Hello everyone! Maybe the title caught your eye. And yes, I am angry!!! Want to know why? Ok firstly, people shouldn't use my name "yannie" or "Yan Yan" to talk to badminton players! I hear many players say: "Hey Yan, I got regards from you through someone" or.. "Yan, I got hi from you through this person." But the truth is, I didn't ask anyone to say hi to any player from me! I have no respect for those people who keep on misusing my name! Shame on you! Maybe you have seen my name on the forum, or read some of my posts. But that doesn't give you the right to tell players I say hi. IF YOU WANT TO TALK TO ANY PLAYER, THERE IS NO NEED TO SAY HI THROUGH ANYBODY. You don't have to say hi through anybody, just cuz you want to find something to talk with the player! Or you want to get close to him/her. It's damn annoying! Hope people who do this will stop immediately. Thanks. yannie PS. I don’t have to say hi to those players through anybody. I have their contacts and they have mine.
Pity you, yan. Sometimes some ppl try to get closer to you juz becoz they wanna get closer to the players.. now you learn something again Cool down little yan
:-( I guess its the flip-side of being a celebrity I undestand you totally.. And I guess many pro players share the same problem... Thats, why it is sometimes, good to be anonyomus /Twobeer
Please dont use those stupid idea to try to talk to players!!! shame of you! As yan mentioned, she doesn’t have to say hi to those players through anybody as she has all their contacts and they have hers!
Hi (!) Yanyan.. don't la so angry... afters not leng lui... .. you can count on me for not doing that.. simply cuz' I dunno any of the players... and no.. not even 'close enough' to say anything to them... and i can say Hi to you anytime
Hello people in concern, Like ants always sez, just treat the players like normal people and u might get to know them better. Start honest so it doesn't come back to sting u in the butt!!! haha poor yan yan
yan yan..... don't be angry *hugzzz* just ignore those ppl who dont have the guts to talk to players and misused of ur name just to get what they want... no point u get upset with those ppl... it just gonna waste ur energy! ;-)
Its actually very rude to do that. Using people's name to know someone. I know how she felt. I was in that situation before. Please guys give her a break.
There is no problem in saying hi. But its rude to approach someone and then tell him/her that "Mr A says hi to you". When Mr A didnt ask him to do so. Im sure that person wanted to start a conversation with an individual. But just dont know how.. so he/she resort in using peoples name to do so. If want to know a person... use a better pickup line or improve on our social skills.
TwoBeer: good post and I agree. This is one of the problems of being well known and/or connected. Yannie, try not to be too upset; after all, people are people. We should just hope after you making this post, they will cease and desist.
Damn..i know how it goes.. The Moron: Hi Chen Jin. I'm yannie's friend and she asked me to say hi to you. Chen Jin: Wha..?? Yannie? You know yannie also? How is she? Is she ur friend? The Moron: (excited! Chen Jin is talking to me! I hope everyone is staring at us now! And later i can ask for his shirt, if i'm lucky..his number!!) sorry that's pretty overboard but i'm sure it happens Which is wrong cuz yannie never ask them to do so. In fact, yannie doesn't even know them! It's rude. And it just shows how shallow & desperate these people are just to talk to players. It's pathetic.
ah, well, i guess some people will just use that as an ice-breaker, though of course it doesn't make it right. i guess it's possible whoever's doing it doesn't know that they're pissing yannie off, hopefully that'll stop now. people will always try to find something in common with other people when talking for the first time, yannie just appears to be an easy link, which is rather unfair for her.
hahahaha.. good example erin.. now i can feel how yannie feels.. yeah those moron r using her name to start a conversation wit those players.. naturally those players who know yan will ask bout her n ask whether "r u yannie friend?'.. WTF!! just go ahead n talk personally wit those players!!! pity yannie..
