Pretty cold if you ask me. I think that's what many people in this thread don't understand. In the business world, unless you're so big that people can't afford to *not* do business with you (Day9, who I'm mentioning incidentally, he seems like a good enough guy), this kind of stuff is just poison for future partnerships. There's a difference between being legally and morally right. | ||

I feel really bad for desrow, now he's got a hate mob after him. He didn't say anything about going on this thread and hating Desrow. He got linked to Desrows post by a viewer, told the stream what happened, and went back to his games. He seems pretty annoyed by it, but he constantly reiterated the fact that Desrow is a nice guy, and that you shouldn't attack him throughout. | ||

It was a great opportunity/event to promote myself and promote himself. He offered me 500$ and paid airfare and food which was 500$. On top of that, he gave me a 70$ microphone as a gift. Maximus made around 850$ off ad revenue and 4000$ off donations minus 1070 for aifare/salary/microphone. Once I got back, I talked with a few really close friends who work in e-sports for notable organisations and asked them their opinion of the whole affair. Most of them were shocked/surprised that he wasn't giving me more than that. I asked Maximus a week later if he thought I deserved more than what he gave me. He started flipping out and being agressive and calling me out for things that never seemed to be an issue while I was over there. Most of the jokes I made were to entertain sort of like 2GD. He kept claiming that he lost potential revenue from his youtube channel when he already had pre-recorded content for every channel. After he flipped out, I realize this wasn't going anywhere. Until I heard that CSN wanted to hire him. Being a acquaintance of John Clark, I thought it was only fair to inform him of how Maximus was behind the scene. After CSN telling Maximus what I told them, he realize that this whole story could get out and that his persona would be compromised. He then agreed to pay an extra 300$ out of spite. Say i was Idra or something and i got offered 500 dollars to go down and coach someone i barely knew. I wouldnt go and ask for more money after what was agreed on top of making jokes that werent even funny and were hurtful to that persons wife along with him giving a microphone to me. But you would go out and ask for more? what a joke | ||

In essence, MB told "his" side of the story and all his fans are now up in arms and wanting to make desWOW suffer for it. Which, is weird, because all he did was tell his side and everyone believes MB over desWOW. Eh, drama in SC2 never gets old I guess. | ||

You don't agree to something and then go back and ask for more. You be smart about it from the beginning and if it is an issue. you're in the wrong here. Oh and by the way.. Those jokes weren't funny. | ||

You could say that players like IdrA have their own little armies too, but I've never seen IdrA going buck wild about some post on his stream, he just plays games. Some players seem to cultivate drama. good post, I appreciate it when people actually want to have a discussion. I would agree with you on that MaximusBlack does seem to have a decent amount of drama, with him. I've got my own theories but that's just opinion - for instance he's an entertainer, he actively interacts with his audience on a very personable level. This is something I don't see from IdrA. He's very much a consumate pro and (imo) treats his stream as such. For him it's not about being entertaining. For him it's about practice and allowing eSports fans to have a peek | ||

It pisses me off when people say "oh no don't get me wrong I think he's a nice guy, but (insert 15 minute rant about him.)" He knows his fanbase will go apeshit and try to ruin desWOW's name and reputation. | ||

Let's see how much revenue he makes after getting ddos'd for a month straight. And what do you think *this post* says about *you*? Or a segment of MaximusBlack's viewership, for that matter? | ||

You really think I'm going to bother typing out 15 minutes worth of ranting? Watch the vod later or something, I'm sure you can get the gist of it from this thread. | ||

Desrow, quite frankly, you are wrong in every single way. Maximus brough you under his own roof, did you a favour as on average he gets 5x more viewers than you, exposed you to 4000+ people each day during the boot camp, and you turn your back and do this to him. You're a grown man, show some respect and some class. You owe thousands of likes, follows and future views to Jeff. You made disgusting jokes, 99% about his fiance and are now blackmailing Jeff. He gave you everything you needed, wanted, could ask for + more, especially after trying to ruin his chances with CSN? You're sick. I hope you never get picked up by another team, as you don't deserve it, because people like you will get nowhere. You owe Jeff a huge apology, and if I was Jeff, i'd laugh at it, and tell you to get lost. honestly, the donations thingy shud have been split 50/50 there's nothing else to it, if jeff thinks he could have gotten a bigger part of it because he has more viewers on average or whatever the fuck else then he just had to make a MAXIMUS GOING TO MLG DONATION not maximus + desrow wtf common sense | ||
