Hello, all! It's become quite apparent that many of you are not reading the first post carefully. Failure to do so in the future will be met with swift punishment. And as always, remember to be civil. Thanks, Empyrean. Time stamp: 03:59 KST. | ||

He should've been perma-banned until he was willing to come back and ask for a second chance. Let him try to convince the mods that he should regain posting privileges. Until he's willing to act like a responsible human being, he doesn't deserve to post. IMHO. | ||

Each time they ban him like this it creates a whole tidal wave of posts and needless attention to something thats nothing more then just smack talk. In a odd way each time admins ban him it just widens his fan base >.< Also if TL, and other big SC communities, wish to promote eSports this sort of banter should be tolerated to a certain extent (Especially within player fanclubs). It helps fuel competition and is within many sports today. I understand this is TL's website and they can make and enforce their own rules, but really the site has grown a lot from what it was 10 years ago and they arent a small private community any more. However, some people such as a certain TL member on last weeks "State of the Game" have an extreme sense of entitlement and believe that you must not make a post unless it directly contributes to the community. This type of thinking, and I realize this does not represent everyone on TL, doesnt really help the growth of eSports. Hes already held to a lower standard then the rest of posters. If most people posted shit like him they would have been perma banned long ago. The mods have to moderate his stuff otherwise they get the "IdrA did it and got away with it" routine. As to not making posts unless they contribute, its an excellent rule in certain sections of the site. It improves the signal to noise ratio and stops silly one liner replies and memes becoming the norm. | ||

I am disappointed that he is banned, especially for this long. Is there any way that this could be nullified before the 90 days? No. Idra himself said he didnt regret his decision. | ||

I think he isnt going to get unbanned, TL's mods are very discreet and likey continue the 90 days ban. | ||

That is nice and all, but it is still a view on the site and indirect free advertising for Teamliquid provided by Idra's stream. It is in teamliquid's interest to embed Idra's stream (branding and all that other fancy marketing jazz; just because they don't get direct ad value from the page doesn't mean they get no value), and if it were not for his direct request that it be removed I would be fine with this decision. However Idra has personally asked that his stream not be listed on this site while he is banned and they are disregarding his wishes. Maybe they should re-work the stream link to just be a link to JustinTV and not to an embeded teamliquid page in the interest of transparency and accountability. *On a side note, if a person really did not want their stream to appear on teamliquid can justinTV file a DMCA takedown notice for reproducing copyrighted material? I am unclear how that would actually work for their streaming service. | ||

and no because if a person did not want TL to not list his stream he would tell them to not list his stream,why would he need JTV to file a DMCA. | ||

What the flying fuck are you talking about? There is also zero proof that Cruncher was not watching IdrA's stream... that's fucking cute. Let's ban everyone on TL since while there's no proof that they're cheaters, there's no proof that they aren't cheaters either. You need solid evidence before you punish someone, there is no solid evidence against Cruncher. What is IdrA's evidence and testifiers(what the fuck?)? Who are these testifiers and why are they relevant? What is his evidence? People stream snipe all the fucking time, TL doesn't really consider this inappropriate so in this regard, Cruncher did nothing wrong. IdrA has been sniped by his teammates, a lot of people stream snipe each other. Outside of him stream sniping, we have no evidence that he actually cheated. IdrA remained consistent with his style during the IPL and Cruncher countered it. It wasn't something uncharacteristic from IdrA that couldn't possibly have been predicted and wasn't something astoundingly unorthodox from Cruncher. You don't have anything. No one has anything. IdrA misbehaved and was temp-banned for it. Stream sniping is not considered an issue as of now. | ||
