Idra Banned for 90 Days - Page 91

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.

look how many fans and haters he has, its amazing. he is becoming the face of starcraft. i think as starcraft rises in north america so will greg and will celebrity in no time. i can see it coming.
people are jealous because of his success. my opinion. people are just jealous. i have seen people post so much BS and get nothing for it. well... its sad.


If somebody has so many haters, then he is definitely not the most popular player.

If it's about being the most well-known players, that's probably still boxer and/or some other korean sc1 bonjwas.

It's a good decision. Idra had it coming. Maybe it will make him grow up a little, and stop insulting people.

The idea that it is an assumption that Idra had any ill-intent with his twitter comment is like a mobster defending himself by saying he was merely suggesting his minions pay an enemy "a visit", not that they murder him.


With great power comes great responsibility. IdrA probably knew what his tweet would do.

We don't want to "get anywhere," because TL was perfect before SC2 came out..
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

It already is, but it would be an even better forum

I'm amazed that he hasn't changed or matured over 7 years of time though, its quite ridiculous.

oh you are misunderstanding idra quite a bit. He is a grown up, he is the real deal. sc2 would be a great community again once there is less idra haters (we need some...)

How did the moderation team decide on 90 days? Are there specific guidelines you guys adhere to? Or did you guys just ballpark it?

Also, if you're going to ban him for 90 days, why keep his stream featured? Is it because you still want the ad revenue coming in through from people that come here and click on Idra's stream?

If anything he should be thankful that his stream is still listed, and his TL stream page doesn't have any ads. It helps him more than it helps TL.


just having him on the stream list will bring tl traffic


Teamliquid doesn't need traffic.

believe me they need

Don't be arrogant and pretend to know about things you don't know.

dont diqualify others opinion without bringing your knowladge to the table and explain why they are wrong, not doing so pretty much makes you the arrogant one...

Holy balls! over 600k unique viewers per day, that's pretty amazing. I had no idea TL was that big.

That's not very good logic. Anyone who has a certain number of fans will also have a large amount of haters. More fans ------> more well-known; more well-known ----> more haters.

By your logic Justin Bieber is not popular?

I don't understand the initial ban either.

Idra said what he thought about Cruncher, so what? It wasn't even cursing - it was solely his opinion about another person. Why exactly should he be banned for this? To be honest it seems like TL is being biased towards Cruncher. If someone called me "waste of life" on the forums I wouldn't even react to this as I understand that this person don't even know anything about me.

Earlier in this thread TL said that it has no proof about Cruncher cheating (or not) in his stream and it seems they are ok with this. I don't understand this part either: maybe before banning anyone TL admins should have some sort of investigation on this matter?

It is clear though that TL would not change their decision because it will question their authority on such matters in the future.

P.S. I am not an Idra fan.

P.P.S. Sorry for my grammar, English isn't my native language.

If you think we need different rules and standards then start your own forum. Teamliquid got to where it is for being an amazing community of people with similar interests. And community members don't shit on each other.

What makes you think allowing every negative poster to express their negative thoughts in any way helps teamliquid or esports? Do you want TL to be "just another website" or a place for high quality community driven content? Honestly it isn't difficult to follow the rules and post with at least a little bit of respect.

Just inquiring about warning/banning rules.

You can be ban if you disagree with TL on a matter?

I don't quite understand why this guy has been warned and banned but i'll happily heard any explanation.
If my post looks ironical, it is not, i don't quite control my word well as i am not a native speaker.

Yeah I think that's the thing that upsets me about the ban. I'm a fan of Idra, but really, he's just another player as far as the game goes. It's TL's outdated allegiance to this notion everyone has to dress their Sunday best on an internet forum that's distressing. As much as some people want to believe, the growth of e-sports (which is what I really really want to see) does not come down to regulating the internet sandbox (as some earlier poster so eloquently stated). And I'm worried they'll refuse to acknowledge that when they have such an incredible platform to move the scene forward.

Why do you think we're the biggest site for SC.


Because you had the existing infrastructure and there's no other serious competitors?
