i think abbrev. used in specific topic/thread is warranted and most posters use them appropriately. Why? because we know only certain players playing HK open and/or with pics shown. To me, i automatically interpret xx as xie xing fan, not xia xuanze. Also, i use abbrev of xxf and xzx in generalized topic thread to eliminate any confusion. Do i make cents
You said is absolutely right. Always allowed to use initials, anyhow, using full name means a little bit work for writers, but a lot easier for multiple number of readers. Your post is alive example, my example of XX means Xie Xin, a rising men's single star from China. but it could also be interpreted as Xie Xingfang, or Xia Xuanze.
Great shots of the players close ups. Funny pic of Cheung. Too bad i was not there. Hopefully next time i can join u guys.
oh come off it....XX could *possibily" be XXZ or XXF but surely you'd notice which one it is and personally i think the more well known players can and sometimes should be abbreviated, while the lesser known players should have their names in full, such as Li Yu and Li Yi. of course, a well known player to me may not be known at all to another and vice versa. however, red and cheung are not writing an article, just posting their pics (of relatively well known players in my opinion) so I see no wrong in their use of abbreviations. ps, u can always ask who is who that way the "problem" players are identified for the future
i really enjoy those off and on action candid shots by red00, they contain more details of moments and items that badminton players like to see.
