If I were to describe in one line: a very popular british caster who is proficient in play-by-play casting and boasts the ability to create excitement in a match that is already heavily anticipated or awesome in whole or in part. | ||

I don't know, it seems pretty clear to me. Some people care more than others about being right on the Internet all of the time. That's the scale. Idra is on one side, TB is on the other. It's funny how someone mentioned Incontrol, because those two are pretty much alike in that they have to respond to every piece of criticism that goes their way. Honestly, it's a feeling I can sympathize with. These guys aren't trained celebrities, and Internet fame can be crushing. | ||

TB does alot for this community. Even more so since he started streaming his own games. He gives newcomers a fundament to start from and takes alot of that "laddering fear". People see his cast of own games and think that his play compared to the games he is casting is atrocious. Rightfully so but that gives those a strong feeling of familiarity and lessens the hesitation to start playing 1on1 ladder to learn. I, myself, always found that TB is amazing to listen to. Even though he uses phrases like "quite nicely" and "by the looks of it" far too often lately but after all he is not a professional caster by any means yet. I personally enjoy all his casts and he does exceptionally well as play-by-play caster. For the future I hope he can get his temper on the forums under control and start from that. There's no need for him to diminish his reputation by answering flamebaits and fanboys in such a manner. On the other hand I'd love moderators would develop a sense to detect hidden flamebaits more quickly since that'd reduce those outbreaks by a huge margin. Further it should be in their interest to "protect" people of public interest more on such boards in providing a higher standard in threads where those are involved. | ||

We have someone complaining about their friend's girlfriend, whose friend joins in to complain about the OP friend, which prompts the original OP's friend to join in to calm things down? TL Drama FTW! As for dream)xero I don't feel so bad anymore. Seems even some of the mods got taken in. I mean just reading the first couple pages of this blog I see multiple mods, including Chill  http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=133695¤tpage=2 There must have been some serious rage after that one!

Reason: You seem to have a fascination with dicks and asses (not that there's anything wrong with that.) You need to put a lot more effort into being a decent poster, and unless the topic is directly pertaining to those two subjects, please don't write silly juvenile flames like "go eat a bowl of hot dicks." Is it serendipity that a guy fixated with dicks and asses got banned with 69 posts?  | ||

Prawns and shrimp are two differnet things, to that guy who said prawns. as creatures, they're two different things, but as food they are so close in flavour and appearance that they are pretty much the same thing. i just call it all prawns and I've never heard anyone in australia call it shrimp  | ||

I love his casting, but he always has a knack for being there everytime someone says they don't like him or have a problem with him. We have a joke over at Penny Arcade where I frequent too, that Totalbiscuit appears if you say his name three times. He has an account on PA too and shows up quite often whenever we spark a discussion about him. | ||

I really like TB's casting, was introduced to it via IGN PL. He should definitely grow some thicker skin though it seems. edit: this gem from the vancouver riot thread earned a 2 day: On June 16 2011 14:12 zEF wrote: Canucks fans, I'm happy for y'all and Imma let you finish,but L.A. had one of the best riots of all time.

Nothing-to-No-One was just temp banned for 2 days by Manifesto7. That account was created on 2011-06-16 09:26:38 and had 15 posts. Reason: "Since when was the speed of sound $19.99? There is no equation that relates the physical being of sound waves to what is charged for them. You cannot say what would motivate a person in such a way. The fact that there is a long list of artists who post their music for free on line is the only argument I need against you. Digital music is no hard product and should not be sold as such. What if God started charging for births(clearly to religious people). What if parents charged their children for limbs as clearly they're the ones who gave them to their child. Just because someone can make money off of making sharing wrong doesn't mean you should." In a just world, you would be forced to read this every day for the rest of your life. Nothing-to-No-One was just temp banned for 2 days by Manifesto7. That account was created on 2011-06-16 09:26:38 and had 15 posts. Reason: "Let us talk about selfishness then. In North Korea the government is selfish when considering the quality of life for Kim Jong il and the average citizens quality of life. Wouldn't you say if Kim Jong shared more like computers, Internet, and free speech he would enable his citizens to do more then be oppressed and maybe create intuitive works other then synchronized dancing?" I actually unbanned you and am now rebanning you for this statement, because it is as crazy as the god-charging-parents-for-babies thing. In the quiet words of the virgin Mary "Come again?" He certainly knows how to put together a sentence that makes no sense. Edit: Grammar | ||

I posted this in the W.F sub-forum by mistake. | ||

Edit: Grammar Well the first one was a logical facepalm, but I don't get why people are up in arms about the second one. If North Korea gave their citizens access to things like the Internet and stopped censoring speech, there's a pretty good chance it'd lead to increased innovation by citizens of NK. I'm clearly missing something here. | ||
