People like destiny should be frowned upon in the community. You don't see PROFESSIONAL athletes running around throwing racial slurs at anyone who beats them, so why the hell should we tolerate it? IMO he's bad for this game, and he's definitely bad at this game now that Infestors aren't as strong as they were in the past. I hope the rest of you realize how bad he is for the community and stop giving attention that he no longer deserves. | ||

No idea why this thread is still open as it just promotes hostility towards each other. | ||

They were plainly and easily aware of it when they signed him. By that act, they've made their public feelings about the behavior quite clear. | ||

Is it at the "Top upvoted on r/starcraft' or the nuclear 'email sponsors, spam twitter' level? key word is in what context? What is a joke? or what is dead serious? If Naniwa was dead serious on killing somebody, he would have probably described to the person what he would do in detail. Maybe not. But the inference of whether a joke about killing somebody can be easily discerned. And the police and authorities should probably be more involved than the SC2 community at large. | ||

A few months ago Morhaime had to make a public apology for some homophobic crap said and celebrated during one of their big events. As a result, Blizzard is now hyper aggressive about stomping on homophobes. If I were Destiny, Quantic and Razer I'd be more concerned about Blizzard's official response to the non stop homophobic drivel that spews from Destiny's stream and that he expresses while on Blizzard's BNet2 "social gaming platform". | ||

No idea why this thread is still open as it just promotes hostility towards each other. If this post is intended to be a level, then well done. If it isn't, then perhaps you should read your final sentence again in the context of the OP. | ||

You must have awfully thin skin to be offended by what someone says to you in a video game. These choice words are being said by one of the many faces of Starcraft 2, not by some random Joe in the bronze league on ladder. With fame comes responsibility, knowing that everything you say or do could be thrown back into your face. He's getting paid to play video games for a living. The least he can do is show some class and professionalism when going about his work and realizing that in those thousands of viewers there are many different people of all races/ethnic backgrounds. | ||

He can probably wipe his ass with 1,000 dollar bills and not even notice a change in his bank account. | ||
