EPTNaNiwa not invited to Code S - Page 59
| Forum Index > Closed |
While I understand that there's a need to discuss this matter, this thread has way too many trash posts in it. Please think carefully about what you want to say. Ad hominem attacks on Swedish people in general, calling you fellow Starcraft fans idiots etc etc will be dealt with with harsher punishment from here on out. Keep it civil people. Page 230: Here's some more stuff that'll get you banned! - Conspiracy theory mongering about MLG and GOM - Comparing people to Hitler - Posting useless one liners of arguments that have already been repeated ad nauseum. | ||

No, it completely misses the point. GomTV is GomTV, not Korea. You people need to use your goddamn brains. | ||

If GOM is trying to cater to koreans, who are demandiing more of Naniwa (and GOMTV is trying to keep the korean viewerbase) then it's the right course of action. Clash of culture? Any league would do this. NFL would. NHL would. NBA would. Premier League has done something like this. La Liga would. GOM acted like any professional sports organization would act, professionally. | ||

It's already boring with so few foreigners, now they ban Nani for reacting like a normal Person to their stupid Format?.... I don't think they are trying to copy KESPA. It's just that they are both in fact Korean Starcraft organizations following Korean standards. I highly doubt that a "normal" pro gamer would have done with Naniwa did to NESTEA, of all people. | ||

Does this mean that mule bombs, manner nexus, and /dance is banned from GSL? That rule have been since open season 1. Maybe Nazgul still have player booklet from that time. It was sth along the lines "Gretek/GOM reserves the right to remove the player if his behaviour is deemed inappropriate" | ||

Ideally he would just play a normal game like other progamers such as HerO would have. It just speaks more to Naniwa's immaturity and selfishness in my opinion... | ||

Being banned from the GSL for a while is the only option GOM has available.That being said its still not an appropriate punishment. A fine is customary in most sports for behaviour that hurts the professional image of the sport/game and I dont see why that shouldn't be the case here. | ||

Actually there is a possibility of winning there. Acceptable in that hes pulling a legitimate strategy that can be successful. | ||

I was glad for the chance to see every player in a group play every other player. I paid to be entertained and I find that entertaining. one guy couldn't handle it though, he has no pride in his play and no interest in showing the world what he's capable of against nestea. | ||

Did you really think Gom would just sit idly by while someone gets on their stage and disrespects them? How would that make them look? It amazes me that such a large portion of the community supports this (obvious disrespect). Some of you are like the kids that support Kanye. You're from South Korea so I'm sorry to say but your opinion may be skewed. For being a Global Star League, the GSL sure does incorporate so many different cultures. The only people who were seriously offended were some of the Koreans. Instead of considering the situation from more than one point a view, a GLOBAL point of view if you will, they say "He offended Koreans, he's out". | ||

So your saying that probes are equally as powerful as zealots and stalkers? Interesting I swear I have never seen any evidence of this, I must be not playing enough SC. | ||
