The people aren't "pros". Yet. But otherwise, I really have no problem with this. | ||

When I see people type "pro" I always sit there drumming my fingers expecting them to finish the word, as "pro" represents the prefix meaning for. It's blatantly obvious if all you do is look at the definitions of the words. A professional athlete is an athlete who reached excellence in his field, and is paid to do so. A pro athlete is something that is done for athletes. A pronoun isn't an extremely high skill noun, is it? A program isn't a gram that gets paid to have mass is? KeSPA is, by definition, "pro-gamer." However, Jaedong is a professional gamer. For the love of Buddha, don't be lazy and type out the full word. It's only a few extra letters and you save my sanity and your dignity. It blows my mind how people can't even learn the English language properly when it's their first language. ever heard of slang? new worlds develop and some words develop new meanings you can't stop it, no use fighting it because you'll go crazy over it if it makes sense, let it be is it logically possible for "pro" to also mean "professional"? yes, so why object? this has been around for a long time now, you're a bit late if you wanted to stop it | ||

Also I've completely forgotten about the other thread, and this isn't good enough to stand on its own (debatable if it's good enough even considering the other thread) | ||
