PURGE 2008!

Short Version:

- Don't post like an idiot,
- Don't insult people,
- Don't judge people based on post count,
- Read over all your words before you hit post,

and you wont get banned.


Long Version:

We here at teamliquid are sensing some undesirable trends lately, and we are about to put a stop to it.

The average posting quality is going down, people are becoming to comfortable with bad manner, and the amount of quality, effort-laden threads is drying up.

Remember this analogy:

Imagine your friend invites you to somebody's house for dinner. You would probably be polite right? Then, once you got to know people you relax a little bit. TeamLiquid is just like that. If you are new, show respect, be polite, and have something to contribute. There are many people here who have been visiting this house for a long time. Respect that too.

People who break these rules are removed from the site, much like an unruly house guest.


There is a second part. Some people stay in the house for a long time because it is too much of a pain in the ass to ask them to leave. Well, you may now be asked to leave.

Think before you post. We have purged periodically in the past, this is merely an extension of that.

Exhibit A: LetMeBeWithYou

stalker shit.

Sup. Called it.

Go watch it in theater, shithead

You're a faggot and you use 4chan meme.

No, you're a fucking idiot.


etc. etc. etc.

As a person with a very low post compared to rest of the TL community (even though I've been visiting the site for years, and only just registered)...

I'd like to say thank you.

Good news. I always hated seeing every other thread with someone replying with just "QFT" to raise post counts.

I have been visiting the site for years and I, too, have noticed the quality of threads and posts has diminished over time. I dont post often, but I do enjoy reading what everyone else has to say, unless its some stupid one liner or something of that nature. Kudos for taking action, teamliquid
