Way to go Reddit, now lets all post about how orb can pick back up the peices of his life.

All this happended before he was employed with EG, just makes the punishment that more harsh.

But he didn't lie. The other screens are months old. The most recent one could entirely possibly actually have been someone other than orb saying it.

It seems like you don't understand the concept of the thread you're posting in.

I'm sorry but this apology feels REALLY hollow after all the bullshit trying lying that it wasn't you in the first place. Also from what I've seen not the first time you've done this type of thing is it? I don't get why it should be water under the bridge and apology accepted.

If people weren't going so crazy in the first place and blowing this out of proportion I don't think he'd feel the need to lie about it, it's not an excuse he shouldn't lie about it anyways but the over-reaction was wrong also. People nowdays don't give others a chance to correct themselves or make up for it, they gotta be crucified immediately.

I wonder what would have happened if you owned up to your mistakes right off the bat instead of blaming your newb friend who you taught the exact same hotkeys and sc2 lingo to who hated playing newbies.

You yelled at those accusing you and now apologize. The sincerity of this post is completely lost on me, its too late.

Gah I like your casting too but you had to become so arrogant, haven't you seen this before it always makes it worse.

Honestly I don't think you owe anyone an apology, of all people SC2 players should understand how frustrating the game can be when your losing and the rage that it induces. This community is full of a lot of scumbags and Orb is most certainly not one of them, I find it ridiculous how they are choosing to punish him for something that almost everyone has probably done. I find it saddening to see what this community is amounting to, at any given moment people are always looking to stir up drama and crucify them for the god knows what reason.

Glad to see you become aware of yourself as caster with an ego bigger than himself unleashing racism on his opponents when he losses. I'm happy to see you move on from the delusion of wanting to be a pro without acting in the manner of one. Best of luck to you in the future. Treat others as yourself.

Good post, I'm sorry this event had such repercussions on your career but as you said, it's not like you'll ever forget this for the rest of your life now.

Best of luck in the future

If you're going to use those words your either a racist or a real idiot.

I have no problem with racists but in your position you've just fucked yourself. lol

i am gonna be the first one to say it and i dont forgive you.
its a damn shame you called many and plenty of players the n word.
you think most people on here are actually gonna believe your not gonna do it again? because i dont believe it i hope you have nothing to do in the starcraft community because we dont need more embarrassing people like you in it.
and with people saying nobody thinks your a racist, i believe your a racist and the "n" word shouldnt even be in your vocabulary if your not

No it really doesn't. Why are we trying to promote that type of childish immature attitude? You may be right in saying that everybody gets frustrated from time to time and that sometimes they might do something mildly childish like not GGing or drawing out the game but mature players and people don't go spouting this garbage in little hissy fits. Really it's ridiculous to be trying to call this normal acceptable behaviour that everybody does.

I see that you apologised for using offensive language when you rage but what about the part where you said it was your friend who did it? Was that a lie?

I hope you don't return to the mainstream community. You thought you could get away with your childish racist remarks after losing ladder games. Little did you know that outside of your parents basement, there is a real world with consequences. In reality, you are bratty and pathetic. The only reason you issued this apology was because you got caught. What's sad is I expect someone who acts like you to be 14 or 15 years old.

A bunch of people get away with it every day - you were just zeroed in on for some random reason.

Either way, its not like you will not be demanded...some of the stuff you did weekly was appointment programming for me and I am sure you can get back into it right away.

I for one have emailed every EG sponsor to tell them they should consider dropping their support of the team due to how they handled this situation. Too much hypocrisy to stomach....

Just as crappy as GOM back pedaling and revoking Nani's code S spot.
If SC2 is going to be built on community full of asshats I hope its completely dead within the next few years....

And lastly to all the self righteous jack asses who have "accepted his apology" why don't you get off your high horse and go play 'hide and go fuck yourself"...

This post is so full of stupid I don't know where to begin. At least you're such a small, crazy minority that the sponsors will disregard your emails.

I can't help feeling sorry for Orb, there's so much rage and immaturity in most people's SC backgrounds. It's a shame his was dug up by the witchhunters on reddit and used to end his career just as it was really getting going.

on a sidenote, how about InControl trolling a porn star (aka mia rose) to the brink of tears. That was quite an embarrassment to watch and much more deplorable than trolling a random ladder opponent who you don't know.

I forgive you. Well I never actually saw your actions as anything more than impulsive BM. Reddit's community by its very nature loves jumping on the bandwagon and hating on the new person. This doesn't help eSports at all. I wish you luck.
