I had nothing against orb, but after playing him on ladder and starts raging and accusing me of stream cheating, it kinda pissed me off. He just gets soo upset for no reason

He was nerd raging in his own personal stream, actually I don't really think he needs to apologize for anything.

He sticks by his word that it was indeed his friend, and lieing was the ONLY thing I could think of that could warrant an apology.

I dislike freedom as much as the next guy, but this is a little ridiculous. It wasn't even used in a racist context. EG lost a fan today.

I hope the 80% negative comments of the sort "No one thought him racist, only his attempt to cover it got him what he deserved" - now go back and reevaluate the whole story, given that he actually did not try to cover anything and the first screenshot was in fact not him; while for all other way old screenshots he immediately apologized and took responsibility right there on the spot.

anything that's said on the cusp of a ladder game loss or shortly afterwards should never be taken seriously, everybody BMs and the words are irrelevant its just venting.....sad to see one of their better casters part ways with what I've always seen as a respectable organization.

The best part about all this is that the dismissal is about being liked by the viewers, if it was about morals IdrA would have been cut ages ago.

I'm not sure why that word is seen as worse than some of the stuff Idra casually says to people.
Oh well, best luck to you orb. We all make mistakes, it's a shame yours had to turn out so badly for you.

Sorry this whole event happened to you Orb, I know exactly how it feels to be in a state of rage and saying things you don't mean to other players. People need to view it more as passion for how much you care about the game, you wouldn't have such intense responses if you didn't care so much about Starcraft.

GL on a speedy recovery to casting at a prestegious level again, I am sure with time the community will forgive you.

He sticks by his word that it was indeed his friend, and lieing was the ONLY thing I could think of that could warrant an apology.


And what proof is there that it was actually his friend? To be honest, if my friend did something like this, 2 things would happen:

1) My friend would immediately own up in several different public forums claiming it was him, friends have your back when you're in trouble... And if a friend, someone you let on your $60 account, doesn't know that you're a community member of SC2, it doesn't sound like he's a friend and more like just some random guy, and if that's the case... probably shouldn't let him use your account.

2) This simply would not happen. I would not be friends with someone who has 0 respect for the things he borrows (sc2 account in this case).

Sorry, there is just no way I can see him telling the truth. Too many coincidences, you can spin it whatever way you want (taught him hotkeys, taught him build orders similar to mine, we both have a fond use of the word nigger whenever we're upset on the SC2 ladder...), but at the end of the day until this friend comes forward and admits he did it, and provides some proof that he's actually not just some random dude Orb knows IRL, this shouldn't be forgiven any time soon.

Lying to employers is a very serious thing. People are so fucking caught up on the "racism" it's so stupid. Be caught up on the fact that he lied to his employer.

People seriously need to put their pitchforks away.

All the stuff that flooded reddit was "evidence" of stuff that happened in the past BEFORE he signed with EG. One less competent caster I guess... holy crap.

I still strongly believe that you lied, very sad that you can't take responsabilities on that but anyway you got kicked out of EG hopefully you'll learn from that and comeback when the community has forgiven you.

So everyone is okay, that he lied to the whole community about his "friend" and other crap he said... damn, i guess i can lie and get away with things, and no one cares.

This is my god honest opinion on the matter so mods, please don't ban me or whatever, im being honest and real about the situation.

Fuck you Orb. The reason I say that is because people like you make me want to stop playing SC2 as a whole. When im in a game and I get called the N word, i automatically report them to Blizzard for harassment. Where I come from, you'll get stomped out if you say that shit in public. The words coming out of this guys mouth online is no different than in real life, except for the fact that you are a huge pussy that hides behind a computer screen. You are a fucking bully and i dont care how long ago this shit was, you deserve getting fired for being unprofessional.

Lets compare this to something in the real world. Let's say that you get a new job, and everything is good for a few weeks, when your boss goes onto your facebook without you knowing and sees a video of you and your friends screaming the N word. Any competent person would fire that guy immediately. EG did the right thing to get rid of your bigoted ass. Grow the fuck up.

Sigh reddit overreacts and a person gets fired. You are excused in my book anyway, I rage on ladder all the time.

You are forgiven. Everyone deserve a second chance. A third, well, a third, not.
