That being said, if I were him I'd be very very good >.> I would have perm'd him by now - or a very lengthy ban because he keeps doing the same thing over and over. Thanks for the ban report - you should do them more often, that was highly entertaining and makes the next time i see him banned that much better. I actually remember the ban where he said "tl is run by children". | ||

A brooding, horrible beast-- sort of the opposite of Beast from Beauty and the Beast, since he's actually pretty ok on the outside but crazy on the inside. What path does a man take, though, to end this way? Surely he was born as we all are, mewling and weak into this world, hoping and clinging innocently to our protective parents. Surely he was once innocent?

NERF. Why? Well, let' see what I can do now, vs what i cant do. Can't: Fungal Growth to stop a fast moving air unit. (Good luck landing it unless he stops.) Spawn infested Terrans to take out ANY unit in time, before they run away. Stall an enemy army for 8 seconds, while I spawn more larva units and regroup an army. Give my Broodlords the correct range to steer away from enemy units in time. Keep units AWAY from my Broodlords so that they can keep killing rather than flying away. Stop Protoss Units from using blink to catch up to my Broodlords. Bring half the amount of infestors needed for a stall vs an enemy. (More gas) Point and click an area of effect, yet High Templar can. Cast instantly anymore. Can: Kill Marines and other fragile units, 2x faster. (If my fungal lands.) Do 30% more damage to armored units (10~points) Cry at the fact my fungal can miss. Help make my infestor survive longer because he has a whopping 20 more points of HP. No longer think of an infestor as a defensive unit. If you noticed it yet or not, any good player uses infestors in a defensive manor at the moment, especially when they are going T3. The nerf indirectly affects the other zerg units and the priority of making infestors, period. It also indirectly affects macro games in general, as well making it much harder to defend against cheese or air units in general. Not only does it do that, but it also indirectly affects the other infestor skill: Infested terran, as they are very slow, and also slow to spawn. And anybody who says it will help kill other units faster now, should remember that 150 gas can be used in much better ways (that's like 6 roaches) in a offensive state of mind. Edit: Want to fungal an opponent to get your roaches in position? Sorry. The infestor is NOT an offensive unit, it was never supposed to be. ...actually, that's not so bad. Yes, he's complaining about PTR and ultimately about a change that was removed before the patch went live (projectile) and/or was considered generally a buff (increased dps, decreased duration of fungal), but on the other hand, he's presenting his arguments, incendiary though they may be, in a well-thought-out, generally typo-free, and highly legible and organized manner. Not bad for a first post. What happens next? Well, like most people on TL (and myself, for most of my TL career), he lurked more. It took another major patch (again, affecting Infestors) to bring him out again for meaningful dialogue. And out again did he come! http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=265770¤tpage=47#927 + Show Spoiler + On September 16 2011 19:02 Keyz1 wrote: Was this Blizzard's plan from the beginning because of an Infestor metagame that Protoss and Terran kept crying about? Let's do a severe nerf and make it so that you can't NP massive units. This way we can reduce the range of NP to 7, making it used a lot less anyway or at all, which in the end, will be the final result of a compromise the community will agree to after hearing the first nerf. 7 Range.....................just remove Zerg from Starcraft 2. heh. On September 16 2011 19:12 Keyz1 wrote: It's the same range or less (collossus) that the massive units we're NPing have. There's a small delay when you NP a unit, therefore endangering that infestor immediately as a priority target. Having a similar range on NP as Broodlord for that army combo was huge, now it's going to be too awkward. There's a reason many Zerg's are frustrated with this change. I mean, who gives a shit if Hellions damage goes down 5 points for Blue Flame, they still roast the shit out of harvesters. Reduce the range to 7 on NP, no problem, we can still NP Collossus and Thors when we----------------------oh shit, nevermind, that infestor is gonna get stomped if he tries now. Clearly, his aggravation had reached new levels. This change to his beloved Infestor would not stand. No, he would let the world know. He would... start his first thread on TL. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=268107#1 + Show Spoiler + I'll start......... Mass Thor, NP lasted 3 seconds total, dead. Immortals are being massed, and early roach timing attacks are tougher as well. So many builds with Immortals + Collossus, roaches getting melted. Protoss Deathball, infestors danced like fools behind my army because the Collossus wasn't in range. Couldn't even NP an Immortal at one point because the 6 range + roach infront of the infestor. Everything feels like it's back to Roach/Hydra/Corruptor or something. I'm seeing it everywhere now. There's no way zerg players can get out Ultralisks before there's at least 4 Collossus out either if they're going for a Ling/Ultra/Infestor build. Teching to Spire or Infestors is now a decision you have to make carefully. Can't have both until 3-4 base, and infestors won't save u vs mass collossus numbers earlier on. Blizzard wants us to flank in order to get a NP off, they make it sound like it's easy NP is utterly useless right now in imo. Can't say more than that. Straight-up balance whine, the strongest kind, but subtly contained in an OP. How else would the blizzard devs hear his opinion if not in a thread he starts himself? Mani quickly shuts it down, but in its brief 20-minute lifespan, the thread precipitously accrues 2 pages of argument. Keyz1 is spurred on! He improves his posting. He makes a quality OP. He places it in the right forum. He tries to make a compendium of zerg strategy changes in patch 1.4, and begins by contributing himself. It is actually an honest effort to really contribute to the site. The thread-close changed him. He was reformed. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=269842 + Show Spoiler + On September 28 2011 06:38 Keyz1 wrote: I'm gonna try to keep this thread updated as much as I can. I want this to be a thread where Zerg players from different leagues are contributing and coming up with Tactics and or Builds to counter 1.4 metagame and strategies. We're definately not as strong as we used to be without Neural Parasite and players, including pros are changing their builds and unit compositions. We see Roach/Hydra/Corruptor coming out of constant top pros in recent tournaments. I'll add to each Race as players respond and give appropriate counters feedback. Terran Protoss Ex. Early Warp Prism Drops - Add a Hydralisk Den @ 7-8 minutes after scouting a robo.

