He's talking about people like you who see a thread with an OP you read one line of and post flame after flame on.

It's a video game man relax, also some parents don't let their kids play violent video games, should we all use their moral compass and not play SC2. The fact some groups might be super uptight shouldn't stop people from doing PRIVATE streams where they act casually.
There is something called freedom and I'm 99% sure djWHEAT can give a shit less if .1% of people watching are offended by something silly.
Instead of complaining, simply don't watch a private stream in a casual atmosphere.

Sir,
The college I am referring to is the medical college or board of your state, province or jurisdiction - not your pre-university education after high school.
For example, let me quote you the charter of such a college I am referring to:
"The Medical Board of California is a state government agency which licenses and disciplines medical doctors. The Board provides two principal types of services to consumers: public-record information about California-licensed physicians, and investigation of complaints against physicians."
As someone senior to you, it is a duty and responsibility to guide others during their education. I hope to impress upon you that you are not sharing the vein of thought held by the majority of your profession.
While on the topic of private versus public domain and information, I may agree with you personally, professionally I cannot condone it. Professionalism is important for all professionals, including E-sport broadcasters, their companies and their sponsors.
Please allow me to share a personal experience:
My Q3TDM team was invited to the finals of the PGL and in order to practice, I used to play on university computers with my classmates on Friday late evenings after our class - everyone versus myself. It was a fun way to relax with the guys after a stressful week.
When the Dean found out, I was called in and severely reprimanded for "playing violent video games in the class' computer laboratory." I was told I was disrespectful of the contributions and donations of those who funded the laboratory and I should have known better. As president of the class, I set an unprofessional example for the class and was nearly suspended from my studies for the duration of the year.
I hope this helps explain the supportive, yet cautionary tone of the letter which I believe the OP is trying to impress upon us.
Wishing the very best upon everyone.
Thank you.
Respectfully yours.

Sir
If I invite my friends into my own home then open up a web cam and stream via invitation, what occurs in the stream is very much our private life. We had social functions involving a lot of alcohol use and prominent faculty members joking around, but of course, nobody was "disciplined" because they were all private citizens having a good time.
I would like you to see the crux of my argument, which is the fact that the organizer of this cast were private citizens instead of an official face of the esport they are representing.
Last of all, I would appreciate if you can tone down your phantom threat of "disclipine". I have graduated college years ago and your example and experience of being a college rep have nothing to do with the discussion at hand.
Respectfully yours

Are people seriously going to start analyzing & interpreting Artosis quotes to suit their own needs like its biblical scripture?
And Artosis' Ancestors said, "WHY CAN'T WE EAT MEAT?"
