In another thread someone suggested we pool our money together and form a TL team. Think about how awesome a team of Jaedong, go.go and Nony would be.

I agree that Jaedong should be able to do what Jaedong wants to do in regards to eSports. However, this is not about Jaedong but the rules KeSPA has enforced that put him in his position

@Slow Motion...I'm in lol

I think the players desperately need to form a Player's Association. Then again, I dont know what Korea's policies are regarding unions.

A PA would be great, but incredibly hard to fund//organize. I don't think it'll ever happen. On one hand, LJD is my favorite player and I'd hate to see him leave, but on the other retiring might be a good choice for him to progress in life down other avenues, so to speak. I'll be awfully upset if he's forced into retirement by KeSPA, but I'm also confident that he will become very successful in life. He's got too much dedication not to.

If JD quits, then I will be disappointed. He's a really good player and to quit after you win an OSL, let alone the golden mouse, is highly disappointing.

It is such a shame to see so much potential go to waste in LJD. He hasn't reached his peak yet I really was looking forward to see what he would bring to progaming in the future.

But the fact is LJD is underpayed and not getting the better end of the deal from OZ. The best Zerg and arguably the best player in the world should not getting underpayed or forced into this position.

KeSPA, have some respect for your players. They are what make you.

Can you imagine if they tried this stuff with any other sport? They'd hang Kespa in the streets if they were in charge of something say like soccer and tried doing this.

i think he might as well retire now and persue a technical skill and better for working field later.

i mean hes progamer career is good and shine but it is about time to transition as he stepping into the 20s and stuff. really best to retire when your on the top

Personally I would like to see Jaedong with the option to stay in the world of eSports, as a progamer making a deserved salary, and later as a coach. From what I have read he has seemed consistently adamant and passionate about staying in the progaming scene and it would be a shame to see him lose his dream. But, at the end of the day, whatever he does is cool with me. What isn't is the situation KeSPA has forced on him.

GTFO of our capitalist forum you communist bastard! That's just dumb. It's best to go out after you're washed up so you had the opportunity to cash in on the when you were at your best. I'd rather be rich and washed up than go out on top and not have gotten the highest possible return for my efforts anyday of the week.

EDIT: lol i called someone from Taiwan a communist.

You actually have to uh get paid a decent amount to end up rich... something that Jaedong wasn't really receiving.

Making $58,000 USD a year is not considered rich, certainly not in the US.

It would be a terrible shame for e-sports if he retires before he reaches the height of his career, although it would be kinda awesome to stop while he's ahead.
