Combat seems to get a LOT more hate than players like LastShadow, Dino, and even the recent fiasco with ilovejessgill or whatever his/her name was.

Thats because the other players are actually good.

But I'm sure he helped people when he was a running back. This doesn't mean we can't say that his murders are wrong. Why are you supporting murder?

well he screwed it up badly, but the year long flaming that Hot_Bid was talking about in the previous thread is just not necessary. I agree that the forgiveness must come later but think about it the other way. Sooner or later you will all become parents, and when your kids lie to you about smth which they eventually will do, you will most likely beat them, forbid them to watch tv for a week and thats it. If your so called love to the game and to fair play is so strong just focus on this and stop gangbanging ot combat-ex. Sure he did smth childish but you have no reason not to act mature yourself...

It's like no one knows what an analogy is since I see this retort every time one is used.

a computer game that brings tons of competition that people want to be fair, and often times money is involved in MANY events/clan leagues.

Except this isn't murder, its playing a fucking computer game. Would you like me to provide an example that is less serious than murder, and we can debate which is more severe, abusing on ICCup or taking steroids in high school sports (he's helping the fans so i don't care!), or cheating in high school (he's helping his friends get better grades and get into college so i dont care!), etc.
But thank you for pointing out that taking freewins on a ladder is not actually killing someone, I was not aware of this difference when I made the analogy. I can't believe I didn't see that.

So true... this is one of those knee jerk forum auto responses people think make sense.

Do you really not see the difference here?
Also, when someone acts a certain way, gets caught, and then doesn't change how he acts at all, how can you expect people to forgive him? Plus, a year of flaming and this was his first real "apology" for it, and even in the apology it looks like he's trying to martyr himself and make it look like TL is unnecessarily attacking him and forcing him to stop making videos. It's ridiculous.

That's a great way to see the bright side of things. Combat is a tard but at least he contributes and keeping TL clean from other tards who follow him :p

he's an average player that markets himself to be something great and gets a following of new players and then uses builds/strats that only work vs low level players so he doesn't really help at all

Combat-Ex was caught abusing two weeks ago. This is a year-long flaming.
