Trolls thrive off of sarcastic humor. Bullies thrive off of schadenfreude. The former really hurts nobody in 99% of cases. The latter hurts ESports.

The mere fact that an image is created by pshopping a face onto someone else's nude does not automatically mean that the image is defamatory or abusive. If photoshopping inappropriate pictures of a 16 year old girl onto porn actresses is not considered "severe harm" for the 16 year old, then what is? Moral high ground in every argument? Because I continuously mention the severity of Korean netizens while you keep bringing up how you would want to live in a world with critics and dissension?

I dont give a flying fuck what kind of retarded laws they have in Korea. A he-said/she-said defamation case cannot justifiably be handled in any way other than to throw the case out entirely. Anything else lands you rapidly on a slippery slope to censorship of all kinds. Yes. Apologized for. Not caused jail time, fines, or any kind of criminal punishment whatsoever. There is a big difference. You are an exemplary lesson in irony. | ||

Btw, your posts in this thread need to "manner up," regardless of your views on internet free speech. Eve is 22 if I'm not mistaken, doing the same for a 16 year old may have other penalties relating to minors. I don't see why you used a 16 year old as an example when it's not relevant to this case, unless you're trying to incite a response about age appropriation, there is none, it wouldn't be appropriate in regards to a 16 year old, it's not appropriate in regards to a 22 year old, but when it comes to the 16 year old, you have more going for you when you prosecute. Regardless, when you're famous, this stuff is essentially a part of what happens. Do I feel bad for Eve? Not really. If I could get put on SlayerS out of Gold league and sit next to Cella at the GSTL I would likely not give a flying fuck about people posting that stuff online. | ||

This troubles me that in korea you can get sent to jail for something you say which is rather preposterous. Now harassment is an entirely different subject but that usually takes at least fifty threatening messages before it is even looked into (made up number but it is quite a few though). feel sorry for the slayers fan though, just offering some constructive criticism :/. lol, most of the people that jessica is suing is in fact the ones that were harassing. she obviously isn't suing people that gave constructive criticism. although I do agree on some parts that she is over reacting, I've seen the photoshopped pictures and the posts myself and I don't think she's over reacting to those at all. there were photos of eve's face photoshopped into porn screenshots with things written below defaming the entire slayers team or jessica or boxer etc. oh and also, suing over internet matters is more common over there in korea, it's a different matter. celebs have committed suicide because of all the harassment on the internet, it's much more serious there. | ||

You would be wrong to think you can get away after verbally (sexual or not) abusing someone in real life. as i said you can make arguments as to why it is not complete freedom of speech but your a bit wrong in what your saying there, i can verbally tear down someone as long as it is not sexual and the police will not get involved, but of course it could start a fight this is rather different then getting arrested by the police now sexually ,yes you could get some minor problems with that but as i do not intend to do that i do not need to know anything on that subject at all now i said harassment was an entirely different subject which is abusing someone repeatedly verbally and donig things of that nature repeatedly is abuse please think before your post as you are somewhat lacking in intelligence | ||

I heard that there have been numerous suicides in SK over internet flaming etc., so when thinking of it in that context, and considering the fact that Eve was (reportedly) feeling very upset, I believe Jessica's actions are somewhat justified. I can understand being protective over Eve, Jessica obviously wants to show that a woman can be very successful in SC2. My faith is restored in humanity. Thank you. | ||

No, but it doesn't fucking anything. It's the most obvious photoshop in the world just based on the skin color which you can see even with the censored pixelation. Do I think it's appropriate? No. Am I totally fine with it? No. Does it fucking matter? No. She's a gold league player in SlayerS. I could honestly not see myself giving a flying fuck in that position. Focus on proving that you have the skills the stand with the rest of the team and move forward. There's no point getting hung-up on random assholes on the internet when you have an opportunity that very few others get. | ||

The suicides are more a cultural pride issue than an internet trolling issue. I mean look at Lindsey Sporrer, she got a similar shitstorm on her first Nasl day, but she focussed on the positive things and totally ignored the haters. I don't think Jessica is helping Eve at all with this. All this negative energy can seriously take it's toll. The more Jessica will fight this, the more it will grow and the more upset it will make Eve. Helping her would be learning her to ignore the trolls and focus on her fans. | ||
