SlayerS_Jessica was quoted saying "people cannot just say or do whatever they want just because they're on the internet and no one can see their faces. I find this kind of behavior to be absolutely unacceptable and filed this case in hopes that other people will see it and realize they cannot act this way." Seems like shes not as insane as people think, shes just trying to hold people accountable for their actions. Seems wonderful to me. | ||

Your analogy is completely off the mark, given Slayer's stream is advertised I'd imagine as 'Pro Starcraft House in Korea!' rather than 'Come and have a field day and send abuse in chat to a female who goes out with one of the players' Guy deserves to lose his fucking cash. its a public chat, with no rules if you want to abuse someone then go right ahead, they say its ok by not banning it | ||

Pretty much sums up my thoughts. If he is found guilty then he deserves to be. I think it's about time people were held accountable for their actions online. | ||

As if it's hard to have minimum manners? | ||

People give and take just so that they can live in relative peace. And how was she not inconveniced by this? She is part of the organization that many people watch and she got embarassed by a guy who is doing it out of...boredom I guess? I wonder if the concept of rights being accompanied by responsibilities is somehow lost these days. You can act however you like, but some actions have reactions and guess what? You have to deal with them too. | ||

You may disagree with me but I at least address the points you make, you ignore half of the points I make. I don't expect to change your mind by any means but at least contribute to the debate by addressing critiques of your points. Your argument is like a one-armed rower, I mean there's a lot of effort shown but it's not really going anywhere. 1. Ignore that the guy was banned, and by many accounts MULTIPLE times. 2. Ignore that he transgressed some rules (even informal convention), which led to said ban. Just because something isn't codified doesn't mean it's not unacceptable. 3. Ignore that spam of such a kind is disruptive to the ability to communicate with other people. | ||

You should treat others with respect especially if they have never done anything to you to deserve such harsh words. It is clear that this is harassment and he should be held accountable for such actions. The internet should not be used as some protective barrier where there is never any backfire on ill intent. The same way racism should be frowned upon in the gaming community so should sexual harassment. It is things like this that alienates females from entering the eSports scene. I'm glad Jessica finally had enough and put her foot down. She should not be forced to endure such hatred from this guy or anyone else in the eSports community. On another note, the OP states his initial opinion which sets a very horrible tone for this thread. I'd appreciate if you guys try to see things more clearly through a female's perspective. If a guy was harassing your girlfriend on the internet would you not make a stand for her as well? I'm sure Boxer supports her decision. Sorry to go off on a rant but sometimes people in this community now days makes me sick to think Jessica should be looked down upon for this. Grow up people! | ||

Sexually harassing people is quite commonly known to be against the law in many places around the world, Korea included I am sure. | ||

When the moral of the people fail it's the responsibility of the society to set rules, for them to follow so that society can continue to function. | ||
