Here in the upper midwest, temps are regularly -10 or lower in the winter and 90+ in the summer. Might explains the Day9 thread though. It's like how crime rates go up when it gets really hot in the summer. How do you survive the -10? I'm fine with 75-105 but when it gets below 60 I find myself reacting with winter coats and central heating. Best explanation I've heard for that thread other than many people fail to understand that there exist in English separate words for "couldn't" and "forgot to", or that capitalist economies do not have grand arbiters to announce how to fairly divide wealth in every situation. | ||

You survive temps like that by staying dry and layering. | ||

There are people here who walk around in shorts and sandals when there's frost on the ground because to do otherwise means admitting winter exists - I really don't understand how they can do that. | ||

Location: 'Merica Join Date: 26th of March 2011 Race: Terran In his life on TL, he only has three temp bans. However, this does not tell the real tale of MechKing and his ways of posting. The Bans Unfortunately, our good friend MechKing wasn't able to keep himself from making a ban-worthy post for long. May 07 2011, MechKing made the following post: On May 07 2011 15:01 MechKing wrote: This is not a balance whine, so please don't take it this way. But protoss is definitely the single most boring race to watch... nobody makes it look good. It always just looks like a huge deathball destroying everything, no cool micro or anything. Really boring imo. That said, I realize that inca won fair and square so congrats to him! User was temp banned for this post. MechKing was just temp banned for 2 days by EvilTeletubby. That account was created on 2011-03-26 06:06:29 and had 579 posts. Reason: Saying it's not whining doesn't actually MEAN it's not whining.  Perhaps even more surprisingly (or not, in retrospect), as early as May 11 2011, a mere 2 days after he was unbanned, he made this post: On May 11 2011 10:09 MechKing wrote: + Show Spoiler + User was temp banned for abusing spoilers. Don't bother opening them — the text inside is just "That's the joke." MechKing was just temp banned for 2 days by JWD. That account was created on 2011-03-26 06:06:29 and had 607 posts. This is really annoying. Never do this again please. ... And was, of course, banned for it. Sorry, only baller can make that spoiler within spoiler stuff look cool. Well, after getting another two day ban, MechKing took a look back at his TL career, and he pondered. And he thought. And he pondered, and he eventually came to the conclusion tha- MechKing was just temp banned for 30 days by Harem. That account was created on 2011-03-26 06:06:29 and had 2987 posts. Reason: learn how to post properly or you won't be here much longer  Before we reach the grand finale of his posting, which ended in a minor posting spree after he was unbanned, let's look back at all of his warnings: On May 24 2011 12:26 MechKing wrote: My face when ace match MajOr vs Kiwikaki: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/WfnSt.jpg) User was warned for this post On July 01 2011 13:11 MechKing wrote: I don't understand why people waste money on a keyboard.

Usually it's protoss players with one of their "x gate" all ins. 5 gate or 6 gate are the most common ones. Also cheesy stuff like proxy rax/gates, 3 gate void all ins, or baneling bust. I'll usually just call them names or something, because why waste my time with that garbage? On October 20 2011 14:25 MechKing wrote: how can people like this garbage?

It's always a good feeling when a repetitively terrible poster gets permed. TL Mods. Cleaning up the internet one crap poster at a time. | ||

I wonder if there is a direct correlation between the mods saying more when they ban people and all of us doing more research. ABL is looking way better recently, on topic and interesting as opposed to wildly off topic and hilarious. Of course that could just be the resual of the IRC so we don't dick around in here too much. | ||

Agreed, Poopi's posts outside of his bans weren't really interesting, they were mostly just average/strategy posts. He was always slightly condescending, but it was nothing worth analyzing. However, with someone like MechKing (or Kamais_Ookin, who i'm doing next [probably], seriously, the guy has a ton of bans and warnings), their posting histories as a whole define them behaviorally more than their bans do, and are much more interesting to view in the big picture (I find this is especially the case for kamais, who I believe got to make a new account unless i'm mistaken O_o) | ||

GoRushKinG was just banned by Ares[Effort]. That account was created on 2012-05-27 08:06:53 and had 6 posts. Reason: Previously banned user. Don't know who this actually is but his post was pretty hilarious: On May 28 2012 06:25 GoRushKinG wrote: HOLD ON GUYS I CANT FIT ALL THESE KOREAN PROGAMERS DICKS IN MY MOUTH User was banned for this post. Obviously an amateur, anyone in this site (at least in the BW/SC2 section) should be able to to fit an infinite amount of Korean progamer dicks in their mouth. Edit: also I'm drunk. | ||

That movie should definitely cast Flamewheel in a major role. OP makes me curious what other elites of society the mods have banned through the years. Obviously Combat-Ex doesn't count. | ||

lulutheking was just temp banned for 2 days by heyoka. That account was created on 2012-04-21 08:17:15 and had 84 posts. Reason: You got warned 3 times today and keep making terrible posts, cool off and start thinking before you post. Three times!? In one day! Holy hell. That's... mildly impressive. In it's own right.
