It takes time to mow through all of that stupidity. Also I feel like the ban for balance whine should be upped, especially since there is a huge mod warning at the top of the thread.

Sometimes I read some comments and write up a huge insulting post about how stupid their comment is, and stop halfway because I realize the comment is so ignorant it's pointless to tell them that. Then I sigh and quit my reply before I can post it and start an argument.
Some people on the Internet... I swear.
And I don't even go into Live Report threads anymore.
EDIT: Big mistake going to the IEM thread to see what the rage was about.

The LR for IEM made me so sad. T_T
Also the size of the mod note at the top of the thread made me lol. It's about 3 times the size of most of those. Can't wait to read the bans. XD
This made me lol:
Sanchonator was just temp banned for 2 days by Empyrean.

I've collapsed the Fan Clubs, User Streams, Tech Support, Dota, LoL, and all SC2 and BW forums. My only interaction with them is through the moderation queue :/
(although sometimes I'll open up BW just for a peek).

This banwave right now, might make the LR-thread for GSL tomorrow bareable 
Then maybe the Balancewhiners might be spread into diffrent groups, that randomly return from bans.
|
Normally I come to this thread to have a few lulzes at people being stupid,but after this shit today it really makes me sad.
|
I'm glad I skipped reading the live report for IEM. I glanced over a few pages and stuck to IRC.

Your reports help a ton, and TL users have been great with that lately, but it's still somewhat slow and usually has to happen retroactively.

While we're on this subject, I asked 3 times in the "Ask Staff" thread and got nothing.
Is Ziggy Stardust a staff member in disguise?

I agree that 2 days doesn't seem like enough. Balance whine in a LR thread should incur a ban equal to the duration of the tournament and in the case of really long tournaments, should be 5 day IMO.
It really sucks for those of us who didn't watch the tournament, I wanted to find out what all the "controversy" over the final match was about. There are just pages of filler posts and balance arguments that make it impossible.

Moving two pages per minute tells me that many are just posting without taking the time to read what was posted before them and join in a coherent discussion. Really defeats the point of the thread.

Wow that is one fast moving ban storm...
Luckily I stay out of LR thread now. Too much noise and not enough signal.

Well, LR threads serve a different purpose from the rest of the forum. It's supposed to be the place where you can be a fan and get away with posting "GOGOGOGOGOGOGO" "YESSSSSSSSS" and "SUCK IT, BISU".
There can be discussion too, but usually that happens between the games. During, it's a way to share enthusiasm with other people. Now it's just negativity which leads to more arguments.
