As I mentioned previously, calling something a joke implies it is devoid of any seriousness. Given that SirScoots thinks EG is serious business, he might feel inclined to see it as an insult albeit a mild one.

I actually agree with what you are saying; but can I ask why a company should care if IdrA is as he is? Not only has his personality brought more fans than haters, the fact that he acts like a dick most of the times does not mean that the products that are sponsoring IdrA are dicks aswell.

You're awesome Tyler haha. Personally I miss SotG, I haven't seen any episodes of that other show that shall not be named, not on purpose, just because I work during that earlier time and I don't care for looking up the vod or podcast, whatever. I just hope that SotG returns soon

Because Idra's antics can sometimes harm a team or company's perception by association.
Edit: Should read "how idra's team is perceived can be harmed..."

It would be great for MLG, as JP has a space in the sc2 community. Whether that is good for us, remains to be seen. Don't think so, that would mean they'd either have to stop talking about other tournaments (which would make the show pretty irrelevant) or have to be really cautious to not piss off certain people (which would be pretty stupid).
They could still talk about other tournaments. There is no other tournament in NA that competes with MLG as it is a LAN event. MLG is open to criticism (see Dallas and the aftermath that was amazing Columbus). I would like SOTG to stay the same (without MLG), but I don't think it would be bad if it was MLG sponsored.
MLG sponsorship would mean SOTG would be around for a long time.

If you dont know "what the heck all this stuff is about" maybe you should read the last few pages of the thread before defending SirScoots..
Obviously someone like Tyler isn't going to call EG a joke without good reason. I think it's pretty clear that SirScoots does not want Incontrol/Idra on SOTG which is a huge slap in the face for the community. I guess I would understand more if he wasnt such a shady person and straight up said "Yeah I don't want them on SotG because of sponsor issues/doesn't want competition with OneMoreGame." Instead he doesn't even address the issue and his only remark in this thread is a sarcastic remark which tries to make it seem like he thinks he is innocent and taking a defensive stance. Whereas the reality is he may potentially deprive the community from their favorite podcast.
Also, in the skype screenshot "I sure hope this doesn't appear on stream hahah" comment seems weird. He may be responsible for not letting Inc be a main host on SotG but doesn't want people to know this... Tyler's opinion on the professionalism of EG is justified in my opinion.
Anyways, I'm sure JP will make an announcement about whats happening soon. Thanks Tyler for fighting for SotG. No other podcast or show could replace it. Hopefully we see it come back with the same crew <3

so why didn't incontrol say that eg didn't want him to be on sotg? his explanation was that he needed more time to practice, which seems like a really stupid explanation considering he joined another similar show.
|
So, to summarize:
Incontrol leaves SotG to have more practise time. Scoots says it's no problem if he wants to still join in occasionally. Sooo we get (at least some) Incontrol on SotG. Which for most people, is probably a good thing. Then Drama. Tyler insults EG. Scoots writes some off-hand remark in response. More Drama.
Makes perfect sense.

Yes , but being inside the game is classified as "EG stuff" , and he needed more time for "EG stuff" as well.

By the way, everyone who puts the business part aside, for every time you refresh this thread, TL makes profit from you thanks tothat litle advertisement area that they were so eagerly asking people to remove adblock for.

Ads are far less intrusive and not deceptive at all compared to lying about why a person/team is not allowed on state of the game.

Personally i think that the reason he did leave is irrelevant, the way he handled it was about as good as it could be given the situation and the mass community involvement with the issue.
if i was a weatherman on tv and i had to leave because of a condition that had me involuntarily get a boner everytime i stood up i wouldnt tell everyone that specifically as my reason for leaving because that would cause more harm then good.
Edit: also im not implying anything, this is how id view this kind of situation, true or not

Maybe if you didn't mindlessly defend SirScoots and pinpoint a single sentence that could be interpreted in a negative way without understanding the context of the situation, and actually address the issues at hand I would be able to interpret your terrible communication.
