Love the positive rep from pickleweasle in there.... considering how i got about 3 pages of BM him from saying how noob I am for being in TA / I would be bronze if i wasnt protoss and i didnt even speak to him besides the gl hf but he kept going even after the game lol.
Similar experiences with pickleweasel.
Anyway I am against these threads bringing what is said between two players in a private game into a public forum without any purpose other than to take things out of context and humiliate people. If you make a thread with well-known bad manner/reputation players to keep an eye on (for clans considering recruiting them, etc.) such as ZanooKu that's fine but this doesn't really contribute anything.

@Edge: wow, really. I just said other people like Potthead, who I replied to, should not just wave away BM 'because it's from someone on TA'. And I just said that it shouldn't happen for any organisation. Potthead is not even from TA. I did not try and say anyone from TA had that mentality.
Yes i know that it was more to Potthead, but i just recall back to the WCG/blizzcon incident and i just see that same sort of deep down annoyance in your post. My bad for taking you the wrong way. I am more annoyed by other things but gave you bad rep, sorry!
yeah bad experiences in CW with Nerve, they had a player Manner mules and Manner CCs in multiple games. When we request the player to stop, his clanmates blatantly supported him and said its to "ask" the opponent to leave the game.

Well ain't this the productive thread?... most people commenting in here are adults.. and learnt to deal with petty name calling many years ago (I hope -_-).. If someone manner mules you, proxy nexus or what ever.. deal with it. its not a big deal... if someone says, you so noob.. learn to play.. etc.. deal with it.. I don't get that people actually get offended by that.. so, who cares if some noob thinks your a noob?.. (Santi will call them a noob back for you, I'm sure)...
Regardless, who cares if someone types shit at you.. unless they overstep the boundaries and use racism or make real threats - then there is no need to care, nor give them your time by posting a thread about how someone raged at you. or, that they gave you the ..|..
BM is an aspect of the game to some aspect - some people use it to get a mental edge against their opposition (ala CombatEX)...
While the SC2 community upholds manner and all that good stuff - those that BM don't deserve your time.. just ignore them and build a bridge. Bringing it up in forums is just a form of finger pointing from one persons perspective... if I get 6pooled or cannon rushed and the guy doing it says they are too good for me.. and I should learn to play.. i'll bm them for awhile.. just to let them know that what they are doing does not infact take much skill. But if they then go posting saying "OHHH ChadMann told me I need to learn to play and he was really BM - what a ***" then the whole story isn't understood. And the poster themselves is being BM overall in the community by trying to denigrate my name in the community... Which takes the BM (imo) further than just 1 to 1..
HOWEVER, if someone really is a (see-you-next-tuesday) and starts racial BM or physical threats over and above what is expected when someone just rages cause they lost a stupid game... then yeah.. perhaps there is reason to say - Hey, this guy is a bit of a douche bag. (ie Zanooku/Ziek).
Anyway, this thread really doesn't solve anything and should just go quietly into oblivion.

I don't want to start any bad blood between clans but there is really nothing wrong with this, it happens all the time, even in GSL. You can't request a player to stop building CCs where they want when they want, who knows, the cockiness could one day bring you back into a game and that player will be shamed to oblivion. If he was BMing like in chat I can understand and would take action, but not this.
You've complained to several people, and now on SC2SEA about this, you just need to get over it, it's a part of the game.
Edit: Particularly to deL and Fadey, yeah I used to BM heaps but I don't anymore, I regret that I was like that and I have learnt from it and stopped. I have nothing against TA anymore and actually consider TA to be the top clan on SEA at the moment with their new members. Also, I apologize to anyone else I may have BM'd in the past.

fyi, i have only requested for the player to stop in your chat channel once. Do not assume that i rant off. and i will apologize if i seem childish, i will stop commenting .

LOL this is a perfect example of what I mean.. A joke between Miles and I during a few practice games (note - I'm playing zerg... badly.. ) could be seen as me being BM.. when I wasn't....
Someone giving you the finger on the internet is hardly threadworthy. Grow up. TA is just as mannered as any other clan, there's just more of us :P
I've reprimanded a couple of our players for racism/excessive raging in the past but never for anything this mild.
I just hope twinkle toes knows this was streamed and salvation knew people saw it anyway, also it's harmless. Love the attempts to counter-'rep train' when we just laughed and said let's type 5 characters in response to an unneeded post.

Just had some people tell me of it so I assumed you messaged several people, they all probably just saw it in the same channel, sorry.
Posting a topic about someone being ''BM'' to you on ladder especially with no Screenshots is a a lil over the top. He gave you a ''..!..'' thats all, theres no need to post such things unless it involves racism or personal attacks.
I do feel that, the rep train thing is a little annoying hence the Positive reps!

What the hell? Look at the hypocritical counter rep-train with more positive reps. Why does he deserve positive rep for such a bad post? To counter act a few TA members mocking the post with an inside joke?

Id say the positive rep train started as an counteract to the Negative ones, at least it was for me. Or maybe they have an inside joke themselves too =P. Nothing personal towards you guys, you know i love you!
