So many (new) posters here think a viral video warrants an entire thread... over and over. Oh, and almost all of them don't have a real "discussion" or well-articulated opinion/response to the video, just the dam video itself. What is this, youtube?
I'm going to read up on the commandments again to see if there's a clause specifically against creating new threads with very little to no content, I think I remember it being in there somewhere.
*edit: Oh yes, found it!

For you this means, when you create a new thread, make sure to include content worth discussing in it. A link or youtube video is not enough.

i actually agree with Abort Retry Fail in that Blind-Rawr was overly aggressive for no apparent reason. wouldn't go so far as to say that an apology is required but it's still stupid for a shit-poster to call out another shit-poster in a frequently shit-posted thread (LR). the stupidity is amplified by Blind's attempt to victimize himself.
also, sick dodge of grudgematch by Blind.

how is is admitting to being a spammer an act of self victimization.
Also it wasn't an act of agression but rather of poor deducting skill.

I was about to leave the house and get some work done and decided to have one last look. Just posting this before I go:
Let the grudgematch happen. Loser exiles from TL for 90 days! Bo9/Bo17/Bo1million i dont care, but make it no less that Bo9. BW or SC2. Any map used in the proscene. Any race, Race switch after matches allowed. I have only one condition: Once I win 5 (if Bo9) or 9 (of Bo17) or 500,001 (if Bo1million), we play out the rest of the series just to teach the lesson!
Accept? Test your might!!!

All this and we aren't going to get a super epic grudge matchup.
Blind you have dissapointed all of us. Like really, you claim BW doesn't work alright, how about CS? oooo Minecraft spleef grudge match? Come on now! -edit: Ponycraft spleef match?
Also I am now 100% confinced ARF is a PBU.

I don't think we have nearly enough grudge matches on TL

He blew it way out of proportion.
Now I gotta suffer for diving a grudgematch which was a joke suggestion.
This is worse than the gg.nore debacle.

My mind is blown by the concept that off-topic discussion in the ABL can cause itself to become on-topic by resulting in moderator action.

That's why I love this thread. It's like the only thread where regularly interesting derailing happens.

This shit is blowing my mind. What if our off-topic discussion about the off-topic discussion in the ABL constitutes bannable off-topicness until the original off-topic people are subject to moderator action-- and then this discussion is retroactively relevant?
What is teamliquid.net's policy on meta ex post facto?

SPLEEF SPLEFF SPLEEF SPLEEF SPLEEF!!!
In the absense of a SC grudge match, this is really the next best thing. Come on I'll even make you a sweet world file and put up a server myself!!!

This thread is magical. It's basic really, a thread decidated to observing all of the bad behavior and wacky drama that goes on has turned this into the default nexus of TL.

YES!
We have so many amature casters/streamers in the community now you would think this would be easier. Should start a dedicated "Grudge Match Thread" for people to call out others lol.

Remember Dragon vs Dragon? Man, THAT was a grudgematch.

I would definitely watch those. I remember one grudge match I saw casted by Wolf I think of a guy who got into an argument with 2 classmates over whether team games were the best form of practice lol. It was hilarious.
