EPTI think thats why people make a big deal out of it, plus the whole FOR ESPORTS phenomonon that SC2 created(or atleast, popularized) makes for drama drama drama and bandwagons.

IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2 Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads. | ||

Because she stole money from children using dota? Why do they need to be a professional player for this whole thing to matter? It's not like people are talking about her fucking some guy in the community or having an affair. | ||

If this story is correct then she stole money from people pretending to actually give the money to charity. Whether those people spent their money because it said DOTA somewhere or because they liked the way her hair was made isn't exactly relevant. It's fraud just based on the bolded part. | ||

In fact, the more you care about it, the more shit gona blow up and make the community looks bad. Yes, the issue needs to be address and the people who donated probably should cooperate with child play organization to make sure their money is in the right place, but to put this as a DotA related discussion is just fucking nut and make us look bad. This is my first reaction why the fuck did reddit even upvote these bullshit if they want our community to stay alive. Because communities love drama, durr. =P | ||

This kind of stuff is a cancer to the community and shouldn't just be swept under the carpet and allowed to fester. | ||

She lied about where the funds were going. When you tell your donors, I am going to give all proceeds to Charity A, and then you just keep all your money, you are stealing from that Charity. Nobody was pretending to give the money to charity, they all believed it was ACTUALLY going to charity. Sayuri stepped in and just jacked the cash instead. In every definition, she stole from both donors and the charity On August 18 2012 11:58 MrCon wrote: "The Loser Bracket Rounds 1 through 4 of the Loser Bracket are played as Best of 1 game.

Fuck this >< Each team already plays 15 games in the Group Stages, so its more like they have 16 shots before getting knocked out. | ||

Fuck that. Get rid of her once and for all and everyone has a right to know what she did. Why sweep this under the carpet pretending as if it never happened? That's fucking more shameful. It's a scandal and it makes us look bad if we go on pretending it didn't matter to the, you know, community who was part of this event. As long as we get boobs on our screen and our daily dose of entertainment who cares what happened to the money, right? This is a good point. Case in point of example? Penn State and Jerry Sandusky. They try and swept what Sandusky did under the rug to preserve the reputation of the university and now you see them getting bit incredibly hard in the ass because of it. | ||
