Staff Note: We don't endorse donation threads. In fact after a number of previous issues, we basically have a full out ban on them. However, in this case we are allowing it because of Artosis's status and contributions to the community. Artosis brought the issue up with the TL staff before creating this topic.
EDIT 2: - WOW, all done! thanks so much everyone! you will not be disapoint!
EDIT: thanks everyone SO MUCH!! its overwhelming just how quickly everyone came to my aid here! i only need 100$ more in donations, anything over will be given back to the community in one way or another! seriously, thanks so much everyone!
Hey all! I hoped to never have to do this, but, the Camera I use for all my content is out of date, very poor picture quality, horrible sound quality, and requires repairs from time to time. Also, I've been borrowing it from a friend who also loves SC (thx rick <3) all this time lol.
So I come to the community asking for anyone who wants to, to help me on the way to replacing this. As SC2 comes out, I will be continuing plenty of Korean-based coverage, but also traveling to every major LAN around the world.
Thanks so much to all the SC fans out there who have enjoyed my videos and left nice comments and/or criticisms over the past couple of years, without you it wouldn't have been worth it. If you feel like it, please feel free to donate any amount to this just cause!
DONE

Oh come on... :\
Your job requires the use of said camera, doesn't it? How can this not be provided for you?
Although I must say, I approve of your email.

I know it looks bad whenever asking for money but I know 100% that Artosis is not trying to bullshit anyone... he constantly uses his camera to contribute to the bw community, mostly out of the goodness of his nerdy heart and love of esports.
Seriously this guy let me share a bed with him on a whim when I had nowhere to stay he's awesome.

What? I wasn't calling you a dishonest thief, I was just expressing surprise that it wouldn't be possible for you to get this on your own. I wish you the best of luck and enjoy your coverage, I just was a bit taken aback that someone like you who makes money in the eSports scene would need to do this.

Awwwwweeee. Can we pretend something happened and make it the story for the next campfire?

Dans job probably is mostly writing atricles and thats the part he gets paid for, i think he just does everything else for the community. I would donate but im not in the best finicial state to help.

I didn't assume, I asked a question.

At the end of the month I buy blocks of tofu with coins lol. eSports in Korea is not some lucrative job for me. I do it out of love for the game.

"oh come on..." = "how can they not give you a camera" not "U R FILTHY LIAR WHORE CHEAT"
is my guess

I rest my case.. I didn't exactly think it was great pay, but I figured you were at least in okay shape for you to move across the world for it. My mistake, then. I'll just go away now >>

Well why don't you give us more details about your situation so we can donate while being informed?

It's more expressing surprise at their failure to provide for their employees, not Artosis's credibility.

nah. I love my life. I just want/need to replace the camera, can't really afford to, so anyone with some extra cash laying around in their paypal that wants to give some can help me out if they like. Lets not discuss the other stuff. I've gotten a great opportunity out here, I've sacrificed a lot, yeah, but I'm definitely enjoying it, don't regret a thing, etc.
I'm as legit as they come in eSports, if you don't want to donate I have absolutely no problem in the world with that

That's how I would have read things, too. Your rather prickly reaction came as a surprise to me.

FWIW, I saw it as "Oh come on, how could you ask for this" so I'm not surprised that Artosis did too. Glad that that apparently wasn't the intention though.
