It's quite different when someone from Europe who doesn't speak natively speak English, as languages in Europe are at least similar and use a latin alphabet, so referring to Rotterdam in the interview is pretty dumb. I mean sure, she has a LOT of experience, but that doesn't mean she's good at the job. First IdrA leaves, now this horrendous caster becomes part of the GSL... it's just horrible for me. | ||

Don't let the door hit you on your way out, suckers. The Starcraft community is better off without whiners like you. | ||

I can see why she would say something like that, but if you break it down on an aesthetic level, her accent is very different from Rotterdam's. This proves she doesn't quite understand why people find her voice unappealing to begin with. | ||

You want to ignore the other hundreds of posters on TL who don't agree with GOMs decision, go ahead. And yes, if you click on my profile, you'll see I'm quite anti Kelly. I posted once... And then people like you responded with: - get used to it - then don't watch code a - it's her microphone - it's easy to understand her - but she's a nice person - gom chose her, it must have been for a good reason, get over it - she'll get 100 times better, you just have to wait the whole season And it's excuses like that forced me to respond. Because they're quite pitiful excuses/reasoning. Oh. And here's the funniest bit. Not once have I seen the excuse "but she's an incredible caster!"... lol liar, in this thread your first post was + Show Spoiler + On February 18 2011 14:55 andrewwiggin wrote: This. I'm sick and tired of arguing with people who think that Kelly is a decent caster at all and that we should just get used to it because that's the way it is. I have to go to ALOT of trouble to understand her at all. And there's no way she is the best caster in all of SEA. Absolutely not. every other post has been quoting someone and then just trying to hammer in YOUR opinion of why she would be a bad choice forever and ever and ever. MOST TL that disagree, they state their disagreement and leave it at that. Why do you feel the need to rebutt everyone else's opinion? Also MOST TL are also willing to give her a chance be it a week or even a whole season. Why don't you? Why would shit hit the fan if she doesn't nail it the first day on the job?+ Show Spoiler + On February 18 2011 17:59 andrewwiggin wrote: FINEEE. I'll give her a go! -___- But GOM better have a mad backup plan for the day after day 1 of Code A games...because if she's exactly like she is in her youtube vids, and nothing's changed... well then.. shit's gonna hit the fan. As far as i'm concern all the reason you listed ARE legit. The fact that she's been a caster for so long shows her dedication, and i respect that. Look at her youtube page, she has like 200 subcribers. I don't know how much revenue she gets from that, but cna't be that much. I'm also pretty sure she has a day job and does this from her free time. If she really is that bad of a caster, why does she keep getting her casting gigs, certainly not because of her overwhelming number of subscribers. The real question now is, why are you so anti-kelly? Unrequitted love? What is it? What makes you so bitter? That every post so far has been tinged with negativity. The only way to make esport grow is to support all the members of the community. To just go out there and DO something for it. Kelly is doing that. We should be supporting her and giving her feedbacks. She already said she'll try her best. What more do you want of her? And please stop calling me a child. That has nothing to do with this. Let my faith and optimistic view of the world be left untainted. Haters are going to hate. Why can't i just ignore all the flame? I don't see how that makes me a child. | ||

Don't let the door hit you on your way out, suckers. The Starcraft community is better off without whiners like you. People will probably watch Code A, but not from the official stream. I'm sure everyone wants to support the Foreigners, just not the terrible caster | ||

This imo is the same thing...Maybe Kelly will be bad at start...but im sure if Gom picked her (aka chose to give her money!), she will get awesome in time. | ||

This imo is the same thing...Maybe Kelly will be bad at start...but im sure if Gom picked her (aka chose to give her money!), she will get awesome in time. These are COMPLETELY different situations. The ability to look around the map better and the ability to completely change the way you talk are in no way similar. People need to stop bringing up the observer like it's a similar situation. Plus she's been casting for a long time without this magical improvement people seem to be expecting. | ||

stop using esports for an excuse for every damn thing. i stated my opinion about kelly before so i wont do it again, but i am sick of this stupid esports talk. no we dont have to support everybody who tries to do something in the scene. we have to support the people that are good at it! i dont give a damn how hard someone tries. i dont have to like it and i wont support it just for the sake of esports. and if people dont like the work of a certain caster and dont want to see him/her casting the biggest starcraft 2 tournament in the world right now than they have all the right to make their opinion heard, instead of saying "ill suck it up for the sake of esports". | ||
