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. | ||

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. Agreed. Some storys sound like "I consented back then, but today i don't consent any more." Just because you change your attitude of consenting afterwards doesn't allow you to claim sexual harrassment. | ||

Meruna hasn’t been incredibly specific (and I don’t blame her) but it’s obvious she was raped. https://twitter.com/meruna_/status/1276422738605981696?s=21 | ||

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. It's because i find it unhealthy that you can write something on the net, and then some one is guilty, this complety undermize the justice system, this is an act of vigilante. Here you sentence Tobi to loss his job, friendships and more. Maybe other People think he deserve i beating, some could think worse. I really find some of this post hysterical and the demand for justice with blind faith. I would have prefered he had trial instead of this. As I said context is important. I thought it refered to sex with Tobi and not another person. To be honest he seems guilty, but as I can misread a text out of context that seem to change my mind in one case. I would say that you and other people misread an accusation. So lets say one of this evil rapist turns out innocent, what should the pubishment be for all the people here yelling for them to loss there job, should you get fired and have a post that admit you raped some one so can feel it for one week. No that is a bad idea, why we should lave it to the court system. The other way is towards anarchy. | ||

If you do, then your morals and ethics are meaningless, and essentially you sold them for mammon.OK I want to hear how many for your people actually quit a job or gang because you knew a person in that company have commit a sexual harassment or normal harassment? If you stick by said people, you are indirectly endorsing their behavior as acceptable or not detrimental enough to cut it, which essentially speaks volumes about one's own character traits. | ||

How long do people think this cancel culture shit can fly before it starts backfiring? For every life ruined life because of accusations from many years ago, many people are radicalised and turn towards fringe right-wing beliefs. This shit needs to stop before literally everyone is radicalised either to the left or the right. | ||

I'm going out on a limb here, but my 2 cents: if it was that one thing, from X years ago, and it would be questionable whether even that is true, Tobi would be fine, BTS and Valve wouldnt have done sh`t. | ||

This shit needs to stop before literally everyone is radicalised either to the left or the right. And for every life ruined because of actions from many years ago... ah, I forgot, you don't care, cause those are not "the biggest caster in dota". Or is there any other feature about them you dislike? But I don't think anyone worries about you crying about being pushed to the far right. You are off the cliff already. | ||

To people who don't believe the allegations I'd just ask that you answer what specifically you'd need to see to convince you of his guilt? | ||

This part right here is real fucking rich. Real interesting approach. Use typical alt-right incel jargon then warn about people being drawn to far right beliefs | ||

https://medium.com/@nahazdota/regarding-toby-b5ee41b193e4 Nahaz reveals meruna has given all of them screen shots of the private conversations which they won't post publically, but the inherent conversation was so damning against toby, he's guilty in the eyes of his co-workers and employers. there's no way his employers would not have also seen those same screenshots to drop him immediately. Meruna clarifies her position | ||

It's been corroborated enough times to have colleagues and friends turn away from him. Some things aren't illegal but amoral. For this there is only the public/ people to judge a character. Which can be wrong but everything points to this not being the case with Toby or grant. Thus insisting another case might be different is absolutely superfluous. Discussing what if's borders on gaslighting. And what the fuck? We sentence Toby? These are HIS actions not ours that are disgusting. He's thrown himself under the bus by being a prick. Of course I believe it if enough people I consider credible come out against him. | ||

The fact that even after these statements from Nahaz, LD, ODPixel, and others there will still be people questioning the authenticity of these claims against Toby is alarming and frustrating. I hope the industry can change even if it has to drag the most vile members of the community along with it. | ||
