Haha, this is fantastically coincidental. I just bought a new computer with Kingston RAM, MSI Video card, Razer mouse, and Thermaltake Keyboard and was already going to write sponsors. At least, so I told myself. Now I have no excuse! Thanks OP!

Great idea! Should be a sticky.

Not sure if I'd like it being stickied, not that it's up to me, but still. As it is, I barely have time to add team lists, I can't guarantee that I'd be able to keep it updated as I think would be expected from a sticky. Also, making it a sticky might cross the line into making the thread feel like an obligation, all I want for it is to be a suggestion I'm glad to hear a lot of people in here who, like me, like their products, but never had this idea before and are willing to do something positive. It means the thread has already been a success. Thank you people!

I dont see the XMG-Guys in there. They are private sponsoring XlorD (Some of the wc3-players should know him). I think they should be thanked, too! Also, TakeTV got lots of sponsors that should be listed. HCS is awesome, let us keep it that way!

And without them there would perhaps even not be a HSC, so they definitely deserve to be in this list.

I don't understand the negativity with people about this whole thread idea, i personally see it as a great thing. For the next few weeks (using EG as an example) the EG people will get probably at least 500 Emails thanking them giving them support and some criticism.

If you worked for EG woudn't you be happy to go to work in the morning and have your boss tell you that all these emails are from fans.

Money is good but you can't buy happiness, letting the sponsors know that we care on the other side and we support them makes everyone happier.

The irony about all this is that the white knights, trolls and haters now have a very nice place to find sponsor names whenever they want to complain.

As some have said before, buy the products, then contact sponsors on how you bought a certain product thanks to the team/player promoting it.

Its more good than an random positive email...

I want to add that this probably hurts the credibility of the Community and future actions where emailing sponsors and thanking them for the stuff they do might actually be due.

you think a bunch of people appreciating and liking a company is worthless? they know not every esports fan is going to buy their product when they sponsor a team, but the more people like you and hear about you the more people are going to buy stuff from you. and those people who do appreciate them now but cant or wont buy a product are still more likely to do so in the future when they have a need or more money or whatever.

My razer banshee has proved to be really bad, and purchased a Siberia last week. My razer keyboard is also iffy.. when it goes belly-up, I have a G6V2 on my to-buy list.

well theres also the fact that companies that sponsor EG just inherently have superior products. but thats neither here nor there.


I do like EG and a lot of the sponsors, but as far as at least keyboards go steel series is still just a kids toy compared to the real mechanical keyboards out there. And I too have owned razer keyboards and decided never again. I seriously considered getting a 6gv2, but then was told by quite a few people to look into companies who specialize in mechanical keyboards rather than video game oriented companies who happen to make a keyboard.

I do support the OP though. it's a good positive movement to counteract all the witch hunting that is done by reddit that hurts SC2.

On a side note, I wish there was a way for some influential people to contact all the esports sponsors and tell them to flat out ignore every bit of negative feedback they get from anyone associated with reddit since all they do is witch hunt and start drama.

I really don't think those people read most of the messages . In the best case scenario, they would have some bot that would filter the emails by the categories they sponsor and increment some counter : say Sc2ThankYouNotes+1, or FootballThankYouNotes+1 .
Then, maybe, your efforts will be quantified
Nice initiative, however , not really jumping on the bandwagon.

Efforts like this can have a significant impact. Corporations, even large ones love to collect this sort of feedback and data. It can have a positive effect. It isn't the sort of thing that a CEO would ever read or any of the higher ups, but in the marketing department a large amount of fan or community support can be just the thing to continue programs or even expand them.

I'll be contacting Red Bull and letting them know that the only reason I drink their drink is because they are sponsoring Startale.

Great initative. It's great you also think of the independently sponsored players like ViOlet and Naniwa. I was wondering why Grubby isn't listed here though? I believe he was one of the first players who decided to go independent and he is managing really well!

His sponsors are Twitch, BenQ and Sony Xperia USA (Xperia Ion) ! ^^

I love the idea behind this post. Sponsors mainly want the conversion of course, but if they realize people take the time to thank them they probably have a better idea of how much their sponsoring is having effect. (especially to provide perspective to the very small minority who repeatedly mail sponsors post-drama)

Pretty much this. Even if you thank the sponsors if there not making money they don't care. The only reason they respond to negative feedback is because they might lose customers.
