"I begin to vigorously insult his ignorance and guessed that he was in high school without knowing anything about him, based on his bandwagon-ishness and ignorance. I proceed to recommend he kill himself." He didn't even mention who did the BMing, and you feel the need to come in and defend yourself, seems like you do let it bother you. | ||

Personally I feel it should be a fine/dq if you use shit like that, it really needs to be cut down... If I remember correctly Major said somthing bad to other play during game at mlg(?) And he got warning from that or somthing like that | ||

I've apologized publicly, I've apologized to HwangSin on a skype call, everything is fine in the world, but you apparently think I'm the modern day Starcraft 2 Hitler. I apologize to anyone who was offended, I said this in a chat channel with about 30 people in it. I didn't say this on stream, i didnt post this all over the internet, my intentions were never to insult anyone outside HwangSin, which was clearly a lapse in composure, and I apologized. HwangSin and I, have both apologized to eachother for our argument on a skype call, and we have moved on with no hard feelings. I have no issue with HwangSin, or the asian community whatsoever, and again I apologize if you were offended. I think its the threat of violence that leads my interpretation. When someone says "I hope you get cancer and die" or even "I'm gonna rape your sister" we all know that's not serious. But your's seemed realistic enough that you might actually mean it. And "I apologize if you were offended" isn't a very genuine apology. | ||

It's the thoughts behind the words and not the words themselves. And in Spades' case the thoughts seem pretty obvious. Besides, this was a tourney where Spades was representing RGN, not a ladder game I'm tired of hearing this tbh, I don't care what context someone chooses to use the N word in. I don't like hearing that offensive word in any context at all and should never be rationalized. it's pathetic that this is the mentality of a large majority of people... sigh | ||

Just pointing out that the Spades quote isn't even justifiable under the "context argument." | ||

In no way I want to implicate myself in this, but did you seriously post a screenshot of yourself being a douchebag to someone else, boast for no reasons, encourage him to commit suicide, and then whine that that person is not mannered? Mind boggling. | ||

Personally though? Ladder is a game, don't take it so seriously. Tournaments might be a bit different but the two of you are professionals who do this for a living. Getting pissed off to this point simply hurts your image as a players and the image of SC2 in general. | ||

There are a lot of players (pros as well) who sometimes bad manner, but they happen to do it in a more private way (aka P.M, or chat on bnet) and not in public so it actually never appears as thread on TL. Move on. If HwangSin and Spades can do that, why can't we? | ||

If you just go look at the confusing bm thread, you'll see a ton worse shit than anything Spades or some guy that told you to go kill yourself. Who gives a shit, people over the internet rage and say dumb stuff all the time. There is a difference between being a keyboard warrior and touting guns and knives threatening people. Either way, I don't see BM hurting "the scene"...i just see another horrible threads making over-exaggerated claims about the impact of small isolated incidents. Everyone just either needs to ignore each other or say sorry and be professional about it. Move on. | ||

I don't think Spades is a very mannered player, neither am I, but making a huge deal out of it... seriously guys.

Move on. If HwangSin and Spades can do that, why can't we? I agree with you. What I don't know if you're considering is that racially / sexually charged comments are not the same as "FUCK YOU ZOMG WHY I LOSE I SO MAD!" The fact that everyone does it doesn't make it less immature. We should definitely move on, but I hope people learn from it at least. | ||
