Time for a Terran funny article thats sorta serious aswell I think The Book of Protoss bullshit was very different than Lings of Liberty and ZParcraft 2. It was a legit strategy guide with a lot of very useful build orders that was written with a lot of humor involved as well. Completely different purpose and tone than the others.
And who can forget about The Elephant in the Room.

But it was/is even more controversial than the others mentioned.
So either way, this isn't the first or the last time TL will put out an article that generates this kind of buzz.

The Great Book was horrific, I enjoyed the article but not so much my subsequent laddering.

Thing is i don't remember TheDwf balance whining and getting ban for it. He is in general a nice poster no ? (For what i recall he is) I think he started all "helps me" threads.
I'm so surprise there's no ban in 700ish posts for now.

I'm so surprise there's no ban in 700ish posts for now. I banned one person. But it was a ban for being an idiot so I don't know if that counts?

It doesn't. Unless the guy made a post in website feedback calling out KwarK for whatever reason.

Most balance whiners are being idiots when they balance whine though.

I am a bit surprised there hasn't been more of that coming from the why sc2 is dying blog tbh.
|
I am a bit surprised that this blog wasn't closed.

I actually decided not to report it. What was I thinking? But it's still open with recent posts in it, so I dunno. >.>

Isn't the blog section made for stuff like that? I mean you could just ignore it if you think it stinks, no? After you have given it the lowest of rating, of course.
|
Hey, that blog isn't as bad as it could have been.
To be fair, I expected the absolute worst.

Oh man guys, a new balance thread in the general forums. All the normal players are there. Terran whiners, arm chair designers and Bisu's Dagger wondering when LotV will come out. This should be a good one.
