EPTWhy it is a bad necro ?
The guy made a decent post about the popularity of fighting games worldwide. It think it was a better idea to bump this thread than to make a new one.

Maybe the mod didnt feel it added enough content, maybe they really didn't really like the necro after 3 months, maybe it was the fact he misspelled SC:BW. | ||

Fat.CaT was just banned by Chill. That account was created on 2011-03-18 17:11:27 and had 12 posts. Reason: I think TL mods are way too kind. You have 12 posts and 2 warnings (3 including this "warning"). 25% of your quotes are fucking terrible. To some that's a 2-day ban. But I'm not like some. See you! Bring back old school banning where justice was dished out like woah | ||

But seriously, I think it was just someone being retarded by making the opposite of a mod's name. Its like making your account named (Whatever the opposite of Chill is) or Cold_Bid. | ||

Does that mean the opposite of Harem is the "forever alone" image meme? This is a fun game. | ||

1) You can search through someone's post by clicking their profile, but sometimes it doesn't do it from newest to oldest for some reason. Meaning you have to guess randomly. Though you can also make educated guesses trying to match the dates of the ban to how recent the thread is or the description of their ban. For example: Diks ban http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=32696¤tpage=600#12008 While I did eventually find his post that got banned (can guess based off mod reason) when I did search through the toolbar and profile his most recent post which got him banned was not at the top. He did not make any newer posts beyond his ban post and the top result are "old posts." Search with toolbar (doesn't even show his ban post) http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/search.php?q=Diks&t=c&f=-1&u=Diks&gb=date Profile search (does closer to bottom, it's the gun thread) http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/search.php?q=&t=c&f=-1&u=Diks&gb=date 2) Second problem is it's hard to find the post explaining why someone got banned. If a thread is a week old your only solution is to check when the post was made and check TL bot posts in the ban list thread for around that time. This can be a problem since the ban can come later than the post and their might be an active LR thread. Even worse when you're just the icon saying they're banned and not the post that got them banned. searching closed section for Diks does not bring you to his ban reason post http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/search.php?q=&t=c&f=0&u=Diks&gb=date Even the results for myself are bad when using search bar or profile's posts (top result is a post from 2009), however clicking Posts for your own profile (under "Logout: Username") seems accurate linking to this post for top results, http://www.teamliquid.net/mytlnet/myposts.php but I don't know how to reach that same accurate list for other users, without being a mod. | ||

From the website feedback forum, regarding why it's not possible to search through an individual thread: On March 02 2011 02:52 R1CH wrote: This isn't added because people would expect the results to be real-time, and they aren't. Search is only updated once every two hours. This may be a factor in the issue you describe (not being able to find the relevant post right after the ban). | ||

It pisses me off that the average TL.net user seems to be slowly devolving into the average GameFAQs user. Unfortunately, there's not much we can do about it except warn / ban the offenders, and even then, they just keep coming back. How do you handle this, mods? How do you keep from falling into an endless abyss of despair and hopelessness? As the final bastion of sanity and lawfulness on Teamliquid, how do you manage to fight the good fight without being consumed by despondency and anguish?  | ||

Its just a side effect of the continued growth of teamliquid, the posting quality has always been very important to the mods here and they do an awsome job of weeding out the freeloaders from those who contribute. In the past we've had forum wide purges for when this gets out of control. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=74633 | ||
