Now knowing that, you can go back and notice consistency in what I've said. Threads like "What's your favourite unit?" or threads with a simple question and a poll have all been closed for this reason.
You can disagree with it but you certainly cannot say it doesn't make sense.
Edit: And your reaction is irrational and frankly dumb. You put effort into something that got locked so you're going to make it worse for everyone else? To what end? What's the point?

Chill, I love your commentating, but I really don't like some of the threads you lock. The recent "Strongest/Weakest race" poll is a good example, I don't see what was wrong with it. It was just fun, and it had a good number of posts.
I just get frustrated when you lock threads that I enjoy posting in, and post a one liner at the end of it like, "Why isn't this locked?" It isn't needed!
Not to mention my first few posts on team liquid that I was trying to have a fun discussion, or brainstorm a new unit idea or whatnot. It was locked, and then the Mods would sit there in the thread after it was locked and flame me.
Would you not be frustrated? Would you not care about what you posted anymore after that? Because honestly, If I put time into something for it to be GOOD, and it gets locked, that is just frustrating. Then I see people posting stupid things all the time that deserves IMO a ban/lock, and it doesn't happen. That is why I believe now I post more negative things than try to add to the discussion.
Sorry for the drive-by comment. I'm just pissy.
And this is why I'm so angry at people on here.

is this a case where a mod just "comes along" and "doesn't agree"? is it not interesting to note that almost every single person who thinks our ban policies "don't make sense" are previously banned users? of course we make mistakes, given how large the site is growing. if you intend to criticize us for these, at least don't immediately discredit yourself and then make huge blanket statements. i'm not trying to pick a fight, i'm just taking these from your post history which everyone else can also see.

Whining about whine just adds to the situation, no?

Suck. It. Up. Its already clear that the community disapproves of aspects of SC2 right now, that was made clear in kennigits thread. Stop making stupid whine threads like this.

Seriously, there hasn't been any time to claim racial imbalances with all the patches flying around. There's just biased people and polls claiming their race is weakest and the stuff they lose to the most is OP.

Previous patch, with tanks being awesome, every TvT was pretty much viking/tank and the best player would win most of the time.

I seriously feel like I should just suggest a coin flip at the beginning of the game.
Anyone else feel the same? Every terran I've talked to in game, says it's random and lame.

The siege tank nerf isn't enough though, it needed 5 less damage than what it has now to be balanced. Its still overpowered, sorry!
