Maybe a little article or section where we can see the history of this site. Who created it, why they created it, whos a mod, who does what, for what, who pays for it, etc. Would be nice.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Naz & Meat created it (I think, don't remember when Saro came on board)

They created it as a clan site at first

For what? There's no monetary compensation or anything for anyone.

Who pays? The ads you see.

Staff list (TeamLiquid Member get at least Replay status, so they get access to the secret features of tlnet, staff access normaly isn't removed even when a person doesn't do anything anymore, so you will see people on the list who are inactive. Also a mod can do anything a news person can do, a news person can do anything a replay person can do etc..., "replay" is pretty much just the default staff setting).

She was also the one that helped distribte VODs with the help of the great encoder mr0919 and hoster toptalent.

That was back in the day before torrents, and that thread was the first ever Hall of Fame Thread.

She also has great photography skills, but refuses to show her face (except FakeSteve ninja'd one).

ret was one of the best players around from the Netherlands. He played zvp/zvt/ and tvz.

He is now inactive, which is a pity.

Heh, same with me. I'm more or less a forum veteran but the time period where Saro came on board is a total void in my memory. I would imagine someone of Saro's status joining the site would be front page news but I have no recollection of it at all.

Oh, same with Arbiter[frolix], I don't remember when he joined either. T_T;

First Naz & Meat wanted to cover everything I believe. I was asked to post gg.net similar style of news at first, though I declined. Eventually TL.net evolved to pretty much Korean progaming news only.

Waxangel carried the site for quite a long time and set the standard for the way this site covered progaming for many years.

the history of teamliquid.net starts with teamliquid.cjb.net

Saro registered: 10-15-2003 but it was not announced big or something, because his role in the website just grew steadily

Things that piss me off.
May 31 2001 by Liquid`Drone

I will post one message like this every week for as long as I feel like it.

Today, I feel like unleashing my all-powerful wrath of anger on

PEOPLE WHO PICK THEIR RACE AT THE LAST SECOND.

It is so beyond gay.
I hate it. And whenever my opponent picks race at last second, I leave the game. Due to my coolness, people have followed my path to rightousness before. (Eldritch Lake anyone?) I'm hoping people will do the same again. If your opponent picks race at the last second, leave the game. �_*
Why cant people pick race before countdown so you can pick race accordingly?
Its not that big a deal if he picks toss ; cause pvp isnt as horribly gay/dull/boring/homosexual as tvt and zvz. So it is actually possible to random vs protoss.
Against zerg and terran however, its gay. zvz sucks. tvt sucks. I wanna be able to play without being fucking forced to play those matchups '_*

So. Race pickers, start picking at the beginning of the game. Cause if you dont, I leave game. and I hope tons of other people will be as l337 as me `_`

hahaha
