Argh - Calm the fuck down people - Its all just banter between the two best dutch SC2 players, geez...

I thought it was funny as hell =)

damn so much hate in what was a great fun thread. If I write a Grubby X Feast fanfiction would the Grubby fanboys calm down?

Nah you need to write grubby x ret there is clear tension and ret simply wants to make grubby jealous by taking on his own partner.

But then.... who's dominant and who's submissive?
Ret X DeMusliM, Ret dominant
Grubby X Feast, Grubby dominant
Grubby X Ret/Ret X Grubby it's a toss up it goes either way.

That's exactly why there is tension, both are competing to make the other come over with their partners.

Heh, Grubby should thank Ret - he generated more e-hits for Grubby. I haven't even heard of the original Grubby partnership announcement, got it only from the responses in this thread. Ret rullez!

Hrm, the post could have been funny but it was done in poor taste with some rather strong homophobic undertones. TeamLiquid players are starting to push the BM line these days.... really only Sheth and Hero that aren't crossing lines. Definitely disappointed in Ret after this, and am wondering where the Liquid name will go in the future of SC2.

Anyways, I'm sure all of this was meant in good jest, but imo it was just done in poor taste.


Post like these makes me wonder how humanity is going to be in 10 years time

Why do so many people think this is fucking funny. Is it the cool thing now to bash on another progamer's thread about helping somebody out. I don't care if you don't think the mentor-ship that Grubby is doing is going to work, trolling him about it is useless and doesn't mean much.

Ret vs Grubby is currently 6-5. So yea, Ret your so baller for smashing Grubby LOL.

Grubby is a God, while you will never ever achieve the things he has in his life. I actually used to like you Ret, just felt that you needed somebody to mentor you, because you make the same exact mistakes now as you did 6 months ago, which is ironic because you make fun of a programer that has done litterally 3x as much as you for trying to help someone out. Maybe you should ask if Grubby can give you some tips? Because while your skill is stagnating Grubby is better every single day. I just lost the little respect I did have for you


Holy shit, relax. Grubby and Ret are obviously friends in real life. You, on the other hand, are not friends with of them and don't truly know their personalities. Grubby probably doesn't give a shit about this troll so I don't understand why all you fanboys are getting your panties in a bunch over this. Just calm down and carry on with your life.

No we have Jersey Shore for that. Or we can "just be nice", without someone instantly making fun of it.


Jersey shore isn't banter, I have no idea how you can think that?


About the "level" of class and humor. About the need to jump on something that can't possibly be a bad thing, yet Ret couldn't repress is urge to make fun of it.


Really? Ret = Jersey shore? that's your point this post is as classy as jersey shore?? hmm leave it to a German to take the fun out of the situation.

JOKING THAT IS BANTER DO NOT GET UPSET I AM SORRY I WILL SEND RICE KRISPIE TREATS AS NEEDED TO REMEDY THE SITUATION.


Oh yes, of course. When I see someone doing something nice, my first reaction is not wanting to make fun of it.

And the bold part is exactly the very level of class I'm talking about. What you and others might think to be funny. It's the same joke as "hehe he said wiener". Some think it's brilliant, others not.

I guess only WhiteRa and Sheth are genuinely nice :-)

You are so wrong,Grubby's manner is good as WhiteRa's.

Grubby is always been good manner and player in warcraft 3 scene.

You sure?

His opponent was Eric. Eric was "one of the best" flamer und unmannered man. He has a natural talent to attacking everyone, even to grubby, sometimes/often very aggressive. At official matches he wasnt aggressive.

Please dont jump in and start bashing my posts when you haven't read the whole thread or even all of my posts.
I agree, this was all done in good fun, but it was done incorrectly. It also shouldn't be in sc2 general, shouldve been blog and Ret should have added context to it so people didn't overreact. All in all this is only going to generate more fans for Grubby and less for Ret. People (like myself) are angry (i'll admit were prolly overreacting) because of some of the snide remarks he made. Ret couldve done this post so much better and it been a hit. Good idea, bad execution. I have nothing against Ret as a player as a whole, he just really shoulda put more effort to make sure this was a post worthy of reading and not as bad as it was. I guarantee, if i copy/pasted exactly what Ret wrote, edited some of it to make it sound like me, and then re-posted. I would be banned within 10 minutes. Thats why we are angry.

This post makes Ret look childish and jealous.


Jealous? The fact is that Grubby want attention.

There is Charity event in Poland, The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity. They are in our country for 20 years. There is no Hospital, where you can't find equipment bought by them. This year they collected about 12 mln of dolars ( I may be wrong ).

http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerzy_Owsiak - I newer saw article from that guy saying. Ok my name is Jerzy Owsiak and now i will be helping kids becouse many people are helping me.... It's pathetic when someone is publishing that kind of news that he wanted to help.

The situation would be different when let's say in 3 months Feast won GSL/IEM/MLG/ and he will make topic about Grubbys Help. It's just how world works. Yea Feast helped him much but still... wtf.... :/ he could skip the "solo" part


Grubby has his own team named TEAM GRUBBY, do you know what's good for a Team?

EXPOSURE

No shit that he wrote it for attention seeing as attention = exposure = money. Do you see every other pro making a sarcastic thread every time you see a team making an announcement? Do you see Ret making a post such as this when a team recruits a female player (female players right now = pretty much all for publicity). No, you don't.

I'm not a Grubby fanboy, I didn't play WC3 at all and I don't even play SC2 anymore. I only watch SC2 tournaments. Am I instantly a fanboy because I think it's wrong of ret to make a thread and throw out shit such as

But I'll be honest and say that it's I mainly because I want everybody in the community to think I'm awesome and kiss my ass


?

I agree people go over the line when they start comparing their results in e-sports and all that jazz but when you add the crap DeMuslim said on his stream with Rets thread it's pretty obvious that it's done in bad taste.

Also, NaNiwa I respect you for your play but all of this "i am who i am take it or leave it" is kind of bullshit. You can be who you are without 6 probe rushing, without coming into threads like this and flame players for doing a good PR job. You're a PROFESSIONAL player, you have to be professional (if you want to be rewarded for your work).

You just proved yourself wrong, you said some find the humor brilliant others not, which implies that this post is definitely humor i.e not to be taken seriously, you also demonstrated that some people enjoy this, so why complain? Grubby hasn't said he is upset so why are you?
