As for the first post, I'm actually Irish.
Just shut up.

Fuck off man. It's bad enough living in Northern Ireland where we have to put up with nationalist nonsense on a day-to-day without having it on Team Liquid.

I just saw in the name of the father starring 3 time academy award winning actor, daniel day-lewis and i must say, it's a really touchy subject and that I understand your frustration with people talking about that stuff here.
especially if its in-correct.

I dont remember JRecco ever being bm. Can anyone elaborate?
Also, your argument is a joke (hopefully).

How is it an insult to all English people, he asked for his national flag, not a burning St. Georges cross.

All right, you might be correct on that. But try to remember there are those of use who don't hate on players for playing to win. It is just a LOT OF EFFORT to shout down haters in the community.

He didn't demand the scottish flag, he told the TL admins he didn't care and so they gave him the scottish flag, presumably for some braveheart vibe? using that as a reason to hate upon him is silly
and @Wombat I've never seen you at an i-Series or any british event, so how can you claim that JR has no mechanics to speak of? Just because youve taken a bit more interest in him in a few online events doesn't mean that you're suddenly a world-leading expert on 1. how zerg mechanics work and 2. how JR matches up to other zerg players in the scene

Who gives a fuck about who comes from where anyway, such a pointless argument

Stop with the useless derail about nationality. It's not relevant and it's ridiculous. Thanks.

Whats with all the people dropping the "patch zerg" bombs all over the place, seriously its extreme disrespect to someones hard work to be classed as a "patch *insert race here".
Guy performed well at UKWC, unfortunately it seems there has been some issues going on here and it doesn't look pretty for dignitas.
Hopefully this brings new potential to both parties involved.
As a fellow Scot, charge on JR

How is it unacceptable for us to have our own flag next to our name? instead of the Union Jack?...
Watch Tennis, when Andy Murray is winning he is considered "British", when he losing he is considered "Scottish".
Its bullshit to call it unacceptable for us to have a Scottish flag.

Way to totally ignore 2 posts above yours telling everyone to stop. Why keep feeding a flame war?
As for Jrecco, any hints or anything regarding where he might be going? I always enjoed watching him play, and remember the series vs whitera where he kinda blew up into a big name.

I am very interested who they are going to get in his stead, Naniwa hinted on his stream a couple of weeks ago that he would soon join a team.
|
Naniwa will not join dignitas

I really hope JR gets picked up by another team soon, he's a talented guy that should be a good addition to any team.
|
This guy is not going to make it big in the future. There are plenty of good zerg players who are about billion times more talented than he is.

I agree he probably won't get anywhere, but still he's about a billion times more talented than you either way.
