Quantic kicked him off the team because he kept on saying racist/derogatory comments on his stream which tarnishes the reputation of Quantic. Don't know if you read the OP, but Destiny makes it clear that it was ultimately his choice to leave. | ||

I'm going to college next year and when I tell people I play Starcraft I don't want the first thing people say to be something about how I must be part of a fucking witch hunt that is never satisfied. I'd rather be accused of raging too hard. I'm glad Destiny plugged his stream so that I know where to find him now. | ||

Quantic kicked him off the team because he kept on saying racist/derogatory comments on his stream which tarnishes the reputation of Quantic. Wrong. Please don't spread misinformation. Destiny chose to leave Quantic. The specifics of the situation have not been released. It is likely that Quantic was pressured into disciplining him or kicking him off the team. Perhaps they offered him a chance to stay on the team if he would apologize and change his ways or something like that... or perhaps not. Perhaps he would have definitely been kicked off if he didn't choose to leave... no one knows but the people involved. It is all speculation at this point. | ||

I would like u to point it out There were a few options on the table when we were discussing things, but all of the options left Quantic in a really rough position. The fact of the matter is, me leaving Quantic or forfeiting any sponsorship really doesn't hurt my income, or affect me, much at all. But it would be devastating to certain parts of Quantic if things continued down this road (and still might be, though there's not much that can be done at this point). Your question was why did he leave Quantin NOT what did he do on stream. Why he left Quantic is clearly indicated here. | ||

And who are you to say whether he's no better than a racist or not? The bigger question should even be why does anyone ever care what the dude says on his stream in the first place? Like i haven't even read 1 argument as to why anyone even cares? Actually lets see if he's done anything to show or prove he's racist. Has destiny called a black player a nigger on stream? No ok then ... well how about calling someone with mental disabilities a retard? Hrmmm nope again. Well shit maybe he's actually called a homosexual a faggot then? Wait he hasn't? Well god damn. Has he raised money for charity benefiting mostly non white people? Well yeah, he has actually ( funny how nobody actually talks about this one ... go figure there) Mother fucker must be racist!!! To be fair he has said those words out of frustration, but Idra, machine, and incontrol at some point have used the word gay or fag on stream at some point ... yet nobody's e-mailing their sponsors bitching ... funny how that works, hell idra gave chris the finger and yelled "fuck you" at him at mlg that had young kids in the crowd .... nobodies e-mailing sponsors bitching about that either. If your complaining about destiny but not a good 60% of pro gamers out there, or the ones i previously mentioned then your a fucking hypocrite and have business bitching about anything. | ||

No, common sense is to fight racism against racists, and not people spouting bad words to let off steam during a fit. It's like trying to prevent house fires by showering people lighting cigarettes, with fire extinguishers. | ||

Because he WON'T conform with what other people believe. I respect that he is his own man, if someone doesn't like what he does, he doesn't give a shit. But if you don't feel what he is doing is appropriate, and you feel strongly enough, then why should you sit down and shut up? Destiny is a supporter of free speech obviously, so he is by proxy a supporter of other people having free speech, including the ability to speak out against what they feel is wrong. Destiny is fine without sponsors. I wish Destiny the best of luck. But no company should want to associate themselves with that kind of behaviour, and blatantly in this case they felt the same. | ||
