I don't think there is anything else to say... I can't bash grubby, the guy is still trying to survive as a pro-gamer and hasn't been able to adapt correctly. Gaming has been his job for so many years, I don't think he would just deny SS to promote something even BLIZZARD sells in their store. | ||

How is this extreme? If he's shown he's capable of putting aside his morals for this, what is to stop him doing it for other things. Its pretty clear that grubby only cares about money and not about the integrity of the game. people saying this only affects lower league players a) dont really understand how much this could be exploited and b) dont realise that theres a whole mass of lower league players and this could potentially ruin the game. If you ahve an opponent on ladder using this they have a huge unfair advantage thats against the rules, and grubby is the one who took money to promote it. thats dirty as fuck | ||

Would you say that Grubby is not responsible / not to blame ? That's the exact same situation. | ||

Your example of Hitler in comparison to grubby and "morals" are vastly different and on a whole new level. First off, I think you mean values. Secondly, I think you need to consider other factors besides the redundant issue of "money". It's equivalent or on a comparable level as Hitler and genocide? I don't think so. | ||

These kind of equipment have always been around and were always promoted by progamers in someway or another. This one suffers from being a little careless but no big deal imho. | ||

Everyone makes mistakes. Maybe grubby didnt even know that its illegal to do so by blizzards ToS? Ever consider that? this would hardly ruin the game. macros would not make you any better than you are already | ||

How is this derailing. This is the whole point of this thread. Grubby made a video to promote cheating. He would've been aware that it was cheating. He would've had a chance to turn it down. He did neither. People saying he had to do it are wrong, people saying its kosher are wrong. I dont see how promoting cheating and cheating are suddenly mutually exclusive. | ||

Now unknowing people will buy the keyboard, use a bunch of macros and will eventually be banned by Blizzard for doing so. I don't see anything wrong with that, it's up to them to read the goddamn ToS and adhere to them. | ||
