Geez I have excessive work for a few days and poof I come back to 10+ pages to read. All hilarity of course so I am contented with my snow day and coco in hand. Now to sift through some pages of the ABL page that I missed.

Reason: A couple of pages ago you're going about how you love to see BW dying and now you come up with comments like this in the BW forum? You're obviously just baiting for another sc2 vs BW argument.
You're getting into dangerous territory with your moderation record living up to your username. I suggest extreme care in posting in the near future.
Hah! Poor village idiot, never getting respect from his/her fellow villagers.

I may have a lot of posts (and I haven't posted in a LR thread in quite some time) but torte has consistancy that I could never compete with. It's been an interesting week with a lot of stuff worth posting on.
That being said- it's particularly adorable when people bring racism on TL. G'bye

Gotta fly close to the sun if you want to shine brightest. Sometimes it works, sometimes you go to closed threads.

So much lolz could have been had in that thread
but I guess it would just be a flamefest in the end.

It would be Chef that made the thread, too. I know he's the most vocal and ardent champion of BW on TL, but he's starting to be sort of obnoxious, like SCII is the Antichrist or something.
Not that I dislike Chef (I enjoy his presence here; he's a real character whose personality and position are unique and well-defined)... but knock that shit off. Let the mods deal with SCII vs. BW flamebaiters instead of making a thread with the sole purpose of demonizing everyone who plays a game you despise.

I do seem to recall there was a modestly "successful" balance discussion thread, but it's also crucial to note that it was not a balance whine thread. In the same sense, Chef possibly could make a meaningful thread about discussing the differences between BW and Sc2 while... avoiding comparing them? Somehow. >.>

Sounds like you fellas need to have a grudge match

Seems like I have to change my signature again.

But they have to love people who love other games too. BW zealots who can't fathom people liking other games are getting way more annoying than SC2 fans who don't respect BW.

Honestly Chef always had a peculiar attitude concerning bw, dating way before sc2. Sometimes I would really like what he says, sometimes strongly disagree.I don't think he hates sc2 as much as you make him do, it's just his way of reacting. And to be honest I'm pretty sure Chill would classify me as an "anti-sc2 zealot" (I do like other games not often discussed on TL), but I also disagree with the thread he created. Anyway there's way too much tension in bw atm, I think once the new season starts everything will get better. And Blizzcon/HoTS were bound to bring more fuel to those BW/SC2 comparisons. Oh and on a personnal level I think I'm getting less bitter about all those things, I even managed not to answer in a SC2 forum thread which had half-turned to "bw elitists this and that". But some stuff will always get me I guess :/

Speaking of rood war, please don't say things like some of the comments in this closed thread. It's not entirely my place to say this but you make yourself look like an asshole.

I laughed my ass off at this in lecture and regrettably drew the attention of everyone :S

Whatever you do just don't quote obvious baits. Just say no kids. I know its the internet,but goddamn,gotta have a little self control.

Concerning BW/SC2: I don't mind if they call us elitists. I rage when they call us "BW hipsters". And not because I dislike hipsters (although I do), but because it just doesn't fit as a definition. Elitist sounds classier.
Edit: Does this make me a hipster now?

Nope, you're an elitist like me.

Well, I think that Starcraft 2 really made a few patriots out of the BW community on TL, and in their mind it's necessary to defend BW from all critics. But that's not to say they aren't annoying, they are, there are just a lot fewer than the SC2 trolls.

I understand the position of the so-called "BW elitists", basically they had a peaceful cool website and it got invaded by a dark army of uncivilized trolls playing a new game. Regarding Chef... yeah, there were times when I saw some of his more blatantly anti-SC2 posts and felt like replying in rage, but obviously decided against it.
I'm sure some of you saw that thread he made in website feedback a while back, kind of stereotyping most SC2 posters as complete apes who would just shit all over any brood war topic with their doomsaying crap. Oh, and there was some stuff about licking lightbulbs too. The memory is somewhat unclear to me.
I like Chef though ^_^

I believe I carry the same quiet offense many BWists must feel. The most vocal cross-forum members are severely anti-the-other-game, and proceed to shit on something important to many members of the site and the people who care about it without discrimination. No doubt there are other sc2 players who feel the same as me.
Anyway, I was eagerly stalking that thread out of curiosity, but I wasn't sure if it was actually permissible to have a designated rage and flame thread. XD A little disappointed it got closed so fast tbh.
