I even ran it for a while as Arcneon left me in charge. I was there pretty much on my own for 5 months refusing to leave the clan, but then I eventually leave and a month later Arcneon decides to grace everyone with his precense again and everyone who left came flocking back :x Seems like he left again though. | ||

Tried entering with 3 different smurfs and nothing works because I get ????? thing, looks like they deleted account. What the hell. If they really decided to do this by denying access fully - fuck you Fish, kek? EDIT: Seems server running again but I never witnessed something like that where I can connect but can't pass login screen so thought they nuked me.

I lived in China for five months and everyone used these things. Why would the market shut out non-Koreans on prepaid SIM cards? That's so weird to me... | ||

I lived in China for five months and everyone used these things. Why would the market shut out non-Koreans on prepaid SIM cards? That's so weird to me... It's that SIM cards in Korea are tied to citizens and I've never heard of a legitimate outlet to buy SIMs outside of Korea without physically moving there to apply for a cellular company. BUT, I could be 100% wrong. I am not informed with SIM regulations. On March 31 2016 09:34 Hesmyrr wrote: Unexpected but not surprised. Korean websites had always been one of most brutally difficult places to register for, with their crazy mandatory verification. Word, most Koreans hate the ID thing too T_T At least with SMS verification things are easier than that and foreigners can still get in. Albeit hard but I think the foreigners not speaking Korean is something Fish admins don't like. It's a Korean server meant for Korean players, and we need to respect that. Most foreigners that break the rules don't get in trouble because they can't read the rules. | ||

Why would they not set up a system where foregners can pay a 1 time fee of 10 usd to play? Just ignoring the fact that foreigners slipped into fish and have been playing there for years now is just being ignorant. Like they don' t know what happened yeah. | ||

This is just openly xenophobic. The argument this is a server for Koreans is goofy. Hitler tried to make a country "just for Germans" and that worked out nicely. I honestly hope someone or teamliquid emails fish and tries to get this fixed for us. So unfair. | ||

Like they don' t know what happened yeah. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUE0PPQI3is It's not in their best interest to allow to foreigners to play on Fish to be honest. Lag issues is just one reason. Inability to communicate is a lesser one. An on-average lower skill level is another. They have absolutely 0 need, benefit, and apparently want, to allow foreigners to play. Hating on them for enforcing the same rules that are applied to most other games in Korea only makes sense because you are in the party that lost out. No one likes to be that guy that didn't get a piece of cake at the company party, and will be quick to cry "injustice." However, there is nothing unjust about it. Complaining is going to achieve exactly nothing. On March 31 2016 10:49 Bwforverpls wrote: So is this the end of foreigners playing anywhere but iccup? Or will team liquid make a thread that connects us with kind Koreans that will make us accounts? This is just openly xenophobic. The argument this is a server for Koreans is goofy. Hitler tried to make a country "just for Germans" and that worked out nicely. I honestly hope someone or teamliquid emails fish and tries to get this fixed for us. So unfair. There is still Melee mode, which on average should satisfy a large portion of foreign players in terms of skill requirement. There is still Garena, Gameranger, Evolve, and other clients that support BW. And, if you know anyone who has a Korean #, you can still ladder. | ||
