Having Vods on youtube has drawn so many new people into the Starcraft community, and it takes alot of effort. Yes he did take the account, but he has used it for the greater good in helping the Starcraft community, which is what TL is also about. So dunno why people are still crying over the youtube account. Yeah, I agree with Highway. For whatever greivances Baezzi caused when he took the account, he has more than paid back the Starcraft community. Anyways, the issue now is how can we get another source for Baezzi. As for another poster commenting that Baezzi being replacable, I'm not too sure about that. It takes alot of time and dedication to upload the matches to YouTube that fast and to be that comprehensive. Other than the GOM matches, there hasn't been a Pro League match that I can't find on Jon747's channel - everything you want is there. | ||

I would also like to remind people that our channel used to be faster and more reliable than Baezzi well until last summer - when our own VOD sources dried up. Once we have a new source it's rather unimportant who does the actual uploading, it's all about getting the VODs fast ourselves. | ||

Last year during the Proleague Finals, VODs on nevake went up a couple of minutes after the games were played. Plus nevake has always been better quality and without the scrolls at the bottom of the screen. | ||

I know I can get korean signals with my korean sat box if I repoint my satellite, but I'm not sure what channels will be available. I wouldn't be able to upload anyways since I have comcast and a slow upload though - but just some ideas for some of you guys that are thinking of doing it? | ||

Once we have a new source it's rather unimportant who does the actual uploading, it's all about getting the VODs fast ourselves. I wanted to point that out too. A few months ago, games were normally much faster uploaded on nevake then on jon747. And it should really not be a fight about who is the better uploader. It is simply better to have two reliable sources on youtube than one. edit: wfbrood is normally a bitch to deal with, at least for me . VODs often load very slowly or sometimes not at all, plus the spoiler problem. | ||

However, reading that thread and Baezzi's views, I disagree with Baezzi and it is unfortunate he has such viewpoints. Unfortunately, the loss of Jon747's uploads also stings the community as well. What I say is that if we give any support to Jon747/Baezzi, we do it with the disclaimer that we disagree with his viewpoints posted at TL. Specifically, if any donations are made to Jon747/Baezzi, please follow up with a comment on his youtube channel that you recognize his efforts for the Starcraft community and would like to support his work, but that you disagree with his comments made on TL. With respect to the Jon747 channel in itself, I have not seen any racist videos and I don't believe Baezzi is using that channel to promote his "misguided" views. I don't think you fully understand what happened there. Baezzi used to upload videos to the Jon747 account, and we added them to TLPD. After that whole rape thread insanity Baezzi blocked Teamliquid from embedding VODs so every single VOD on TLPD stopped working. He had videos flaming Teamliquid plastered all over his channel. He also threatened to stop uploading altogether back then and several times since then. He actually did disappear for several days up to one month over last year as well without anybody knowing what's up. This whole craziness made it necessary to establish our own VOD service in the first place. It was not his crazy political views, we couldn't care less about that. So, in the interest of sanity for everyone working on this we don't want to have anything to do with Baezzi anymore. It has nothing to do with "us vs them" or being bitter about what happened. In the end we just want reliable VODs for TLPD which someone as unstable as Baezzi isn't a good choice for, simple as that. | ||

When I started watching VOD's online, the quality was so bad that you couldn't even read the ingame text (Unit name, ingame chat etc). It was all just a big mess  .But I agree with you! And while we're at it, I don't like the encoding of the sound. The audio format should be in 160 kb/s (or higher) MP3 VBR. But why stop there? I want to here the Koreans scream 'PLAGUUUUUUUUUUUUU' in 5.1. So a AC3-filter would be fitting. Yeah fuck BaeZZi, fuck oskyloveo! We need a guy who actually KNOW his shit and not some random newbie without a life right? | ||

as long as the nevake channel posts faster, who cares? Baezzi is off his rocker and his probably trying to extract money for this | ||
