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.
"Suck it Bisu" isn't negative? lol :D
I understand what you are saying though, there is some really obnoxious stuff in the IEM day 5 thread. It's unbelievable the anti-German stuff that went on for the first 20 pages or so.
Although I am happy to see like 5 straight pages of LR related bans, TL mods are hard at work!

Jibba I hope that thread in the mod forums about LR threads has a fruitful discussion. All I can see, no matter how hard you ban, are more bad times ahead. It's not totally negative though. We all love the mods for the incredible amount of work they do.

That is pretty much the only thing I use LR threads for, collective virtual cheering.

I like how every time I use the report function the poster ends up getting banned for that post. It makes me feel so powerful... and yet so reluctant to use it as well.
Those graphs are pretty cool. I like how the graph explodes in 2011.

User was temp banned for this post.
TheToast was just temp banned for 2 days by SonuvBob.
That account was created on 2010-08-02 10:04:52 and had 366 posts.
Reason: So I guess some part of your brain thought it was a good idea to go into the Brood War forum to post that you want Brood War to die. We'll give you a couple days to find a good surgeon to get that part removed.
God I dont know how people can think like this... I mean I'm not a die-hard BW fan, i got into watching BW because of SC2, but common, how can you not only wish that BW dies, but post about it in the broodwar section of the forum... It's depressing.

Most people realize that these types of accounts are easily dealt with, and since the number of moderators so exceeds each shitty poster, they usually just give up.
Sometimes the slower ones take more time figuring this out.

You should make that broodwar hater read what Stork said.
I really like this:
+ Show Spoiler +@VOXSuperFly asks: What is [your] view on Starcraft2, do you think that you could ever switch?
A: It was a sensitive issue when SC2 first came out, but now that SC2 has settled in, I can open my views on it now. Just like any other sport, a game needs a strong fan base for it to exist as a form of professional sports. As long as there are fans, SCBW and SC2 will co-exist. Instead of declaring when I'll switch over right now, I'll keep my ears open to my fans and keep up with their opinions. If I decide to switch over in the future, I don't think I'll switch my race.
@onedayclose asks: What is your opinion of Starcraft2 and do you ever plan to play it professionally?
A: I heard that SC2 is very popular overseas. There are many SC2 fans here but SCBW is still much much bigger here; the consensus is that SC2 is more popular overseas. I still believe that SCBW can grow even bigger overseas. I felt the international popularity of SCBW myself as a competitor in WCG and IEF in the past, and on a related note, I'm very disappointed that SPL Finals in Shanghai was cancelled.
When majority of fans no longer feel like watching SCBW, it'll be the right decision to switch to SC2. As long as there are fans who cheer for me playing SCBW, there is no reason to switch. If the fans stay, SCBW should be fine for another 10 to 20 years.
That thread is soo goood

I can understand what he's intending with his post, but I agree with it being poorly posted in the BW forums. The philosophy behind it is this: When one story ends, anther beings. Clearly, he believes BW is a story read over and over with nowhere to go except down. I kind of agree in that there is more to be learned or to be innovated, but what the hell was he thinking making that post outside of the SC2 forums?

YOU should read what i posted right above you ;p
Of course I want to see bw pros switch over but I mean.... thats like wishing for your father to die so you can inherit the money....
There is still tonnes to be learned and innovated in the pro bw scene btw.
BW wrights a new chapter in its story every year.

That post is in Community News and involves SC2 as well. I didn't even know it was a BW forum post until reading this.
Anything in community news is, IMO, considered outside a specific forum besides that one.

Abraxas514 was just temp banned for 90 days by Empyrean.
That account was created on 2010-05-20 00:40:04 and had 60 posts.
Reason: A warning and a thirty-day ban apparently haven't stopped you from derailing threads. Maybe ninety days will do the trick.
So I have been reading through the posts of this guy and it just amazes me how people can do fairly regular,normal posts and than suddenly,something like this happens to their brain+ Show Spoiler + and they get themselves a 90 day ban.
