Reason: yes let's constantly refer to progamers as trash and constantly whine about how bad they are
^_^ I lub Harem
Oh how I wish that was a perm. I don't really want to be hateful towards a fellow forum goer, but this guy spends a lot of time telling us how bad BW pros are playing ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/YublL.gif) In LR threads, no less.
He goes full retard sometimes. I had to argue with him on more than one occasion. |

| He did so much for the BW community that he had to balance his karma by trashing progamers. |

| I could understand it a bit, maybe he just really like BW. This time I think it's more just being a bit too passionate about BW over SC2. I hope he'll cool down after the temp though. |

| I completely agree with the temp ban. I'm just saying that everything is not black and white, and that sometimes there's a certain gloating attitude in this thread which is annoying as hell. |

No, I pretty sure we all agree with you here ^^ he has definitely been a great part of the site in terms of the BW community. |

Can you imagine running Eyefinity with those?
I hope you enjoy 100ms+ of input lag because that's what you're going to get from local dimming TVs. I love the OP though and really should be immortalized: Before anyone says that it's too expensive for a TV, this is not an OLED TV. It is an ultra-thin LCD TV with Smart TV functionality
The only thing that would justify such a price tag is OLED. Nothing else. Not even local dimming because you can get similarly sized local dimming sets from Sony and Sharp for over half the price less. The worst thing about the OP is that it didn't give a single piece of information for people to discuss on besides "look how thin it is!". Which isn't really a great thing if you really care about image quality.
It'd almost be worth the input lag, just for the badassery. Just to say you did it.
This so much. In my opinion he was actually closer to being just a huge-ass fanboy than advertising, but generally if you go through his posts, they're nearly completely worthless. But maybe he was just that big of a fan. I can imagine a room with samsung wallwallpaper, desktop wallpaper, samsung flags, tons of samsung electronics, samsung floor tiles, and he's sitting there dressed with samsung polo shirt, samsung shorts, samsung branded watch, and samsung underwear sticking out the back. And suddenly he sees the news about an ultra-thin 75" samsung lcd tv.
Fanboy is one thing (even though he's quite ignorant if you know a single thing about the technology he talks about). Being nationalistic and arguably racist is another thing. Go through his post history. If he has a chance to trash China, Taiwan, and (especially) Japan he will do it. Whaling, women, technology. Doesn't matter.
He loves LG and Samsung. They're both South Korean. He thinks Asus and Benq (both Taiwanese IIRC) make trash monitors that are far worse than anything Samsung and LG. Though anyone with a basic understanding of monitor technology knows Asus is pretty good and not really any better/worse than Samsung and LG.
He says he likes Dell, which is strange because their only good monitor lineup is the Ultrasharp lineup. I think the only time he's ever mentioned liking them is whenever someone called him out on being biased.
Then you've got that HTC One X (HTC is a Taiwanese company) vs. GS3 blog spot that got him banned in the first place.
I mean go ahead be a fanboy. A fanboy can still admit that Flash can be extremely stupid and Fantasy was pretty trash for most of the 2010-2011 season. But don't post trash threads that have close to zero room for discussion and don't be so intentionally hard headed when someone calls you out on your bullshit. The 75" TV thread had so little useful information that I actually had to do my own research to learn why a LCD TV was 17k.Last edit: 2012-07-09 01:30:48 |

| Ah I see, fair enough. I didn't catch too many of his posts so I probably wasn't qualified/entitled to say that, and was just kidding. He really must be a pretty massive fanboy judging by that, then. Didn't know it was symptomatic of a larger problem of being just crazy nationalistic. Thanks for clearing that up, didn't know that. |

Wow, iAmJeffReY got temped in the IPL LR thread for balance whining:
iAmJeffReY was just temp banned for 2 days by Ares[Effort].
That account was created on 2010-08-14 10:47:44 and had 2487 posts.
Reason: Balance whining in LR thread. Incriminating post: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=347205¤tpage=29#564
I'm surprised to see him whine like this. He is/was a good contributer to SC2 strategy. :/
I guess the queen buff really pissed off a lot of Terran players a lot more than I thought.Last edit: 2012-07-09 01:24:23 |

| Yeah, apparently LR threads can take down the best of us :O and hey, that was the mentioned thread where people were getting bans all over the place. |

Thanks. I missed that one. I don't get how he thought he would get away with it. I mean it wasn't even funny in the slightest, and showing a picture of a murdered persons body (I assume), is bad taste in it self without the BW shit. How stupid can you be? What is that "people have no sense of humor" shit, I know I repeat my self but how do you find that funny? |

| Jaaaaasper United States. July 09 2012 04:06. Posts 2435 | Profile Blog # |
How is that picture funny, from the point of a body that looks like a murder victim. Maybe he was trying to make a point, but that is the wrong way to go about it. Not funny at all, but very screwed up. He went full reddit (or retard, take your pick). |

What tournaments? I'm not making the connection, but I've been rather busy lately, so they might've slipped my attention.
