Noel has def done something extremly stupid here but i think its unfortunet that sites like kotaku is picking up the story just because the FGC has abit of a "thug image" if you will.. (case & point: there has been other computer pro's that has done something like this but none of those stories has gotten such attention)

I think the FGC will suffer from this, we have allready seen the FGC's trying to distance it self from how the scene worked pre 2009' with the only hold out being the interaction between the two players as everyone still decides to play side by side (that at times still produce trashtalk on stream from time to time) but i dont think the FGC can sustain negative press at this point, you have great support from Namco, Capcom & Netherealm (that the FGC cannot live without at this point) and a very important title comming from Nintendo within a year' this isnt the time you gamble as a community and as such i think the FGC will loose what sets that community apart from the other pro scenes (dota, sc2, lol) and go full on professionalism just how the Sc2 scene had to do (and Incontrol was way ahead of the curve on this a few years back overall to the benefit of the community)

edit: I dont think change is going to be made just because of this but lately you have had other factors going into it aswell.

Nitendo's importance to the further growth of the FGC with the new Smash title, if EVO can get further support from Nintendo that would do alot for the FGC and Nintendo is very protective with its image, so this is something that would factor into Nintendo's decision to get into the FGC if they know about it.

The importance of the support from Capcom, Netherealm & Namco Bandai cannot be discribed and just like Nintendo they would not want to be assosiated with the FGC if it hurts their reputation.

The match Collusion debacle and now this, its alot of negative in a very short span..

Really sad. From what I've heard, he pushed her forcefully to the ground because he walked in on her banging another guy. Does this deserve 5 years in prison? Hell no.

"violation of ptr" is probably violation of probation which courts take very seriously

I'm sure they do, I just don't think he should be in jail or on probation in the first place.

Worth noting: the emphasis on improved netcode is theirs. That shit is bold underlined on the steam store itself. =')
