It's very narcissistic and annoying. Good player list though! Although I do not respect Destiny as much as I once did, I'm sure his casting will be hilarious. | ||

My theory is GIGABYTE really wants to have the name end in -SL but doesn't want to violate OGN's trademark on Starleague. | ||

It's very narcissistic and annoying. esports, esport, eSports, e-Sports, e-sports, ESPORTS, E-SPORT, E-SPORTS = competitive gaming The term has been in use, on this website at least, for a very, very long time. There is nothing 'narcissistic and annoying' about it except maybe perceptually in your own mind. Its use in the title is not a demand, it is a descriptor. ESPORTS will be had regardless of the title.
And specifically about that last link in the list, something important is said: On May 02 2012 10:20 Gheed wrote: I was going to work on either a LoL blog or another bronze blog, but this stupid thread came to my attention and epitomized everything I feel is wrong with the community. It's a thread filled with people uselessly arguing about shit that doesn't matter not because they feel it's worth arguing about, but because they worry about what other people, people not even in the community, would think about it. In this particular instance, I don't feel as strongly, but this should be good food for thought. | ||
