Activity:

VGT gave point bonuses for reaching 50/100/150/200 game milestones, 100-200 pts. This helped promote activity.

VGT had a point decay system, this meant players couldn't get 1000 points ahead of 2nd place and then quit the season.

Cash incentives for players that have no hope of winning the season. 10$ to player with most games, 10$ to player with two accounts top 20 of 1v1 and 2v2. Things like this help the lower tiers to mass games in both leagues.

stop being fucking dicks to anyone. we all grow up now... it changes nothing to insult some1 else.

Think this one plays the biggest role when it comes to killing activity. Nobody likes to be harassed about how badly you blow at a game for the duration of the game. It's already bad enough the person ends up loosing because of it. I doubt someone is saying " i was amazing in that game " and feeling confident after they've lost.

I remember teaching every and anyone i could when I was active as fawk on this game, shit.. i still do it now lol on my stream and even when im not streaming. Not sure when all of the sudden people became cocky and bm as fk. Now every other game is a bm fest and people complaining about how they got a shitty ally. I'm pretty sure a ton of players can vouch for me if those players still played some people just don't like to admit it so I wouldn't be surprised if nobody speaks out assuming those people i helped still play. Shit i helped jake a ton when he was just a rugrat back in g)a, I helped infa)solid, xtre-rak, nhuman, xnb-homeless, qaa(JK  ), insane, lars from g)a i think he went by g)a-z4r3x, plenty of people in g)a, plenty of people from god, ed)ccc[bnd] or some shit plenty of people from my old apm clan and thats just from the top of my head. I mean the list is endless. Maybe they weren't the best or whatever but the point is i often tried to contribute to friends/randoms.

It's a huge bummer seeing people in pubs totally bash the shet out of noobs with " my partners suck ", " this guy is garbage ", " should have gave me a computer instead " lol. It can be funny if its witty but most of the shet we've heard a billion times over and over. We get it, you got a noob, we all get them, move on and play the game and if it doesn't take up to much of your time attempt advising the person for their next game.

People are trying to learn the game and are interested but the "pro's" don't give them the opportunity. I get asked to help/teach in my streams pretty often so trust me people are really wanting to play and learn. There isn't going to be another wave of people coming to starcraft, this is it and if you want to create activity for your favorite game + league then i suggest people start changing their attitude/opinion about noobs cause they are the ones who will keep your league alive. Nobody else is going to come and promote your league, it's you or nobody and I doubt they want to come to a channel where the players are constantly bashing their skill level.

That's just not fun even in a game. Don't want to sound like a mr.knowitall but that is how i feel starcraft has been since ive came back and the reality of the situation. I know some might argue " well its the internet, stop being a p*ss* ". Yeah, true, but just because it's the internet doesn't mean you gotta be a d-bag. Just saying... And if this isn't convincing enough then again, you should really think about your fav league/game dying out again cause that is a very viable scenario.

And you think that the original (SC) statistics are going to be different, they will be practically the same or worse since zerg has fewer resources on how to win in original.

The imbalance has to see more by the map, the positions in the middle should have the resources more center and the smaller entries.

The 2 games BW and SC are great..

Also beat the piss out of a few of my ex. Sup?? You're probably that fucking Virginia loser who put pussy up on a pedi stool. Never get any. You fucking loser . Owned ez rvr xtre nub. Read my posts and dl my reps more dumb, nobody nub.

Stick to ping pong dork..

It's like when the biggest pussy/nerd in the school (over in the corner eating by himself with a little note that mommy left in his lunchbox to make him feel loved and important) calls out the BADDEST, biggest, TOUGHEST dog in the yard. Wtf do you think is gonna happen?? You're gonna get your ass kicked clearly... Now run back over to your corner by yourself with your little virgin/nerd head down and finish your lunch then head to your "ping pong" with all the other little dorks in suspenders.
