grow a pair and learn to try and speak Korean. Learn to speak and write an entirely new language in under a year. No problem for GGZerg especially when he's telling others to do it at his own convenience. If iCCup users aren't going to bother switching over I see no point in creating starserver. All of the users who care to ladder are over on iCCup. I doubt koreans would want to go to a foreigner server with no english skills and the rest are just casual players on east server. Holy crap just read your previous post in the last page what the hell. First, you're discouraging people from using StarServer on the starserver thread itself and wanting them to play on Fish and then you're encouraging Birdie to learn to speak and write korean so starserver can get up and running. Seems contradictory. Non korean bw enthusiast? You were so enthusiastic telling Birdie to hurry it up with StarServer a few weeks ago. I feel like most of your posts just involve being critical and discouraging others from doing things when it's not even necessary or productive. | ||

korean is already considered one of the easier languages in the world to learn, learning languages even basic stuff broadens your horizon and expand your knowledge. but i guess a typical internet user has too much attention deficit to focus on learning something new i guess. | ||

The argument of Koreans learning English so we should learn Korean is pretty bunk though. They have years of mandatory English in school, they didn't learn it so they could play StarCraft with foreigners lol. Although maybe it was a fun way for them to practice. If you are interested enough in Korea you want to learn a bit of their language that's great, and more power to you if you learn enough small talk to get games, but an English speaking server is really important to maintaining an international community. English is the language of business and any country you travel to you can find someone who speaks English. It's the privilege and the curse of native English speakers that there is rarely an external motivation powerful enough to make you learn a second language. I think Birdie deserves criticism for being so smarmy when he's delivered nothing so far, there didn't need to be a thread for this or vague update bumps. But whoever wants to go to Fish has already gone to Fish. Here's a post from page 3 that's pretty accurate  On May 22 2013 22:20 Manifesto7 wrote: So which is easier? Sitting down with iccup people amd working things out, or setting up a new server and maintaining it for years to come? I think I know the answer... Extra, extra, group of rag tag stubborn amateur programmers fail to deliver on wild estimates of making a superior server in 6 months! Who could have predicted that?? I guess I gotta give you credit for continuing to burden yourself with it over a year later. I'd have given up in shame and taken on a smaller, more manageable project. | ||

Being able to play and practice in a server where all the top players congregate not a good enough external motivation for any serious bw player to learn even a teeny bit of korean? Pff monolinguals and their excuses. | ||

I bet there are some coders lurking here too and maybe have some solutions to things... I recommend that too and I suggest that the progress will be much faster. I also think people would appreciate an unfinished server more than none to test at all. And btw, playing on Fish ain't that bad anymore. I feel like the lag has become much better for Europeans compared to one year ago. | ||

I bet there are some coders lurking here too and maybe have some solutions to things... There is another PvPGN project that is being developed concurrently with StarServer and is open source. I've been attempting to contribute back and forth between both projects but they're being written in different languages(we're using C, the other is using C++) so it's been difficult. Any lurking coders here could always PM me for details on how to help out. | ||

I've never had a problem with ICCup myself. Great server when it has people. | ||

I'm guessing he means this part "I also think people would appreciate an unfinished server more than none to test at all." Why use an unfinished server when you have a finished one, that's what I'm assuming he meant. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong Gecko lol | ||
