He requested a return on the basis that he was different now. It was reinstated.

his response to the ban is a pretty good indicator of why he was banned again
You perma-banning an OG 2003 account, unilaterally overriding Drone's decision is like a fat gluttonous foodie eating a 100 year old lobster, or a Lumberjack who in his hubris cuts down an ancient Redwood for firewood.

He compared himself to a tree and a lobster. Two things that are notoriously brainless. Now his posting makes a lot more sense!

Lad is really lacking in self-esteem isn’t he?

Huh. Well he had a pretty shit batting average for truth and good information, but he hadn't strayed fully into "I'm not reading whatever you post' for me just yet. RIP one more dissenting opinion I guess.
-e- for clarity, not trying to contest the validity of the ban. His response to the ban being like a confused boy saying "You can't dump me!?! You NEED me!" is kinda hilarious.

His recent arrogance in the US Politics thread was already cringeworthy, but with that ban-response I can't say I've seen a less-deserving ego for quite some time.

"What Is self-esteem?"

"What is self-awareness?" would be more beneficial to you, I think.

I'll explain it step-by-step so you can understand. You see Living Consciously is a pillar of self-esteem. Self-awareness is a big part of Living Consciously. Thus, self-awareness would be covered in detail during the two hour in depth documentary.

I'll assume this is the kind of detached 'joke' that stands to prove my point. I could be wrong, it could -not- be a joke... unfortunately, that just proves my point even stronger.
You wade through this space oblivious of how often you fail to have meaningful social interactions with other human beings. I could literally go back 10+ years and see the same shit.

So he quit. He made damn sure in his farewell statement he had been relegated to "Blizzard Fan Status" and had zero decision making abilities.
Mike Morhaime is the greatest. That sad look on Mike's face at Blizzcon was because he was sad for the fans because he knew this was coming. He was not sad because he lost his position at Blizzard.. he didn't care. I saw Morhaime standing beside a building he bought in the 2000s for Blizzard to work in. It was a celebration ceremony for Blizzard. The guy bought a fucking giant building worth millions and he must've had $100 worth of clothes on. What a guy. damn...
To Blizzard I say : " you called down the thunder .... now reap the whirlwind " Don't you get tired of talking bs dude? Pretending to understand things you know nothing about and yet writing with such conviction. You went from "understanding" the rts market and now graduated to reading the mind of a blizzard founder.

You wade through this space oblivious of how often you fail to have meaningful social interactions with other human beings. I could literally go back 10+ years and see the same shit. why are you avoiding the subject? i guess you are verifying you don't know what self esteem is. Its ok man, most people do not understand what self esteem is ... and is not. this could've been a "meaningful interaction" had you chosen to discuss the dynamics of self esteem. I guess you are avoiding that?
As far as "meaningful social interactions with other human beings" goes.. those are best IRL. If you've been reading my posts for 10+ years you gotta know I'm a Barcade guy and PC Bang guy. You must know I'm not a sit at home on my PC and play games alone guy.
I propose that "meaningful social interactions with other human beings" happen best IN PERSON... not on web forums. For SC2, TL.Net does a great job; it is not a place to search for "meaningful social interactions with other human beings". BTW, my #1 PC Bang hang-out closed down and the owner, Nick, become a Toronto Police Officer. When I'm in town we hang out.
My favourite video game moments have always been with a gang of people IRL... I hope the same is true for you.
Self Esteem and Happiness + Show Spoiler +So I've helped you with better understanding self esteem. Let's move on and confront the reality that IRL as the best path towards "meaningful social interactions with other human beings". BTW, when my wife played SC2 she was a 1v1 Gold Leaguer and we formed a 2v2 team that sat in either Diamond or Masters. She quit years ago though. In her spare time she plays in a women's competitive pinball league. She minimizes her screen time these days.
Perhaps one day you can voice with us on Discord and tell us all about the people you hang out with IRL while you play games... whether they be video games or air hockey or pinball or baseball or whatever.
What race do your friends and family members play? My wife is a Zerg and her sister is Terran. Xevvex was Protoss. Xevvex big game was Lineage 1. LOLOL. My bum-friend from high school is a Zerg. When I recall his nickname on here I'll post it.
Man, those weekend all nighters @ Net Effect in the 2000s were awesome. The gang at Net Effect that I used to play with #s at around 15. The hilarious thing is.. i still remember what race they play the second i meet them again 10+ years later. I don't get to do that kind of thing as much any longer. That said, the EA NHL '94 Event was May 2,3,4 @ FreePlay though and it brought back some great times.

You can be an asshole or imbecile with incredibly high self esteem, and the inverse. There can be such a thing as too much self esteem
Baal thought he knew better than everyone, got frustrated and started calling people retards, and got banned, which no doubt made him more sure of his martyrdom.
