Yes, I am not kidding, he did find himself a translator and answer my PM on facebook. He's the real one, he has his GF linked to his profile, actual pictures and all.
For anyone that may be offended by the PM that I sent him, I don't give a shit. Money is money and wintrading has been going on since way before than the scandal.
I am still waiting for type-b to answer, but I wasn't counting on luxury to answer me either. Just thought it was worth posting.

wow he actually got a translator to read that message O_O
|
just because it has happened way before does not mean it is right. cheating is wrong yo.
|
Thats pretty cool, I'm glad he's moving on
|
Wow, pretty impressive that he actually responded. I can't say I agree with what he did, but at the same time it's understandable, and it doesn't change the fact that Luxury is an absolute beast.
|
Uhm, your argument to why you think it's ok is pretty damn weak. People have been murdering other people since the dawn of man, that definitely doesn't mean we should accept it. Also, ''money is money''... you think it's ok to do anything just to get money?
Other than that, awesome!
|
I hope that I'm not being terribly offencive, but I think the best part of this is that your name is Fabio. I didn't know that that was a real name in Italy, I just thought it was like his stage name.
It's cool that a player you like responed to you.
|
Progamers answering your messages? Well that's a luxury not many people have.
|
Surprised he actually messaged back...
|
Solid fanbase management, better keep good care of those <10 fans that he has left.
|
i miss luxury, i had high hopes for him one day getting good. and now we know why he kept losing.
|
Biggest waste of talent ever >.<
|
wow thats pretty cool that he answered you. still sad about him involved in the scandal

I have a funny story about Luxury... Or maybe it was the other twin but I can't remember. Let's proceed as if it's Luxury.
I was at a big proleague match at the MBC studio with Elric. The entire studio was packed and pretty much the only open seat was beside me (as Korean people are extremely scared of foreigners). This pretty cute, young, Korean girl sat down beside me. At that time, the crowd suddenly went crazy because the Terran playing built a Nuke Silo. The girl tapped me on the shoulder and said "Excuse me, what just happened?" I explained about the nuke silo.
So me and Elric were talking to her a little bit since she was fluent in English. We eventually found out that she was dating Luxury. She said she sat down beside me because she recognized me from the times I was on OGN with my signs. Actually, at that time, I was with my Korean friend, who say the girl and said she thought she was dating one of the players because she was alone, all dressed up, and had presents with her.
Anyways, that day Luxury was scheduled to play Bisu. The girl said that Luxury was practicing hard and had a special build planned. She said "I told him if he beats Bisu, I'll do anything." Me and Elric both looked at each other and I think I said to her "You dirty girl" haha.
Anyways, game goes on, Luxury does a 2 base all-in and breaks Bisu and wins. Both me and Elric look at the girl like "UH OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH hahahahaha". I couldn't stop laughing and telling her she was in trouble.
That's it.

Other than that, awesome! And what exactly did he murder? I feel pretty alive tbh.
And to the guy telling me that Fabio sounds like a stage name, I have been alternating between reek and my real name for the last 3 years, everyone from outside Italy thinks my real name is a nickname lol.
EDIT: man do I sound angry when I type... I apologize to everyone, I just got home from working all afternoon and evening on a saturday, like I did yesterday and like I'm going to do tomorrow-.-

I think i actually saw you on some other progamer's profiles. thats pretty cool haha

I imagined he gathered all of CJ around since I basically asked him how he was and wished him goodluck and it took him like an hour to answer in english "hi" and "thank you" or something like that.
And Movie never answers-.-
Oh and from what google translate tells me luxury is working at a restaurant or something. Basically what they sell "tastes like chicken" from a comment, which restricts the field to about 20'000 possible occupations.

I'm actually surprised that Luxury responded, it's nice to hear more about the players that were involved. I also wish him the best because he really does seem regretful about his actions. I mean, he went out and took the time to find someone to actually translate that and respond to it.
And while I don't agree with the whole match fixing, I'm glad he's actually doing well and moving on with his life :D. gl to Luxury [and yarnc] in the future!
PS: I have a professor that lets us call him Fabio, he's a complete baller. It seems like all people named Fabio are awesome. ty for putting this up!

Haha, this is great. I never would have expected Lux to be that kind of person lol

"Money is money and wintrading has been going on since way before than the scandal."
Funny how this "logic" can be applied to practically any criminal act I can think of lol.
|
it was a dick move to do the match-fixing but luxury's ZvT used to be :O worthy.

nice haha. I've always wanted to talk to Leta and see what he's like. Have you ever wrote on Sea's wall?

Money is money but not like it paid off in the end to do it...

If you ask me the guy got what he deserved and is not worthy of forgiveness.
|
No more flames over Luxury 
I agree that he deserved what he got, but it's good to see that he has sort of repented and moved on. It is clear that all the cheaters/win-traders received their just desserts, but I also think they are worthy of forgiveness if they are apologetic and have truly moved on. Otherwise criminals should all stay in prison for life (because they should never be forgiven)...OP's argument was a little flame-inducing and somewhat poorly thought out though.
On the whole, it's great to see that Luxury has apologized and has decided to move on and away from his terrible conduct/incident.

I love it when pros talk to us "common" folk lol =D and looks like you may of made a friend haha grats!

Other than that, awesome! anything except destroy lives/take lives other then that GO FOR IT (destroying lives- leaving a person's life in a state of chaos with little to no chance of ever going back to the way they lived before as in physical,mental,ect the basic idea the activities included are scams,murder,selling drugs

It's pretty cool that he went through that much trouble to respond to a fan. He seems like he's an otherwise pretty good guy aside from the win-trading. Everyone makes mistakes though.

SOYLENNNT GREEEEEEEEEEEN IS- *shot*
Ahem, good for Luxury to actually recover from scandal. Expected it to haunt his life moreso than he did I guess.

Damn, Luxury is a nice guy. I just friend requested him. I remember being his biggest fan, especially during ever osl when he got to ro4 but lost to best

Luxury was one of my favorite zergs until he lost like a retard. He was so talented ;(

wow pretty nice guy, I hope his okay after the scandal.. at least I think he still gets sexy time with the girl ^_^

loooooool I saw that too. Leta loves to take pics of himself
|
At the very least, since he's still young, if he works hard and people accept he's learned that his behavior was something he won't do again because he's learned from it, he should be given a break. Let's just say that if no other pro-gamer ever does something like this again, and that they can tell those that are tempted to NOT go down that path, that they're pretty much redeemed themselves. It's the fact that they're young and don't have enough human experience that made them do it IMHO; even we ourselves, had we been confronted with something like this at their age would have agonized over the decision regardless of what we feel about it now (or in hindsight).

ROFLLLLL best behind the scenes story i've read all year long : )

Sea also replied to me on FB. Nothing special, like when I told him I was his fan from France, he said "oh cool, from which city are you from?".
Also, most progamers reply when you talk to them on bnet.
