This is not a thread to argue about destiny, or to argue about racism, witch hunts or anything other than the fact that root is getting back together. You do so at your own peril.

It's true though. ROOT disbanded before because they were unable to find sponsors. Now they are back together but still have no sponsors? And just how likely are they to find any with Destiny on the team? What's to celebrate here?

The interview stated that the players are now more finansially secure. Probably they have enough viewers to provide some income. It is good that they believe they are in a position to do this, so why shouldn't we give them our support? I for one would love to see a team succeed without having to rely on over-sensitive sponsors. And if they do get sponsors in time - even better - it will be a spit in the eye of all the mindless haters.

Don't be an ass. The difference between a Team and a Clan is sponsorship, which ROOT does not have. Does the truth hurt?

I think that instead of talking about how unlikely/likely it is for them to get sponsors we should rally behind an amazing team that has great players that we love and declare that they deserve sponsors- don't sponsors respond to the community or am I confused about that??

actually the difference between a team and a clan is how they market themselves....If they're financially stable and generate and income from the game...then they can call themselves a team....

Sponsors don't make teams...otherwise Prime wouldn't have been a team for the longest time

If only we could always call definitions that we pull out of our ass "the truth." Not that I should even be giving your statement the time of day, since my point is that people shouldn't be coming into the thread just to make such statements in the first place.

The posts that are questioning how this clan is going to able to support its members, sending them to events, ect are just as legitimate if not more so then the posts that are simply congratulating them.

correct me if I'm wrong but Team liquid didn't actually have a team until sc2 and by that time they actually did have sponsor/s.
