Like dan said, stick to your name, its fine
As bgx said, he almost never used forGG, it was always Never_V_ .
On TL (or just the foreigner community in general) we tend to refer to someone by a particular name even if they change it, in Korea at least. Although it has a similar effect even with foreigners. I still refer to Liquid'Tyler as NoNy all the time. And I think Major will finally stick (although he's had a few since, and I don't think Terran was ever a good name for him, just as it gets confused with the race). I know we referred to KT_Practice as Luxury, forever, in BW, and still do when referring to him, despite him not using the tag Luxury for years before the scandal. CuteAngel/Frozean (Frozen) is another. There's a ton, I just can't think of them off the top of my head.

Health bars make it very hard to tell which units are selected and makes marine micro the biggest bitch ever, imo. You don't know how many times I've thought I've had all my marines selected to try to split to only find out I only had a third, and lost because of that. As a Random player, I manually turn health bars on every time I play Protoss, and turn them back off every time I play Zerg/Terran. I feel you need to have them as Protoss for micro early game and then in the later game for blink stalkers.

theres's like.. zero pro players, race notwithstanding, that share the sentiment that having them off helps micro though. Don't you ever think you should tough it out and leave them on and see what you're missing ( i mean, i dont know what kind of setup you have, or if you have vision problems) but as a terran/zerg I've never had the problems you're describing.
As for fOrGG, i'm sure the reasson he has them off is to keep it similar to broodwar, though i'm thinking he'll change such things eventually, same as he'll no doubt change the marine hotkey he has on 'm,' etc.

forgg's timing/macro really stand out because theyre a level above the rest of his game. (or they were, its caught up recently) flash is insanely good at everything so it doesnt seem as special with him.

So many all-ins, wonder how forgg will do in a macro game against idrA :/ but actually seeing idrA getting all-ined by top level players so many times really makes me happy, cuz now he can learn how to stop them 
keep up with the good games Fin! wp!

The 4 hellions fllowed by cloaked bashee is not an all-in. One of the zergs dealed with it and the game went for a standard macro game.

everybody bitching (sorry for word usage) about his macro credities should watch sage vs forgg game 2, he went up to 3 base without floating more than 400 minerals in whole game, even when defending dt drops and microing his army, while players like Puma gets supply blocked at least twice every second game...
in this case its more like choice of strategy rather than "im terrible player capable of 1base only, sry"

the more idrA will deal with it, the stronger he will be.

Sign me up, I like this guy

Being zerg, i still have to honestly respect this guy! He has only one mistake - he is terran :D
Sing me up pls

So I stayed up to watch him stream, this guy has the best micro I have seen in SC2. I love his TvZ style, it's just attack, attack, attack. He either proxy 11/11 raxs or does a hellion runby into cloaked banshee into mass thor push before the zerg takes a third.

What people don't understand about forGG is that before he was known for his timing attacks and won his MSL over Flash/Jaedong is that he was known for his macro and awful control, it has since come full circle.
At some point in 2007 Hot_Bid wrote: If ForGG ever learns how to properly micro, watch out. His macro is like he listens to a subliminal "we require more minerals" message every night while he sleeps. It is funny how many units he makes and even funnier how many he then loses with sloppy control. He is already good enough to be a solid Proleague contributor (10-8), and if he learns how to use those blobs of units he makes, he could be a champion.
