Why is Idra's excessive BM allowed to persist?

Hello dear community members

I am a sc2 player and an avid fan of the growing sc2 e-sports scene. I have always been fond of players like White-ra, MMA and Idra just to name one from each race: ).

But something has really been grinding my gears as of lately: Idra's behavior

Idra is one of the most accomplished foreigners and a face of the foreign community to some extend, yet he continuesly goes out of his way to BM opponents and players with little to no good reason.
After watching him leave the 5th Mana vs Idra game on IPL with an unprovoked "Fuck you" I decided enough is enough and decided to unlike his facebook, twitter etc. in personal protest to his behavoir. (by no means a big thing but still..)

My question for the community is: Why are people not more concerned with this?
How come he gets to stay on as a featured streamer after repeatingly having been banned from the forums for excessively BM'ing people even going as far as to call cruncher a "waste of life". A guy he brazenly denied a hand shake in front of a huge growd, TWICE!

I am not saying Idra should not feel the way he feels but rather show some professional restraint at least for the spectators and the supporters?

What are your thoughts community?

Kind regards The Bamf

idra is idra, bm brings in more views to EG's website, more views = more money. I'm sure behind closed doors they scorn him for his behavior.

BM is directly related to popularity in many cases.
