Yeah, sigh...
I feel like the quality of the TL forum has gone waaay down over the years, while everything else on the site has dramatically improved. Now TL is full of 4chan kids making single picture posts or one-liners instead of actually writing up a decent post. Half the things I read on here make me cringe. It doesn't bother me all that much though, in the end. Because I simply don't read the forum as often as I used to.
But know we have new articles more often, Liquipedia, etc. So I don't know, I guess that's the price we have to pay.
Also, I miss Sandlot!!! That was a glorious time to be a Starcraft fan. Probably the last time I will ever get to see people like Nazgul or Kaaz play, too. So depressing. And FA!! What happened to you?! You used to be so gosu!!

Gun, I think part of it is just growing out of it.
I used to post all the time. Now I don't. I think this has more to do with me growing up than TL's content all that much.
|
I remember when there was only a few people who could do live reports and everyone mashed F5 to find out more. Now we have these fancy streams and vods.
|
Also, i think it has a lot to do with SC2 coming out soon, before SC2 there was only this smallish tight community but now pretty much everyone knows about starcraft and wants to follow the scene.

Yes. You're right. I just don't want to grow up is all. I want to be a kid FOREVER!!

Probably the last time I will ever get to see people like Nazgul or Kaaz play, too. So depressing. And FA!! What happened to you?! You used to be so gosu!! Honestly, a lot is nostalgia. Some of it is that the site was smaller, and it started off with a lot of really high quality members as it was basically all the good people from bw.com and halpmeh.com.
I think there's still a TON of good posts, and a lot of parts of the site are just way, way better now than they were then. There's just a lot more people "passing through".
I guess there's also not as many active, high level players posting but since I don't read the strategy forum much anymore, I can't say how that section has been affected.
Oh and... poker happened =]
Speaking of Sandlot... don't think these games were ever released:

Since we had the same score on our team (I went 2-0, 2-0, 1-2, he went 1-2, 2-0, 2-0 or 2-1, 2-0 I think) we played a BO5 to decide who would get the lions share of the MVP money (500$ split 300/200).

I miss the days when TL was not so much about progaming. Everytime I see "Starcraft Pro Gaming News" I get sad. When did that stuff start to fowl the first page? Also annoyed by the inflation in post count. I guess it's partly due to the forum is bigger but everyone and his mother have over 1k posts after a few months and people joining after 2006 are considered forum veterans.

gawd this is too flattering( im not worth mentioning obviously) kdog must be talking about some other account that was banned long ago, "food" is definitely not old i used to lurk TL since 2004, those were the "old days" for me( before i even posted anything) i dont know if it was much better, probably more drama than these days if anything content has improved imo

Almost a decade you've been on this site, that's pretty impressive.
