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.

I don't really see the problem here. Sure, it's drastic but there's no right for anyone to act like that.

soo a man walks into a house, abuses whoever was there, the fault lies on the resident for not locking the door? (not in court cases, in terms of our moral standards)
i think you're picking hair and redirecting the point to something else. so to clarify, you're saying its not a big deal because she could have banned him, nothing would of happened.
well, it did happen and perhaps it went to place that shouldn't have to escalated in the first place, but you must understand i'm sure maaaany people get banned on daily bases on any popular stream. shit like this happens all the time (failing to ban, this instance, it seems slayers did not have good mod or knowledge), failing to avoiding it not a fault. the point here is, is cyberbulling ok or not because that is what this lawsuit is leading to.
i honestly think he'll just get a warning or something, nothing major (hopefully) but it extensive/offensive trolling and bm needs to be looked down upon. did i say that? no i didnt, SlayerS invited everyone in the world into there public chat and allwed them to say whatever they wanted to and then sued someone for doing jsut that its like inviteing someone into your house to beat your wife then calling the cops when he does what you ask him to it was a public chat with no rules, nor were any rules inforced yet the dude is gonna lose a large chunk of cash at the minumum for this
please re-read my post (or rest of it), i like how you completely missed the point of huge chunk of it explaining my view.
why are you so against people have good set moral standards? murder bad, help good, etc?

Ok, by that logic I would be allowed to punch you really hard in the face. Come on, you have to realize that there are certain rules every human has to follow.

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.

I don't understand it, since it's just words, but if Jessica wants to sue him, she'll sue him.

uhhhh, thats kinda how society works. 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.

im not going to claim i know better then the people who make most laws, some of it certainly does make the world a better place (personally it makes me sad that the laws are needed to make the world a better place) but laws like this one jsut cross the line in my opinion, as far as im concerned as long as people dont kill, dont steal, dont assault, dont rape then everything else should pretty mcuh be left up to the individual
obviously i dont have a very mainstream belief
Ignore that the guy was banned, and by many accounts MULTIPLE times.
so how come on the day that she decided to file him for a sue, noone had any idea how to ban?

I applaud her for this. I only hope more people will sue the trolls in all these chats

I can't believe people would frown upon Jessica for doing this. I imagine the majority of people who look down on her must be young people that don't understand how the world works yet.
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!
|
I love the double standard people have. I don't fucking understand how people can think Jessica is wrong. If I went to your face and called your mother a whore and slut, I expect to be tackled and punched half to death. What I don't expect is people to pity me for picking on a anger management hardhead and not deserving my punishment for insulting your mother. Freedom of speech is one thing, verbally abusing someone is another. TL is becoming 4chan.

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.

Trolls are extremely annoying and in my opinion, I feel they deserve such treatment as this. You have to start somewhere right? So, start with one troll at a time until their stupidity is replaced by a change of thought.
