No not even close to the same scale. Not even 1% close. Again it's my PERSONAL twitter, and this is a PROFESSIONAL show. Note that tweet is not sent out on the @KoreanWeekly or @ESVTV twitters? That's because those are for PROFESSIONAL stuff.


You have viewers and represent yourself. You need to listen to sir scoots on rollcall about personal media and how there is no difference between personal and professional. You represent your brand manner up or get out.


Never mind man. If you can't see the differences then I got nothing for you. Sorry you don't understand the difference between a rage post about Steam not functioning (which has NEVER functioned right on my comp), and a statement passed off as fact on one of the single most influential shows in the entire scene hosted by a some of the most influential members of the community.

Well done with the questions. I really enjoyed all the answers so far.

Yeah ok just get this guy to ask questions next week.

Find out if he can repeat.

If so, see if you can incorporate him into the show somehow.

Scoots is obviously the last word on the intricacies of social networking.

(I <3 u Scoots)


Don't know if it's sarcasm or not, but the amount of sponsors EG has been able to claim and Scoots expertise in the area is one of the top. He knows how to represent his brand really well and get his players to do so as well.

You refuse to completely address the appoint that you brought up. In your business there can't be separation from personal and professional, you represent your employer and yourself ALL the time, no matter what. So good luck to you and your en devours and hopefully maybe you listened to something and learned, but what ever.

It is appaling that you talk of professionalism but does not realize that how relevant this is. No one is arguing whether SOTG is in the wrong, but whether it's worth to risk the brand you represent towards a show that at least 8.5k people like. You need to ask yourself whether you want to be known as "the guy who runs that awesome tournament with koreans" or "the guy who bitches non stop at SOTG"

This is because I really like you and what you do, others may just unfollow outright.

I constantly praise SoTG almost every week they have one as well as provide links and such. This week was a problem. I don't know how one day of bitching (and what 10 posts?) is "bitching non stop".

The bitching may be a bit excessive, but the criticism is fair, IMO.

Lobber is still mad that he got his grandmaster taken off him when Blizz fixed last season's GM league.
