Its a shame that the community is so sensitive and fickle, the idea of enjoying a event and supporting a player is more difficult than ever, if there isent bitching about casters, crew, camera, sound, stream, players, language, team, prize pool, commercials but now also the crowd. In 6 months people will be complaining that the crowd arent wearing nice Armani suits, afterall wearing those plain white and black t shirts is "killing esports" as we know it. How odd that a community full of vulgar language, homophobic and racist comments is yet so sensitive when they watch a stream, the same people who find distasteful memes and jokes from 4chan funny, still has the cahoonas to take the moral high ground on something so basic and silly like a commentator cheering for Player A, and the crowd booing Player B. Something that has happened in every sporting event ever held in the history of mankind People are saying booing is pretty shitty, being a fan of a player doesn't mean you have to boo the other person. It's just really shitty and makes them feel bad. Imagine if you get to the semifinals and got booed? How would you feel? Anyways, it doesn't happen at all - or very much atleast - in individual sports so stop comparing apples and oranges. Anyway, the biggest problem isn't the booing, it's that someone was trying to sabotage Puma by shining a laser in his face. That's what most people are angry at. | ||

Ok. You got me. One sport. Either way, I can't see how people think booing is good at all.... If Socke got booed at MLG or something I can just imagine the shit storm that'd occur. I wonder if the crowd will boo mana in the 3rd place match. | ||

So glad MLG is round the corner You couldn't hear booing on the stream or it was very very quiet, but at MLG you could hear it very well (Idra vs Cruncher). I agree that the crowd isn't as enthusiastic as the MLG crowd, but most of the people there aren't at Gamescom just for SC2, because there are so few SC2 games on the mainstage. There were a lot of cheers for Kas against Socke for example. | ||
