def gonna look into adding neutral rep when im back too, and tweaking the rep system, at this moment im leaning towards removing the ability to leave neg rep comments but not the neg rep ability. still needs further discussion with the admins and we will go over the thread discussion again
Not to derail this thread, as there was the other one that was more on topic, but there are so many posts i read where in my head, all i hear is - "was that really necessary to post?" Something that has had little forethought, little contribution to the thread itself, and an infinitely small chance of actually generating interesting discussion. But then, you dont want to neg rep these posts because a comment saying "dull, was that necessary to post" can be seen as elitist and non-productive. But then to neg rep without a comment feels even worse...
If neutral rep is introduced, it hopefully has an "i'm bored" emoticon. As I presume the neg rep system was introduced to shame those that are posting vile or insulting comments. But then there is a whole lot of filler posts as well. If you haven't put forethought and proof read what you are writing (or taken the small amount of time to split it into paragraphs), well then maybe there should be a way to give someone a small amount of neg rep. Reading that sentence again makes me sound like an elitist jerk though, which is not the case at all. But why not something simple (in theory, it may not be simple for you coding guys) where 3 negative comments = -1 rep. If others are also bored, maybe they should be giving neutral rep also, but there will never be enough of it given to seriously affect a rep score.
Just a thought, and definitely not a requirement. I love sc2sea, best site and community i have been involved in.

Quick and easy... some links to external VODS like GSL, MLG and other Pro Tournaments. Even just links to their respective sites all in one place for the lazy like me!
Is there a way to make a poll in a post? I realize that you can make one with a topic, but it'd be nice just to be able to make small ones in a post. Not sure how hard it is to implement though (or if we already can and I'm just stupid LOL)
Is there any chance of improving the sites "Search" function? It doesnt seem to search very well... idk.
Maybe theres some cray-cray trick to it, but lately mashing my face into the keyboard seems to yield results of equivalent relevance as when i type the the threads title, word-for-word
If practical, can you see if it is possible to put our diablo name and main character icon on the green information bar. If this is not a goer, maybe in our information page.
Can we get the Diable forum section moved back down from the top (on the side)? Being an SC2 site and all, it's just more convienent to have relevant threads or news feeds there instead.
1. Is it possible to view streams if you click from the blog page? Always buggers up for me because the stream link doesn't work when it goes through the blog... subdomain/directory?
2. Why do we have a search function which has to wait 20 seconds between searches?
I was accessing this site via mobile, so everything is really tiny. Read some threads and couldnt really go back to the homepage because my fat fingers couldn't hit the home link.
Suggestion: make the banner clickable so that it brings us to the homepage.
