Remember this is a gentlemens sport, is Destiny really a gentlemen?

Destiny was being a dick, which - if it bothers you enough - you sort out by reporting him to TL/Twitch, ie the people that he streams through and promote his stream and who will probably not approve of such content being featured on their respective websites/services (if they decide it goes against their policy). There is no point to be made here. The point is that he is a dick and he shouldn't be a dick unless he is like Paris Hilton who likes to make a video about herself behaving badly for more popularity? By the look of it, he does like he wants more popularity by entertaining people with bad mouthing. In which case, I feel sorry for him that it is the only way he can maintain his popularity. But then he will probably say something like I dont give a fuck! | ||

Sounds like you got pissed because he raged at you and called you names, and now, instead of PMing him you decided to post the bitch-fest to the world. Been there, done that. Never draws the response you want. Side note: Being a gook myself, I always found the word hilarious. Just sound it out. You can't help but laugh. ^_^ | ||

I thought Destiny was never on coL in the first place? Could be wrong though. | ||

But people still are. And there are means to deal with them (in most cases). So try doing that. Thread over. =/ | ||

and other places I suppose Blows my mind. and edit: I think people who get made need to make the differentiation between the race or what is taken advantage of, and their opponent. Get mad at what you lost to, not the person >< | ||

I feel like you're being sarcastic, but the point should still be made... Requiring people to not use slurs in public discourse does not make something a "gentlemen's sport", it makes it civil. Not tolerating slurs does not make SC2 "stuck up". Tolerating them keeps it immature. I cannot think of a major sphere where such language is tolerated. It's not asking a lot for people to not call each other slurs. It's really not. | ||

"While I understand people standing up for Destiny - I don't understand why they are insulting OP? That's what happens when kids watch something cool on TV and copy it. Age restriction required on the stream because of these kids : )" Above is what I said, I am not going into whether Destiny is allowed or not allowed or right or wrong that sort of stuff. It gets nowhere. What I know is that OP should not be dissed for this post. | ||

But if a fan or the league mics that player up and catches the slur, then that's a controversy. It would be an issue if a player in any major sports league in America (NBA, MLB, NFL, NHL, etc) used a slur like that. There have been incidents like it in the past. (See: John Rocker) John Terry agrees. | ||

You all-inned him, which could very well piss him off (as any person may BM you for it). We don't need an Orb 2.0 here. double standards at its best! | ||

I think featured streamers should have to maintain a certain level of decency to remain featured though. | ||
