However, i'm very regretful facing the fact that our community is all about vigilante justice and revenge. Orb might have done wrong and might be a very bad mannered person BUT when i'm seeing people being happy about someone who dedicated his time for the growing of Esport being fired i'm disheartened. Sorry people, being BM is nothing compared to that. We shouldn't be happy about a person being fired because whoever he might be, he did things for us that few of us could have done. We should all be sad that Orb might not be able to cast anymore or at least for a very long time. I'm so sad people thinks that they do good in being heartless, they think wrong. | ||

So what? Feels good when your angry, seeing how it's the biggest taboo to say in real life probably makes it the most satisfying. That and calling someone a jew. | ||

![]() I bet almost everyone at one point in their life said things they shouldn't have. I know I have done it, so I can't say that I can't forgive you. I hope you can get back into casting asap. Off Topic (sorta): Oh, and censoring yourself by saying "the n-word" is actually really dumb and isn't any better than actually saying it. Everyone knows what you mean, and context IS important. Mature people should understand that... same goes for "the f-word" btw. Either make sentences that don't need the word in there anyway (like me) or just write/say it ffs. (I'm not using the words to make my point because I don't wanna get banned ![]() | ||

That being said, I do hope that he learns what he has done and that this apology is sincere (given the protesting on reddit and accusations of slander etc. along with the attitude when he finally admitted it, I don't find it is). Still, knowing that Orb just moved into the EG house, I hope he isn't left homeless over this. That might be a bit extreme. | ||

But one word brings up a sad time in American history when one group of people OWNED another. Did people own gays? No. Also Do u actually think that first screen shot was his "friend"? U actually buy that crap? Its not very hard to find stories where a nice honest and friendly man is getting beaten, bullied, shunned, oppressed, treated like a lesser person... all over the world.. also in many parts of the u.s... this very day.. the present.. not history... the man is gay... though in your setting.. he could have been black couldn't he? even here in norway.. i've grown up with that gay people have been bullied.. even so far to drive them to suicide.. it has gotten better... but its not near to the acceptance that race have gotten... if you want a gradation on it i would say gay is the worse word to use compared to nigger. personally both words are just words to be used to insult... only sensitive, thin skinned people gets so bothered by words | ||

Best of luck and try to switch into other ways of venting your ladder frustration. (I sometimes just go punch my pillow [careful with your wrist though], it actually helps alot) | ||

Until then, one of my favorite casters has departed my favorite team, and this makes me sad. | ||
