What the hell is this? That's way too many negatives for one sentence.
Anyway, the response to this has been hilarious on Reddit. /v/ has started an uprising, trying to get Idra fired for use of the word retard, mass downvotes on actual content for the reason "Shut up, we're getting people fired" and offering up further casters as sheep to the slaughter.
You have your fanatic support, Orb. Ironic enough, it is from the same site that brought you down.

You got what you deserved. Take this incident as your queue to grow up and display some professionalism towards the community you were hired to represent. Lying and using racist terminology is something I won't ever forgive but perhaps I'm in the minority.
For what it's worth, good luck.

Just curious, can EG really fire him for this? Considering it happend prior to his employment with them. Would like to know if a contract existed.

Glad to hear you were fired, you don't deserve a spotlight if you can't act professionally.

When I made the hurtful and offensive comments seen on screenshots on reddit/etc, I was not in a proper state of mind. My judgement was clouded by anger, rage, and frustration, and I thought the offensive language would be interpreted as comedy and venting rather than legitimate world views of mine. Clearly I was wrong, and I am so very sorry to anyone I offended. If there is one thing I could hope for here, it's that EG's brand and sponsors will not be harmed by my thoughtless actions. I never dreamed when I was BMing that I would one day represent EG (as all of this offensive BM was from before I had joined EG), but this obviously does not excuse me.
I want to make absolutely clear that I am not a racist. The accusations against me could not be farther from the truth. The 'N word' was used in a replacable fashion, in that any other curse word would have held the exact same meaning for me. I understand now, however, that this doesn't hold true for all members of the community. For any I truly offended, I am sorry for offending you. I judge people based on who they are, not the color of their skin, and I would challenge anyone to debate me on this matter. I have never once held any bit of racism in my heart, but it's understandable that when I wear some of it on my sleeve people assume it extends to my heart. I hope each and every one of you can understand that while I use offensive language when my emotions get the better of me, I do not stand by the language I use. It was a mistake, plain and simple. One that I will not soon forget.
My sincerest apologies, Jake "orb" Sklarew
Wow. I hope I don't have to explain this to anyone.

Can anyone link me to a black person who was severely offended by this? As far as I can tell it's just the white people that are up in arms over it.

also a doubt any actual contract was signed they probably jsut called him up and said "yo wanna come in the EG house wear our brand and cast his shit?"

Sad to see you go Orb, you were the only reason I was watching MCSL, and probably won't be tuning in for the rest of the season.
As you know, always been a fan of your casting, and I was really excited to see you finally hit the big time.
God, in the last 2 weeks, both of my favorite casters have been vilified by fans, perhaps I should call Wolf and Khaldor to let them know I'm a huge fan, and as such they need to watch their backs.
|
I'm sure over half the community has raged just as hard, and said as bad or worse. The reaction has frankly been ridiculous. Not necessarily right to say, and should be addressed, but not like this. I really hope I can continue to see you cast, it would be sad if a flash mob of idiots totally ruined your career. 
And I hope you start a smurf now. Should be mandatory nowadays, personal and professional lives should be kept separate, it's annoying that people force them together.

I really don't understand all these posts about "He didn't do anything wrong" "fuck reddit for making this happen".
Fuck reddit? No no no my friends, fuck Orb and people like him. People get angry on ladder, I understand that, I get angry too. A normal person however when he gets angry does not spout the foulest language he can imagine and goes out of his way to annoy his opponent, it's childish and disgusting behavior. The internet is a great tool for so many reasons, allowing people to behave like this is not one of them.
On top of that Orb blatantly lied about the accusations and tried to worm his way out of them, before finally coming clean and posting a half-hearted apology, which didn't mention anything about his lies by the way.
Good riddance Orb, and Orb-defenders : what is wrong with you?

Reddit kids won i guess...this is pathetic
