Thnx for posting MetroBNE feel free to add me on skype jared.krensel and i can point you towards some people/contacts to speak that stuff over with!

Unfortunately I think chat ingame is largely unused to meet new people due to the poor interface and as a result you get a lot of the bored younger guys idling in them waiting to troll or insult newcomers. To my knowledge pracbud is generally filled with really nice people but like in any channel it's only the evenings you get a good number of people actually in the channel. That being said I just re-read what you said and yeah I'm not sure im understanding if the responses were as negative as I thought from your post as you did say they were "politely put taints" which is a very odd expression. Do you just mean basically a bunch of the dudes in chat started acting like cocky nerds saying "ugh don't play random you won't improve" "lol i won't prac with you im gm" etc etc. ?

This is why joining a clan is vital to increasing your ingame experience. It's just like joining a club in terms of giving you a connection to other players and an expected level of behaviour so you can chat, find practice partners and improve at the game in a fun environment. The chat channels just aren't as active or friendly as in other games due to poor design and no ingame clan support.

I'm glad your passion for gaming and sc2 hasn't been dampened though. If it had I would be very sad. That's why I think it's vital to keep the forum free of the trolling and personal insults that can't be moderated on bnet.

Glad you've decided to put in a helping hand at such an exciting time for us I'm really excited to have another talented and passionate person join the community!

Thanks again for jumping in head-first Met!
