agreed. A diamond player shouldn't be able to join a team simply because they are a girl. Proves f-in sexism.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Alicia in Diamond when he was recruited?

Yeah, but honestly I'm confused about what the controversy is here, it's not like there's some scandal that netizens have latched onto and are harassing her for, it isn't something that should actually affect her reputation in this regard, it's just dicks being dicks...

I honestly feel like all the attention Jessica is drawing to everyone who says anything negative could actually be counter-productive, also it's just silly to see someone react this way when they've been in the entertainment industry themselves, you can look past it, there isn't a scandal here, it's just some assholes and she's going a step further and calling out people who simply criticized the Eve decision and aren't doing the vile threatening/pornographic stuff.

Not sure but i think it was during a season lock

we're in a season lock right now.
in korea the ladder system starts you in gold if you're good and you manually need to rank up through platinum, diamond, masters, gm. there is no auto placement into diamond. ITS DIFFERENT. FUCKING FXO BOSS explained this already.

so the fact that her new slayers account is trapped in gold, means NOTHING.

If I recall, he failed the Slayer's audition tourney, but then Boxer picked him up because he lost to Alicia on the ladder.

You have posted 23 times on this thread. Do you really feel this strongly about what Jessica did? So many people have tried to explain to you why Jessica step up to defend this girl. Numerous TL members cited various cases of celebrity suicide from similar bullying and oniontaker wrote a great post explaining Korean culture/history of Internet bully. What are you still confused about? What don't you understand?

This woman is overreacting badly. I hope that the police, unlike her, will have common sense and not arrest these people she reported to them, especially the ones that meant no harm or didn't speak in public.

If the OP is accurate, I strongly think that SlayerS_Jessica is a bitch who doesn't know shit and shouldn't run an SC2 team. I hope she doesn't report me to the police .

so the fact that her new slayers account is trapped in gold, means NOTHING.

I'm surprised to find that so many SC2 fans aren't fans of freedom of speech. Even if you accept the principle that offending people should be illegal (which I don't), having laws that arbitrate what's offensive and what isn't is a disaster. These Koreans laws are ridiculous and it's disgraceful of Jessica (or anybody) to take advantage of them.

She's in diamond excluding the ladder lock, that means she's at the very least way underperforming to be in a professional team considering about 5-10% of the SC2 players there are better than her; whereas most pro gamers only have 50-100 people better than them. I won't judge her until I actually see her play though, for all I know she's actually really good, but her league isn't helping her here.

You know, here in Germany our constitution begins with the words "Human dignity shall be inviolable." The rights guaranteeing personal freedom come after this. I think it's a pretty neat concept. Freedom won't give you much, if everyone shits on you.

Lol how does her being trapped in gold mean nothing? If she can only get into gold through her placement matches, that's pretty terribad.

You guys have to remember people aren't ragging on her 'cause she's a girl, they're ragging on her because she's a diamond player in one of the best competitive Starcraft 2 teams in the world. If this was a guy, people would be saying the same thing.

The fact that she's a girl just makes the recruitment more suspicious. This thread also wouldn't exist if it was a guy, because the only reason people care she's getting internet-trolled is because she's a girl.

I've said it before, guess I'll say it again: While I don't agree with Jessica's decision to make Eve's recruitment public the way she did and at the time she did, this in no way means that Eve deserves the type of treatment she's getting now. It doesn't matter that it seems like "they were asking for it," because in the end, it still doesn't excuse the behavior or the reactions of the netizens. If you're stumbling about drunk in the middle of the night down an abandoned street and somebody mugs you, is it your fault? Hell, no. It's the robber's fault! Was it perhaps ill-advised for you to be stumbling about drunk in the middle of the night down an abandoned street? Well, yes. But the thing is, that doesn't mean you deserve to be robbed, nor does it excuse the robber for having robbed you.
