Upon reading this I expect I will be paid very soon? Interested in what all this about  Anyway, gratz desrow. Hope you do well. Really thankful for your stream, hard to find a protoss player who consistently commentates while he plays these days. Plus such a reliable schedule so I can muse over your strategy while i drink my morning coffee before I hit the ladders. glhf, do well @ MLG | ||

I paid my own way and since then trying to get the money has been hard. They have sent me 23 Nov 2010 - 10 euros 30 Nov 2010 - 15 euros 5 Mar 2011 - 10 euros 13 May 2011 - 10 euros Out of the total of 90 euros they owed me, they say they will pay. I've just been watching DesRow's stream and apparently he is getting a salary aswell as LAN sponsorship, so I'm wondering what's taking RAGE so long... | ||

My biggest issue with desRow is that when promoting himself, he seems to basically not give a shit who he puts down as well as often overhyping himself to the point that he is bothering other players. I have no problems with him succeeding and I am not "jealous" of his stream popularity in any way, but it is unacceptable to step on others toes as much as he has on the route to mediocre stardom. The fact remains that he is still mediocre for a full-time professional player and I personally feel a bit insulted that he is basically now receiving more team/sponsor benefits than me. I don't mind too much, though it does drive me to improve and do what I can to make a name for myself in the eSports world. ........ - Nick Hmmmmm..... sounds like someone is jealous to me.... | ||

I don't really have a problem with people getting more sponsor benefits than me, but I don't feel like it is deserved and therefore I feel insulted. You would be surprised at the number of top players (players that I'm sure even desRow would agree are above him) don't receive personal salaries from their teams. I suppose if you look at it that way I am jealous, but I guess it just goes to show how much self-promotion can do for you. | ||

Let me just make it clear, that what you're doing is very unprofessional. You say RAGE owes you money ? Take it up with me, although I haven't been part of RAGE when you were, currently I handle everything that;s related to Starcraft 2. Throwing shit at the organization in a thread will get you nowhere, and if you`d really want to get payed, i`m pretty sure IM`ing me would have gotten you more further than this. I guess attention is worth much more to you. I`m very disapponted at how even former team members of desRow badmouth and disclose events that were clearly happening while the players were under contract with their teams. Attention is worth more to some than professionalism. | ||

I know, its your god damn immaturity, im the same age as you and i would never, ever say that i feel insulted that somebody else was getting sponsrs and expanding the esports community, you are really putting a bad name on younger players trying to get to professional level. You need to wake up and realise that, no matter how much of a dick you are, you are an example and "role model" to some younger players. Now grow some balls and stop whining. Oh, and BTW desrow, congratulations on your new team! User was warned for this post | ||

Either desrow needs to tell his fans to shut the fuck up or this needs to be locked | ||

Oh, and BTW desrow, congratulations on your new team! Really, lol. Poke has every single right to feel pissed off about that. Desrow is not anywhere near as good as poke, yet he is only recieveing sponsors. that would piss anyone off. Hell it pisses off many players even ones better than poke here. there are teams and player far more deserving of that sponsorship money. I see players that work their butts off and get nowhere because of players like desrow who get the money for only streaming. Just think of the better places that money could go. thats poke's problem here. And I feel for him. He really derserves sponsorships yet gets little. Its like giving sponsorship to a Bronze player and not a master's player. Which one had more pontential, the masters. yet the bronze one is a jerk and people only watch him to see him play poorly. doesn't make sense. | ||

Attention is worth more to some than professionalism. I've been pm-ing Dmitriy for 9 months. He hasn't referred me to anyone else, only giving promises of "I'll have the money in 2 weeks, I didn't receive the money I was promised". What am I meant to do? 9 MONTHS I've sat on this egg. Should I have waited years? If you are the person I should be talking to it is not my fault he hasn't informed me that the "person to talk to" has changed. | ||
