I couldn't find any similar threads so I thought it would be nice to see what the TL community thought about it. So I'm just wondering why it got closed so soon =/ Edit: added link
We don't allow threads are basically a poll. There's not enough content to warrant it staying open. |

Okay, understandable enough :D |

I wasn't sour about the thing being closed, it's just the way it happened and the reasons given seemed a tad bit offensive and even (at the least partially) insulting. If the closing note would have given that reason you put down there clearly from the beginning it would have saved me some nerves.  EDIT: Also, would it be possible to add that as a warning or something to the rules? That would have saved me half a day of writing, researching and putting things together.
I appreciate that but keep in mind when you're grinding through closing all these threads you reach a point where you don't really mind offending someone to just write "This thread is bad" and closing it. Yes, in an ideal world we would systematically write the thinking process that leads to it being closed, but I don't have the patience for that anymore. |

I was disappointed that the Ultralisk prediction thread was closed. I've been around a while and can generally predict which threads will get closed and this one had some epic and in some cases very fun discussion.
It also gave us the opportunity to try to say in 1 weeks time "I won" because we predicted it right.
I saw it as a thread with positive effect on the site.
Here it is: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=123994
Its not my thread but I was very much enjoying reading it. Last edit: 2010-05-08 00:24:52 |

It's obvious the admin who closed the thread never bothered to fully read it.
His arguments are exactly those which I disagree entirely about.
RE: Asians are better at starcraft2 because there's more of them, they play more.
Would have thought a moderator who closes a thread would at least do the courtesy of fully reading through a post before making a decision, let alone make parting comments which only proves my point. |

How can that be so? Kennigit is white and therefore creative. His arguments are by definition new, innovative and exciting.

I posted a reply to the topic regarding a StarCraft 2 Tournament in Amsterdam and it's no longer there. It was a pretty simple message, something along the vein of "Sounds cool, I'll definitely be there"
I'd like to know why it was removed  |

Looks like you didn't post it in the first place. Post count doesn't go down when posts are deleted, and all 5 of your posts are accounted for.Last edit: 2010-05-21 09:01:54 |

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=126444. I think this thread brings up issues that seriously need to be addressed. On the other hand, I think a lot of people are too attached to their racial biases and so forth to actually consider a rational discussion of these issues. I think that this thread is a good segue into a more serious discussion of important problems with SC2, and I'd prefer that it wasn't closed until it could at least get a bit more exposure.
Anyway, I understand the thread being closed but if that's the final decision can I revive it in my blog?Last edit: 2010-05-21 09:04:19 |

I posted in that thread, but, to be fair, there was no actual discussion. The mods tend to dislike threads wherein the posters disregard every other post.
Also, the new forum features are amazing. The compact pagination is incredibly convenient, and I see now a "Report" feature per post. Someone's been a busy little wizard. |

But this is the opposite, you'd rather read fun quotes than post them. |

I don't have a report option, it's probly limited to those who've got a certain # of posts or who've been on the board a certain time.
As for that thread, well, with how outnumbered the mods are, compared to the flood of awful threads and posters, there's bound to be some friendly fire here and there while they struggle to keep it under control. It'll get worse before it gets better :| |

Darn, you just made me realize I also have the report option. It looked a bit crowded but I didn't properly look before...
Awesome job coders, let's see if I can contribute in this way (I'm quite trigger shy though, don't worry.) |
