Not my thread was closed, but I still wonder what is going on?
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=243464
Maybe to some it sounds outright idiotic to have an UI option to display the total worker count (while it would be very nice to have it in replays!) But SC2 also displays the waypoint pathes. And an ingame clock, which would have been considered absurd before Blizzard implemented it.

It was probably closed because we don't typically allow "This is how I would make Starcraft 2" threads. The reason is that you have no chance of actually getting Starcraft 2 changed, so posting how you would make it has zero value to anyone else. It's the same as "This is how I would design Earth" - maybe Blog material?
I didn't close it so it was only a guess.

An in-game clock was suggested [I believe] on the Battle.net's forums. Should make suggested topics there :3

Terrible poll, weak topic indeed. Closing this.
Your poll is bias towards your opinion.
Your topic lacks a bit of depth or actual stance. You summarize the article and then your opinion is pretty weak and lacking: I feel that the way everyone in the US expects a raise is the reason companies are leaving the US(among other reasons). Please give your poll answer and leave your thoughts.
"Because I personally feel everyone (all people, all citizens) in the U.S expects a raise is the prime reason companies are leaving the U.S (among other reasons, which should be considered when you make such a blanket statement).
Just needs a bit more work or thought in my opinion.

Best of luck with that, the more effort, the more you can show of your interest.

There's no information. Map-pool? Number of players? Check-in time? Brackets? Prize? Best of #? Rules? Form of reporting wins/losses? Way of contacting the admins of the tournament?

I enjoy watching and making Hitler parodies. Though most of them are dumb, there are some gems out there that are incisive and require a real sense of humor to make.
I tried to post one that I made in what I assume is the right spot, but it got closed with no explanation: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=219797
After hours of video editing with my crappy software, I linked another video I made in an appropriate thread and received a warning that said "don't post memes". Now, I get that TL is trying to cut down the amount of garbage posted, but why exactly can't I post memes? Especially if it's new and relevant to the topic. Creating your own Hitler parodies is a great way to express your opinion, and if moderators don't like Hitler parodies because they lump it in with meme garbage, it shouldn't really be a factor.

Here is a quote from the 10 commandments on this website. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=17883
Rule#4 Paragraph 2.
For you this means, when you create a new thread, make sure to include content worth discussing in it. A link or youtube video is not enough. An opening post should set the tone for discussion by being thoughtful and well constructed. We will not hesitate to close threads that don't have enough OP content.
It is just a link to a video with one line. Needs to have more content and something worth discussing other than another hitler video making fun of something that usually is not funny.

It wasn't my thread, but I'm curious about this one. Specifically:
combat-ex is not and will never be welcome on TL
I know CombatEx is really BM, but why the lifetime ban? TL has several grandmasters that are BM and even former cheaters that are allowed to post. I apologize, i'm just not familiar with the full history of CombatEx and TL.

He's a well-known cheater and unacceptable personality on Team Liquid. Deezer is very rude and disrespectful, but he is allowed on TL and the TL Opens.
Combat-Ex is unacceptable and he doesn't deserve anything stemming or relating from Team Liquid.

A very good read and the replies from staff.

Definitely a good read. I'm curious about why Major's stream is still featured/listed then, given his recent attempt at cheating. And presumably CombatEx is a current cheater?, as former cheaters like Spades, Dimaga, and TT1 have featured streams.

I said before I was the one that spoke to Destiny, it was exactly as he said, we never threatened him just told him our view. That's all. I'm glad Destiny has given this issue thought and cares about the implications of running a showmatch like this.
There's probably no doubt that this would get a lot of hits. From the standpoint of more traffic and more attention, we'd probably be wise to allow threads and calendar and all that. But we've always had a stance with cheaters and we know from experience what giving them attention can do. We'll never sacrifice that for some more stream viewers.
The difference between this case and TT1 is that TT1 was banned from TL for 2 years, and after apologizing and rehabilitating he was allowed back. Combat cheated as recently as weeks ago and has never shown any sort of remorse for it. He wants the attention, and it doesn't matter if it's negative or not, that's just showing people that you can BM, you can cheat, and you'll still get the attention of top pros and showmatches without consequences. This isn't something we want to promote.
I'd just like to thank all the people who have PM'd and given support despite our stance to be relatively unpopular here on Reddit. I understand why "censorship" and what we do can provoke such strong opinions, but I just urge that everyone consider that sometimes, it's OK to disagree without being insulting and hateful.
Combat-Ex displays 0 remorse, apology or regret for his habits and actions unlike the names you've mentioned (not sure about Major though).

Ok, thanks for the explanation. That seems like a very reasonable stance to me!

No problem, I feel it is too :3
