Honestly, it sounds weird, but there's no real reason to even be complaining when there's a heading on top of Lindsey Sporrer's fanclub not to judge on whether the fanclub is valid or not. Btw, Lindsey doesn't even play the game and she has a huge fan listing.

But the fan club for Lindsey is for the exact same reason. This fan club isn't legit either, but at least she's a "player" for a pro team. Pathetic anyhow.
the league would be responsible quite a bit for F.United I'd imagine, whether that's direct influence or indirect (i. giving gsl spots encourages foreigners to come over). but your point is still generally correct.

I don't really think she deserves a fanpage yet. It's an insult towards the players/people who actually do have accomplished something or did something for the community, she however has accomplished nothing so far, thus there is no way you could be a fan of her, the only way you could be a fan of her is because of her looks and gender, but then we might aswell make a fanpage for every female gamer.
you seem to forget, she has boobs, its sad but true... if this was a man, no one would care
This is so sad that people are a fan of this person. She is in Gold for Christ sakes. This just takes away from players who actually accomplish something. She will just burden her team in the GSTL and make SlayerS look less serious. Poor decision to pick her up and be a fan.

I heard on the Korean server you're placed into Gold (Not 100% sure about this part) and you have to work up 1 league at a time. She made an account, got placed in Gold, and ladder is locked so shes stuck there. If you want, you can check her match history and see if she's playing gold level players or masters level players but thats up to you. Just remember before you criticize someone to know the whole story beforehand.

Because she hasn't played a single game. Literally everyone who signed has never seen her play. What possible reason is there to make a fanclub? Because it's a player from slayers? By that logic every slayers player should have a fan club. The sole reason there's a fanclub and people are signing is because she's a girl. That's kinda pathetic and reinforces a plethora of stereotypes about nerds and online gaming communities, which is why some people have a problem with it. I'm all for gender equality in esports, but gender equality people should be treated a certain way because of their own merit, regardless of gender.
I don't hate this person, but until we actually see her play it seems ridiculous to have a fanclub.
It's great to see more females engaging in something as male-dominant as esports (: Even if she isnt the most skilled player, she's a role model for other females who may be aspiring to become progamers, but haven't had the confidence to come out (I guarantee you there are many amazing female players who shy away due to the community)! GL in your future as a progamer Eve. ^^

This is a FAN CLUB, not a place for you to call if it is pathetic or not regardless of your opinion, create a thread question the mods about this or just ignore it.
She is the first female, korean SC2 progamer (that i know of), so we should appreciate that she tries it and opens the door for others. No matter what she might or might not be able to achieve, she is still a pioneer and deserves our respect for trying.
