Maybe he should just go down to the studio sometime and just apologise face to face, not for Nick or John's benefit, but for his. Anyways, best of luck to the guy.

I could see him wanting to say something instead of it just boiling under your skin. Hopefully he gets a proper shoutout! | ||

So some rambunctious fan said that he wanted to do John's job. Why did Tasteless feel the need to say anything to begin with? Like celebrities don't get strange offers from fans all the time? Like if I send a letter to Conan O'Brien saying that I want to be his producer because I think I could do a better job, should I get shouted out on the air? I think it's nice the guy apologized and all, but I really don't see why this has turned into a cross community drama. | ||

But that's not at all why Tasteless said what he did. Nothing in his speech even remotely related to telling other people that there's a "proper application procedure" or whatever. Tasteless was wrong to do this in public, and the guy who caused this was wrong to go about this the way he did. If Tasteless looked at John after the guy left and said, "What an asshole." That's fine, it's between him and John, but this was public. And I think that we'll see an apology. Bad situation and misunderstanding, that's all. | ||

Where else in this world do people walk up to professionals and say they could do a better job? Even if the guy meant no harm it was really disrespectful to John and a really dumb way to go about trying to get a job. I mean have you ever heard of email or an application or something. No other place of business would allow you to do something so arrogant or brash. I would never hire someone who even thought that was a good idea. Tasteless and John we overly nice in my opinion just to meet with the guy and then he tells them he could do a better job then John. The real kicker is that he didn't even know what Johns job was. Nice of him to apologize but it was a really dumb thing to do and I don't see how anyone can say Tasteless was out of line. Obviously people think walking up to people and asking for jobs while disrespecting them is completely fine so Tasteless made sure to address the issue so no one else would be that ignorant. I agree with u that it was disrespectfull and offesnive but does it give someone to the right to infer that, the person is subhuman i personally have an issue with that part of wat he said. Maybe its just a cultural thing but where i grew up and live if u infer to someone as subhuman e.g. dog, etc they are more likely than not going to beat the crap out of u. | ||

He really should go down and just clear things up, he would feel so much better. Once thats all said and done with, I'm sure tasteless will say on air that he came down and apologized. Would make him feel 100 times better then. | ||

The starcraft community is actually really small and our "stars" Are just average people just like everyone else. Now the way this guy went about trying to get a job was terrible, everyone knows that. To get a job like that you have to make an application, and most of the time you have to know people that are involved with gomtv, you arn't just going to get a job like that ever. That's like me going up to tasteless and saying "Hey tasteless i'm a great caster and I'm better then you let me take your job." How stupid is that? The guy who asked for the job is an idiot, and it's not a big deal anymore. | ||
