If anything though I think it should be EvilGamers going to IdrA and telling him to watch his mouth (or fingers in this case?). I know if I was a team coach I wouldn't be okay with any players under me acting like that in a forum. | ||

I am quite sure he'd be long gone if he wasn't able to produce a few diamonds in the midst of all that shit. IdrA has made invaluable contributions to the strategy forum and his opinions on the state of the game are great to read whenever he actually feels like explaining his thought process. If only he was able to keep out all the vomit inducing bm and bannable content from his posts I feel like he would be considered one of the bigger contributors. | ||

A lot of hate flying around in that thread. Glad to see he still gets the same rules, albeit a far lighter sentence. That second part upsets me more than anything else though. I think it's hard to strike a balance between giving progamers more leeway because of what they do, or holding them to higher standards because of the community they go out and represent.

But leeway stretched beyond a certain point just becomes lawless. Some leeway is fine, but having plenty of temp bans in your history, calling someone retarded, and then getting a 2-day ban doesn't entirely sit right with me. Not saying this is actually "lawless", just that it bugs me. And I definitely understand that he does contribute greatly to the whole community when he chooses to be productive with his posts/comments. When he has those kinds of constructive moments, I have a lot of respect for him. But when he comes in and acts like an entitled rager, or holding a grudge (if Husky's comment is to be believed) I lose much of that respect. | ||

And that's the leeway he gets, anyone else would get a worse punishment. Maybe it peeves you that he might get too much leeway and thats ok but exactly how much leeway he gets is a subjective quantity[lol mental block on the right word to use here =/] decided upon by the mods. | ||

If some random person with 100 mediocre posts (me, for instance) calls people retarded he's easily made himself a net drain on the community. Not letting a player as famous as IdrA post on a site dedicated to following professional Starcraft would be a pretty big loss, so he'd have to do something really serious to get any kind of meaningful punishment. It's up to the mods to decide just how badly IdrA has to behave before having him around is no longer worth it.I know, I read the commandments when I joined.

tits was just banned by micronesia. titties was just banned by Puosu. boobs was just banned by Puosu. since this guy can't post until he finds a name that he likes, I'll just ask for him- what would be an acceptable name that both he and the mods can agree on? hooters? honkers? | ||

Funbags is a nice, whimsical name. The innuendo is still present, but not nearly as blatant as with the first three names, and it can easily be passed off as just another weird, but comical, username. | ||

Also, when he used to post in political/religious topics, IdrA was pretty good. He'd definitely flame less than other people. He was also pretty good in the BW Strategy section. Even without being a top pro gamer, IdrA has contributed a lot, in between the stupid flames. | ||

All the flames and bans are hilarious. | ||

 Even though there are many professionals out there who understand the game much better, he's garnering much attention, etc.; in fact, he's almost the "new face of esports", if you will! + Show Spoiler + Though it's not *ahem* a pretty face...  | ||
