I would just name him MarinePrime or MoMarinesMoProblems.
i lol'd on that one  but honestly...something like marineprime would actually make sense....or at least give him his own identity...
the 4th question was kinda funny...i'm pretty sure he originally chose his name on bnet to fake to some naive opponents that he's the emperor

Looks like you're not getting it. Has nothing to do with insulting the real boxer (while it is insulting, it's not worth caring about), and everything to do with how utterly stupid it is to maintain an imitation name when you're trying legitimize yourself as a recognizable progamer. It's just lame, period.
That's your opinion

Boxer isn't even the full name, it's Slayers_Boxer which realBoxer already has. You're all talking like taking a name that the Boxer or Slayers name are sacred and aren't allowed by anyone other than the Emperor himself.
Get a hold of yourself people, think what realBoxer would be thinking.
"Here is a young and very talented Terran player who is naming himself after me because I am his biggest idol. How should I feel?
I know! I must be angry because he is insulting me! How dare he take what can only be used by me!!!"
But I'm getting nowhere. When the Emperor himself doesn't care but fanboys do......then you know you're not going to be able to say anything that will make them think differently Looks like you're not getting it.

Looks like your not getting it. Boxer doesn't care. It's an ID, get over it.

First, I want to say to anyone who thinks SlayersBoxeR is fine with this that they are naive fools. OF COURSE he won't say in public that he doesn't like it. Of course, he doesn't want to look like a jerk or an arrogant. Because if he did complain about it, everyone would give him shit. Especially being a Korean, and you know how awkward they can be with that kind of stuff.
Until this point it was fine. But now it's starting to get old. No, I am not butthurt...to tell the truth, I don't even care about this crap. It's just making it's way in annoying-territory. I am BoxeR. I will be FoxeR. I will be OptimusPrime. I will not be OptimusPrime.... Why doesn't he just answer "I'll change name when I feel like it, give me a fucking break".

This is so pathetic. Change your fucking name you unorigianal prick. Yeah your second name isnt orginal either but at least someone with the exact same name that had it first isnt competing! God damn im sorry but Foxer is just stupid.

Can you then, oh mighty un-naive fool, explain for what logical reason would realBoxer have to be angry?

Why does it matter if he changes his name or not? No one cared about Yellow[ArnC].

When people arent even calling you by your name then that is a bad fucking sign. Yellow{arnc} Played When Yellow wasrnt that great anymore so they never competed with each other. But now we have 2 guys in the same tournament and it confuses the shit out of people. Not anymore tho because guess what? We gave him a different fucking name.
|
In the opening ceremony of the finals he said that he'd change his name if he won. He didn't win, so he's not changing his name yet. Not a big deal.
|
You don't have to use OptimusPrime but change away from Boxer for fucks sake. Even if you are a better player in SC2, show some respect for the person who is a huge reason for you making even a single cent off a video game.

SlayerSBoxeR is a, if not the, SC1 legend. He's doing a come back in SC2 and everyone is tuning in to see how he does. Then this kid shows up. Put yourself in SlayerS' shoes... That cheesy kid:
1- Uses your name (At first it's cute, but now it's just riding the popularity wave of the original one) 2- Uses your race 3- Is better than you 4- Plays in the same tournament 5- Most importantly, doesn't plan on changing name any time soon
If you really think he doesn't care at all about this situation, then I don't know what else to tell you. It's just common sense...It's just, like I said, him not wanting to look like an asshole in front of his fans.

soooo FoxeR it is for this next GSL season!

Here's point 6 that you completely forgot to mention
6 - Worships SlayerS_BoxeR as his idol and calls himself Boxer out of respect
But as other people have said, why would he care about this? He stills holds the name "SlayerS_BoxeR", "BoxeR" was just a shorthand name we call him. That and he has around 300k to spend on himself and a new team, you'd think that takes precedence over someone taking part of his name because he respects you

He'll still be Foxer for us, so it doesnt matter

I have no doubt that FoxeR chose this name out of respect. I am merely saying that, at some point, he has to move on and make a name for himself and I am certain that SlayerSBoxeR feels the same way for (some of) the reasons I listed. That guy cannot honestly be thinking he has to win GSL in order to be worthy of a new ID... I won't argue about this anymore, as I guess you have to draw the line for yourself as to when this stops being cute and starts being annoying.

If SLayerSBoxeR had a problem with BoxeR's name, all he would have to do is ask him politely to change it. BoxeR would then change it in an instant, but SlayerSBoxeR obviously does not mind, so you can all stfu now.

Don't Koreans identify the players by their real names anyhow? At least that is how it was in the BW pro scene. The commentators there pretty much just say the players real life name at all times. I can see how keeping the name BoxeR wouldn't be such a big deal for Koreans.
