There's a bad ratio between good and bad feedback in the protech's stream thread. I heard that he randomly accused people of stream cheating. If he is de-featured, he won't be able to blame anyone except for himself or his allies.

Aside from Idra and Sheth, isn't Vibe the 3rd most accomplished NA Zerg? He has some mad skills and whenever he commentates his stream I always learn something that teaches me how to react to what I see much faster than I would learn through grinding on my own.

while there is a lot out outrage against this. Im for it. It gives more players the opportunity to get featured and frankly the list before was getting boring.

i feel now at least that featured players will feel its a privilege and not a right like they have been treating it. If you cant draw viewers or havent won anything significant then you shouldnt be featured. players who have between 50-250 viewers should be removed from featured and give other people a shot because obviously your viewership isnt going up if youve been given enough time to improve your stream and still draw low numbers.

But like i said being featured is a privilege not a right and i think a lot of players think just because they are GM or on a good team they should get featured right away when thats just not the case.

SLush is probably the next best. His MLG results are consistantly strong

Why is inKa refeatured? I understand the reasons are confidential, but you have someone with significantly less achievements [in comparison] (was previously with EG, then went to Lz and then QxG where he achieved the same as he did back with EG), same number of viewers (220 I believe is the number he achieves, by all means correct me) and about the same level of notoriety but he gets (re)featured?

Is it because he asked his Twitter followers to spam the boards begging him to be refeatured (good for them, really loyal!)? I don't understand now and I'm really confused. We have three Montreal Protoss players: one who doesn't really talk to us (kiwikaki), TT1 who's now teamless and equally as uncommunicative and the underdog who practices and beats both consistently: Attero. One's teamless, one's going to WCG Korea and one is retiring considering he can no longer make a living off his passion (which he was doing marginally before).

I'm not angry, just heavily disappointed and discouraged. He offered all the key points except he didn't draw in the traffic TL is looking for (which is coincidentally the same numbers some other featured people have been drawing in all day today [not necessarily a fair comparison, but it's to set a point]).

Ugh. No, he's not on a majorly famed team (unless you consider CS: S a very important game, in which case, he's on the arguably best CS: S team around). He draws at least above 150 and he offers everything that grows a community: coaching, interaction, uploads replays of all his games against professionals he consistently beats (and not one time or another, he's beaten idra more than 3 times, we're talking without fail or problem, he's beaten him on all sorts of maps via ladder).

I know I sound like a broken record and the idea of "if we do it for him, we'll have to do it with everyone else" is probably a high likelihood, but I urge you to reconsider or at least, as someone suggested, give a probationary 2 weeks.

I beseech you representatives and administrators of Team Liquid to explain why this change to featured (and thus un-featured) streams was necessary. I suppose there is something to say for streamlining (pun intended), but its not like the list of featured streams was becoming unmanageably long. It seems to me that there is a not so insignificant number of streamers who stand to lose a lot a viewers (and thus a lot of revenue). This appears particularly sucky to me, irrespective of whether or not their streams meet your seemingly inconsistent and arbitrary metric.
