Before anyone replies remember that you don't have to like what people say, but you have no right telling them they can't say it. Grow a fucking backbone. Also if Warden reads this message, how about you tell everyone you were calling people retards at the St Louis LAN back when you were on xi. I bet people with disabilities wouldn't like that either, kettle meet pot. There's no such thing as free speech on Teamliquid/reddit, the moderators have the right to ban for whatever reason they see fit. | ||

The so called "faces" of SC2 are too concerned with sponsors and $$$, less about ethics and not turning this place into 4chan. Look at yourself. This place is already 4chan, and for none of the reasons you stated. | ||

Now imagine if this trend continues, players will cease to have ANY personality for fear of saying ONE thing wrong, and having a bunch of children email their sponsors, tagging them as CRITICAL, and having their entire team suffer. Completely wrong. In professional sports you always get people who are more outspoken than others and that doesn't affect them a whole deal. What Destiny does on his stream is just juvenile whether he's racist or not. | ||

It kinda felt like the TL ban was a result of them thinking Quantic wouldn't do anything, now that they have, its double damage to Destiny. Revoking the TL ban wouldn't look or feel right though. I guess the pitchforks still have some sharpness to them. Destiny's career is left in a bloody mess. + Show Spoiler + 591 viewers currently  | ||

I'd support Razer and all who emailed them 100% even if they drop Quantic from the list of whom their sponsoring. There are consequences for your actions. | ||

I personally wouldnt contact sponsors, i dont contact them for good or bad, its none of my buisness but what u guys should ve done is to not watch _his_ stream, that would hurt him but the sad story of all this probably is that there are more racist people out there who actually can relate to destiny and find it even funny. | ||

Razer was going to put Quantic in an unfavorable situation thanks to what happened, and Destiny took the bullet for them. I don't know what you're referring to by completely wrong, but all I did was state the situation as it happened. | ||
