Yea it was kinda funny, but I don't really like laughing at other people at their expense, and that was all it was. | ||

Howevers the entire thread did turn into an interesting read. I think giving the NASL feedback that you would like a more informed hot smoking chick explaining and asking about SC2 is a reasonable request. Other than that, she just took a job, I mean, sure you can bitch about her, but really, blame NASL for their choice rather than her for her lack of knowledge. Otherwise, everything is good, oh and NeverGG you're smokin ^_< | ||

Being judged purely upon your physical appearance as a girl isn't exactly fun. However, (speaking from an experience here on TL and irl) getting told you're part of the ugly bitch squad is definitely worse than being told you're smoking hot. Guys who'd dismiss a girl (as a friend) purely because she isn't 'smoking hot' aren't worth knowing anyway ^_^. This is the third(?) time I've seen you complain about how people see you never. Based on some far away glimpses of memories in a birthday and kitten blog, I didn't think you were that bad looking. I should say "I didn't think you were bad looking" and remove the that... but it's just the way I talk. +1 to the never looks good. | ||

See I wrote that second sentence because I didnt want to be misunderstood. I'm not sure wether you didn't read correctly or you misunderstand on purpose so you have a reason to rage. I dislike all the personal attacking, I argued against that when people where flaming other casters, yes even male OMG. Only thing different now is me writing a blog, which has nothing to do with Lindsey but rather with me searching for something to keep me awake. I'm not interested in impressing Lindsey whatsoever, you're wrong again. Yeah, I guess you're right. I mean, you did write a blog defending Gretorp when everybody was losing their shit over him right during the NASL right? Oh wait, you didn't. At least you wrote a blog defending DOA and Moletrap when everybody was illogically taking a shit over him right? Oh wait, you didn't either. The hate that Gretorp, DOA, and Moletrap got were pretty goddamn bad. Lindsey got some "it's so bad it's good" and some "at least she is hot" (which is actually bad, but probably better than outright hate), where were your blog posts? You dedicated a WHOLE blog post to defending Lindsey, when you self admittedly DIDN'T EVEN WATCH THE INTERVIEWS. I'm not arguing whether or not Lindsey is good or bad, or whether or not illogically bashing someone is good or bad. For the record, I think Lindsey didn't do too great of a job, but she can honestly improve and I'm totally down with that. I really hope she stays on for NASL and beyond, because honestly when we start getting people like Lindsey, you know e-sports is going far. What I am here for, is to call you out at your pitiful attempt to white knight. Seriously? Just because you say you aren't white knighting doesn't mean you aren't. You dedicate a WHOLE blog post, a WHOLE blog post with thought out responses defending Lindsey when the only thing you know about her is that she is female and attractive. And not only that, you pitifully paint it as an attempt to speak out against negativity against everyone when clearly your only objective is to defend Lindsey. You are white knighting to a T and the fact that you can't admit that makes this whole thing even funnier. What the hell did you expect? You do something so pitiful and people aren't gonna laugh? I'll admit, the internet is pretty wacky with all this anonymity and stuff, but come on man. Did you honestly think you would white knight so blatantly and pitifully and get away with it without multiple people busting you out? Either stop white knighting or stop complaining about everybody calling you out for white knighting. And don't go into the "you didn't read my post" argument just because some of the things I said hit too close to home. I read your post. You are white knighting. | ||

I mean, it would have been nice if they had given someone a shot who is interesting or funny or is interested in Starcraft, but whatever. 2) The interviews were funny. No, they were hilarious. They had me crying with laughter sitting in front of my computer. Responding to every answer with "excellent!", randomly asking "do you play chess?, i play chess...", "how long having you been doing starcraft?"....and many many more. 3) I agree with the above post. Women don't need protecting. The fact that a pretty face brings out the caveman instinct is genetically ingrained in every man, but that doesn't mean that you should respond to it. 4) She is a model. Do you think that she looks that good by accident? No, you have to work at it to look that good. Recognising that we are sexual beings, but still treating women with respect is part of being a well rounded person. The fact that her looks seems to be her main defining asset isn't our fault. You are making a mountain out of a molehill. She doesn't give a f*ck about Starcraft and we won't see her at any more events in the future, so get over it. Apparently she has a 4.0 GPA in a B.Sc. | ||

You want Starcraft to go mainstream, you don't want Nerds to be laughed at, you want "the community" to grow? This line of argument is so blindingly stupid and I'm sick of people using it every chance they get. It's consquentialist crap. You have no idea if SC2 is going mainstream nor do you have any idea if the behavior in question is preventing it from going mainstream, so stop acting like it does.You know what would happen if she showed up at a Philadelphia Eagles game with the same zero-knowledge of football? And then asked if anyone of them played soccer, because they're both sports! The exact same thing. | ||

Just got home from my first ever StarCraft experience. I know nothing about the game yet (obviously), but I'm having fun learning. My agent told me they'd train me before I started interviewing, but ...well, I suppose jumping right into on-camera interviewing is one way to learn Sorry for all the mistakes, but thanks for watching..http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lindsey-Sporrer/120453541342029 I became a fan =) | ||

Reducing girls to "Wow she is smoking hot" is as bad as calling them ugly bitches. Compliments on the looks by a random stranger on the internet? Nah.. I do judge her based on what she said and not her gender. I'm pretty sure most everybody else did as well. If you read the LR, people made fun of overusing the word "excellent," thinking that "g" is a starcraft race, randomly asking "do you play chess?" and so on. Also, I don't blame her. It's the fault of the organizers for not hiring somebody qualified. | ||

Of course people are going to comment on her looks because she provides no other content to comment on. Obviously NASL is at fault for picking her, but to expect people to ignore her glaring weaknesses is silly.

The exact same thing. Pretty much my thoughts. She was obviously coached as she was repeating the same drivel time and time again, meh. Whatever. | ||
