If we head down the "why do people hate Klaz?" road, the result will be lots of bans and closings. Let's just say people have a lot of different opinions on which commentators are good and leave it at that. <font size=3>Consider this an official warning, 2 day temp bans for people that keep bringing this up.</font> didnt enjoy your book | ||

I wanna know why everyone seems to dislike Klaz, i mean hes contributed alot to sc and the esports scene. Why do people seem to have some kind of beef with him? Right, so he wasn't the first. That was the question. | ||

Hot_Bid is right though, seeing what's happened, I'd prolly do it a LOT differently if I had a redo, but hey + Show Spoiler + I'm sure so would Jangbi Also.... does any one find it interesting that while the site appears to be broken, the advertisements for Bookarmy and the Sony Reader are working just fine? | ||

The authonomy site seems to be dying horribly atm I actually feel pretty bad for this, was never my intention... oh well.@Klaz, your book excerpt did get some sincere critiques from Authonomy users. Were they helpful? | ||

Dear Klaz, Regardless of the merits of your book (or not; I haven't read it yet, because I have tons queued up to read first), I think your presence has been useful insofar as it has highlighted a couple of issues: a) lack of futureproofing of authonomy (it was creaking before you came along); b) lack of real commitment to authonomy by HC (it will be interesting to see what they say about your book if it does make the top5); c) lack of innovative strategy for authonomy by HC; d) ease of manipulability of the current ranking systems on there. I do think it's slightly disingenous of you to say you couldn't foresee what effect your fans would have on the site (and you do have a lot of fans, because from what I can see, many people see you as very committed on other starcraft forums). However, this is immaterial to the fact that I hope something new for authonomy will come out of this. Best regards, R | ||

Best regards, R Look at most professional websites, especially social networking ones, youtube, facebook, twitter, etc etc etc. Look at TEAMLIQUID where we are now. They have so many more users than authonomy yet function perfectly fine. How could I predict that a website run by professionals as a business would have less bandwidth than most amateur gaming forums out there? I honestly don't have as many fans as you seem to think I do. | ||
