He actually lets idra finishes talking unlike certain mad baby that loves to interrupt people and call people bad when he has NO RESULTS just because you can't fully grasp his points doesn't make it invalid. Sure, he overexaggerates, but many of his points are what terran feels right now did you really argue that idra has no results?.. REALLY? idra as bad as his slump has been is still one of the most succesful foreigners to date, whereas avilo hasn't done shit I stand corrected, idra has NO RESULTS. He's not in a slump, he has NO RESULTS.He is as good as Jinro is in my book, except Jinro is actually likable. you don't talk down to someone just because he is not as successful than you. Does MVP being best player in sc2 gives him the right to stump on lesser player like Idra?

Well the qxc/IdrA discussion was really good and I got a few ideas to try on the ladder.
The rest, well... kind of funny, then just uncomfortable.

At first I thought the community was bad with drama and giving unnecessary flak to certain players, but to see it from these so called "representatives" of eSports is a little disappointing. JP invites Avilo on to show purely to create drama and not for any productive reasons to further the development of the game, which is what the show should be about, discussions about the state of the game. I'm not a fan of Avilo, but to verbally insult someone and then kick them off the show before they even finish their point is just rather disgusting to see. Avilo didn't even personally attack any of the show hosts but when QXC explains Avilo's arguments, everyone listens objectively. This just shows that they didn't even care about what Avilo even had to say, and all they wanted to do was create drama and look down on players who have legitimately dedicated their time to this game. "You're bad and what you say doesn't matter." And then JP tries to say he did it for the better of the show...? Why bother inviting someone if you already know what's going to happen. The very thing that these hosts advocate, which is how much shit the community shouldn't give to people to start drama, they're doing it themselves.

So Avilo made absolutely no sense and was debating poorly, and the SotG guys acted like douchebags. Can't we all just agree on that?

EDIT: I think incontrol not being able to tell if he was going to be around on the 4th makes me think it more
If he is not casting Code A I don't see the point for this anymore. He clearly realises that he frankly can't compete at the very high end and is rightfully shifting towards casting etc..

Seriosuly, you are bad at this game, you are not close to the koreans, the EU zergs and a bunch of na zergs roflstomp you, ur just a pr guy, you should not be telling terrans what to do since you can't even play zerg at the highest level. You are also a hypocrite and just a mean and bad mannered person in general and someday you will probably pay the price. I despise you and I am not alone in the sc2 community to do so.

hindsight is a wonderful thing.

Can't believe what I just heard. Regardless of what Avilo was saying, these supposed 'pillars' of the community are classless. Who invites a guest on after berating him, then is rude to him, then boots him from the show with no warning. No shout-outs or 'goodbyes' either, like have been afforded other guests either. It felt like bullying, which is pathetic.
JP, part of your job as host is to moderate discussion. If your balance discussion strategy is to boot the person Idra is cursing at then you need to reevaluate. If anything, you needed to tell Idra to be respectful or shut-up.

Yes. But there's actually people in this thread that think Avilo was making good points...

It wasn't to please chat, it was to troll that kid and get a rage reaction out of Greg which was guaranteed because he thought for some reason that would be entertaining to the viewers. Anyone could see that. It was a farce from the get go.

you've been bashing Idra in the past 5 pages as often as you can, please just stop.
I also like how you think he cares about the opinion of 1 random person over the internet.

Best SOTG in forever. The QXC/Idra "Great Debate" was great for you "mature adults," but the Avilo/Idra "Hang up on him, I'm not going to talk to him anymore" clusterfuck was hilarious the entire way through. Right up to where Avilo tried to twist Idra's point about letting the Zerg get too far in economy for his own side, and Idra shut him down in the form of JP hanging up.
Perfection. Thank you so much. Made my night. Everyone joking and laughing up to, and after Avilo really lent the podcast a more old school feel that, now that I've seen it again, I realize I miss. Keep it up!

Comparing Idra to Jinro is just retarded... Compared to Jinro Idra can actually be considered consistant, rofl. Jinro's last blaze of glory was start of 2011(unless Iforget something), while Idra's last blaze of glory was a really good run at Orlando, and winning IEM Guangzhou and ASUS ROG which was over half a year after Jinro had anything to boast of whatsoever(Again, unless I am forgetting somethingabout Jinro)
TL;DR Comparing Idra to Jinro resultswise is fucking retarded
