teamliquid

why did they make that rule

what, shit sounds pretty stupid over there

you have no idea. literally 100% of lpnet threads would be deleted from tlnet and the users banned. not saying that lpnet threads are decent

god, i hated so many of the people on TL. i totally agree with you most mods pissed me the fuck off. LP is much better, i've seen a few idiots but not NEARLY as many as there is on TL lol

tlnet has turned into poop.
It used to be that if you were a long time poster as long as you posted something good for the community you had a lot of leeway. Now they're strictly going after veterans because suppodely its their duty to set high standards of posting, while not enforcing their own forum policies on new posters. When was the last time you saw an SC2 balance discussion with 7 platinum reps in it? Never? Right.
And moderating blog is a sign of complete retardation.
They're blogs ffs. Seriously gotta be retarded.

if you didnt know Baal just got perm banned from tlnet (2 months ago) for calling someone a redneck (the guy said something along the lines of "its okay to kill innocent people if it stops their government doing wrong" or something)

They didn't make it a rule, Perisie aka Chibi is just butthurt and making shit up. He's also been banned multiple times there.

TL has to be more heavily modded than LP bcuz theres so much more traffic there and a lot more posts.

a super lenient atmosphere is fine if the community is small.

also there is never good coming from a religion thread. if youve ever read the religion threads there youd understand this rule.

and lol you cant seriously think he was banned for just that one comment.

"what you say" doesnt have any meaning on tlnet anymore, its all about "how you say it"
and dont expect to have any fun on tlnet anymore. having fun is pretty much asking for a ban.

If "having fun" means desiring to have sex with 10 year olds, then yes.

Gotta remember the big difference between a site focusing on poker as of that focusing on a video game: People are, generally but not always, much more immature on TL.net than on liquidpoker as one is just a video game and one is played with real money, which cancels out most kids under the age of 18.

Teamliquid has had to become a lot more strict lately with the influx of all the new SC2 players and traffic coming with the beta. TL does a lot with blizzard as well, and blizzard views them as a community that is respected and qualified enough to take advice from and allow special privileges to the representatives of the website

I would much rather prefer TL as the way it is than a site like 4chan or world of warcraft forum. People are respectful, topics arent completely derailed, trolls are dealt with, etc etc. The community is very strong, and the site hopes to grow professionally. They may be a little strict with their guidelines in a few areas, but I personally believe it is for the best interest of the website and the community

/end TL brown nosing

WOW IM SO FUCKING STUPID I NEVER REALISED THAT A BUSIER FORUM MIGHT NEED HEAVIER MODERATION. THAT NEVER CAME TO PLAY IN MY PREVIOUS THOUGHTS. HOT DAMN.

also, i agree. there is nothig ever good coming from politics threads either. and space flight is a load of baloney. we haven't had anything new come out of space flight in 10 fucking YEARS. and dont get me started about tobacco. jeez tobacco i should be banned for even mentioning it.

you dont get it. moderation is awesome in tlnet, but frequently steps over the line. people get banned for making funny jokes, people get banned for posting images, people get banned for making blogs or comments someone doesnt agree with, people get banned for typing in capital letters in fucking hype or live tourney threads, people get banned for making silly jokes, people get banned for typing in unconventional styles, people get banned for swearing, people get banned for being passionate ,people get banned for not fitting in, people get banned for whatever a mod disagrees with on a whim, and people often get banned for simple misunderstandings. the mods on tlnet are such insane elitists i know for a fact people are SCARED SHITLESS to join in many discussions. tlnet as a result has lost soooooooooooo much personality.

have you ever been on a forum where silly jokes, ,swearing, controversial opinions, etc are banned? its pretty fucking bland.

welcome to tlnet 2010. nowadays if someone makes a funny joke its more like they got a lucky break and you think "oh wow, that guy got a lucky break and made a funny joke. lucky he wasnt one of 50 people who were banned trying to make a joke".

its official rule that you cant discuss religion on tlnet, and pedophilia is nothing to do with me , i had the top 5-20 post count on tlnet 4 years in a row not because some faggot christians wanted to argue that giving out condoms in schools was promoting pedophilia but because i am awesome............L2P

I'm gonna have to ask you to cite SPECIFIC bans and posts that people got banned for. Cause heretofore all I see is you making shit up, getting super angry, posting in all caps, acting indignant, and generally showing yourself to be an asshat. TL.net is certainly different from when I joined 5 years ago, but to say the moderation there is horrible is absolutely absurd. It is one of the most well moderated sites in existence on the internet, and I can't find a single mod there that does not take their job seriously and do their best to make sure every person who gets a ban deserved it. What your post count was matters very little, and it certainly does not prove you are awesome. You're not awesome, your posts suck, you're a flamboyant pedophile, and those things, among others, are why you got banned. Deal with it. I imagine its only a matter of time before the mods here get tired of you as well.

lol, i got banned for trying to explain to people that they can't care for a kid that died from cancer because they just read about it on tl, and do not actually know that kid has cancer.

