I'm pretty good with all of the races, but I prefer using the Protoss ... and I like playing on non-rushing maps too. Rushing is just ... cheap.

Only if you can't handle being rushed. That's a tactic, it's not cheap. If you're as good as you think you are, you'd be able to handle a rush. Different tactics for different people.

Such as the Zerg. They are perfect for rushing. You like using Protoss, which aren't good for rushing because of high cost and not very effective in the beginning.

I used to play, but never really got into multiplayer. Skirmish and the story-line play were good though. I always made alot of scripted maps with alot of dialogue.

Eh well, hope you find someone to play with.

I usually played as the Zerg. I like getting bases all over the map.

*EDIT*
Forgot to add my favorite race..nurnurnur

SC.... it's been awhile since i last played it, but i've been thinking about playing more now that i got cable ^_^
I use terrans, just cause zergs tend to be weak against terrans, and protoss are really expensive. i usually get beaten down by rushers, and, actually, i'm the only one that really doesn't give a rat's ass if i get rushed, cause it's only a game anyway.

I use toss and I can counter any rush. Well I used to... I don't play much anymore.

Hey doesn't anyone remember when I had the sig that showed 3 terran avatars and it was Terrans Rule or somethin??

I SC some times, but not often. Do you people have the Broodwar expansion? my favorite race would have to be...either protoss, terran or zerg. But it's one of those 3 for sure. We should all play a big FFA game or something some time, or teams. It'd be neatO!

No shit, rushing is a tactic. It's a very cheap tactic, especially since those Zerglings can be produced before you can even get some Barracks or a Gateway built.

I tend to get off to a somewhat weak start in a game, but later in more drawn-out games, I can kick enough ass to take on about 3-4 computers at once (I haven't tried against that many human opponents yet http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif).

Why "Zero Clutter" when we can go 4v4 on one of MY maps entitled: "COOL MAP" Its a really big map that has tons of building space and just the right amount of resouces.

I am really good with Protoss, If I build fast enough, I end up countering rushes, but it doesnt happen all the time...

Youre a comp killer too? http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

I usually like facing comps its fun to murder the comps with your friends. The maximum I can take on is 4.

But the only thing I hate about comp battles are BSers (Backstabbers, MSers (Map Stealers), and Freeloaders (Players out for a free ride and do nothing)

I also firmly dislike Backstabbers, especially when it's 2 people teamed up, and when you're the only one left they start talking to each other like you cant hear.

Example, hey you ready to go kill that guy yet? Nah, let's give him about 5 more minutes.

then 30 seconds later you're dead. I HATE THAT! But I'm sure none of you would EVER think of doing anything like that.

Nah...Im no BSer. Im like the Chivalrous Knight of Starcraft/Brood War.

I remember in one battle there was this guy who kept saying: "Im not attacking, ok?" 5 mins later, he attacks my base with a small band of Zerglings, Hydralisks and a few Defliers, and after his little attack failed he said: "Sorry", tyring to act like it was an accident or something. I then told my other ally that he just BSed me and then he got slaughtered by both of us.
