EPTLooking forward to seeing the bans that'll be handed out in this thread. Pretty much every other post is caster bashing and there's plenty of image macros / memes / sexism / one liners to boot. I have the feeling the TL will be less many a douchebag when the dust settles.

Of the top of my head, the interview Take did with some German girl gamer and the girls only tournament both had bans handed left and right, for posts with everything from "Why isn't she in the kitchen" to "I would". Not as bad as in other forum, but it's there. Though in this case it's more criticism of the casting, I suppose. | ||

Not as bad as in other forum, but it's there. It's not really, and for whatever sexism there is there have been the appropriate actions taken. This is mostly a "who is this" and "I can't understand her" thread. If you want to see a sexist thread, go here. | ||

There's almost zero negative comments about her being a girl. | ||

Looking through the thread now, think I read a bit too much into some lines when glancing over it the first time. Probably just got biased seeing red text and the context of the thread. Ah well, happy to be wrong this time. | ||

The world's most courteous wrecking ball is smashing into the shitty posters of TL, apologizing with every swing. Good show. I would totally be all for a mod fantasy league, JWD would be earning me mad points right now lol | ||

UpHeaVaL was just temp banned for 2 days by Nyovne. That account was created on 2011-02-06 05:27:03 and had 2 posts. Reason: OH MY BUDDHA!!!!! BY THE BEARD OF ZEUS!!!!!! A computer game tournament hosting company in Korea has hired a south east Asian girl to talk about the game online for 2000$ for a month!!!!!!!! In other news, about 100 people on an online forum (most of whom are American, driven by an innate urge to mimic their political systems penchant for slurs) are furious that a south east Asian girl has been hired to talk about "their" video game on an online stream that none of them pay for. Curious note: most of the mob are homosexual who would prefer naked go-go boys who rub each others shoulders talk about their video game instead. LET the "I'm not gay, I'm an intelligent objective critic that must be heard by my forum peers!!!!!!!" begin. Team Liquid forever!!!! Unacceptable, treat others with a different sexual orientation with a bit more respect. What a disgusting post. Nyovne laying down the law. | ||

Maybe Manifesto will remedy that like he did with this: Tony Campolo was just temp banned for 2 days by JWD. That account was created on 2010-12-01 20:09:55 and had 288 posts. Reason: in two lines you called someone's mother a cunt and made a gratuitous, provocative statement about religion. this is like the holy grail of terrible posts in General Tony Campolo was just temp banned for 30 days by Manifesto7. That account was created on 2010-12-01 20:09:55 and had 288 posts. Reason: JWD was way too kind. We will fix that fault soon. In the mean time, get off this site. You're a jerk. | ||

His first offense albeit in his second post already and then in such a way... sigh. We all know how his trip is going to end but I can hope and then hope so more as one in a hundred of these cases actually shapes up and steps away from the randomly offensive accepted internet behavior. So many people just stop to think about how they express themselves on the internet that they just need a good waking up before realising what they hell they are actually doing. Let's just hope this is one of those cases who will turn out to be an examplary member of this community. I guess "lol yeah right, who are you kidding there mister!" is the appropriate response here but as I said, a mod can hope. Plus it's always better to convert then to kill. Sometimes it just takes a bit of work to figure out if the converting should be done with a scourge, a gavel, a carrot or a cannon. | ||