I'll add it to the list and put your post # next to it. Remember it can be a tactic you use, a unit composition you find working well, or a build order for specific units @ different times which help defend. It can also be a specific move you make on a specific map in order to counter for ex. a Terran Hellion/Marine drop. ...nobody replied to his thread. At all. Disoriented and sad, he had finally come to the light-- he wanted to contribute. He wanted others to contribute. He wanted to be part of something great. He finally opened himself up, and didn't flame, or whine, or troll. He tried to be a good poster. And in this, his moment of greatest vulnerability, when he wrote his first quality post, and his first quality OP, he came knocking at the door of TL strategy. Nobody answered. He was alone, abandoned, rejected. He gave up. He never posted again in Strategy-- from then on he posted only in LR threads, speculation/patch threads, and the HotS thread. His rage was palpable. His bans, warranted. He knew he was forsaken, he was one of the horde, and instead of rejecting it, he embraced it. He descended into the darkness with his arms wide open, and the darkness embraced him. He smiled at this acceptance, at not being rejected, even as the shadow twisted his smile into the grimace of a disgusting flaming troll. The shadows took that little piece of his soul, that hopeful self that started a reasonable OP in the strategy forum only to get ignored, and twisted it, feeding it lies, darkness and hatred. It did not destroy hope, for hope is never destroyed-- but it twisted it into something worse, something malevolent. At last, after months of poisonous LR posting, he emerged, a new man, a different man. The battle between light and darkness was over. He went back into the Strategy forum. He posted again, and brought the darkness with him. Here is a man who has failed us, TL, and yet, this is also a man we failed. Plexa, in his infinite wisdom, has issued but a short temp ban for this fellow. He sees that Hope is not yet dead in his soul, even if it HAS become twisted. He hopes that with just a prod, a reminder of the path that is righteous, he can bring Keyz1 back from the brink. We can only hope, that Keyz1's hope can yet pull through, that he can shed that self that posts in the LR threads and rages at patch changes, and bring back that Hope that shone through so briefly, that tried to start a thread to help others. I hope. I wonder if he ever stopped by and read it, lol. He's actually kept his nose clean since then, making relatively normal posts, despite a few "LR-ey" posts in LR threads. He's even tried helping a couple people out in Sc2 Strategy. It looks like he may have been rehabilitated into normal TL society. | ||

Oh what a treasure trove it was! BushidoSnipr joined us in mid-2010. He was relatively inactive, mostly lurking and posting once or twice a month. It wasn't until April of 2011 that he begin posting regularly. It didn't take long for his posting to draw some moderator attention: from TSL Ro14 Day 4: Ah yes, a classic "screw you protoss players"... a warning should suffice for this, though-- a veiled balance whine in an LR thread? We all make mistakes. At least, that's what I thought until: This is like when your classmate who always makes those racist jokes walks into a bar and just punches the nearest black guy and you realize he's actually a racist and suddenly you feel sick for ever having laughed at his jokes and you look around and wonder if others feel the same way or if they hate you for it. BushidoSnipr moves on to greener pastures, looking to dispense strategy advice without watching replays: Ah yes, the "build an ASSLOAD of medivacs, but don't drop" strategy. Warned for not watching the replay, it seems. That being said, it seems that he's learned his lesson. BushidoSnipr was in rehab, then, and was staying away from his old friends and hangouts. Once, one of them even called him up and said "hey man i got some new, fresh anti-protoss balance whine, top-notch stuff." and he said "man i'm high on life now, I don't need that any more" He was, for the moment, a good man. Not the best of men, no-- but a good man. But he could not resist the temptation forever... and surely enough, he was drawn in by that strongest of feelings, the need to balance whine against protoss. Oh, BushidoSnipr, what was all that rehab for? What was it for, my friend, that you would throw it away so easily? Was it worth it? no, don't do it no no nonnoononononono please don't throw this all away nooooooooooooooooooo He who is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone | ||

It'd be a tale of sorrow and relentless attacks, and how we were defending by his unique style of trolling through the Red Hammer of of Mods. Plus it may well make the longest post on TL ever. Longer than Torte's guide to TL | ||

My only warning was when I tried to get the first post on page 1000 on a MLG live report thread and double posted. Just earlier I was about to post something in a blog but then as I was reading what I typed to make sure it made sense I thought to myself that it was a little too politically inclined so I didn't post it. I don't think I'd be warned or banned for it but still if people just read over their posts before they do them there can be so fewer bans. | ||

I once got warned because I was in a girl blog arguing that HoN was better than LoL... In any case, I don't do these "biographies" of banned people to laugh at them. I do it because people who get banned sometimes have histories. I try to present my subjects in a positive light, that of the struggling poster who wants to be better. :D Also, I do these usually when I'm bored and/or have spare time. At the moment this isn't the case, however. | ||

I think the problem with the general forum is that people who have really strong ideas really want to fight about them. You find much more extreme opinions by much more aggressive posters than anywhere else on the forum. When I got to a point I was getting banned on a very regular basis and for longer and longer length, I did the same. I have to say that since I'm not interested in SC2 and BW is slowing down a lot, I sometimes don't have anywhere to go but the general forum. I tend to decide when will be my last post in advance to avoid getting dragged in endless inflammable discussions. | ||