my philosophy is not welcome on tl.net

tec i have cited specific bans and even had a forum dedicated to exposing tlnet moderation http://talk-to-stimey-please.1324083....com/TL-is-Closed-Minded-f2332137.html

unfrtunately tlnet bullshit got so rampant we gave up trying to keep up with it. all you have to do is flick through the banned list these days and find some crazy bans.

as for your 5 sentences above about how i suck, how ironic that such a bileful post would have been deleted and resulted in a perm ban for you had you posted it in on tlnet. i dont even have to put any effort in at all to show people what pathetic double standards you employ. seriously hang your head in shame. pathetic

That post would not have been deleted on TL.net. How do I know that? Well, in my 5 years of posting there, I haven't once felt the need to hold back on things like that, and not once have I been banned or even warned. Its kinda funny, when you contribute stuff to the community and actually do good stuff, instead of just posting shitty threads and shitting up good ones, people actually like having you around. But thats probably too much for you to grasp; you can return to hanging out with stimey and tdot now.

In 1989 Briere and Runtz conducted a study on 193 male undergraduate students concerning pedophilia. Of the sample, 21% acknowledged sexual attraction to some small children A study by Hall et al. of Kent State University found that, of their sample of 80 adult male volunteers, 26.25 % exhibited sexual arousal to heterosexual pedophilic stimuli that equaled or exceeded their arousal to the adult stimuli. I nicked the alias Chibi when I saw it on an FF mailing list back when I was like 14. Don't think I knew what it meant or anything. And most hentai chicks don't look nine, I dunno what the hell you're watching unless it's from deadfrog in which case I do lol.

idk you seem to have the persona of being a pedo :O

I truly enjoy TL being one of the community's where I can look at a strategy thread without seeing pages and pages of "lol'd you suck" posts and pic posts saying things like "WTF R U TALKIN BOUT?" in an attempt to be funny.

I also see plenty of funny posts on TL. Yes, they may not be nearly as racy as some other sites, but while those jokes may be vacant, logical discussion and topics stay on track. Besides, 90-95% of the supposed "jokes" on other sites people are trying to make are extremely stupid and unfunny.

Also, looking at that thread about your post history, do you truly feel they were 100% unjust in banning you, after countless warning and temp bans?

BTW, I'm a psychologist so if you truly are a pedophile, I understand how horrible the situation can be with dealing with your disorder. However, you have to understand the image of your disorder and the pain it can bring onto others families and friends if acted upon. Attempting to joke about it will only bring you very strong resistance from others.

You can be totally joking and trolling when you try to defend pedophilia, but if you have these thoughts and feelings, I ask you to please seek help. It is not a harmless fetish by any means.

I can say with confidence this type of blog about LP would be instantly closed and the OP banned on teamliquid

the manifesto thread about chibi getting banned was really weaksauce and not a single one of those random chibi quotes he put there were even remotely ban worthy.. lol wtf ?

maybe the last quote, the thread chibi is talking about could of been awkward.

idk I don't really have a strong opinion on tlnet since I have hardly visited the site for years now

and maybe I just shouldn't post cuz I really don't know the whole story and I'm not that interested in learning it LAWL

I really want to know which people on here think that TL has good forums and is moderated well. The threads now are horrendous. My friend who was an old school veteran and frequented the site constantly no longer posts there because it is a pile of fail. The threads are garbage. The discussions level is at an all time low. There are way too many people trolling stupid shit and not anything relevant at all and then terrible moderation. You can't continue on in a good discussion on a controversial topic at all without trash clogging up the thread and then mods either shutting it down or not banning idiots for derailing threads or posting stupid replys that are absolute garbage. They also ban and warn people for the most outrageous stuff but then other times let people slide for shit they should be banned for. I hate the way TL is going and is now.

Chill got on me one time hard for trying to contribute to a thread when I responded to a poster and flamers. I was unaware there was some crazy shit that had gone down in the lounge that was exactly like the topic being discussed where the douche kid claimed to have an M3. I actually own an M3 and was trying to have a decent conversaition about the difference between rx8 and bmw's and i got railed from chill and some other posters when i wasn't out of line at all. I ended up getting a temp ban for it for no reason until tons of people came to defend me and they lifted the ban when chill realized he was being a total idiot

TL is good for BW stuff only, for discussing things like adults LP is the better choice.

LOL!

I agree with Evilsky, I think TL.net is pretty shitty nowadays. I've gotten banned from the site for posting a link to a torrent when someone asked. It was a lifetime ban. That's not even why I think it's shitty though, it's mainly that the discussions there just plain suck. This community we have here is far better and so is the moderation.

Carthac, are you really a psychologist? You just called pedophilia a fetish...

He didnt call it a fetish, he said its not a "harmless fetish" . Anyways enough derail, but yea I rly think the overall level of intelligence is higher on LP than TL and of course its a private site so they are free to moderate it as they want its just seems so stupid sometimes -.-
