A NO-FEE? A NO-FEE?! -__-;
Well, you are a former mensrea No-Prize winner, so guess I can offer a short, short explanation then:
The Korean nick given to Sync is "Bul-kkot Terran." Bul-kkot, strictly speaking, means "spark" (as in "sparks flew when the metal swords clashed..." etc.). On the other hand, bul-kkot may also be used to mean "fireworks" - it's not technically wrong. But, in fact, most Koreans usually say bul-kkot-no-ri when talking about fireworks a la 4th of July USA and not just bul-kkot, thus my preference.
But, who cares? I change my mind again. I'm gonna go with "Blaze Terran" from now on. I may be convinced to explain my reasons, but only for a fee...

btw, the site indicated in the post by Status (aka iszard aka EQUES aka ArtofDenim aka blah aka blahblah aka blahblahblah aka ...) leads to the private site of Mr. Joo Yeon-woo, a guy claiming to be a member of Korea's cyber terrorist squad!
I highly doubt Mr. Joo even KNOWS about this site, much less interested in my reports, but whatever.
A very cute threat from our resident internet psychopath iszard. He still believes I'm the one harrassing him on bw.com. In iszard's deranged world, basically any flame against iszard and bw.com MUST be from me. It couldn't possibly be that the denizens of that friendly site would dare flame anyone. It couldn't possibly be that people would fake my name and flame iszard with it.
This is too funny. I think I'm gonna go give Mr. Joo a call. Maybe he can help me with a problem I have...

Heh.
I know who mensrea is.
It's easy: english near to perfect, gosu friends, good understanding of korean language.
Of course it's Victor Martin aka [9]Everlast.
He was the 1st non-korean starcrafter to live in korea.
And I've heard he teaching koreans English now.
So, it's Victor Martin our swedish mercenary in Korea.
Hi-hi

Chu! I was thinking about Everlast too,i mean he's been in kor for a long time, he is old school enough pro to have respect, but where does the french come from? Mens, will you confirm if we guess correct?

Hmm, he said "deux" one time, so it means he knows french?
Je t'ame, l'amour etc. I know a lot of french words, so i know french?

Heh, point taken.
What mensrea said about Everlast (Victor) - quote: "[9]Everlast had a huge one (repu.) when he came here, but quickly found out that even high school kids could beat him". (again, from my weak mind so not correct quoted).
So Im confused I guess, but since 'rea at least gave us a hint that he is not korean, V_M seems to be the better guess

Mensrea
do you have a homepage?if so i'd like to visit
your english and korean are both very fluent...how old are you? if you don't mind me asking
|
Hahahahah I'm gonna have fun posting here.
Well to briefly introduce myself, I lived in korea for about 2 years and was for about 4 months elky and smuft's manager in Korea.
Actually, I have several questions to ask, about Iszard and mensrea's identity.
I know for fact that iszard is a girl, that use to work for dreamwiz if Im right, I also remember her getting my email adress and kindly fowarding me infos on korean leagues and stuff, since it was a bit hard to go check by myself on the websites cuz i didnt speak korean. Despite Jasmine's obvious lack of english grammar knownledge, I assume she must be a very nice girl, since she worked with Lena, that I know pretty well cuz I worked with her on several shows while I was in Korea, and Dreamwiz webstaff always looked to me very kind and devoted, but I never met Jasmine aka iszard or I do not remember.
Regarding Mensrea, first of all, I can't remember if you are a chick or not. If you're not, and if you actually are that close to players in korea, I think I must have met you, at least online, but thing is that, amongst all the girls I met through guild parties that were somehow related to gamers and pg community never ever spoke a single word of english, and I do not have any record of a bnet korean chick speaking english fluently.
If you are a guy, I have to say you remind me of someone, a young guy, that could speak ok english, and that was along with a goup of friends, completly glued to megawebstation each starleague given day, I think I might even have met you in gembcstudios. The way you speak reminds me of this kind of very big PGaming fan, but appart the pro gaming community itself.
I know for fact that you can't be close to korean pro gamers online or real life, you would not talk about the game and the players this way, the way you comment the games and such obviously shows a very basic SC knownledge and game understanding wich are very regular amongst the common starleague young amateur, that watches every show on cable tvs related to SC.
I know alot of ppls in korea, young, just like you, that speak the same way and such about Gaming in korea in general, and its very nice, but I kinda, and take no offense, dislike the way you make readers feel you are actually involved and deeply close to
pro gaming buisiness in korea, because you're obviously not.
I'll might be wrong tho, might also maybe me mistaking.
But still, I should ask elky, I think he knows or you met him somewhere right ?
Anyway, if you're one of the young sc fans I often met with elky or steven in studios, stages, lan or leagues, Im happy that the very few young ppls good at english in Korea and that get really interested in SC spend some time explaining to foreign ppls how its working over there, and I did not blame the way you see pro gaming, I think its good to give peoples the commonfolk's hardcore sc fan in korea point of view of pro gaming.
Well anyway just to know who you are.
I think somebody told me but i cant remember.
btw hi daaman you were cool online last week.

