Fan is short for "fanatic". Go figure. Keep the "hate" out of this thread, if you want to dicuss this issue, there is a million comment thread on reddit.

Aside from that: Congratz orb for being on the EG team.

Hey orb don't let all this drama get to you, just a bunch of idiots trying to find a witch to hunt. They will get off your back and move to someone else soon enough =/

In the mean time spark up a bowl and relax!

EG Statement re: Orb situation incoming.

From Reddit:
hey, everyone. alex (ceo of evil geniuses) here.
i'll be making a formal statement about this situation later today. i just wanted to assure everyone that we're aware of these allegations, and that we're taking them very, very seriously.
there will be ramifications here. their severity is something we're still determining, but there's no doubt that the situation requires action on our part.
please try to be patient as we discuss the matter internally.

Must be pretty depressing for Orb to realize how fucking stupid the Reddit community can be. You still have people who support you Orb don't let the others get you down.

Eh, reddit is full of self-righteous hypocrites who will blow something like this out of proportion and then proceed to make racist jokes elsewhere because they're "just jokes" (I say this as an individual who lurks reddit extremely often). orb is still a caster I enjoy listening to.

Even with the little lying to EG management tiff, Orb is still the only analytical commentator who can even compete with Artosis and Day9 sooo...

too bad day9s "analytical commentating" is for bronze league. sorry bro no one compares to idra and artosis understanding of the game when they cast.

do we even know when those exact in game comments were made?
like those pictures will always be on the web, but how long does it have to affect his potential career of casting (which he has proven to be awesome with)

i always knew he was a rager and has said some things in the past that he shouldnt have. but i watched so much esv korea weekly, and he definitely won me over as a fan and supporter. his long solo casting sessions and the dedication he showed throughout was amazing

i hope orb makes the self improvements that he needs to and that im sure he is working on, and hopefully can move past this. but the sad part is, time will pass by and im sure he should get more opportunities in the future (hes to good to not get any), and some people(hater) will constantly repost these pictures, in an effort to bring him down.

(and no, i do not support any of his outbursts with certain racial slangs)

Reallllllly hope orb gets through this BS scandal...
I agree reddit blows shit wayyyy out of proportion,

It sucks because everyone on reddit wants to "be right" in their convictions
that orb is racist, and their is soooo much content to sift through that it makes
him an easy target. I feel bad for u orb :'( u can get through this man!

Don't let it get to you orb. Reddit is nothing but a tabloid now and nothing they say should be taken seriously.

Even though the "n" word has racial connotations, I don't think that using it like he did makes him "racist" like a lot of people on Reddit and TL are claiming.

In his apology, he talked about how he used that word just because he thought it would spark anger in the other person. Whether the rest of his apology was true or not, I definitely believe that that was why he used the word, and not that he is racist. I know plenty of people who use that word to get reactions, but they are not racist. It's the same way with people who tell Jew jokes and things like that. They're usually not actually anti-Semitic, they just tell them because they get strong reactions. Whether it's in good taste or not doesn't change that.

To me, it just seems like he had an angry outburst, which happens to everyone. It doesn't change the fact that he is a great caster, and acts very professionally when he casts. He threw a tantrum on his personal stream and used a poor choice of words. Big deal, everyone has done it. And I'm sure he learned his lesson. Hopefully others can see that, and it won't impact his casting career too much, because he really is a good caster.
