Always that joke argument.. Do you want to hear soccer players calling each other faggots in all of the post-match interviews? I don't think so.

Esports will never even survive if it has cancerous personalities like Destiny in it.

"Ignorant to other people's feelings"? Maybe if I spammed him with messages after the game, or added him and told my stream to harass and stalk him. Maybe if I messaged him on Skype or sent him e-mails. Calling someone a nigger/faggot/gook/cheese/piece of shit/queer/mother fucker/step-mother fucker etc...at the end of a game before leaving? You honestly think that people who rage at the end of games lack empathy? You should be a psychiatrist!

If I knew what WHAT words meant to WHAT people? Lots of people find different words offensive. List of possible offensive words -

faggot - offensive to the gay community
nigger - offensive to the black community
gook - offensive to asians(?)
spic - offensive to hispanics
retarded - offensive to mentally challenged
rape - offensive to rape victims
snipe - offensive to war veterans
nuke - offensive to descendants of hiroshima survivors
grammar nazi - offensive to descendants of concentration camp survivors
murdered - offensive to people who've experienced death in family
cancer on the community - offensive to people who've suffered from cancer

Now, here's the fun part. Without sounding like a bigot, I want you to tell me which words I can and cannot say, and why certain groups of people are special enough to have certain words not said for them, and the others are unworthy of said "protected status". Good luck!

I love this at the end..."His opinions that either its "stupid" or "illogical" to have such negative feelings attached to racial words just means that he simply does not understand individuality."

Because nothing says individuality like taking offense to a simple word spoken out of context that at one point in time was used to insult a collective group of individuals.



Eh, I could be humble here, but nah, fuck that. I'm pretty damned good with people. Ask anyone who sees me at any MLG, I'll stop and sign anything or take a picture with anyone, regardless of the length of the line. People that you guys hold to much higher "friendly" standards, though, such as Day9, Huk, Nony, and others? They SPLIT the second they think a crowd is gathering and they do their best to stay away from any places where they could be mobbed.

So how do you judge whether someone is "good with people"? Is it based on the facade they put up when they know they're under the public eye? Or is it based on how they actually interact with other people?




Ah, my bad. I was unaware of the several hundred year old stream viewers I have. I'll try to cater to that audience more.

Seriously, though? You want me to cater to an audience of people that define themselves based on some insulting words that someone said about their ancestors hundreds of years ago? If we played that game, there are tons of other words we should cut out of our dictionary (for just black people, I can think of the word "boy", "negro", and "colored", and I'm sure there are many more for many other groups of people).



Ah, now here, I'm going to have to call you a brainless fucking piece of shit. I can't even believe you would have the audacity to fucking call me out on something like that. You have absolutely no fucking idea what I have or haven't experienced in my past. A lot of the immature and childish bullshit that you call "hardship" (OH NO SOMEONE SAID NIGGER, OH GOD HE SAID FAGGOT, OH NO HE MADE FUN OF MY PANTS) PALES in comparison to a lot of the shit I've had to deal with in my life. Maybe the difference in perspective is one of the reasons why I'm able to look past absolutely pointless bullshit like this and someone like you turns it into the focal point of a huge discussion. You want my child to get bullied in high school? Seriously, I would dedicate all 130 lbs of my tiny frame into the beating the shit out of you if I ever saw you in person wishing that on my son. If you think the only way to learn respect about someone else is to suffer, then you're sadly misguided, and incredibly stupid.



Honestly, this should have been the only thing you wrote in your post. I agree 100% with this. If you don't like the things I say or the way I act, don't watch my stream. Less people watching me = less money for me, meaning I either A) have to change the way I behave, or B) fade away from the public eye.



Negative impact on the community? I have the most viewer hours of any current SC2 streamer. You don't think that counts for anything?



Ah, that's why so many people watch me. I understand now.



ITT: someone wishing that someone else's child gets bullied in high school, then calling that person ignorant because he uses bad words on the internet.



Educational...I lol'd.

Anyone contacting the sensors or suggesting that people do it in this thread should be ashamed of themselves. It's not fair to Quantic. It's been said many times that sponsors are fickle in our community, and you're doing more harm than good despite how outraged you might be at Destiny. It's also completely blowing the situation out of proportion to contact the sponsors. There are much more reasonable ways to communicate your opinion to Quantic, and you haven't even given them sufficient time to respond. If you consider yourself a fan of this community, you shouldn't do it. Otherwise, I hope you realize that the community would be much better off without you.

I'm going to stop responding to thoughtless post like this until you respond to my questions earlier.

Tell me which words a person should/shouldn't be allowed to say, and then tell me why some groups of people are protected while others aren't.

What sponsors could start to think : "Holy shit, this community is awful. They flip out at the most minor things. What if we did something that was subjectively wrong? They'll flip out on us. No thanks."

wow really? xD
blackmail? that's your response?

haha, now THAT is pathetic, or better yet, where can i file you for slander?
that's what the next person with your attitude should do.

person A did X but I don't care..
person B did X and I put effort into hurting him.

*clap*

btw, why again is it "unacceptable" ?
ohhh because some people think it's offensive. one day, it will be "unacceptable" to call someone "cool".
it's rather funny actually, because it makes no sense.
anyone who feels offended by those kind of words has every right to feel this way,
but at the same time, they should reflect and be ashamed.

Amazing, amazing post. I don't understand why people always feel the need to ignore bad things that happen. They need to be addressed and responded to accordingly.

Simply ignoring this because "IT'S DESTINY GUYS XDDDDD" is stupid. If Quantic doesn't want to do anything, which is extremely clear considering they picked him up for his abrasive personaility and since they have done nothing in the past to correct his behavior, then going to the sponsors is a must.

It IS unreasonable. Honestly, the only reason people (like the butthurt 12 year old above) are so quick to email the sponsors is because we made such a big deal about NOT emailing the sponsors when the Orb situation erupted. Now people think "Ha! If this makes them angry, then good!" Not realizing how imprudent such a move is.

Destiny is very intelligent and can defend his behavior with reason and logic, taking a philosophical stance on the meaning WE put into words. Whether it's right or wrong, emotional attacks against him are simply going to fail here. If you don't like Destiny, do as he suggested ... don't watch his stream. But don't fucking punish the rest of the community because you think you are being a civil rights hero via TL.
