DEATH TO THE CONFORMISTS

ahahah i am the first one that did not express initial sentiment with everyone else, as such you are all bandwagoners to this amazing interview.

But really good interview TaKe, hope to see more of these soon!

Can't wait to attend a TL meetup sometime!

good interview. I met zatic at blizzcon 09 for a little bit. I sat next to him during the 1st BW cast for a few minutes. I don't think he really liked me at all lol

Aww no I am sure that's not how it went. I am terrible with Names/IDs and probably didn't catch yours.
Another likely explanation would be that I was terribly tired/hungover.

It shuts down or discourages a lot of legitimate discussion. To be honest, there's certain players or members I don't criticize, simply because:

a) I know they have the freedom to troll me, without reprecussion.
b) Other posters will become immediately defensive, misinterpret my comments, and accuse me of trolling or being an idiot for having the audacity of questioning 'a pro'.

This is not how it works and it's unfortunate that you think so. As long as you are polite and you have a point you should feel free to post it. Look at this thread:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=167392

No name poster gives his rather unpopular opinion about well known figures. But he does so reasonably and mannerly. Huge crowd of donkeys feels the need to jump all over his post. The donkeys, not the OP, are the ones that got warned/banned.

That being said if you criticize a well known poster/player and don't have a point you brought all the flames on you yourself.

I don't think this thread is a good example of a bandwagon. My impression is that it's rather a group of high post-count users teaming up on easy pray. Which is probably even worse than a bandwagon since veteran users should know better.
We've had such teaming up threads for years. It's probably one of the points where TLs moderation is too forgiving.

In general it's hard to moderate posts which by themselves are not ban worthy, but together with many similar ones drown the good posts in a sea of mediocrity.

I agree with the bandwagon effect.

Alot of the time when a high profile poster makes a comment there are 50 replies whose purpose is to suck up to that poster. The most obvious ones are the red names and rekrul.

Very professional. This is what the level of content needs to be for esports to gain some real rep outside of the "netizen" kind of scene.
Perspective is merely an angle.

I can see why many would believe there is a bandwagon effect on TL and in many cases its true because hell, just about everyone doesn't read the entire thread. They don't know the conversation and instead intrude upon it like a black sheep.

Here's the catch:

1. Some people are better at communicating ideas, better speakers, etc. You get the idea.
2. Sometimes they just beat you to the punch, so there isn't much more to be said. This happens more often than not. Why regurgitate something that has already been said, especially if they fall under category one?

It's simple logic. I guess it also helps when most of the veterans are well over the age of twenty and have lots of experience.

That's my defense at least because I agree with many vets regardless of their color. Great minds are allowed to think alike, although it can get monotonous quick. I for one don't kiss ass. Not even my girlfriend's ass. She can defend herself.

I actually think zatic lowballed the staff count a bit. The subtitles were a little off at times, but not so much as to cause problems. Other than that, great interview.

Also, what took from zatic's comments about the bandwagon effect is this:
1) Always disagree with everyone in the community while talking with the community
2) Always agree with everyone in the community while talking with another community

IMO it should be the 11th commandment.
