GREG is undoubtedly the MOST POPULAR starcraft player EVER!!! 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. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popularity If it's about being the most well-known players, that's probably still boxer and/or some other korean sc1 bonjwas. | ||

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

I dont know why the admins feel such a need to moderate every word of every post so thoroughly. Frankly as one of the biggest sites for SC I think it time to completetly overhaul their forum rules, of course if they actually care about the expansion of eSports. If every visitor is banned for expressing their opinion I dont think were getting anywhere -.- We don't want to "get anywhere," because TL was perfect before SC2 came out.. | ||

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...) | ||

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? | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||
