1) It's one thing to rage, but to rage and use that word. HAH. fuck off. (honestly surprised he hasn't gotten banned from bnet between that and the account sharing)

2) He's a personality, meaning there are higher standards and he should know better than to do that

3) He lied about it and tried to cover it up, all the while talking shit to everyone who didn't believe him, then he tries to apologize for other incidents that were found. Are you kids fucking serious to defend him?

4) People need to stop dickriding so hard, sure you may like the guy, but be objective please, or don't even post.

The fact that you think the term "gay" can be used to describe something you don't like is inherently homophobic.

But it certainly doesn't make you a homophobe

Well i guess this mass lying is why he is getting in trouble over this. The use of the word is w/e... It seems like everytime something good happens for someone in the community( in the case, orb joining EG) people feel the need to hunt down whatever they can to slander someone; course it could just be bad luck on the timing for orb

I still support you though!

Don't really care about the rage, just the superiority complex and lying about it after-the-fact.


Agreed, language isn't offensive to me, but trying to weasel your way out of it and subsequently making the situation even worse for yourself is no good to anyone. Either own up to it or keep your mouth/fingers in check in the first place.
I close one eye, and I see half. I close both, and I see everything.

if orb didn't lie i would say this was a non issue and would probably have gone away quickly. but because he lied and refused to admit it it only fueled the fire..

That being said i hope orb still casts for EG and other people and just stops using that language while laddering. I really like his casting!

why does it have to be homophobic? gay means happy, you know he could just be misanthropic.

Awww man, I actually would be kinda sad if Orb ends up getting removed from a lot of casting jobs because of this since I consider him a pretty good caster.

Hopefully, everything works out positively in the end, and I hope Orb cleans up his act since I definitely don't want to see him stop casting in the future.

Exactly.

It was out of context since he cant possibly know he is talking to a black person or not. Obviously he is using it in a derogatory manner, which is childish at best, but that doesnt make him a fucking racist!!!

Though obviously his casting days are over since you cant even fart in the business environment without someone filing a complaint. God I love 2012.

Saying faggot and nigger makes you neither a racist nor a homophobe. Those are just the most socially unacceptable thing a rager can come up with. If he went on a diatribe about how the Jews were controlling the media than yeah, I'd see something wrong with that. But this is just a gamer talking shit online.

Exactly. He probably shouldn't do this while streaming or on his main account. Gotta be smarted than that but honestly it's a online game, big fucking deal. I get called a nigger/faggot/random insult about daily on b.net. Laugh it off and move on.

i played against orb a few months ago on ladder and he was a total bad mannered, conceited guy flaming me and telling me im garbage for pwning him. i hate him very much since that day and can not understand anyone who likes him. apperently you haven't beaten him on ladder^^ overall, in my opinion he is a very fake personality who has a fake self asteem, and just want's his name to be heard and seen. he wants to be famous badly but obviously is way to arrogant to be liked by a huge mass eventually

Sometimes we use word's just becouse it sound's right not becouse it mean something. Internet is full of badly used lols, rotfls... etc.

This thread should get all the attention it's getting.

This kind of behavior needs to stop in general in our community. The nerd rage and all the excuses for it is just idiotic. I used to watch orb's stream for a bit but the endless flaming and harassment towards his opponents is really irritating and uncomfortable. It's a shame honestly, bc orb is a charismatic person and does particularly well as a caster, but these are the kind of things that just turn you off about him. It was obvious that this guy was not classy but these pictures are just embarrassing.

Personally, I hope he's reprimanded as this immaturity should never be advocated.
