Due to going WAY OT here, I'm continuing this in the Off-Topic board, Mark.

I've got a bit more experience with TFT due to being one of the 30,000 users that were selected for the Beta Test.

As for the ESWC, no. I hadn't even heard of it. Could use that kind of money, but I'm no where NEAR the caliber that is required for that type of tournament.

Compared to most "idiot" battle.net users, I'd probably be considered a good ol' fashioned "N00B". Believe it or not, I've had other players (on my teams) tell me what to build (and not very nicely either). So in turn, I just ignore them.

Even on battle.net, I see competitive gameplay like a sport. Keep it clean, keep it well mannered and don't be a snot.

I don't tolerate unsportsman-like conduct in any way. Includes rudeness(Bad mouthing opponents/Teammates, etc), lame tactics (IE: Rushing, distracting opponents, etc). I'm sure you get my drift.

Look me up on the Lordaeron server. You'll find my alias in your PM box.


Hmm sorry to hear about dicks being rude. I don't ever touch team games, because I dont have any good team mate, and playing with some random guy seems to me totally pointless (in part because of what you mentioned, them being rude or so). I like 1on1 because I've only got myself to blame if i lose, and its so much easier playing when I want to, and so on. (on a side note, I've seen americans come over to play on the european server because they say people are nicer here, try that )

I totally agree in disliking bad manners, rude behavior and the like. However, and no offence here, I totally disagree about rushing and distracting. It's called agressive play and harrassing, and its a very big part of the game, atleast on high levels of play. You see top players rushing all the time, and it's never considered unsportsman-like. Sure if you just want a relaxing game you probably don't enjoy getting rushed, but on the competetive side of it, rushing is meant to be a part of gameplay.

I just realized you maybe meant talking in a distractive way when you said "distracting opponents", in that case I agree but then you could just squelch him .

Well anyway its interesting to talk about warcraft3 on a F-zero board, cool to see that people actually play more games than F-zero (even if it rules). Finally, sorry for going so off-topic before, and sorry for my bad ingrish

PS. If you're interested, check out www.replayers.com. A good replay site in my opinion

Heh. I prefer team games, but Random Team(RT) I'm not too fond of. I'll stick with Arranged Team(AT).

Personally, I think Blizzard Entertainment should institute a 10 minute Rush counter. Of course, I'm not that great a player, so that may have something to do with why I dislike that tactic.

Yup. Squelch is a wonderful function.

As for going OT, don't worry about it. We could have kept it going in the same thread, but I'd probably have been in a bit of warm water for that one.

As for the "bad ingrish", again, Don't worry about it. I'm VERY well versed in typonese. (One of the skills you HAVE to pick up when being a moderator, be it on a forum or chat room. )
