Wow, just wow. I kind like you before read this. you're a fine translator, and good community guy. but seriously, the whole post is just QQing, and more QQing. take the criticism as it's, opinions!!!

and please stop begging him to come back , if he can't take the criticism, specially from the internet, this isn't for him, let him go, we can't have shit like this every time somebody is criticizing him.

So they share different views. That's perfectly acceptable.

Milkis's view is that the Korean BW scene is the only one to come close to being comparable to real sports, in that it was televised, the entire nation knew about it, it had insane penetration that none of these other events had.

They were popular, they are great games, I like them, but I understand his view entirely.

Everyone just goes fucking insane on you if you say anything bad about SC2 or ESPORTS on reddit. They are the worst parts of the SC2 forum here with a button to hide any dissenting opinions simply for being contrary to what the majority think.

That's not Slasher


Okay, my bad, I agree with this guy anyway! But I think the other guy is indeed Wheat so that doesn't change my point, no need to bash reddit like that.

This is extremely selfish of you milkis, there were so many people i'd say 95% + of the sc2 community, that adored your work, not to mention you as a person, why listen to the > 5% that called you a "retard" or criticized your translating, why not listen to the cheering crowds at MLG and the countless extremely positive comments on your normal posts. Whether you leave or not, i have lost a lot respect for you.

Oh well, good luck in whatever career you go down.

There has been a new flood of assholes this year with the release of SC2. People seem to think it's cool to judge and criticize but we all know nobody would of been able to step up and do what you did at MLG and take all the hate that came a long with it. People are dicks on Reddit, I'm on your side Milkis.

just don't go on reddit anymore. Everyone knows its just a cesspool of trolls anyway. Stick to tl and the mods will never let you down (or give you up)

unlike those shitty reddit trolls that are just going to run around and forget you

I'm sorry if this comes off as super rude but damn dude grow some skin. Just because a few people are throwing some insults at you you just don't go and fucking ditch all your fans. Haters are everywhere even on my rinky dink youtube channel with only 3000 subs. Get over it and keep doing what you love doing for esports and ignore the haters.

The difference between Milkis and the others who have been criticised is that for a long time, he did everything for free, through his own passion and hardship. Without Broodwar, he wouldn't have become a translator at all. Others like iNcontrol and Total Biscuit are getting paid for what they do and probably earn a decent amount of cash and money can act as something to keep you motivated. There is a large difference between doing something voluntarily, and doing something as a job. Let's say you worked in a charity shop for 4 years, and you poured blood sweat and tears into doing the best job possible. Suddenly, a year later, everyone starts calling you terrible at your job and that you are a cunt face. How demotivating would that be? Would you want to continue working for free in that environment with so many hostile people? Put yourself in his shoes.

What's even more saddening is people's content with abusive words and bashing on the internet. When people get upset from things said to them on the internet, saying 'grow a pair' is incredibly disrespectful, and essentially is your way of saying 'its ok to be abrasive and mean behind your monitor because everyone should be able to handle it.' What does that tell you about the community? People with very unhelpful comments are getting upvoted on Reddit so this isn't 'the vocal minority'. People simply think its ok to flame someone abrasively and say 'Apparently, the dude has been locked in his room for his entire life.' - Atomaka 13 points.

I generally follow the rule 'only say something if you would say it to their face' and people need to not tolerate abusive behavior. Call it trolling, call it 'teh interwebz' but it simply has to stop. A great person and translator has disappeared.


Haha, implying Milkis never got paid from mlg, right?

Seriously...You've been looking in the wrong places and in the wrong threads bro. Both Reddit and Teamliquid are pretty much filled with appreciation for all you've done. You pretty much grew an incredible own fanbase but like always, people on the internet always seem to single out the one asshole that does say something bad about you. If this really is a dream of you, you would grow a bit of a thicker skin and pull through. Especially since you've pretty much made it in this scene already. Also an opinion that is controversial like yours, is always gonna be criticized but that is because you're a rolemodel for a lot of people in this scene and they were hoping you'd share their opinion. Make them understand your vision if it's something you care about or just don't look at the response if it's something that doesn't bother you.

I have no idea what happened. Apparently I missed an entire discussion in which people were mean to Milkis.

Every thread I have ever seen about Milkis on reddit / TL was about how wonderful you are, and how much people appreciate what you've been doing.

You can leave if you want, but don't do it thinking that the community doesn't love you, because we do.

People really need to grow some thicker skin. This kind of response is absolutely absurd and shows a huge lack of capability to simply not give a fuck and love what you do.

I simply have no sympathy.

I didn't think you were a very good translator anyway, so this possibly is a good thing in the long run. But your passion and drive is something everyone in e-Sports can respect and admire, but if you lost both of these then it's time that you step out of the public eye.

I actually agree with most of what Milkis originally said, but writing a post like the op in this thread and acting emotional is not going to endear him to anyone. If he is going to be in the public eye he needs a thicker skin, if that is not possible he should probably stay out of it.
