I almost wish you didn't make this thread because it's another thread/ excuse for people who dont like her to express their feelings and cause more fights.

It's a fan club thread- if people don't like her they can stay TFO. Why is this so hard to understand?

Because when I first clicked on it, it was called a support group, not a fanclub. Didnt change until after i submitted that. That's why it's "hard to understand"

The title of the thread has not changed. A request has been sent to Hot_Bid to remove the Support Group part.

To clarify, as a non-english speaker i was not aware of the fact that "Support Group" had such a negative vibe to it. When translated directly into swedish, the meaning is literary the same as "Fan club" except with different wording.

You know what, good for her. She has heart, she loves the game, she loves what she is doing. And in my book, that is first and foremost what is needed in order to cast. You guys nit pick so much about her pronunciation, etc - but I don't see YOU out there putting yourself up for the world to analyze YOUR behaviors and nuances.

Good luck, Kelly. Continue to grow and learn and enjoy this opportunity! Take what people say with a grain of salt and just continue to improve yourself and the cast and GOM in the best way you can.

Cheers.

And why is that? a little constructive critism would be much appreciated.

1. She adds much needed diversity and colour to the scene. As much as i love tasteless and artosis and every other american caster/commentator, it gets tedious after a while to always listen to american/european males talk and analyze the games. I know some people are annoyed by her accent but i find it refreshing, energic and sincerley put; pretty damn cute.

Most people probably dont realize this, but for being born and raised in singapore, her english is really really good. I have traveled a lot through asia i can say that during my stays there, i never met anyone who had nearly as good pronounciation as her and noone came close to the volume of her english vocabulary (wich is REALLY impressive).

I dont think people realize how HARD it is for a person from her part of the world to learn to speak and understand english. As you might know, asian languages are fundamentally different from ours on the most basic level of speech; how you articulate speech. If you where to learn chinese or any other east-asian language you would pretty quickly understand the technical difficulities, because your vocal cords are not trained to the movements that those languages are built around, and it works the other way around. Listen to John for example, who is a very talented and hard working indivudual, but even he has a very hard time pronouncing certain words and phrases. I think its remarkable that kelly can speak and pronounce english so well and at such a fast pace (hehe) because most singaproreans could never come close to her level even if they trained for 25 years. SO WHAT if her pronounciation of some units/abilities is not perfect. She might say "Borrow" and "Steem" but its not like you dont understand that she is refering to Burrow/Stim. You get the message, so why be bothered?

You know what, good for her. She has heart, she loves the game, she loves what she is doing. And in my book, that is first and foremost what is needed in order to cast. You guys nit pick so much about her pronunciation, etc - but I don't see YOU out there putting yourself up for the world to analyze YOUR behaviors and nuances.
