Ok seriously, is the lack of a native english translator that huge in korea?

you'd think a professional site such as this would get an actual translator to help them make a presentable site 0_o.

I'd like to know something more interesting about the players than just their birthdate, blood-type and height/weight.

In Asia that is all you need to know about a particular robotic model to assess its make, quality, durability, and characteristics.

Shouldn't we call ForGG Never_V and Luxury Practice? They are always using these names during their games and these are the names on the website.

Many progamers have multiple aliases; Never_V_ and Practice (among others like Berserker for Iris) were used in GOM, for example. The other names are historically more common and widely known so it makes sense to use them over others.

Their real name is largely optional and is probably an endearing name to the product so that it does not remain as simply a barcode and production lot number.

I don't know about the more common part, but the names just stick and nobody ever wants to change because that's just confusing, even if the player goes by the new name 100% of the time now (and has for a while)

eg. Kal ->Goojila, Casy -> AdamaS, Killer -> Baxter
