And yes, the sc franchise is more sophisticated mechanically and far more competitive (kespa) than any other game and i dont have a problem with it not being mainstream like moba games which come and go like flies. | ||

And if people like MOBAs more, then they should like MOBAs more if they want to have a chance to "survive" in the e-gaming scene. So there may be an implicit preference about MOBAs and so they treat their MOBA users friendlier. Yeah, you're off the mark lol. TL staff actively hate and avoid LoL, the current biggest esport. It isn't about business to them. | ||

But it's really obnoxious how much people can hate on SC2 without getting any form of warning or something. | ||

Because moderation isn't perfect, and we don't have a team of hundreds of people reading the forums? Its what the report button is for. In general game bashing, of any sort is a no-no, and we're never going to let people bash games. I don't especially care if you're flaming LoL, SC2, DotA, MtG, Dominons 4, or any other game, there is a difference between rational discourse and "HAHAHA, GAME X IS SO LOW SKILLS AND FOR NOOBS!"

Its untrue that staff hates LoL, check Nazgul's little AMA in the LoL forum here, but that mental image of tl staff hating league has been, and is wrong. | ||

A bias towards SC2 should be expected and tolerated. On the other hand, "game bashing", which is unreasonably, any game will never lead to a positive community..... it's just bad dialogue | ||

TL is a place for more directed conversations about SC2 than other forums, namely /r/starcraft allow for (by virtue of the format and much more active moderation), not allowing for tired jokes about the qualities of other games doesn't make it less of an SC site. You can have opinions on whatever you want, just don't be an ass about how you express them, or preface them with, "I'll get banned for this," and own your statement. I would also say you are failing to account for existing rapport between mods and users. | ||

Fair enough, but it's a bit hard to believe it's a coincidence that ALL (there were like 10) the negative comments about dota were noticed and received a warning, whereas this was not. And that (BabyKnight retires) thread isn't the only one I've noticed this trend in. | ||
