I ask you TL: Why aren't there more Team Fanclubs?

Besides Incredible MIracle and Slayers?

... For the mainstream Korean Teams. For goodness sakes, there are Millenium and Mouz fanclubs, yet there isn't a fanclub for Korean teams that have been around the longest like OGS and PRIME.

For goodness sakes Team Liquid, there isn't even a Team Liquid fanclub! For your own website's team! Now, with all the Team Leagues going on right now (GSTL, KSTL, NASTL, IPL-TAC, etc), there are a lot of matches and topics to sift through just to talk about how much you like a particular team. I for one would love to hop onto the Prime Fanclub and congratulate them on how well they've really turned things around. To having a 0% winning record in GSTL to how they're really doing well in almost all Team Leagues currently. Or just talk about player trades onto different teams.

Now I would do it for a lot of teams, but
1. I am not familiar with places to get pictures of players.
2. Not familiar with making funny photoshop pics of players, or where to find them.
3. Not 100% comfortable with the website's layout on posting pictures and things.
4. Not anywhere near as clever as some of the people on this site in writing things.
5. Not enough time for me to learn how to do 1-4.

Now these problems aren't a big problem to a lot of other people though like it is for me. For goodness sakes, people are willing to take the time and effort to go around making ALL OF THESE elaborate, funny topics about Teams like the ones in this one:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=306400

And of course the Mouz and EG ones:
Why Mouz Will Win the NASTL/IPL TAC/and lots of ot
Why EG will win the IPL TAC/NASTL

So I ask of you TL Community who are willing and able to put in the time, make more Team Fanclub topics! Fans of Teams without a fanclub topic to go into and talk about how much they like that team are in desperate need of your assistance!

PS: Please start with Team Liquid, OGS, and Prime fanclub topics if possible!

I think it would be awesome to manage the Team Liquid fan club, I just don't think I would do a good enough job with the thread or I would make it.

Players are more popular than acutal teams. Partly the reason people spport certain teams is becuase there is a player they like is on that team. Although the popularity of MKP would beg the question of why there is not a Prime fanclub...

If you notice, all the liquid players have a fanclub and some of the site's moderators and admins have fanclubs. But the owner of Teamliquid does not have one.

i am a huge fan of team liquid but saying this is pretty unfair... there's LOTS of people here posting who are mainly fans off teams other than teamliquid, and players not on teamliquid. Teamliquid community is not and shouldn't be team liquid progaming team!

More officially though, it's the TeamLiquidPro section of the site.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

See reasons 1-5 in the post. Also read the whole post.

I think there are way too many. I understand the fact that the old school pro's used to use daum cafe for such things and I tend to avoid them, but I think it's gotten to the point of ridiculousness especially for some.

I was even contemplating making my own fan club for Elly the elephant as a parody.

I just avoid the section all together because I don't want to sound biased.

If you think someone really deserves one. Like, Divinek said. Start one. Don't give me excuses that you cannot find pictures. Search engines suffice and not only that; it's so fucking easy to contact players and other personalities these days. Tell them what you want to do and I'm sure they'll email you a few pictures.

Learn how to use the website; upload pictures using imageshack etc.

You want help from a writer. Contact them and I'm sure they'll help you out.

Don't be lazy.

This is something very trivial. If it bothers you so much then fix it or at least take some responsibility to do so.

I have. I have made this topic to create awareness about this growing problem of Team Fanclub Deficiency Disorder, or TFDD. I have done my part with the resources I have available, in the hopes that people with resources that I don't have available can help solve this devastating catastrophe.

It's clear you don't understand the gravity of the situation if you consider this to be "trivial". But I guess I can't expect someone like you to understand TFDD.

All you've done is bitched and moaned. Is it awareness? Sure, but it doesn't change my opinion of you when I say: you're lazy.

If you don't want to take initiative yourself when you aren't happy with the present fan club situation or lack thereof it isn't on anyone else but yourself.

It's your problem. Deal with it.
