41 page thread where it's roughly 60/40 on support. Typically those aren't good numbers when you have such small fan base to begin with, pissing off/losing fans is probably the worst thing you can do. Trolling has a time and place, this wasn't it. Wasn't tasteful, wasn't clever, seen more impressive trolls from middle school students on LoL.
It's okay for those of us who are offended, twitter and emailing the very few sponsors Liquid can manage to get is always a great way of showing them the people they're paying for.
Do note I'm more offended by the complete lack of effort put into this more than who it's aimed at. If you're on a professional team that's widely considered the most mannered team and viewed with a lot of respect for it, the last thing you wanna do is piss that down the drain by doing..this.
Here Ret, I'll give you some examples of your awesome trolling skills.
"Hur hur you're fat."
"Hur hur if you spent less time trolling and more time playing maybe you wouldn't suck."
"Guys I'm so good at this game I can make drones yo."
It's a useful talent to have, making drones. But anyone in bronze league can hit 4 + d. Grow up, Ret and Grubby know each other. You've never poked fun at a friend before? Give me a break. You'd seriously threaten a player by going after his source of income? Grow a pair and learn to take a joke. He's not paid to troll. My views differ greatly than most on this forum especially the moderators. Ret isn't anything special, he's a human being who made an offensive stupid joke that had it been any regular <-- community member doing the exact same thing, would have been banned for. Sorry, I treat everyone equally. A horrible lazy offensive troll is no exception people just seem to hold him to a higher esteem than others. You seem to be missing one thing. Grubby has not stated on any media that he's at all pissed about this. The joke was funny to some, not so funny to others. You've never goofed at work? Going after someones livelihood over a joke is well..It's a joke. (pun not intended)
Actually Grubby did post on twitter that he didn't find it funny and hinted that he found it distasteful.

I found it hilarious.
The fucking drama some of you conjure out of thin air, sheesh. Get outside and(/or) do something productive instead of fuming over a bloody joke, for chrissakes.

Dropping some truth.

Previous two posters just don't get it.

It was probably a good idea for Grubby to make public the nature of his relationship to Feast. People have been mistakenly assuming that Feast was joining (or had joined) Team Grubby for weeks. It was in Grubby and Feasts best interest to make the nature of their relationship public. I doubt a team like Millenium appreciates having their player constantly bombarded with questions as to whether or not Feast was indeed a part of Mill or Team Grubby.
And I really doubt Ret intended for his post to be a malicious attack on Grubby. He was simply poking a bit of fun Grubby's way.

42 pages, really TL?
page 19 was the worst however

Not as much hinted as outright stated he does not appriciate "homo" jokes. But he seems not to attach to much to it.
Cinimidrak @Cinimidrak
@followgrubby What do you think of how Ret is making fun of you on TL? teamliquid.net/forum/viewmess…
Manuel Schenkhuizen @followgrubby
@Cinimidrak Oh, that. I didn't think it was funny because I don't like "homo" jokes. #distasteful
Demuslim said on the stream it was intented as a friendly jab at Grubby more then anything, and that him and Jos thought Grubbys post was abit focused on himself.
Think people get way to uptight over it but homo jokes are in bad taste imho :|

I think this is one of the issues people have. Would this Thread be under blogs it's pretty clear this is a (more or less - you can argue about that) joke. While it's under sc2 general it's imo pretty clear people get offended cause this place is meant for announcements/serious stuff. :/

Considering this is probably the most attention he's gotten in his career. Great idea...I will follow you in this.
Really guys...? Come on, that's just silly. I'm not too fond of Ret's post aswell cuz I'm a Grubby fanboy, but writing a complaint to his sponsors because you didn't like this one troll post....