Actually, if we take this discussion a step further - Iszard and Mens are the same person! Split personalities, people!

no he's not Everlast, cause he doesn't live in Korea anymore. He has moved back to Sweden.

Villaret,
Thank you for writing. I suggest you ask the people who frequent this board why they believe iszard to be a complete psychopath. I understand that you may have had a pleasant experience with her (many others, including myself, did too - at least in the beginning), but there is a reason for the hostility. I do not feel like going over again the exact details (perhaps if you took the time to peruse some of the older threads on our site...), but she has repeatedly and blatantly lied to and caused considerable distress to people on this and other sites. I do not ask you to believe everything I say, only that, if you are interested in the truth, to take the time to look into the situation. I try as much as possible to give people the benefit of the doubt. But, there are limits to everything and unfortunately, with iszard, she crossed that limit a long time ago and in a very big way.
Please, keep posting here and, if at all possible, communicate with Nazgul and/or Halpmeh (aka Angel) about iszard.
I have chosen not to publicize details of my identity and I have my reasons. Suffice it to say tho that your guesses are incorrect and that I am fairly certain I have never met you irl (tho really, it's a small world and you never know...).
I am curious (and a little surprised) about your comment that you "dislike" the way I "make readers feel [I am] actually involved and deeply close to pro gaming business in Korea." How have I done that? Where have I ever in any of my writings anywhere and anytime said that? I have never pretended to be anything other than a person who happens to write about SC and professional gaming as a hobby. You are absolutely correct that the stuff I write is nothing special and that any generally interested SC fan in Korea could do it. Heck, more than once, my observations and predictions have later been proven wrong. I make no secret of any of this. If people, for whatever reason, speculate (as some have here in this thread) that I may be a former pro gamer or such other "deeply" related individual, then fine - it means that I'm at least doing a decent job. It's also likely a result of my identity being unknown to the general public. But, I do not believe this should be a reason to "dislike" anything. Certainly, my intent isn't to make myself seem like something I am not. I enjoy writing about SC and I do know something about the game, and ultimately I can only do my best in trying to give info that's relevant and in a format that's fun. I do not believe you should have a problem with this, whether you feel my reporting and knowledge of SC is hasu or not (it may well be from your perspective).
Thx for listening and looking forward to more posts from you here.

yes, i'm in cyber terrorist squad.
and i'd point this, the most things on this clan site are the non-legit things like ip's searching, threatening visitors or posting news with no source(including halpmeh alias Waxangel or site runner [pG]Liquid`Nazgul himself).
about me, i've known her when i was playing starcraft and decided to witness you for some time.
apparently, the every post flaming her on bw.com is written by him.
Facts
1. he hacked bw.com and still spoiling English's good mood going the union occupying boards with no name post.
2. he abused progamers and reporters or progaming for his own purpose.
3. he insulted the press corp's dignity.
here are her some points
1. DON'T hack Bw.Com, abuse with no name post bw.com(he's still doing) and here, we actually knows about you now but standing it. bw.com and EvilMetal knows better than you about internet.
2. no more cheats. don't abuse progamers or me. i'm the only legit reporter.
3. stop stalking me(don't spread black lies about me). when bw.com or by myself decides, anytime you'll be in be put on trial and you'll be fired from your company from your old post insulting us to now. and I feel no attachment for my present post.
anytime you can contact me.

Facts
1. IP logging isn't unlegit. It's common practice in just about every forum I've been in.
2. There are a million posts of everyone flaming you everywhere. Personally, I don't mind you much (given that you're Iszard, but even if you're not...) - you're lots of fun.
3. I've never been threatened here (that I know of), nor has anyone else that I know of. Feeling threatened is mostly a matter of personal, er, preference, in my experience.
