His trolly posting is part of what makes idrA who he is, and it's in some strange way sort of become part of the TL community. The idea that at any time idrA will go into a random thread and QQ and troll is amusing and part of what makes this community awesome. But don't think for a minute that the mods won't draw the line for him. Go back in the ban list to May and you will see one such incident. idrA made some stupid posts in the Cruncher fan club thread and Chill 2-dayed him. idrA then went onto twitter and told his fans to start harassing Chill. Resulted in a lot of throw away accounts getting permed and the staff ended up banning idrA for 90 days. Of course idrA never said he was sorry or anything publicly, but after the smoke cleared I think idrA got the message about just how far he was allowed to go on TL. I understand Idra's history and his special case. But when he uses certain words on a website I consider pg13 outside of [NSFW] threads is where I thought that line would be drawn. I know other people like Incontrol has dropped f-bombs on tl lots of times, but even the context of those statements are far different then Idra's last one. The thread was closed so it's not like it matters anymore, but I honestly think comments like that hurt TL more then gain. | ||

IdrA already has some odd 21 bans, including two perms (albeit one of them by request). IdrA is given a lot of leniency, for obvious reasons. I don't think that anything would be achieved by temp'ing him for that comment. In fact, it would cause an unnecessary stir, and a bunch of IdrA fans would sweep over TL like a tsunami of rage. You remember what happened last time IdrA got banned. I think it's a headache that the mods don't need or want. | ||

You remember what happened last time IdrA got banned. I think it's a headache that the mods don't need or want. Yeah, this is the point I wanted to hear. Basically, it causes chaos for TL having to deal with Idra publicly like banning him. I just hope that he has enough respect for the mods that if they PM him and are like, "Idra man, you stepped out of line..." that he'd at least apologize to them (not publicly). It's hard dealing with celebrities of your favorite sport because you have to keep the community happy with how you deal with things. Just kinda grinds my gears if there was no level of respect for them. Thank god he posts very little and keeps most of his personality to his streams where it makes it exciting to watch Idra. | ||

The thread was closed so it's not like it matters anymore, but I honestly think comments like that hurt TL more then gain. This is the reason for IdrA's high level immunity:- + Show Spoiler + 6. THOU SHALL RESPECT FORUM VETERANS All other things being equal, we will give preferential treatment to site members who have been with us longer (as reflected in their post count + length of time with us as a registered member). It's a simple recognition of the quality of these people. Longevity and contribution are prized commodities around here. In a similar vein, "known" pro/semi-pro players will also be treated with deference (yes, quite a few hang out here). Don't complain - these guys have earned it. Remember: we ban little kids all the time because they sign on thinking they can say and do whatever they want to whomever they want right from the get-go - just like they're used to doing at other sites. That attitude won't work here. That's a promise. As far as new users are concerned (i.e. anyone with less than 1000 or so quality posts to their name), this site is Holy Ground. The veterans are the users who've consistently shown respect to the site and to others and that's why they're still here. Show them some respect. In practice, this policy means a user who has thousands of posts may be able to get away with a few minor transgressions in etiquette with just a warning. If you're at 50 posts and you try the same kind of stunt, then we may just ban you. Harsh? Yes. Unfair? Most definitely. But that's the way life is. Learn to live with it. This also means you should think twice before calling that guy with 5000+ posts a jackass. If the guy's been with us that long, chances are YOU'RE the one being an idiot. Some battles are just not worth fighting - just move on. | ||

Both of those words could hypothetically be used in a non-pejorative context, even in the same post! I for example am talking about a farmer who owns both a donkey and a cat... his pussy keeps the farm clear of rats and other vermin, and his ass hauls a plough to help him till his fields. | ||

ih8Australia was just temp banned for 2 weeks by GHOSTCLAW. That account was created on 2011-10-19 14:42:54 and had 21 posts. Reason: Your posting history is pretty bad. Also, please request a name change in the name change thread. Thanks Country bashing in the PPSL thread, offensive username, horrible posting history (see below), and he's only been here 3 weeks. How does this not equal a perm?? Love this gem: On October 31 2011 11:41 ih8Australia wrote: Guys its OK. Milkis came to fame but it waas obvious he is not able to cope the cost of having it. There will always be fans and haters. Does everyone like Justin Beiber? Does everyone like Gay9? Should everyone be an iDra fan? NO of course not. If everyone was a fan of everyone then competativeness would not exist. If there was no evil then there is no such thing as good.. So sometimes its good to be evil sometimes and its good to be hated, you just need to have the skill accept to be hated and loved otherwise the other will never exist. If hate doesn't exist then love wont exist so you need to be hated to be loved.. U get what im saying nigger? So milkis get ur ass up and accepted being hated for your own opinion because we are all entitled to one and goto DJWheat and say "FUCK JUSTIN WONG AND FUCK DAIGO, chu play a kids game.. BW is the game to be" because thats your opinion and is entitled to one. User was warned for this post Obviously doesn't know what sites he's posting on: On October 27 2011 13:18 ih8Australia wrote: I hope Jinro doesn't make it... BOOO jinro Oh!

It fits the environment and it makes me feel like an actual warrior that's part of the game. When I see streams where other music is played it ruins it for me and brings me back to tue real world. Yer I like to role playy so what. I think being a unit wud be so awesome... I hope this guy realizes what amazing mercy GhostClaw just displayed for him by not tossing him out to the curb.... + Show Spoiler + but probably not | ||

EDIT: Alright, I'll grand your wish. Ok so this is your most recent ban right: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=32696¤tpage=952#19049 Techno was just temp banned for 1 week by iamke55. That account was created on 2010-06-04 08:25:09 and had 1512 posts. Reason: Please, PLEASE explain to me how you thought this was an unacceptable post. Answer in eight words or fewer, and don't mention freedom of speech. It's pretty normal-- pretty run of the mill. You bm about a pro, and then say protoss can just 1-a, and get a week of temp ban. It's not like the more interesting guys like TI**, the treasure trove of ancient CharlieMurphy bans, or the final perms of particularly virulent general discussion trolls. If you want to be discussed you have to either be a thread (rather than a poster) that generates many bans, or be amusing. Or ask why you're not discussed, I guess :D | ||

Anyone who hates Day9 that much must have a black heart of pure evil hatred.  Did you guys see this thread??: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=284361 How the fuck could I have missed getting in on that?? It's an entire thread full of trolly posts about Toast! I mean COME THE FUCK ON now!!!! Damnit, just going to have to wait for the next stupid thread about toast *grumble grumble* | ||
