So much you don't know and you still judge. i agree, she could very well be doing the those things, this practicing you mentioned, and more while dealing with this as a 'sensitive' 16 y/o i'm not her, so how can i say whether any of this is morally correct or wrong? you are not her, and you are not slayers_jessica, how would you explain to your parents that assholes on the internet are doing some depressing stuff to ruin your image? now my assumption would be that you'd say it's part of the job great profession right there | ||

And now so many more will see those images, that's counter productive. If anything this will spur people to make more of them. Not cool but I can't see how suing will help anyone. | ||

And you appear so holier than thou, on your mighty high horse attacking me for voicing my opinion. IT'S MY OPINION, I respect your thought process, and I have already said that I don't condone sexual harassment in any way. All I'm trying to say is often the best way emotionally of dealing with harassment is not to take it seriously. The moment you let those images get to you and start affecting how you do job is a problem. Are you going to brandish your pitchfork at me because I'm playing the devil's advocate? I'm saying she shouldn't focus on the negatives, and focus on being the best player she can be. How am I being arrogant saying that? | ||

The people actually in favor of internet censorship because they want revenge on some twitter or 4chan trolls who hurt their feelings probably have no concept of how lucky they really are. | ||

Someone said something mean to someone else on the internet? Eat it up. If you're a female and you join a progaming team and you might not be as skilled as the other members - get ready to get flamed for all those reasons. This debate isn't about white knighting or affirmative action towards females in progaming scene, it's about the time people look past such differences in a game where you use your knowledge, experience and critical thinking. In modern world, you must look beyond cultural differences (especially when you enter something that is international). This is a case of walking down a street where "Fuck you" is written on the wall and getting offended by that. Will you go to the police because of that? Starcraft community is taking itself too damn seriously. Some things do not truly matter ("Oh my god, he called down a mule as he was winning!"), learn to look past them. There's a lesson in everything, and if you want everybody to see you, you have to accept that not everybody will see you how you like to be seen. Play, watch, learn and enjoy. Don't be so self-indulgent, some of you. Some of you that go to the korean police because of internet matters, especially. How she acts and what she is about to do is stupid. That's the end of that. | ||

I f*** love this. There is a thin line between trolling and actual hating and I hope she gets her case and teaches those guys a lesson, because its pure defamation! | ||

It s understandable that Jessica wants to punish everyone because it s hard to draw a line between "acceptable insults" and "insults you ll take to the police", especially when you re already outraged. Plus I m not familiar with Korean culture but I d assume lacking respect is a serious thing there. Anyways I hope SlayerS will sor it out and punish people who deserve to be, and I d also like to wish Eve good luck in Slayers! It s always exciting for us to follow one of their new players! | ||
