I understand why the IGN facebook like thread was closed because a lot of people would follow this example and try to get publicity like this, but it does feel like there is a double standard when the CJ twitter retweet thread aka effort coming back thread was not closed.

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=201812 <-- CJ thread. Before the announcement it was basically the same type of thread.

Edit: I noticed the op for the IGN thread basically just quoted 2 lines and then wrote 2 more of his own. I can understand closing the thread because of that.

I think the topic gave off the impression that it was more intended for you personally than for meaningful and interesting discussion (than for everyone else).

That's my take on it, you can try private messaging the staff member for a more direct clarification (the above is only my opinion).

This thread:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=215307

I planned to play around with logical fallacies a bit, but it got closed.
Before that I searched the forum and there is a thread on directional wiping and about the folding/crumbling controversy.

If I oversaw a thread, I'm sorry. If there is none and the reason is that the subject of the thread does not adhere to TL.net posting standards, I can accept that too. If though the subject matter was found to be of no interest, I'd rather that the visitors decide and that the thread would just die on its own.

Hi I would like to know why this thread was closed. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=222573

So many zergs are complaining about lack of scouting options, I thought it would be useful to show how good overlords are.....

I really don;t think I'm saying one race is better, I'm trying to say that zerg scouting is better then everyone thinks...
I assure you I don't have ferrets in my pants

My guess is that your approach wasn't the best. To compare scans with Overlords is to assume they're on par or at the same level or degree or usefulness.

When in reality, they are vastly different and could not be compared. Apples and Oranges, they're both sources of vitamis (like scans and overlords are sources of scouting), but they're different in terms of cost (lose supply/lose energy + MULE) and cost (100 minerals and potentially supply-capped/lose mining of a potential mule), etc. etc.

That's my understanding.

It's a pretty low level discussion that doesn't further anything. It's like saying an 18-wheeler is better than a car because it's more expensive and bigger. You've completely ignored all the other factors involved in the discussion (risk analysis, lost production, vulnerability to early timings, even how to get your overlords in position to be sacrifised, etc.). You tried to turn it into apples to apples, which isn't possible.

The "this" on your blog that got closed was a link to this thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=210370

Basically, you failed to tag your thread correctly, thus, the thread got closed. You failed to meet one of the most basic requirements, it's as simple as that.
Blah.

"I will post the replay below, note that it is vs Hard A.I. and not another human. Please submit feedback telling me what I could have done better if possible Thank you!"

This is the guidelines

[H] Help threads.

Post a replay, give your own analysis, get help!

The classic “Why did I lose this game?”. For these threads it is absolutely required that you post a replay. No exceptions. Nobody is going to be able to help you if you won’t post a replay.

Additionally, first put some thought into what happened in the game, and include your own analysis into the thread. It might be wrong, but try your best. It doesn’t have to be long, a few point form lines is enough to give people a starting point to give you advice. Your thread won’t last if you won’t put any effort in it.

If you have specific questions, ask them along with your analysis. It’s always easier to reply if we know what exactly you need help with.

Here is the "How is the World Going to End" thread:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=225343

I posted basically this exact same thread awhile ago, but mine was closed.

My thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=133083

I was curious why mine was closed, while the other one is allowed to stay open.
Thanks.

I'm not a fan of the guy, but I'm curious why the thread got closed and the op got nuked.

I know he cheated for tsl2, but that didn't stop Dimaga from getting a fan club. He's BM, but no more BM than some other big names. Is it a combination of the two that no one else has, or is there part of the story I'm not aware of?

Why was this thread closed just 30 seconds after I made it? I know I only have 6 posts, but I've been on here since 2004 and I think it is a legitimate question for the Starcraft 2 Strategy subforum...

The standards for the strategy forum are kept quite high. Did you read the guideline at the top of the forum ?

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=113479

A few things missing. Tags, replays, in dept anaylisis. People cant help your gameplay if you dont show it. Nor should you expect them to if you dont provide a good analysis yourself. Though I'm not a mod this is how I would feel about your post.

I saw that, I'm not asking for an in depth analysis of my play. I want to know the top 3 TvZ players, to study them. All the ones I've seen so far seem to lose most of the time. Is there a better subforum to ask?

Best players are usually from Korea and good luck getting their replays, you are better off checking some replay site and just grabbing 10-100 TvZ replays regardless of whether they win or lose and practice the opening, there is strategy that wins 100% of the time. Judging by your post, a lot of the high level play would be over your head at this point too.

I worry that if I explain the joke here it might no longer be funny . Sad that it's locked though.
