First of all, I had originally hoped that the my post regarding QuanticDestiny's racial slur would stay open until Quantic would appropriately punish him for his unwarranted behaviour. Since the post is closed, I guess this is as good place as any to reflect on my thoughts over this incident.

I am surprised that most of posts were simply asking me to "grow a pair" or "Destiny is Destiny and it's nothing new". In the replay of the game in question, he recognized my ID as Korean, saw me typing Korean GGs to him, and proceeded to call me "gook". Obviously what he wrote was racially motivated, knowing that I am Korean.

As a community, are we really going to condone a public figure (whether he likes it or not, or whether I want to admit it or not, this is true), such as Destiny, who draws in thousands of viewers, to openly racially insult other people in streams in public? As public entertainer, he must be held to a socially acceptable standards and responsibilities. For him to think that he can say shit like that freely to others is preposterous.

Also for those of you who keep PMing me about this replay,
http://www.sctemple.com/replay/165934/#Chat
Do some fucking research before assuming things to be true. That account in gold league currently, whereas my account is high masters at the moment. Unless you want to believe a gold leaguer has similar MMR and can be matched vs Destiny in ladder. I find it funny that Destiny is providing this replay to support his argument in his reddit post. Like I said on my original post, I have raged in ladder games just like everyone else, and since I used to stream, those people who have watched me play would know. But to verbally attack people with racial slurs is something that I have never done and I will never do. There are boundaries in a society we live in and this is totally out of line.

I will be watching to see if Quantic chooses to let this incident slide, or come out with an appropriate response to discipline QuanticDestiny.

Just cause you use complete sentences and try to use flawed logic to justify your case doesn't mean you're right, you're just as closed minded as the person you're persecuting. Whatever happens will happen whether you whine about it publicly or not. Seriously you need to just get over it and go back to laddering.

Yes, he must be punished. Why should Destiny be treated any other way than an employee of a corporation?

If you call a co-worker something derogatory then you can bet you would face consequences. Destiny has been overlooked because "it's Destiny". And getting on Wardens nuts because he's the first to call out on it is ridiculous, why should he get a different response when you were all lighting the pitchforks when it was Orb?

Ya ... no. I don't think you know what means 'persecuted'. And it won't change if he doesn't whine about that.

I think he had a right to respond to the allegations Destiny leveled against him for using racially offensive language.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Really? lol are you that offended that he called you a gook or do you just want to see somebody you dislike "get in trouble"? Just get over it.

im not suggesting anything, so don't blame me:

nothing will ever happen unless you hit the pocketbook. Destiny (or any other player for that matter) could probably get away with saying anything at all as long as he brought in the money. if you want change, then you have to hit the money-flow. then it doesn't matter if he actually didn't say anything, he'll most likely be gone.

its sad, its terrible, it shouldn't work that way: but it does. cash is and will always be king in these situations. threads like this are only going to draw in the trolls. not that i necessarily think that anything should be done, i actually don't care either way. but just saying: you want results? hit the checkbook.

This blog is an extreme case of bitching. I suggest you man the fuck up and let Quantic decide.

The reason he is a public figure is because he pulls in thousands of viewers. The reason he pulls in thousands of viewers is because his personality (including his use of language). So, yes, the community has decided on this one and they are willing to accept him. If they weren't willing to accept him then he wouldn't have views and wouldn't be prominent. Sorry.

I'm sure Quantic was(is) fully aware of destiny's past and his current actions.

Is this thread really necessary? The decision is theirs, we've already had a 140 page thread on the matter....
