This one was already answered and in nutshell answer is yes.

mainly covering wc4 I would doubt, though it could definitly recieve a subforum same way as LoL did.

What do you mean? A LoL subforum on TL? Where is that?

We have banned people for bad behavior outside of TL before. I don't think a simple one time insult would trigger anything though, it would have to be something more drastic

I did do a search, http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/search.php?q=flying monkey
but all the threads just raise more questions than answer them.
So what's the story behind the flying monkeys?

It came from a rank icon TL lore thread where people where trying to reverse engineer the rank icon algorithm.

Which brings up the question: What is the algorithm for determining rank icons?? Any staff members going to answer that?

LOL. I don't actually want an answer so don't unleash the monkeys!

Some members have preformed some actions in poor taste in live events, local meetings, and other places. As a result they were no longer understood as a member of this community. If you search hard enough you'll find multiple instances of this happening.

I suppose the rule applies, don't be an asshole.

Be very, very, very good at this game, have won a few tournaments, and make sure you contribute to this community a LOT.

Then he might.

Basically just get noticed by people and you'll start getiing invited to tournaments. and teams. The Liquid team is incredibly exclusive so it's not very likely.

And being a former BW player and/or a mod helps.

Destiny was temp banned for telling his viewers to bash someone on his own stream (which is outside TL)
Can't remember the exact reason, but it was triggered by something he said on his stream

Destiny was temp banned in the past for encouraging his stream viewers to spam on TL. This was a long time ago I believe.

Regardless, what Zatic said is accurate.

Plexa and Chill have also banned TL members who had BM'd them horribly on the ladder.

that sounds eerily similar to what IdrA did. Is that sort of thing common?

There is none. I have never seen anyone get a marine at less than 250 posts unless it was changed manually by a moderator. You get each icon at set intervals of time you've been here and post count, so someone who's been here a year with 50 posts will not be a marine. He needs to have been here for three months and have 250 posts otherwise he will not get it. I won't reveal any more of the intervals for fear of the monkeys.

Oh by the way mods, that's pretty common knowledge. In the monkey thread, Kennigit (or some admin) actually revealed that interval. He wouldn't say more, so I will not say more.
