okok, you're right. no more figurative use of language. we have to be very very strict with our language so that people don't argue over obvious meanings.

apparently you are too dumb to understand that words have multiple meanings and don't always have to be used 100% literally
Words can have multiple meanings but they in no way stole Huk from Liquid. All you're going to do is argue in circles about a words meaning when you know (unless you're retarded) you're using it wrong.
I misunderstood what you meant about Huk being a free agent, but my point still stands. Every player that has transferred to another team was stolen by your logic. Do you realize how stupid that sounds?

travis is really mad that arguably THE best foreigner getting on a new team is hyped?
Is it because it's on this website? Is only TL allowed to hype stuff here, being a monopoly on the SC2 community viewership? You don't see how it lacks tact to gloat over your gains when it's someone else's equal loss and there was nothing they could do to prevent it? I love how stupid what you say is considering team liquid did nothing to censor the hype.
All this faux-bleeding-heart crap for TL is simply ridiculous, if anything, TL has always made it clear that they place a significant amount of importance on growing the scene and providing an accessible means with which to release hype and information, hence, the unparalleled TL forums. The fact that TL did nothing to censor these announcements ought to speak for itself.

.......what? HuK's contract with Liquid expired, hence why they were trying to negotiate new terms/salary etc. EG picked up HuK AFTER his contract with liquid expired and he WAS a free agent.

Nausea-inspiring. My only hope is that HuK crushes Idra so horribly and repeatedly in practice that Idra retires.
Seriously though, this is just sad. Talk about selling out.

I was atleast thrilles cause of this, really shocked, I never thought that Huk would join forces with EG. The 3 days hyping worked for me stealing is semantics. they bought him out. they used capabilities liquid couldn't match, it could be argued that's stealing - "taking by force".

Actually on second thought maybe that isn't purposeful planning because that still sounds like something EG would do. On August 17 2011 02:34 darmousseh wrote:On August 17 2011 02:30 travis wrote:

If they talked to naz it was just so they could buy out his contract, but I don't see how that has anything to do with how they announce it.

It is EG I guess and people are always irrational in their hate when it comes to them. It's semantics. You've never heard "steal" used that way? So Liquid stole Huk (as well as all their other players) when they signed him a year ago? And no I've never heard steal used in that way, that's retarded. I thought huk was a free agent? And anyways I don't think you're getting it lol. you've really never heard steal use that way? how old are you? we're at the store buying cucumbers. there is one cucumber left. you see it. I run up and grab it. you: "you stole that cucumber right out from me.". we're at an auction, we both want a puma doll. some guy bids 10 thousand. you make a gigantic bid, 5 million! "100 billion!", I shout. I stole the puma doll from you. If he was a free agent how could they fucking steal him. That's your word, not mine. You say it's semantics when in reality it's just you using a charged word to try and further discredit a team you dislike. What? Are you retarded? Huk was a free agent when liquid signed him... not when EG took him from liquid, lol
And if someone beat me at an auction that's not stealing, that's winning an auction you buttfrustrated little boy (Sorry, thought I should bring age into it too). That analogy was weak.
apparently you are too dumb to understand that words have multiple meanings and don't always have to be used 100% literally In professional sports, a free agent is a player whose contract with a team has expired and who is thus eligible to sign with another club or franchise. Hence Huk was not a free agent... .......what? HuK's contract with Liquid expired, hence why they were trying to negotiate new terms/salary etc. EG picked up HuK AFTER his contract with liquid expired and he WAS a free agent.
EG had to buy out HuK's remaining contract, so the liquid contract wasn't expired.
Edit: lol, man i'm slow

so there team was shit and now they just buy everyone who wins something.

It's the context it's used in. You should take your own advice.

Nausea-inspiring. My only hope is that HuK crushes Idra so horribly and repeatedly in practice that Idra retires.
Seriously though, this is just sad. Talk about selling out.
Why so bitter?

I knew this was coming like why would Idra shook Huk's hand if he didn't shook chrucher hand lol

I really hope that EG is going to have something a bit more substantial set up in Korea than just 3 guys in an apartment. Regardless I think this is exciting news and HuK deserves it.
