Haters gonna hate!

Good job on owning so many people with your april first joke, don't let all these butthurt ballads tell you otherwise =)
And best of luck to your team

Bad joke and not appropriate for an April fools' joke. This kind of thing would have been a risk even for an established esports team (which prolly would have never even considered joking about stuff as serious as salaries and management) but for a new team it's even worse. Does Eclypsia really want to be remembered as the April fools' team? The joke's on them.

Say what you say about the April's fool, but 85k views on the closed thread indicates that it was a great publicity stunt. A lot more people know about Eclypsia now than before this. Great marketing job!

Not impressed at all. I love Artist and he MAY be the only reason I give this team a glance. The april fools thing was unfunny, poorly done.

At least this aprils fools joke actually fools people, unlike pretty much everything else websites\organizations pull, which is purposfully made to be so over the top that nobody would ever believe it (because a lot of people take offense to being actually fooled about something) so everyone instantly knows it for what it is.

The only thing that makes this sort of less worthy for me is that it is done by a pretty unknkown team and more of a publicity stunt than an aprils fools, if say a team like EG , or Liquid, pulled a stunt like this it would be a great aprils fools joke, but that being said, probably not a great PR move/risking a lot.

Nice troll. Wouldn't have bothered reading this thread if I hadn't read the previous thread.

I don't understand why people get upset just because other teams have scammed players like this... do you think that those players sat at home and cried when they saw the Eclypsia topic? What makes you think those players who have been scammed like this gets offended?

It's like a 15 year old girl telling her mom on 1st April that she's pregnant, and all of a sudden that's way out of line because there are other girls who HAVE gotten pregnant at the age of 15 and that's very sad! Oh no!

People just want to create drama out of anything...

You surprised? Community that mocks reddit for being a drama center makes just as much, if not more, drama.

Didn't realize teenage pregnancy was some sort of laughing matter now. Maybe it's cool with your friends and shit, but this is a fucking business and in business you're supposed to be proffesional about this kind of things.
Stunts like these are exactly why people still laugh if you mention pro gaming

I understand the thought behind the joke but all it's gonna do is have people have a negative image of your organization before any more came out... why want to start like that?

Regardless glad welmu wasn't screwed over, good luck

Just in case there are 15 year old girls reading this thread: Telling your mom that you're pregnant as an april's fool joke is out of line.

I don't think this is that bad. I mean, next time someone comes forward with something like this, they'll get asked if it's an april's fool joke. I can see how that will be annoying, but no big deal, really.

How can they lose a fan they never had?

He was potentially going to be a fan of their team. Now he is certain that he won't support them because of this little joke. Not hard to understand.

How can one community be so unable to take a joke is beyond me.

How stupid... teams scamming players and not paying them is actually a very serious thing. I have no idea why anybody would use that to promote their brand.
