Why do people defend Testie? I don't get it. His rep is ruined because he's admitted to hacking before, and was caught again after. Why would you want to defend a guy like this?
Even if he has stopped hacking, why are so many people so certain that he doesn't hack and are willing to go so far to defend him? What kind of proof do his haters have for him hacking? How about what proof do his supporters have that he isn't?
I don't think that it's right to keep assuming he's hacking, but I do think it's wrong to assume he's not hacking as well. The pro-Testie people seem to have this weird idea that the burden of proof is on people who think he hacks, when it's just as much on the ones who assert he doesnt.
Like most people have said, who cares if he still hacks? There's no way to know for certain, so give it up. BUT, if people are opposed to the idea of playing with a proven ex-hacker (again, this "ex" status is still in question), then it is fully justified and reasonable.
Would you gamble with your money against a person who has been proven to have cheated before? I didn't think so.
Reason he is defended is b/c NOONE HAS PROOF~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HIm losing in wcg doesnt prove shit at all
