Poll: Petition
(Vote): I Agree - Jaedong and progamers deserve better
(Vote): I Disagree - what KeSPA is doing is fine
Even if it's small we at TL.net should do something. Anything.
It feels like - no is - a betrayal to stand by and do nothing while a player we have all come to know and respect is treated like trash.
We all watch his games, whether we are fans of SK, Fox, Khan, or any other team or player, we all know and love n.die_Jaedong.
TL.net is made up of people, you and me, and while we like to joke around and have fun watching FBH, at the end of the day we are all passionately behind each and every progamer. There is something special about Professional Star Craft. When we watch Boxer, KTY or Jaedong, you know it and I know it.
All I can suggest is a petition against this truly unreasonable treatment, before it sets a precedent and throttles our beloved world of progaming. We all sign it and someone who knows KeSPA or Fomos can show them that the fans of Jaedong and any other progamer under KeSPA are not going to roll over and flake out on players while they are going through their toughest times.
It's not saying "we want to make Jaedong stay a progamer for the rest of his life"
but rather, "we support his career - if you **** with Jaedong or any other progamers you will hear about it from us"
It probably won't do much, or anything, but doing this I can stand a little taller.
What about you?

I can't say I "support" but I think it could be a very good strategy for his life.

If I see enough people interested (if there are not I will lose all respect for TL members) then I will start a petition thread, though it would be nice if someone with authority did it.

from this point of view, ok, signed
|
It would be a shame if the best player ever would just retire
|
Not that I think it will do much, but still better than nothing. I support this.

We have no means of putting pressure on Kespa. Why would they listen to a horde of foreigners who have no idea about what's going on behind the scenes?

Am I the only one here who thinks that Jaedong leaving Starcraft won't be as detrimental as everyone thinks it will?

I don't see how that's relevant. It's about supporting Jaedong and the rights of progamers under KeSPA, it's the principle of it if nothing else. I would like to see that people don't just talk about how much the Star Craft scene means to them but show it, even if it's through something as small as this.
If nothing is said or done things can only get worse.
I'm trying to get this across - Jaedong can do what he wants, but whatever that is we support him.
It's the situation KeSPA's rules have created that appalls me as a fan and supporter of progamers and eSports.

woot? no epic match between jaedong and boxer?
|
Jaedong should have a choice between retirement and a fair contract, not a choice between retirement and an unfair contract. Same goes for all progamers.
Signed.

jaedong should start playing poker
