I fully agree with you since the initial balance of the games were exceptionally screwed up every time (although I wouldn't go as far as to slam David Kim directly). It doesn't help when stuck-up punks in high-level leagues tell lower players "balance doesn't apply to you because you suck" I myself used to be an experienced Protoss veteran of the original StarCraft multiplayer, and I witnessed the same crap happen there too, which is why I never got SC2. I think some of the more mature, respectful SC2 players exist in the Mapster community, which doesn't welcome such nonsense.

I believe the balance team holds some responsibility. I know it's a very difficult task to go about doing but at the very least acknowledge the consensus of the community with regard to the game. My brother had a field day when LotV was first released since he plays Zerg, and we all know how balanced Zerg was in LotV's first release, even after months of beta testing.

I'm more saddened to not have seen any progress by maity and zelda on starmon

So am I, to be honest. Zelda's been busy almost 24/7 (went off to college, I believe?), and while I still speak to Maity on a daily basis, his motivation seems sort of gone. That, plus the fact that the gazillion updates since we last worked on the map littered it with bugs - especially in Zelda's area.

We've still got the files, though. Every few months or so this comes up again and I pester Maity again to at least make a move to releasing that alpha so people can play with it. It'd be an amazing portfolio thing.

Or—and I'm just putting this out there—you could behave like an adult and find a way to insult things without using ableist slurs? I personally think this is a great idea, but to each their (depressingly stereotypically awful gamerdude) own.

Behaving like an adult does not equal adhering to group think. Go have your witch hunt somewhere else, should be far more interested in the intent behind the words than what the actual words used are.

Ur degrading yourselves to the status of QQ noobs in cod

I'm just confused with what QQ noobs means? Internet slang is the worst sometimes haha.

On the topic though, I agree that there may be a language barrier. But I don't think there is anything wrong with asking someone to not use the term retard. Whether they listen to you is up to them though. If they were your kid then that would be a different story. Unless there are forum rules in place it's hard to enforce things like these.
