Hey, I forgot! I was counter strike player before being an SC:BW player
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

I've noticed a distinct lack of GGs at the end of most games. C'mon, losing to 3 void rays taking out your CC isn't that aggravating, is it?

Well I dont think the OP wants to bash all WC3, DOTA, etc players. Its just that there seams to be an increasingly number of low quality posts by people with a very low post count in the SC2 forum. I noticed that too and think it is a problem that cant be solved easily by baning a few people.

WC3-scene is REALLY BAD. ^^'

I've laddered WC3 for years and it's just full of bad-mannered cheaters. ^^'
SC1-ppl are huge elitists, but they're IMO friendlier, very active with pushing the community forwards etc. than in many other communities.

And as far as C&C-Community goes: If you're playing such a shitty game, sth is bound to be wrong with u. ^^'

Just kidding btw.... a bit at least. xD

I have to agree. I hate to sound so cynical, but it gets kind of boring just hearing the same people around here talk about the same stuff and have the same opinions and attitudes. It'll be interesting to have some new faces, some new attitudes (assuming they are at least relatively positive or ambivalent) to spice it up.

One of the problems might be that C&C-commentators that don't know anything about starcraft end up commentating the Zotac-Cup#5. ^^'

IMO SC1 players just have a much better understanding of the game. While players may just copy builds and still be good, the real good palyers or commentators should at least know SC kinda well...

Dota players r like cs players they r all like idra man....Wc3 i dont rly know i guess they are alright. But starcraft is a game were ppl aren't a complete douchbag when u lose, unlike those other games. I remember around 3 yrs ago i was trying my hand on iccup and went 4-96 lol. But i kept going and noone was bm to me because i was bad. partly because i never cheesed. but now im a solid player but i wouldn't of continued if ppl were as mean as dota and cs players.

ps. What pisses me off the most tho is WoW players, the dead giveaway is when they say a race is faceroll...ERR!@!!!

I really disagree with Frus. I think that what we have here is 100% fine and has been that way since we were obsessing over the Emperor.

edit -- yeah kickinhead... i'm gonna talk to those guys after their broadcast is over to explain some stuff about sc1. hopefully that will help them out.
Fuck you, I have a degree in mathematics and I speak 12 languages. (I called the World Cup final in 2008 btw)

Make them watch all the Day9-daily's about SC2 and a lot of them about SC1... Should help with knowing strategies and how those games are played. xD

I've only played Dota. I like the game but didn't really like the community. Random keep scold me for no reason.

Because I am a girl, that why sometimes my style is much more simpler and I have my own way of thinking. I just want to play for fun. Then when losing or mistakes happen, they scold me. And then they laugh because I didn't play the normal way.

Sometimes I feel I play much better than them.

It is so angry sometimes, there are people who didn't play really well but still able to scold me so much. They cannot find their own mistake but keep finding my mistake, sometimes I didnt make any mistake yet get scolding.

Ask me buy this, do that. I keep say Okay. Okay. In the end keep get scold.

There is 1 time I get so mad I really BM back. Then ask me go "Insert Location". Meet Real Life and talk. Or "Insert number". Talk on phone.

The Teamplay-Community is often very bad, I've seen it in HoN, DotA and LoL: All those group-effect's come into play like ppl always thinking they have to worst team ever and flaming all others when the team is loosing, but it's also much easier to have an idiot in the game, just because there are more players in a game than in 1v1-games like SC2...

Ya that all true dota has a horrible community. And most of the time they blame other people over themselves. But the excuse that your a girl means u think simpiler and play diffrently at games is a lame excuse. Man and women can probably play video games equally well, innate muscular differences doesent mean anything in a video game. Get confident in yourself and youll always be fine even if u lose.

As a new poster(not from any game, just loved TLO performance and had to say something), I would say to the OP not to worry about it at all. Let the moderators do their job. They seem pretty good at it.

He isn't saying everybody from the communities are BM but in general Teamliquid has had a very low number of trolls and idiots on here the ban thread would average maybe 1 ban a day whereas now every time I look somebody new is banned.

Of course we had people who padded our ban thread's stats and whatnot (Looking at you TDot) but I don't think there were ever so many people banned each day for such an extended period of time.

I think people need to just stop thinking in terms of "This player is from WC" "This guy is SC" "This dude is C&C". We're all coming together to be Starcraft 2. If we stop separating ourselves, we'll be able to make a better community. I feel like some cheesy lifetime movie now.
Life is Good.

I've heard that before.

That time I was talking about the same thing with an aquaitance I've met at the free access lab. He asked me did I play any games. I said used to play dota. Then he ask why did you quit.

I told him the same thing. And he replied roughly the same way you did.
