Racism Kills people. It gives people like Trump, Jonson, Le pen or Höcke Power.

Well, unfortunately Terran didn't win the tournament so therefore the game isn't balanced. Better luck next time bois

TY,
Perhaps I unsuccessfully chose the moment to watch and spoke out unrestrainedly. It’s just that in Russia the problems with diversity seem too far-fetched and the poet often annoys me. I do not consider myself racist, but racist jokes do not become less funny because of this. And good jokes cannot be bad.
On the other hand, there was no slavery in a race for a specific category of citizens, but in America it was 100 years ago
It’s quite funny to read how some people trigger such statements
As for the fact that I have been watching starcraft since 2014 and have not seen this caster. Perhaps it was later that I did not watch cheesedelfia. And so in the 14th year, I took 1st place on Likibet since I watched 95% of matches for half a year

I dont know what you're going on about but slavery was abolished over 150 years ago in the US, same time as it was in Russia.

But in the USA only black people were in slavery, probably because of a slightly different look. For example, when in Russian ballet white actors are painted black to play the role of a black man. This causes aggression from black Americans. Read funny posts on instagram. For reference, Russia has less than one black per 10 thousand people.

Calm down. There wasn't anything he said that was racist, whatsoever. It was more of a commentary against the organizers—an accusation of blatant diversity hiring practice, which is mostly frowned upon. Obviously he wasn't satisfied with tempo's post-game commentary either. You guys need not throw around accusation of racism so liberally. I think tempo's very entertaining, and provides great sc2 content, but not everyone has to agree.

By the way, when can we get more Neebs and Scarletts on this giant continent?? It's so sad; Blizzard is based here, yet we fall severely behind EU. Bleh!
