He makes fun of everyone. And the community reacts because Avilo is younger and less known? Go watch any past state of the game. He makes fun of Idra, JP, Day9, Artosis and all others. This is not bullying. It's Geoff being Geoff. Avilo was twisting Idra's words to make it seem like Idra was supporting his point. He didn't let Idra finish his arguments, and THAT is why Idra got pissed. Anyone would have. You included. Even saint9 would have gotten angry. Cutting him off? Are you kidding me. JP had no choice at this point. It was getting out of hand and he did the only thing right and even explained it towards the end of the show. | ||

You clearly don't know the difference between funny banter between friends and actual bullying. | ||

I'm sorry but it's blatantly obvious that Incontrol's huge ego has made him into a bully, I'm surprised you can't tell the difference between shooting the shit with his friends and what went on during the show. Now some people might not care and that's fine, but don't say their opinion is wrong because It's not. | ||

An opinion is an opinion and therefor, by definition, cannot be wrong. I was arguing for my opinion. To use your own words "I'm surprised you can't tell the difference". | ||

Incontrols behavior over recent months is just going to make him less relevant which in my opinion is a good thing as we need new people with fresh things to say and hopefully they are mature about it. Unlike Idra who still could get back to the top of the scene as he has strong mechanics, Geoff s only famous for being famous. Piss off enough people by bullying, belittling and humiliating others and what credibility you have dwindles real fast. PS QXc handled himself exemplary...hope he is one of those new stars to replace the old. | ||

To use your own words "I'm surprised you can't tell the difference". I should have chosen my words better, you're right. I apologize ( I've been up for wayyy too long ) Anyway my original point still stands, it's not the same as when he " makes fun " of people he considers equal to him in social status. This is him deciding someone is not worthy of his respect because he is not as famous or important as him. ( well more along the lines of how important he thinks he is, which is the ego part I was talking about. ) | ||

I have nothing to add to the conversation beyond my praise for that Vlog, as it said everything I would say and probably said it better. | ||

SOTG just oozes with over-inflated, juvenile egos from certain co-hosts/regular guests at this point. And Kennigit is absolutely right, these people are completely replaceable as far as the over-all quality of the scene goes, or even just in terms of entertainment value. I hope it sorts itself out, because there's a lot of potential for the show to become interesting again when the HOTS beta starts up, as a result of developments in the actual state of the game. But with the horrible state of the show currently, they're in no way in a position to capitalize on this potential | ||

I think this ego thing was most clearly visible at that night. Allright he was probably drunk as hell, but still if you aren't able to form good sentences, then just don't talk. Mia was about to cry, it was only DjWheat who came in to recuperate some of that situation. As much as I didn't like ep71 I think you are exaggerating on 'Mia was about to cry', I remember that episode and she was handling it fine IIRC. | ||
