Who cares if day9 is a dick off camera? Or if he is hoarding shitloads of money and not living it up so the world can see it?
Respect him as a professional and respect his private life.

Pretty much. I wouldn't even get my pitchfork out of storage if Sundance put a donation page on the MLG site - I'd be annoyed and not donate, but if other people want to then they're free to do whatever they want.

You are missing the point of the thread. Plenty of good RTS analysers that aren't two faced, treat people like shit at live events, or beg for donations they don't need. Yes, and Day9 is one of those RTS analyzers. I can speak from my personal experience here. He's a nice guy. In fact, reading through this thread, there are two groups of people: 1) people who haven't met Day9 and think he's a dick and 2) people who HAVE met day9 and think he's great. I think we know which group is more credible. There is also a group that you are ignoring, who met day9 and thought he was a dick. I wouldn't expect you to mention it.
And why should we believe those people? Narcissists get rebuked every day and blame others for it, see the epic saga of Paul Christoforo and his wwebsite as on the internet.

Why's this thread still around? It's mildly tolerable as people has already pointed out that it's an issue wasn't an issue in TL in the first place, and now it's starting to degrade to people namecalling around in here.

Dude what planet are you living on?day9 the biggest personality in the industry?What industry?he is a successfull caster,I give him that but there are tons of personalitites that keep sc2 alive for fans.MKP,Violet,Idra,naniwa,Incontrol,MC,MMA,Nestea and virtually every single progamer out there is more known than day9.When I watch a tournament I watch it because I want to see MKP vs DRG or Squirtle or MVp not some caster. Dude, what world are YOU living in. Learn to read, I never said there were no other personality that helps this industry, because they're all joint, but Day9 has done alot of things for this community and by doing that he's also gained alot of fame not only inside the community but outside of it promoting e-sports and SC2. I can almost promise you that more people know about Day9 than any of the names you put out there, especially the players (sadly). Why do I even respond to your post, seems to me you just wanted to say that there are other people in the industry that does alot of good (which was never up for discussion, because it's pretty damn obvious and not related to this topic). Reread your initial post man.You specified Day9 is the most wellknown perosnality in the sc2 industry.Which is completly fake and stupid.All major progamers are more wellknown than day9.The fact that Day9 does good for the community I give him that-he is a grinder and works dayly to put that analysis of his on youtube.
Are you really this thick? Really? You think anyone reading forbes or pretty much anyone who isnt INSIDE the community already know anything about the progamers? No. But people outside and EVERYONE inside the community knows who day9 is. Who are you seriously trying to fool, or do you just not understand what "well known" means?
Ffs more people know about destiny than your fav progamers in the GSL...

Idra didn't shit on him, and who the fuck is 2gd and cadred? Backlash? People wouldn't know who they were if they didn't start some sort of e-sports drama. This kind of nonsense is how you get fame in this childish community.

I kinda dislike it alot when he is always the superstar at the end of MLGs, "Im day9, and this has been awesome blablabla..", when it ofcourse should have been the winner in the spotlight. Other than that I think have no personal reason to dislike him, I've never met him!

Again, if you can find someone to finance the scene better then our those currently tossing us crumbs, tell us where. I also hate seeing politically correct corect internetusers such as yourself throwing the word `community` around when most of the viewers form tournaments who keep the sc2 scene alive(that is the tenths of thousands of viewers needed for a tournament to be succesfull)only watch a tournament for specific stars and drama.just watch as the ratings go down when a well known celebrity leaves a tournament.But you don`t care about that now do you.Personally if you consider my post garbage,i consider you garbage also and yes users such as yourself are a plague to the esports community. Unsubstantiated garbage. People watch a number of different reasons. If a tournament can fill all those requirements, great casters, great players, great production, then people will watch. All components are important. Casters have an extremely important role in being the frontline of entry into the scene for those uneducated in the game. In reference to the last few sentences: I have so many creative insults floating around in my head, but I shan't give you the satisfaction. You don`t make any sense.You don`t watch him yet state he is interesting and helpfull for the community.This is exactly my point.Who watches Day9?How do you know he is doing good if you don`t watch him?" If other people enjoy watching him, then more power to them. He entertains people, he expands the games influence to a broader audience and he looks for ways to include corporate interests so to bring in more money. He is most certainly not a detracting influence for sc2, and therefore he may do as he pleases in my eyes. You can call yourself and your mother scumbags and garbage.Probably that is what you and them are.I don`t talk to idiots like you.You are unable to have a conversation without throwing insults.You suck.Period. In the words of Day9:`Talk to the hand troll`
Since you present no argument, then I'll take that as you conceding.
And to address your whimpers about hurt feelings, you're the one who started posting with a full blown character assassination of someone almost universally revered as a source of good within the community. Problem is you failed to present any reason or evidence for why we should hate this person as you do. I don't care who the person in question is, you acted and continue to act like a spiteful ass with no reason other than the person rubs you the wrong way. Don't like someone, fine. But don't spew lies and accusations. Especially things you wouldn't say to the face of anyone who personally knows Day9. That's why you're a scumbag, and a coward to boot.

I'd just like to say that the sentiment you've expressed here is totally reasonable. Of course you have no reason to dislike him! If everyone in this thread was like you this thread would be like 30 posts long, tops.

That's a rhetorical device, friend. I did use it, and my point is that you're banking on these guys' credibility in the scene when they're in fact relatively small-time. I daresay the torrent of pro-day9 anecdotes easily outweighs these guys' whispers.

He single-handedly with A TON OF WORK raised the proficiency of foreign RTS and the interest in RTS at all, which of course was much lower when most people couldn't even learn how to play it right. You are missing the point of the thread. Plenty of good RTS analysers that aren't two faced, treat people like shit at live events, or beg for donations they don't need. Yes, and Day9 is one of those RTS analyzers. I can speak from my personal experience here. He's a nice guy. In fact, reading through this thread, there are two groups of people: 1) people who haven't met Day9 and think he's a dick and 2) people who HAVE met day9 and think he's great. I think we know which group is more credible. There is also a group that you are ignoring, who met day9 and thought he was a dick. I wouldn't expect you to mention it. That group is much smaller than either of the groups I listed, so yes, I didn't mention it. *I* met day9 and he was a very nice and amicable fellow both during and following the event he casted. He hung out with the rest of the crew and drank beers and told jokes and was generally a great guy. That's my personal anecdote, and there are more who agree with me than disagree. While it's a lot smaller it's also a lot more credible, you think 2gd , idra and cadred would shit on him for no reason, knowing the backlash it would generate for them? Well, first off, regarding IdrA: Yes, he totally would. Secondly, regarding IdrA: um... he didn't. He thinks day9 is a great guy and made an off-hand comment about the dude's income. It's np. lastly: who's cadred and 2gd? Google, use it.
Constructive posts, make them.
