Well, to be fair, Klazart did not break any rules by doing what he did. The rules actually support the involvement of the author`s readership. But yes, the administrators probably never anticipated anything like this.
The premise of the book is actually quite interesting, since it touches upon the sensitive issue of conflict between India and Pakistan. So it might have potential.
While I am a fan of Klazart`s commentaries and will register and read what he has posted, I am only going to vote for his book if I genuinly will consider it good. As a prospective writer, I consider it my duty to evaluate Klazart`s work based on the quality of the work itself and not on his commentating reputation.

I don't mind his voice at all. It's alright. People are so picky these days - not every commentator can have a manifesto7 golden voice!

For the record Klazart, I really think your commentaries suck for a number of reasons but I still give you respect and props for doing what you do. Overall it's good for SC anyways. Good Luck with this book and whatever else you do.

It seems that there are a few old guard in here that are suddenly kissing KlazFan butt. Hoping to get in on the action early? Hmmm.....

I really cannot stress enough that it is fucking TERRIBLE that people are so adamantly in support of that guy. It is like Gilbert Godfrey being an ESPN commentator.. it BLOWS MY MIND. He has the most nerdy, irritating and terrible tone I have ever heard. I am sure he is a great human being but he has NO BUSINESS commentating on the level he does.

I don't think so. But why would I? Does he use a different voice?

His commentaries are good...why don't you listen to them Inc? He's a LOT better than Diggity and Moletrap. Besides, people always adamantly support idols on the internet. I believe you have some supporters of your own.

God damn it.. where is he from/ethnicity? What can explain that horrid voice? Irish + Indian = ? holy christ that makes so much sense.. IRISH INDIAN? WHO THE FUCK DOES THAT? it is like a pink dolphin.. you just dont do that.
I don't know man, you don't know how much of a douche your comments came across to me, specially being American, your nation stands against those very comments.
The U.K has always had an influx from the old commonwealth and old colonies.
How about German American, or Chinese Australian, or English Indian? Or German Turks or French Algerians? Or Jewish Iranians?
What's so strange? What century are you living in?
There is a ton of Klazart related threads in Teamliquid. As if you had not heard his voice before today. I for one do not believe neither your outcry or surprise (no matter what you may claim). Why you don't like him is beyond me, his voice is not "horrible" but at least be honest about it or don't use him for entertainment cause all he has done is contribute and add to our community.

I don't care if you think I am a douche. I don't care if you don't believe that I haven't heard him (that isn't relevant, had I heard him I could STILL have this reaction). "Being american" what? I don't give a fuck if I am Chinese and I don't like the color red.. I am just myself in this case and guess what? My opinion is shared so apparently it isn't so zany.
He over-pronounces a ton of shit and it sounds horrid. I love Day[9] but when he said "concave} in reference to the attack formation of hydralisks I knew I needed to poison his drink.

its interesting how there's a forum war there and a forum war beginning to brew here..

Don't really want to aggitate this, but you would rather listen to someone who had a "good"(according to you) voice but shitty commentary as opposed to a "bad" voice but great commentary?

Oh you mean his complete lack of knowledge of the game? Ya that totally makes up for it...

And no hating someone's voice isn't trolling. That word is WAY overused. I have just played this video for tasteless, machine, g5, nyoken etc.. they all agree.. this is terrible. If he does great commentary that a bunch of nubs like (which I heard is the case) that is good. But I can have the opinion that his voice is horrid and I have no idea how anyone can think that voice is good for commentating.

I was more referring to the Indian and Irish bit, but ok. I can see how many people would find Klaz's voice really abrasive.

Why does it have to be one or the other? Artosis has an amazing radio voice AND is smart for the game. Tasteless is exciting and smart.. klazart is neither.. he is good for nubs but with a terrible voice. Can I not be critical of this? And I don't want to hear "critical -/= flaming" this is an internet forum.. we are gamers.. this isn't a town meeting where I need to resign my opinion to plastic bullshit.. I think his voice is garbage so I will literally say it.

One interesting note is that I know Klazart has pretty brutal carpal tunnel, so I wonder how he wrote his book / is responding to all of these forums so quick? Maybe his wife types for him, or he has a program that does speech to text.
