I teamliquid and I think for the most part their moderators do an excellent job. People who are banned are always gonna bitch - the interesting thing however, is no matter how much those guys hate TL mods or their rules or whatever they still end up going back using the site and remaking new accounts. I find it ironic they can't stop themselves using a site they have so much hatred for.

the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning: the irony of her reply, “How nice!” when I said I had to work all weekend.
It is funny indeed. It's more a satirical cartoon (caricature works in this meaning in English ?) than ironic. It's an exaggeration to express in a funny way the opinion that Team Liquid Forum (and sc2sea) rules are too harsh.
Where it is a bit biased is that moderation here and there don't punish different opinions but behaviors that are not accepted. There is a thread about those rules and everyone have the opportunity to express his own opinion about how rules are.
The caricature comes from the fact that TLF has so many posters that they increase in proportion their harshness to maintain readability of posts and try to skim so to have only the more interesting things. When you have a thread with 600 pages, frankly who read them ?
is it the site they have a hatred for or the style of moderation?
would have thought that the two things are completely different imo; the community =! its admins and moderators.
still, great image.
There's a relationship between the two though. How a site is moderated has a massive impact on the culture of the site. People express opinions differently depending on the rules in place in the community. Some are drawn to the community because of these rules, whilst others are pushed away. Ultimately the "harsh" moderation of TL is a big reason SCreddit gets so much traffic.
It's not a direct and dependant relationship but it definitely has a strong impact.
