How about just having some of the big tournaments on the calendar?

Because people are retarded enough to buy it on marketplace :p
That's how steam works.
Can't wait for next International, making monthly salary in few hours is always fun.

You can just add them :p

Receiving death threats and being bullied in general must suck and take out any enjoyment you could have playing the game. And all of that for what are still speculations.
You feel bad for someone who has the mentality to withhold an exploit for 2 months? Look at these guys. + Show Spoiler +
You should give pity and benefit of the doubt to people who deserve it. Not just everyone blindly.

Yes I do?
I don't really like Fnatic, never did (partly because of that exact video), but that doesnt mean I would not feel bad for them.

Honestly his post is pretty accurate about the community. I really don't understand why people have to be so mean to eachother, life is already hard enough as it is without others making it harder for one another. I don't think he's cheating personally, but I guess time will tell.

Personally I don't think TL would ever cover CS, but a sub-forum doesn't sound like too far out of an idea. Cool! Someone who's been around for some time and has a high post count should probably get into contact! Anyone? Easiest way would probably be to get one of the bigger/more invested posters here to make a thread in the website feedback forum. Just ask whether the admins would be open to it, and list some of the arguments for getting one. Things like * how many TL members are active in the csgo subcommunity * what things the TL CSGO community do together * how many pages this thread grows during events (is there enough interest to warrant separate tourney threads) * are there any very highly ranked players who are active here * what kind of things would be possible that currently aren't would all probably help show you were actually serious and had some numbers to back it up, and might make them actually consider the idea rather then just glancing it over. If you look at LoL as an example of a non covered game that has a subforum, there are several mods who play (including neo, who's been in the LoL scene for YEARS and sometimes writes for riot,) many very high elo players actively posting, 30+ people who post near daily, off topic thread there is the most active thread on tl iirc, very large threads for every bit match including weekly lcs and guides all over the place. You'd just have to convince them that CSGO could be that or better, and that they'd be able to get a few admins (or at least hammers) to spend time moderating it. Also highlighting what open space there is in the csgo community that TL could fill with a forum, (maybe pointing out the failings of other forums) and what kind of content could come from TL that isn't coming from anywhere else.
I could try. I do not have a lot of posts but I´m pretty old here I think.

Life is mostly really hard because people are mean to each other. If you think about it, like 99% + of the world's problems occour because people only think about their own feelings and don't care for everyone else.

Exactly. We need a better forum for cs.

I by no means approve the stuff thrown at fnatic, but at the same time I feel it was pretty much bound to happen with the way the community and the internet work in general. DHW at the door, most people with some credibility in the scene were very careful with their words and all that was left was people throwing nasty stuff at each other.
When SC2 had the spades incident, Catz sat down with the replays and talked about them. Stuff like that helps to calm things down. Without any properly moderated discussion and no influential people being reasonable, it's going to go this way.
I don't know if fnatic themselves could have really dodged the nasty stuff, but their damage control has been pretty much negilible too. For the first two weeks the only statement I saw from them was pretty much "You make me laugh" or so. Obviously the questionable boost didn't help things either, neither did the forfeit without much of a statement. Of course it's unpleasant stuff for them anyway, but you still have to handle the PR stuff properly too.
There's a lot of stuff bonkers in the community and Fnatic ended up getting some of the nastiest stuff in it. Unfortunate definitely, but looking at it afterwards also quite predictable. I hope the community, team and tournament managements take notes on this one because the community itself isn't going to change much on its own, no matter how pleasant surprise that would be.

It's the way things happened, and how the team handled it during DHW.
Flusha was getting a lot of hate already, mainly stemming from the usual Reddit hate train (like the mods on that side EVER do anything about). Then in DHW, they go ahead and pull off one of the most hated and game breaking boost spots you can do. THEN on top of that, they counter LDLC's complaint with something that is used quite regularly. THEN LDLC was pushed out of the way, their complaint took 6 hours while Fnatic's took 30 minutes. (While LDLC wasn't allowed to speak to the admins when Fnatic was).
Fnatic and their CS:GO team handled things the most terrible way possible. I don't know what the hell they are doing recently but they have been creating drama left and right. (DotA 2 and the way they handled Era, and eventually breaking up the Fnatic team that has been together for so long).
Fnatic and Flusha aren't gaining any sympathetic votes for themselves. And he goes to release this? How is THIS going to help his or his team's situation? Especially for DHW when they were laughing on stream when they did that boost 12 rounds in a row, effectively winning off of it? The internet will always have people without a brain, the hate-train people ride on constantly and don't think for themselves. But this is absolutely Fnatic and Flusha's fault. They haven't done anything to quell all of the issues, just trying to side step it and attack the community for it.
You should be talking to the fans, and people who are normal and can think for themselves. You will always have haters, always. Grouping everyone into that hate group going around is just going to make things worse. Not better.

I'm not condoning the flak they receive, but you can replace one word in his analogy (community with society) because not many people have pity and kindness toward criminals/poor/etc. For better or for worse they aren't morally sound individuals from what we've seen. I rather err on the side of caution, than forgiveness.

I think me and Steveling would be perfect mods for CSGO sub forum.

So, what do you think? Put it on the marketplace for like 25€? 50? 100? Or just try to trade it?
