Also why on earth would you hire a Chinese team to do English translations? Hell, they could have hired some of our nice translators here to do it. | ||

Really not sure about the motives behind this, but I guess it's not that bad as long as we are still on good terms with DES. | ||

Anyway, DES usually has the better interviews anyway, so unless we get in trouble with them it doesn't matter. | ||

when they first announced fomos in english i was quite happy, i thought the whole thing would be translated and there will be fomos portal in english, then i realized it was just that "global" link with a few caps and interviews (in the begining copy-pasted from TL), well i dont think they will get that many foreign viewers with only that tbh nor that TL is threat to their site traffic but ok lets see how this pays off for them | ||

Btw what are the chances that DES might pull the same move? Because then we'd really be screwed right? This is just terrible... | ||

Posted by LML on March 28th, 2011 filed in StarCraft News Later on he confirmed the message saying that fomos.co.kr will start an english site and asked everyone interested in e-sports and daring to fight evil ninjas to volunteer. Simply E-mail him at broods@gmail.com and you might have the chance to help out creating something great. 1) Volunteers translate content for the community at TL 2) Ask for community volunteers to help yourself commercially This sounds familiar?

No, they would have sent a cease&desist letter to Google by now not to translate anything hosted on fomos.kr. | ||

Does this seriously mean we'll never see another translated interview on this site again? Or even a lousy pic? | ||

Seriously though... It's their stuff, I guess they can do whatever they want with it, though it is kind of a dick move. Oh well, time to learn korean. | ||

edit: Took a gander at their global section. The quality dropped significantly in comparison to teamliquid's volunteered translations. If someone can enlighten me on who this "sulkey" they keep referring to in zero's msl ro4 interview, that would be great. | ||
