You're either a PBU or skipped reading the 10 commandments as you were asked to.

idra calling MKP bad, could be see as silly, but its same as forum poster x calling incontrol bad.

edit: just using an example, I <3 me some incontrol, he just gets way too much hate

I think Idra quite literally thinks that MKP is a bad player and wins because of luck due to his random builds, and not because of skill. It's really weird to listen to, and even if this is the true opinion of Idra, he should tone his criticism down because such a nonsensical stance puts him in a bad light.

of course that is not an acceptable approach to a discussion. But if you're having difficulty accepting that people have been building bunkers down the ramp from naturals on certain maps since basically forever, then I don't know what to tell you. It's a really weird and dismissive and completely unreasonable thing to assume that I have never made a bunker to for example block a quick third or to create a staging point for a siege tank push. But I'll just have to try and remember your username and remind myself that this is how you "discuss" and that you're not actually worth the time.

Also, learn to quote properly. Just bolding sections in a quote is really messy and makes responding to you way more work than it's worth.

The difference is that idra labels him a bad player that gets undeserved wins, something which I doubt you would agree with.

Idra's opinion on MKP is not dictated by gameplay. He hates MKP because he wants his fans to hate MKP. MKP is a threat to Idra's ego, because everytime they met MKP used the dumbest starts and he still managed to beat him with it. He humiliated him in public, of course now he hates him.

Or you can think Idra is dumb enough to think MKP is bad. Which is possible, but unlikely imo. One can't be that delusional.

I think you might be giving Idra too much credit there. He doesn't strike me as someone who would attempt to manipulate his fanbase like that. And thus far, all of his rage and antipathy towards various players (remember Cruncher?) seemed very genuine. I wouldn't put it past him to actually believe MKP is bad, and that he only wins because SC2 is fucking stupid, and so forth.

how on earth is this still going on
avilo is a joke of a person, anyone who has watched him play, read anything hes written, or heard anything hes said knows that. he kind of tried to act presentable on the show, but he opened up trying to bitch at geoff and then as soon as i started talking he was talking over me and saying i agreed with him when i didnt.

i was very short with him because i know his past outside the show and know he's not worth dealing with. just because someone tones it down once they get a big stage to preach their bullshit from doesnt make them any less of a waste of time. jp brought him on for some cheap laughs, he shouldntve done that and hes apologized, both publicly and to me, and it wont happen again. but avilo isnt supposed to be taken seriously and the fact that this has generated pages of discussion is absurd.

Lol. What past is that? Writing opinions on a forum? You act like I have some criminal record somewhere or have personally hurt you @_@. Your ego is the problem.

JP apologized to you? For what, making you guys look like arrogant people with huge egos/high schooler mentalities? You guys managed that yourselves. How I acted, and you may find this hard to believe Idra...is how I normally act. How you acted...is how you normally act. It speaks for itself.

People can take me seriously if they deem my input valuable or not. Your cool kid bandwagon will end eventually, and people will realize there's a ton of people in this community more valuable than you guys, with more class than you guys, that build others up along with themselves instead of trying to knock people down.

You guys will mature eventually.
