They'll set up a defence around Chill, and be right to do so. It's a poor situation, and even the one that doesn't deserve to be named shouldn't receive credit for making it bad for everyone.
Idra did stream a great deal of content already, though, so perhaps it would be better to revisit the vods and try to interpret his rather laconic statements. our fucking sensationalist community is to blame for it. made a big deal out of it and now we're in this fucking terrible situation.
on the plus side, now that idra isnt streaming cruncher doesnt stand a chance vs him.

This shouldn't be a big deal, but the bias moderation on this forum is a joke.
User was banned for this post.

seriously I think that ban is absurd. It is not like he insulted him for no reason. The guy was stream cheating. I for one and I am sure many others in these forums have no tolerance for that kind of behavior, even though it was just ladder. Are we not supposed to voice our opinions on behavior that has no integrity at all?

A couple thousand people watched him stream snipe, and for little do we know, cheat. You obviously dont like idra but dont use your administrative powers to just ban for stupid things like that.

Cruncher lost my respect, one thing you would never catch Idra doing is Ghost Streaming. Cruncher, just lost a lot of respect from the community. This event will be linked with his name from now on. Will be a skeleton in his closet any time they bring up Idra and Cruncher. First off none of this would have happened if Cruncher played by the rules. I would vote for him to get non-featured. For a shot for some one that is honest to get his spot. **Its funny Cruncher was not temp banned for his comments on his 16 page Fan Page ;P

I miss IdrA... Who the hell cares about Crunchers feelings? He's a grown man, and he knows who IdrA is.

lol he called somebody a waste of life. Anybody else on this forum would be banned for saying that, as they should.

even though I posted this in the fanclub, it probably applies more to here:
Okay, if you're a true IdrA fan, you're going to listen to him instead of doing all of this complaining.

I'm pretty sure his tweet to PM Chill was just for personal lulz, and I wouldn't take it seriously.

I'm disappointed in the ban, but Idra did deserve it, you shouldn't be able to disrespect other people and call them "a waste of life." If anything I think this is lenient since Idra is just getting another temp ban in a long list and not a perm ban which he his is not immune to.

I agree it's annoying that he did it, but no need to get so dramatic about it. It's not like he cheated in some high-stakes game, nor is it even provable that he did use the stream for anything other than the initial snipe, though his reaction was absolutely perfect for having no idea about what was coming.

apologize for playing that race

What is this, some sort of high school drama?

Be that as it may, being a nerd since wee age I have spent a great deal of time at various different forums. I have however yet to encounter a forum with as active moderators as tl.net. I have never been banned before until I joined here. It is not national law we are enforcing, which everyone is equal before. It's a website's too hard rules of conduct to control discussion, and right now it is severely impacting the fans ability to enjoy their favourite streamer. Yes, it is okay to make an exception for Idra.

Chill, you know it's ironic that I would not have heard about this unless you banned him? It's kind of silly, don't you think? It's unintentionally promoting the post :\

Every time IdrA talks or posts I like him more. Thank you for being such an awesome part of this community.

The real question is, does JP get back his part of the "bet" -- or perhaps 2/3 of it as it's only been 2 days?
As this is my 2nd post on TL in quite some time, I'm hoping to get banned :D
The commentary was cool but it seemed like he only played 1 hour each day, which was much less than I was expecting TBH. Then he gets on and rants about how he doesn't have to play anymore.

He played a lot today. And he usually plays a little over an hour. He's not playing less because of the commentary. Honestly his competition on ladder has been really shoddy recently so he doesn't have much to say and he sure as hell isn't going to stream practice games. The commentary is still really interesting IMO.

Everyone loses D: Except CrunCher who has just lost Idra 15.7k Viewers and as result has gained himself any of the potential 15.7k who decide to watch his stream. I don't think anyone who likes IdrA enough to watch his stream will watch Crunchers. Maybe they'll watch Tyler or Whitera or some other good protoss but the IdrA demographic probably isn't interested in Cruncher's "style"
Why? Because I like IdrA's stream I have to hate Cruncher's?
Did you know it's actually OK to disagree with IdrA? Did you know I can like to watch IdrA play, but not be embroiled in all his drama enough to refuse to watch some other player who he says is worthless/skill-less/fucking terrible (which is what, like 95% of the players)?
