That said, it sounds from everything said by both parties that walking away from the agreement is the best outcome for everyone. I, personally, am hoping for good things in the future from both Complexity the team and Destiny the player. | ||

EULAs, Terms of Services and other internet things are agreements and not contracts, and are also not as legally binding. If you don't read every legally binding contract you sign you are being dumb. Sorry. If you have a job that requires you to sign a contract, it is in your best interest to not only read it thoroughly but pay a very cheap consultation fee and have a lawyer check it out. In a legal situation, ignorance is not a defense. Besides, Destiny said he did read it, so the point is moot. The second half of Complexity's statement kind of says to me that they are not willing to have someone as polarizing as Destiny on their team. From a business perspective, if he had better results, the backlash from his homophobic and racists remarks could possibly be handwaved. This is a good parting of ways for both sides of the coin. Complexity doesn't have to constantly excuse one of their players and Destiny can go on and do whatever he calls what he does on his stream. | ||

apart of losing respect for them is the way that post is put together I hate when companies throw out stuff like professionalism and values, those aren't very clear lines, and got the team on board with "oh no steven you just have to display professionalism and have coL values" and that means? "mute your mic" oh oh now i get it. I think Destiny has become a bigger name then coL in sc2, so maybe they got him on on board just to throw him overboard? gets people talking about coL, no such thing as bad publicity. those are just assumptions but this political correct speak definitely doesn't make them transparent, and when the community doesn't know what your trying to pull, makes us all suspicious, and not very trusting of coL management. | ||

Oh no wait I did hear something about them recently. They acquired ROOT... but not Kiwikaki or Slush... Well at least they still have some awesome personalities in Catz and Destiny... What? They released Destiny? Is Complexity a team or something? Destiny: Best of luck BROHAM! You don't need a team holding you down. ROOT was a good match for you and it is too bad that they had to move to Complexity. You'll find a new team if you want one, or not since you don't need one. Keep practising. I look forward to seeing you in the IPL! Destiny fighting! | ||

I would take a look at the history of coL for taking on outspoken players (in 1.6, and TF2) and kicking them shortly after. Either they have no idea about the scene, or just think people should change instantly for them. | ||

Please, don't insult Root by saying Destiny was their personality. Drewbie/Catz/Kiwi were. | ||

I pretty much had half a day to decide whether or not to sign, and it seemed like if I didn't sign, the deal would fall through for the rest of the team. I didn't want to mess up everyone's opportunities to move on with their career just because I felt uncomfortable, and there was nothing -too- objectionable in the contract, so I signed it. I've got to call complete bullshit on this point. It's clear from your demeanor and general lack of understanding of "the way things work" that you are fairly uneducated or, at the very least, unexposed to the realities that make it impossible to have your cake and eat it too. There's no way in hell you didn't have access to the contract until the due date... you just fucked it off and you're being transparent as hell right now. I mean seriously, you're going to take a high and mighty stance about doing things your own way and not caring about being a part of an organization or adhering to social norms of general decency, but then you turn around and you aren't even being candid in your explanation. Oh, and I'm TOTALLY sure you actually read the contract (100% sarcasm) I don't expect this to be well-received... don't care either really as I know the type of people that consider themselves your fans, but even the immature and unempathetic high school kids that watch you stream after school deserve you at least saying that YOU fucked up rather than a lame (made up) excuse that you couldn't view the contract until the due date. | ||

Hes making himself a income and is playing SC2. He is making SC2 popular with his viewers and fan base. More exposure is just better for the game. Most people that watch him understand that his use of vocabulary is all based in context and isn't degrading anyone. He's fought his opinion on many shows and his stream various time. | ||
