Remember when Flash used to be humble and shy? Remember when he said that he's too afraid to start his Afreeca stream because he never streamed before? Terror infested him too! LMAO! But unlike Bisu he never needs to take a bet where loser shaves his eyebrows because he never gonna lose. I wonder when Jeadong will start partying with them.

Ah, thread is pure gold!

I wonder what Terror's doing is considered as acceptable in Korea. Or is it that he's not doing it anymore but still has his fans so he can invite a lot of people over? If so, I think becoming famous first using whatever tactic becoming a legit strat more and more as I observe. I mean, that's how the Kardashian became a thing (Someone's welcome to disagree as I don't know much) .

I wonder if this is a good thing or a bad one overall

Oh come on; I only know Flash from SC2. Funny stuff should always be shared ㅠ_ㅠ

1. You can always create your own thread on SC2

2. The last thread reaching 250 pages were spammed with SC2 memes no one here understands because they were SC2 related.

In my head, the girl has gotten a more and more resigned look from all the horrible pick up lines she's had to suffer over these 6 pages.

Can y'all do anything with these?

You are saying as if there is a lot to say for flash in sc2. Personally, I don't think there would be that much and would be much better if one would put it here for the sake of simplicity and relevance (I am thinking like five ish in a whole thread). But I guess that's the editor's call.

It is just common courtesy. I don't go around posting baseballer Michael Jordan memes in a NBA forum.

I think you're a bit anal about separating BW and SC2 in a meme thread, I wouldn't say it is common courtesy as much as your personal conviction.

I am pretty sure it is not generally acceptable to behave like Terror in Korea. I have read several forum posts in the past about people being afraid to admit to their friends that they watch Terror (and even Afreeca to a lesser extent). However, Afreeca attracts a particular type of audience, many of whom do find it acceptable.

I don't know about the short term but he's likely terrible for the long term. After all, Terror was actively shilling for illegal betting sites and one point. He was caught doing so and fined. A major TV station did a story on the terrible stuff that people do on Afreeca and Terror was prominently featured. In my opinion, his involvement in Brood War is a ticking time bomb and a potential PR nightmare if the press were to take a more active interest.

Also, Terror's fans tend to be very vocal in a bad way. These are the people who will flood the chat with insults like "has-been" when players loses games. Terror's viewers are mostly Terror's fans rather than BW fans. In fact, many of them are too young to have seen KeSPA-era BW.

The usual story streamers tell when explaining why they hang out with Terror is that he is really nice and polite to them in private. People often like terrible people who are nice to them. Also, in the echo chamber that is Afreeca, it's easy to forget that a lot of the stuff that Terror does is not acceptable in general.

The only potential positive is that he might get some younger people to play BW. I doubt that many kids will play BW though. It is not the most approachable game because of various OS/networking issues that must be addressed for online play. Furthermore, kids will need mommy's credit card to buy a legit copy. If not, they will have to find a way to download it without getting a virus. Apparently, many of the illegal copies distributed online carry viruses. They will also have to download a launcher, which some anti-virus programs will flag. The other barrier is that the game is in English. The kids would have to figure out how to get Korean language mods.
