We understand that this topic evokes strong feelings. In the interest of maintaining a necessary and productive discussion, we will be taking a strong stance against posters that clearly do not contribute to this aim. Dishonest and bad faith arguments, victim blaming, and attacks on other users, will be strictly moderated. A post which only serves to muddy the waters and dishonestly portray the nature of assault and harassment (and corresponding accusations) is also unwelcome.

This is a serious topic. Please treat it as such.

If you have feedback on how we should approach this topic on LiquidDota, please see here.

Good find nevuk, I added that one into the timeline on my original thread.

Found a new tibit, Pyrion Flax exposes and reaffirms toby's involvement and also harboring his secret for too long.


Maelk also tells his side of the story with his involvement with tobi

Thanks, added that info to the OP (Meruna's follow-up, pflax and maelk's confirmation). Sorry about the delay, I'm theoretically on vacation this week.

The question is, wtf is considered a sexual activity from her point of view. We just had one crazy girl calling her own agreement to have sex a sexual abuse, so... Many of these stories are basically girls trying to hit on guys, seeing no commitment in return, getting butthurt from that and claiming they were raped, this is getting too ridiculous

How enlightened of you to just fucking decide that for someone. Think about how disgusting that is, and think about the vast amount of space between wanting to weigh the facts and allow for any possibility, and announcing that they're not victims.

Jesus.

Jesus.

When somebody says "i fucked him to get more gigs, and that felt disgusting" you don't have to be an Einstein to count 2+2. Or like that guy from csgo, whose ex first stated that she does not remember anything because she was high, and then proceeds to explain how was what with 0 proofs, WHILE trying to keep good relations with him and actually backing up on certain stuff, deleting her posts etc. INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY, when the fuck will white knights/cucks like you will learn that? On Meruna's case, as i said, you have to know the details to judge, there's no details, so she just can't be considered a victim, at least not by me. Have you read her twitter and tweetlonger? Zero proof, but okay, perhaps she does not want share details publicly, perhaps there's someone relevant who knows about this and can ensure there was some fucked up shit happening? No, i don't think so. So basically you want me to believe in "big man pinned my tiny ass but i managed to escape"? Or tweetlonger story that only says she felt bad about everything that happened, again, with no specific stuff? You are saying that i can't decide if someone's not a victim, but why in the fucking world do you think you can claim her being a victim? Based on fucking what? Court? I don't think that ever happenned. Her story with nothing specific? Genius

2 Victims coming forward.
one said this and i quote.

"Just to be clear: I would't have agreed to sexual relations had I known the other party wasn't serious "



Sounds exactly like sexual assault.Much like the other case sounds like the girl just wanted to get attention from Toby who was very famous caster basically.
These girls need to learn the definition of sexual assaullt.

Both Maelk and Pyrion knew about his inappropriate behavior , but surprise didn't do shit , because they were making money of Toby and suddenly when someone came out they're the first to justify it.They are in fact 10 times worse than Toby.
They had the power to do something about it ,but decided to make money instead and they will continue working in the scene ofc.

I'm 100% sure Toby was harassing girls in some way or another , but many ppl knew about it and nobody did anything and now all of them are saints etc.

Ok ýou just linked the twitt from Botijira, that for me says that Tobi didn't rape her. But she was hurt over a fuck and dump. The word agreed to sexual act is in there.
More to the point the only case Pyrion, who later told Maelk about is Botijra. But she would not press charges. Don't know about you but don't think you can fire or blacklist people without any proof. Maelk had a talk to Tobi, we don't know what he said but properly not a pleasant talk for Tobi, since Tobi confronted Pyrion about it.

On the other cases, SyndereN's gf seem very convincing with her having chatlog with him admitting it, would be nice to see it. The other case i haven't seen.But there is a strange pattern with Tobi ending up with women because of lack of space at events. Maybe something the organizers should look into. Its pretty mind boggling how big a problem this is.

There are literally million girls hurt after someone used them for sex.It goes both ways.That's not assault in any way.Maybe he mislead her or something.But blaming someone for ur mental state is just easier to deal with.

Pyrion was convinced Toby did what he was accused of ,but still worked with him etc for personal benefits.Just like all of the rest.

I think this tweet is about what happened with Sing and not about Tobi? It's important because she says in here that there was mutual agreement (whether or not the male partner was serious about the followup).

This isn't sexual assault though. You either consent, or you don't. There are no conditions to be attached to consent. You can of course withdraw consent whenever you want during the act.

To me it seems advisable to consider why you appear to only look for gotchas that somehow invalidate all or part of what is happening to supposed perpetrators here.
Something that doesn't quite check out, something that is contradictory or illogical, that makes what has been done alright or understandable. Like you're trying to rationalize horrid behaviour.

I'm not sure why you do that but it really seems to me that you victimise the perpetrators to an extent that I find unhealthy.
