umm... actually its kespa who screwed over blizzard all these years making money off their IP. im not a fan of stuff like IP rights coz nobody's losing anything just from a copy. makin' a copy is different from actually stealing something. there's no guarantee that anyone would by the product and i also think that many great technologies arent used to their full potential coz some capitalist fucks claim "copyright" (look at that term - you need to ask for making a copy, thats bs ffs!).

im not a huge fan of capitalism of any kind.

but right now we do have capitalism. kespa didnt even ask blizzard all these years. they used something somebody else made to grow an economy on it without the creator getting anything.

not buying the game over bnet 2.0 flaws or other imperfections is understandable. not buying it coz you dont support blizzards policy is also understandable. but that you dont support this particular policy is bullshit.
kespa stole someone elses product to further their own benefit. and you are giving blizzard a hard time, when they are the ones that MADE the fucking game. how can kespa have more rights to the product than the people that made it? its completely beyond me. even if the sky comes crashin down coz of this you cant blame blizzard for it, blame kespa for not giving a fuck.
i dont understand all these people. >_<

If it weren't for kespa and all the dedicated people that have put in tears, sweat and blood over the years, starcraft would have been long forgotten by now. Thanks to E-sports blizzard has 4.5 million copies sold in korea alone, and here they are bitching and moaning. It's the reality of corporations but it's also a prohibiting factor for the growth of E-sports.

thats no fact. wgt, pgt, iccup - korea made none of this. tl, gg.net - kespa didnt make these. bwcl isnt their work either. i dont care about starcraft cause kespa build their little turf in their little country. they made a shiny turf, but its a small country, huge language barrier, doesnt reach people anywhere else except via what dedicated members of our OWN community bring to us. ive not been playing bw coz korea has two channels broadcasting the game. i played it because its a great game. our community doesnt depend in the slightest on korea. theres some inspiration coming from there but thats not kespas work, that comes from our guys and from the players themselves.
yo cant hype korean esports as the best there'll ever be. it isnt the top of the world.

who cares if blizzard is the one who made the game. so are they also going to sew everyone else who hosts amateur tournaments who need profit for venue fee? its obvious blizzard is just a fucking greedy ass company, just look at world of warcraft. SPECIFICALLY made to consume your money. i was always a BW conservative, and why move on to a game less skillfully demanding as its original? another reason for me to boycott sc2
