Hmm neverGG, this thread post with google translation well was bit pointless. I mean I can do it myself but I won't make thread just to copy paste it here. If you are bored, just make short statement and link source. Usually there is someone to translate it.


Oh and according to SCForall.com 3 other Woonjin players retired too http://www.scforall.com/news/news02.asp?mNum=n02&PageNo=1&where=&query=&sterm=&articleNum=908

What is the point of putting this in a spoiler?

sad indeed. the huge skill gap renders bottom players useless anymore. it may as well be a motivation killer for new generation??

Oh my, that's really sad. Fantastic_namoo and Max were a beastly team, really. Max + Piano too.

So much bitterness in that interview, I'm actually pretty surprised. I mean, Max could have been a great player probably. But so many progamers *could* have been great, so many... Kinda sad to see them come and go.

NsP_DarLinG going back to study... I guess there is a way out for some of them. Progaming is a hard career.

Uh did you even read the top notes?

I said I would edit the op - I just wanted to let people know incase no one translated it because Max isn't really a very big name.

(I'm bored so I ran this through google translator and then cleaned out most of the Korean - hopefully someone can provide a REAL translation!! I am not claiming this is accurate, but you get the gist until someone can do it properly and I'll add it to the OP.)

I then went to bed because I was damn tired - hence the gap between posting and editing the OP/
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH.

I *knew* someone would have to bitch about this to me. I'm editing the op right now to include the actual translations done by losing and another person. Sorry for making the effort to try and provide a little bit more information! Jesus people like you make me wonder why I bother some times.

I need to put the wall-hitting icon on full time some days.

[Heavy whining]

Sometimes there needs to be critics about something to improve quality.

I just don't wanna see this kind of pattern happening too often

1. Add words "bored" to start of news (sounds like news is poorly done but it can be saved still)

2. Using internet translators, those don't work

3. Finally which makes me sad is adding "I'll edit later if better translation comes ..."

For example, I could get one random news from fomos and start thread by saying "bla bla bored bla bla, (insert fomos picture). Using google translator bla bla, i'll edit later if better translation comes". I bet not that many would be happy and soon many threads would be closed.

Just to point out I like your photo threads, those are super nice. But perhaps translating posts could be done someone else

I've done this ONCE - I liked Max as a player and a person when I met him and I wanted to share the fact that he's finally retired. I am sorry for not being one of the official translators/fluent in Korean, but I was just trying to share the news incase someone else didn't do it.

There will be no need for an 'improvement in quality' because this was a one-time deal. I just won't bother in the future with attempting to provide more than photos here because someone ALWAYS feels the need to come into the thread and bitch.

As it is - the comments on the Artosis photo thread made me highly consider what the hell I'm doing using all my free time and saving a massive chunk of my wages (to buy a better camera.) for people who are just going to tell me my photos make the subject retarded or complain about his;

- hair.
- health.
- dark circles.
- location.
- the weather.
- Some other bullshit that I can't control.

Thanks a lot for making me feel like a piece of shit for even bothering to try and contribute something else. Go you.

Btw I remember him mostly for beating Boxer on Alchemist in IOPS. I kinda hated him for that since Boxer didnt qualify for RO8 because of that.

You know that major of people who sees your pictures (75% typical internet numbers) don't type anything to your photo threads. Why? They are happy seeing those photos and most don't bother to make appreciation posts, just compare posts to views.

Tips to handle those complaints. Just talk to fellow admins and ask to nuke posts that contains certain comments about your photos (those you cant control, enviroment etc). Those makes your photos more living than fomos (which are pretty boring) pictures.

Max was on this list as well: http://www.scforall.com/news/news02.asp?mNum=n02&PageNo=1&where=&query=&sterm=&articleNum=904

I noticed Stay[HyO] is listed there, too which is odd because he retired in March.

That's sad .. I hoped Max could do some kind of comeback. I really started to enjoy watch him play since a game against .. Mind iirc on Katrina where he didnt make his pool before his fourth hatch.
That was really amazing.

Stop being such a dick Too_MuchZerg. Seriously, she noted in the OP that this was just a rough translation, and it's better than nothing so quit complaining. It's not like it was a horrible OP or anything.
