And you're all siding with him? What a drama queen. I don't care what amount of work you've done - I did appreciate you before this, but now I just look back on it all like a joke. Don't worry. We'll replace you, and it'll be better without you. I don't say this because of the quality of your work, you threw all of that away when you decided you'd wake up this morning with a shitty attitude. | ||

If you decide to leave for good, it's your choice. But know that people here love and support you. The haters are a vocal minority. Don't let it get to you. | ||

99% of the hatred belongs to 1% of the community. I am the 99%, occupy Milkis' heart! <3 | ||

TL has definitely lost much of its etiquette and class over the last year. There's not a lot left that makes it unique any more. Saying that the "internet is evil, don't listen to it" or whatever is easy and you may think saying that makes you look mature or smart in a cynical way, but it really doesn't. Making even a small place on the internet NOT blend into that stereotype is extremely difficult, and not many people care enough to contribute to that anymore. Milkis is one of those guys who made TL and symbolized the TL community for me, and also one of the rare people whose views on a lot of [s]e-sports[/e] Starcraft related things I can agree with. But I'm not going to ask him to reconsider his decision if he indeed made it, as I don't think TL really deserves guys like him anymore. Just get a paid translator who will be a nobody with no opinions and will take any bashing in the world for a paycheck. That's the trend in ESPORTS nowadays anyway, isn't it? Professionalism! Yay. It's all about the context of the community you place it in tho. Milkis could have posted that exact same thread on the TL BW forum, and it wouldn't have gotten nearly the kind of reaction that it did over on reddit. Yet he chose to make his point on the SC2 reddit, which is not as strictly moderated as TL and attracts a crowd of which only a small percentage have an interest in BW in the first place (much like TL SC2). It's kind of like coming over to my house and explaining in detail why every piece of furniture I have is terrible and how everything you own is superior. There's a reason people don't react friendly to behaviour like that. Nothing is forbidding you from doing it, but at least be reasonable in the expectations you have. | ||

However, you are free to make your own decision and I'm sure the community will respect you either way. Good luck | ||

Whatever shall we do. <__________________> This is exactly the kind of stuff I'm talking about, thanks for the direct demonstration. | ||

I really don't want to come across as rude, but my thoughts yesterday were "I wonder if he will overreact to the situation and quit." And now that he did all I am thinking is that if he is going to go... then just go. I don't actually think he will leave for good though. Feel free to prove me wrong if you think it is worth it. | ||

Milkis thinks something > something else and told something else to fuck themselves. Isn't that the standard human behaviour? Who cares, it's just eSports drama. I didn't ask for this. | ||

He gets all emotional again, and quits? If he can't handle that kind of stuff it may be in his best interest for him to leave, as much as I have enjoyed the content he has put out. He wouldn't return without adjusting his attitude at all. Read my first post in this thread. I already put in my effort to help him change his approach. | ||

I don't think Milkis is gone for good, I think he's just a tad angry and blowing off some steam for a couple of days. I can't imagine anyone leaving what they love because a couple of people told him he's wrong and called him 'mean' names | ||

Anyway, if it really is the end, I want to thank you for every translation you ever provided the bw community, I'm not sure you know how much it meant to us. Never say never though =) | ||

Look at sports in america, the greatest athletes in the world get criticized every single day for stupid nonsense.... Does it make them any less of an athlete or a person? No. Do they just flip tables, and quit? Absolutely not. If you wanna survive in a world where your business is publicized and criticized then you must be strong and endure the world full of trolls. | ||
