Is this guy serious? He really thinks this will do the job?

Does he seriously think this(utterly useless post that is filled with NO explanations and empty sounding apologies)
will keep him from getting out of the pit that he's currently it?

It feels like he saw how IPL's message had people giving them props for apologizing and thought,
"This is my way out! I'll just apologize a bunch and try to impress people with promises for the future and I'll be
able to keep myself out there and do stuff in E-Sports!"

I think Idra's comments on the Milkis thread is a lot more appropriate for this thread.

Gus, a lot of people have spoken to you, man. You've fucked a lot of people over (you know who I'm talking about). People who put a lot of trust in you despite the word going around (and believe me, word went around. I'm not even in the country and I heard a LOT of stuff even before PGF went down).

This apology doesn't even cover anything. You're not on Skype, you're not on YM, you're not on FBC even though you're actively censoring PPSL's fanpage as we speak. The fact is, this "apology" is the first thing anyone's heard anything from you - and doesn't even address anything. Try harder, bro.

This clears up nothing and there are piles and piles of evidences from numerous people against your actions. You have deceived many, many people while you were "busy", or should I say getting "wasted by tasteless, daym".

Don't you dare think you can resolve everything by with your vague "there were budget issues" excuses.

I love how you use "We" as often as possible in that garbage apology and are trying to diffuse the blame onto others, when in fact, you are the only guy responsible for all the lies and screw-ups.

I hope you will never be allowed to work with anyone in the progaming community again.

To be brutally honest, Most would have forgiven you if you made a sincere apology and paid the according restitution.

but WHAT in the name of the devil is this US$13000 missing which you haven't paid???

And YoonYJ's flight money? IPL gave you the money right? Where did that go???

Bro. I know sometimes police and what not in SEA countries take bribes and embezzle money, but this is E-SPORTS!!!

Your message: we made small technical mistakes along with screwing 4-6 players out of the event in which was promised, not counting the unpaid staff members that we didn't mention. I HOPE YOU GUYS DON'T KNOW WE OWE $13,000 to a person that is in limbo. We also screwed several HoN participants which we won't mention. We won't mention where the prize money went for that either. We also don't want to tell you where all the money meant to support this event went as well. IGN says we have it, but we won't talk about it. But hey, we're sorry for all the mistakes we mentioned, and that should settle everything we fucked up on, am I right?

You just fucked yourself with this empty apology that explains nothing.

How come no one accepts this guy's apology?

Sorry, I have been reading a lot about this story and have no clue what is going on still (what the fuck is the ppsl, something ign sponsored, why is there a tournie in the phillipines? was like idra and such normal people there? anyways...), but my ignorance aside, why does no one believe this guy?

I can (sort of) understand if you don't like him, but is it a matter of you don't believe him? I mean stealing, bad management, whatever, as long as this guy isn't on the lamb, can't he just simply be held accountable for any missing money? Besides legal action, it doesn't exactly sound like he's trying to run away.

I mean if he's incompetent, I get it. Great. But besides 'sorry' for management issues that we just do better about next time, the issue of problems that can be fixed, isn't he going to fix it? Do you guys not believe him or something?

I mean doesn't someone from TL know where this guy is right? Is he just in the bahamas right now with loads of cash, or is he somewhere, after saying he'll correct the situation?

I want to know where you got this money to fly your team member from Australia over, that you couldn't use to fly YJY over as well as this $12,900 USD that is missing, putting two of your staff, and ex-friends(I say ex, because who would want to be friends with this scum after they abandon you to pay that amount of money?), lifes at stake in prison?

you owe so much more apologies and for the YJY case this is not acceptable, nor for the cube team situation, you have to step down and give back all the money asap sir

I hope this doesn't mean bad things for the IPL.

MLG needs some real competition. It sucks that MLG can't change anything mid-season, but maybe they should lose viewers for that anyway. Only the best should survive.

Isn't this run as a company, why are people running around signing things on themself?

There must be company that have recived the money from IGN etc. Would be mighty interesting to look at the books.
