The rules were stated, the penalties were stated. What if someone zz's, and his opponent, content with assuming he won, stops everything hes doing, and gg's in return, but then that zz guy pauses the game, and claims zz meant something else. There needs to be a line drawn somewhere, and Kespa just put their standards really high. I feel it is more professional on their part. Rules are rules, follow them and there won't be any problems.

That way there could be some double standarts. Same situations being called differently by different refs. That could piss off some teams.

The rules should be modified to be more broad. Considering they banned chatting ingame, its obvious that whenever a player types something, there's either a problem or he's giving up. They should make it so that the referees have a call on which one it is, regardless of what the player types.

The way they have it set right now is basically an auto-ban feature where if the progamer presses enter -> any key sequence but "gg" or "ppp" -> enter, they're disqualified, which is utterly retarded. Are the referees so dumb that they can only identify those two codes?

How it should be: If the player types gg, ww, zizi yo or whatever other common "forfeiting" sentences, the referee assumes he's given up. If he types anything BUT these words, the referee pauses the game and goes check out why has he sent such message. If it's anything other than a technical problem, then the referee may disqualify him.

Point is, disqualification should be given only when the intent of the player was just messing around with the chat function for no reason (which in my opinion shouldn't be banned at all either, but whatever).

rule isn't that ridiculous. the problem is the harshness of the penalty. a warning was certainly enough not a fukn DQ

I guess no one recognizes the name Chang Seok Jun - he's Bassy, oldschool Zerg progamer who took down big names like Garimto, Boxer, NaDa, TheMarine, and Grrr in his prime. It's unfortunate that he did this to Leta.

I still don't know how you recall ancient details about obscure progamers in such detail.

But yeah, an ex-pro doing this seems... odd. You'd think he'd have some sympathy.

Ok guys, i have to write a comment on this one now after i saw all this dumb comments in this thread and in the LR:
"you can't know what ur typing when you don't see the monitor" ????
ARE YOU SERIOUS????
Sorry, i don't want to insult you, but such comments speak of a lack of intelligence.

since when people type with a MONITOR???? You type with a KEYBOARD and ur FINGERS. Nothing else. 95% of the people don't even need EYES to type! They press the buttons on the KEYBOARD with their FINGERS. Even the 5% rest of the people don't need a MONITOR either because they use the EYES to see how often they press which buttons. The most "unskilled" writers can stare at their KEYBOARD and COUNT how often they press a button. still no MONITOR needed at all.

To the people who say "spellcheck": .....omg. you know the average reaction time of a human is about 1 second? So do you really think leta types ONE LETTER PER SECOND????
Ofc you type faster than that and you cannot spellcheck every letter before you press the next button, which includes the ENTER BUTTON ! It's almost not possible to stop pressing the enter button when you realize you have pressed one "p" too much. The MONITOR DOESNT MATTER AT ALL !!!!! Thats why you often see "i go to shcool" "*school". Because the message is already sent when you realize you fucked up a word, if its the last word in a sentence. And in Leta's case it even was the last LETTER of his message !

Also i've read:


....DUDE, WHY ARE YOU LYING????? KeSPA DIDN't DQ THE WHOLE TEAM !!!!!! JUST ONE PLAYER !!!


I hate it SO MUCH when people fucking LIE and state WRONG INFO or stupid comments which all don't matter just to exaggerate a situation. Please stop that.....


Also i just read:

This again fucks up all this stupid monitor comments, BUT don't even think about this point now. The reasons i mentioned above are 100% enough to clarify, why this monitor comments are stupid and useless.
So i don't expect much constructive replies to this but IF you want to reply, DO NOT mention this last point like "oh ok it wasn't clear the monitor was just flickering, so thats why i posted that" because thats not the reason i posted this.

'pp' means 'pause please'. WTF is 'ppp'? Everyone always uses 'pp'.

They made a typing error setting up the rules?
