Like, can Kennigit pull rank on Chill? Or is just a shiny blue bar made to trick the simple-minded into believing they have higher status?
Technically I'm sure he could, but it's never happened to me. There does seem to be a natural pecking order however, where I would make my case strongly heard and if he didn't back down I'd be forced to concede. I've never seen admin pull rank.
I'd imagine administrators discuss more high level policies, business deals and money. Money, membership, and "how can we get more value" kinds of things are never discussed at the moderator level.
Maybe they're not even talked at the admin level? I have no idea O_o

My biggest contribution to Teamliquid was programming an army of robots who would download Broodwar VODs off Korean websites, create torrents off them, upload and seed them to the TL tracker, upload them to http://www.youtube.com/nevake , message other cool heads on TL so they could update the Small Vod Thread and probably more. Some of those guys even knew haiku and sent neat PMs to other staff members. With the advent of SC2 not many people know about those days, but the mule fits in well with the robot theme I feel.
A few people have asked, but it hasn't been answered yet, so again: Is liquid looking into picking up any more progamers, especially with the new razer sponsorship?

Yeah we pretty much just discuss the boring stuff. The ad slot, TSL/Liquid sponsorships, which sponsored threads to accept, any interaction w/businesses (which is mostly NDA'd), and overall site direction.
Do you guys ever wake up in the morning and think to yourself: "I'm the admin/mod of the best online gaming community, I'm such a big deal, fuck yeah!"

I wake up, see a bunch of open reports and think to myself "Son of a bitch!"

Just quoting this because Im extremely curious as well. As someone who once read all of Ziggy's posts (he doesn't have that many) I'm surprised he hasn't been banned which makes me think he is a smurf or something.
