I'm fine with it, since they already made a statement. If they stayed quiet I wouldn't be.

People are overreacting...

It would be an issue if they censored it and did nothing to resolve the issue, but they've made a public statement saying that they have already fixed the 'problem' if there even was one.

Have 0 problems with them snipping this out, they made a direct statement addressing the issue for the fans who were bothered. I'd be more annoyed if they don't actually take steps to address it.

I think I remeber that there is a door and a curtain. You can see it in one of the jinro (not the idra game) or boxer games where they go to their opponent after the match. I might be wrong, but I dont want to search for it all day.


I'm not so sure- I'm watched a LOT of the matches, and I've never seen anyone open a door.

The camera never goes behind the booth, where the door is. The door is covered by curtains

don't care if there's 10 doors. There's either no door, or it's made of bubble wrap. Otherwise, they surely would have mentioned the door here:

"Players felt uncomfortable about soundproofing earset and headset, and pointed out sound curtain is too big. So we have used only headset without an earset and eased sound curtain. Behind of Jinro's booth, there is a speaker. All these circumstances made the issue today. "

The curtain and headsets are clearly what they are relying on to reduce the sound, even if there is a door.

If they fix the problem then there is no need to edit out what jinro said, and if they don't fix the problem editing is hiding the problem. At best editing takes information from the spectators, and I don't understand why people think that is a good thing.

I hope they go back and edit all the comments about pre-1.2 balance. I wouldn't want any future watchers to get confused. It could hurt eSports!

I acknowledge that the culture there may be different, that doesn't mean I cannot apply my own judgment of what constitutes ethical behavior when deciding how to spend my own money. And even so, I'm buying the English service aren't I? If one wanted to give some sort of multicultural excuse for what I think is bad behavior, then if I'm watching an English stream they should know enough about Western culture to know how upset many of their foreign viewers would be. Thanks for the reply though

He's not saying that it's fine because it's Korea or whatever, he's saying that it's not such a big deal even if it's stupid.
We're not trying to convince you to forgive GOM for this, we're trying to say that this is not deal, not because covering stuff up is okay but because this isn't really a coverup. Obviously you may not agree, but I think people are taking the wrong conclusions out of some posts.

They responded immediately with their press statement, I'm fine with them not wanting to look bad forever.

"we are really sorry about the balance issues, and are aware of it. Every single blizzard member got a smack on the bottom. The feeling of this will never expire."
However, blizzard is not gomtv.

How does releasing a statement make it ok to remove information from the video? If anything they should have added the statement. How is removing context of the statement helpful to either GOM or spectators?

they were probably just trying to remove it for crowd control purposes. what does it matter whether they document their mistake for everyone to see? what matters to me is that they admit they made a mistake and they fix it, which they did. i feel like there is a huge double standard here, of people thinking GOM should broadcast their faults to the world when no one here would if they could avoid it

apparently the streisand effect applies here, but perhaps they weren't aware of such a thing. i do think if they truly wanted to tone down the awareness of the issue, they should've just let it be. i don't think it's the best way to handle it, but i don't think they are being suspicious or shady by doing this and that many people in this thread are overly critical

The problem was that they admitted it, and then removed something that gave context to what they admitted and the match. One can make an argument that its exaggerated now, but that doesn't mean their logic was flawed.

That press release was definitely the right decision, cutting the interview on the other hand was a pretty bad move. Not sure what i should think about this.

Also, Blizzard should stop numbering patches. No reason to document their mistakes. It's enough to say they took care of balance problems.
