Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh, this is my current biggest pet peeve. "reddit" didn't saying anything. People said things on reddit. People always shit on "reddit" as though it's a hivemind. Fact of the matter is, there are assholes on there as there will be anywhere. Some subs are good (/r/gamedev is excellent), some are bad (/r/shitredditsays for example), some (most) have good and bad posters/content. /r/starcraft is firmly in the last category. Any thread with Scarlett, for example, brings out lots of trolls. But they get downvoted (mostly) and life goes on. Most likely, some people on reddit commented on the thread about his twitter post saying bad shit (and will have been downvoted into oblivion) and will have messaged him horrible things. He's probably in a bad place and reacted badly, as is understandable. I'm not aiming this at you in particular, just venting. | ||

Also We really need to institute that rule about no posting pictures till then account has a certain number of posts and is a certain length old. People on TL aren't better; the site is simply more heavily moderated. It works. If they were as hands-off as reddit, don't kid yourself: it wouldn't be much better on here. | ||

Note how all the people giving Wheat shit are all Destiny fanboys and a minority of TL made him out to be a Saint. Fucking lunatics. | ||

You should be fucking ashamed of yourselves" I suck at navigating Reddit. I looked at the starcraft page and didn't see anything. People are saying things like "I hope the shit is serious" "glad he is not there" etc., but some are taking things way to far like hoping his son is injured. | ||

The "bad comments" have been downvoted to the point where you have to scroll to the bottom then press the + next to the comment to even read it. http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/12jml0/djwheat_leaves_mlg_due_to_family_emergency/ the thing is that the negative comments flood in pretty quickly and if djwheat read the thread right when it was posted i don't blame him for being disgusted. | ||

Actually, he has. Just not in an interview on camera yet. You could see him walk in and out of Daisy's booth before they started their current match. | ||
