The subject of this thread is not a license to roll out your inaccurate, misinformed, poorly conceived, tired, and downright offensive theories about race relations. |

Ya. Plus it wouldn't be nearly as big of a deal if he wasn't associated with EG and if he didn't angrily lie about it for a while. Both of those things make it significantly worse.

As a "professional" caster he shouldn't be portraying himself this way but not really a big deal in my opinion, of course it's Alex Garfield and SirScoot's opinion that matters at this point.
|
Oh god let me never get famous. My rages aren't so short, or so sweet. lol
+1 for orb being a pothead. Didnt know it, brother. Welcome to the circle.

This honestly isn't necessary to have on Team Liquid. Leave stuff like this to reddit. Orb shouldn't even listen to reddit, they can say whatever they want and have no penalty to it what so ever. That's the only thing that is giving this non sense publicity

Who the hell is Orb and why should we care about what he or anyone else says in a ladder game? His opponents can just report it and it's finished~~
The desire for drama is getting ridiculous here(more than before).
He's somewhat of an official caster for EG, which has the most sponsorship of any other esports company, I believe. They are basically the front line of e-sports, so this is a big blow to their image. Sponsors will *not* be happy about this.

would care but like you said, more than one featured streamer uses the word

Who cares?

This Is Necessary, you don't see pro atheletes saying these things. There was recently a large uproar in EU about a futbol player spouting racist remarks. This should not be tolerable if we want esports to be respected.

this thread was completely necessary. we have the right to look for every possible reason to be upset. so lets do that.

I don't know what planet you people come from where calling people nigger and faggot is ok for a professional spokesman.
Hint: it's not ok

You choose to be placed in the eye of the public. because he did it on a tournament stream which was supposed to be completely professional whereas orb's stream is a personal stream.
And? People in the public eye get fired all the time for doing stuff similar to this in their personal lives.

orb smokes weed and is a racist? Hmn well I mean did everyone see that EG video where they went to the deadmau5 concert? If not I recommend you take a look and pay close attention to their pupils, oh and how Idra and machine are dancing together haha. that was kinda funny.
|
Wasn't this all said before he became an Official caster for EG? Think of it as a new start for him...
|
The word nigger comes from the latin word neger which means dark skinned human. Your going to make a man give up his classical heritage just so some people don't get butt-hurt? Have some class people. Grow a vocabulary, and stop getting offended so easily when a man is simply drawing upon classical roots.

Read the thread and use your critical faculties as to why an EG employee using unacceptable and disgusting language might be a big deal to a few people.

His comments are recent, and they show that he's still a little immature bitch. EG is not pleased with his online composure (let alone his weed smoking) and hopefully he'll get booted out

Clearly you do, because you took the time to post in a thread of people who obviously care. L2Read

If that's true then TL needs to examine it's standard for featured streamers. But other people's poor behavior does not excuse Orb's.

Exactly, this guy clearly has issues and shouldn't be representing our community.
