LOL what a stupid move from fomos, do they really think that now they're gonna get millions of views on their translated articles from the 'millions' of bw fans all around the world?

What I meant to say is that majority of foreigners surfing their site for BW content.

He was Estro coach and co-commentator along with Tasteless for gomtv tournaments in Starcraft 1.

I also don`t know what he did and why people are angry at him.

Mainly people blame him for giving us the progamer IdrA. Actually, he briefly joined GOMTV in casting their BW games in English with Tasteless. Those English games probably pulled a lot of foreign fans into BW, though the numbers wouldn't compare with the SC2 explosion. People have generally found his projects agreeable, like casting and after he left casting, a PC cafe he opened. Not so with his handling of this fomos situation.

fomos can suck cock, who the fuck would go to their site for the shitty english 'content', especially after pulling this on TL.

they're not even losing any money on it, they just don't want anybody else to make a buck, like TL is making millions on fomos articles for the handful of people who actually still follow bw in the west.

what fuckheads, god i'm so angry.

Btw for everyone who does not know, this is a link to all the fomos news in english.
http://www.fomos.kr/board/board_article/eng_all.php
And I have to say, most of them are very short .. more like a celebrity info page.

Well although I will miss the fast BW interviews after PL - if anyone ever thinks that I will get my MSL/PL news/coverage somewhere else than TLh, he has absolutely gone CrAzZyY.

Oh and another round of big thanks to the translators of course, you are awesome as always and I hope this is going to end well. And the fomos sites take literally 30 seconds to load .. man, what a bummer.

Fair use, a limitation and exception to the exclusive right granted by copyright law to the author of a creative work, is a doctrine in United States copyright law that allows limited use of copyrighted material without acquiring permission from the rights holders. Examples of fair use include commentary, criticism, news reporting, research, teaching, library archiving and scholarship. It provides for the legal, non-licensed citation or incorporation of copyrighted material in another author's work under a four-factor balancing test. The term fair use originated in the United States. A similar principle, fair dealing, exists in some other common law jurisdictions. Civil law jurisdictions have other limitations and exceptions to copyright


I'd say that it would fall under commentary and news... Maybe not the photos, but one of the main reasons people can post clips of movies, etc on YouTube (if there Is anything similar in Korea?). I know many circumvent copyright laws like that in America... Unfortunately the only lawyers I know are American ones.

Who called SDM dumb? I don't recall anyone saying that. Sounds like you are taking a jab at someone you don't even know.

All I said is the TL translators do a better job with the translations and in a more timely manner than say Fomos. Either way, there is no partnership between the two which stinks. Hopefully the Brood War section doesn't become more bare.

Fomos website is so impossible to navigate. Who do I email at Fomos to tell them how dissatisfied I am with their decision?

Who do they think they are; Apple? BW isn't exactly gaining popularity, so why would they do this when there is no potential money gain/loss involved? They've played too much with the Boomers in New Vegas.

It saddens me fomos has taken this stance, but I don't criticize them for doing so. It is their responsibility as a business to increase profits besides protecting their intellectual property. Translating a full interview, in which fomos used their resources to make, does not benefit them in any way since people will have no reason to access their website because the full content is already available elsewhere. Their alliance with a Chinese company to provide English content can be understood as the primary reason TL was contacted until now to cease the practice.

But from what I understand TL can still make post or news about new articles or interviews from FOMOS or the new Chinese company, as any news website you can take the primary idea and link the source, this is not a copyright infringement since you are stating the source.

In case you don't realise, every reference to Fomos making a dumb decision or being 'fucking dumb' in this thread (i.e. every three or four posts) is in effect an attack on SDM.
