Please stop with the jokes/posts that speculate something sexual or scandalous is at play here. They do not contribute to discussion and are generally of very poor taste.

yeah, true, but i think the context is slightly different as we're apparently talking about a punitive demotion. were there really notable, publicized cases of such in BW? can't really remember one.
There was one incident... that time when all those players (that had happened to be demoted over the months prior) got caught doing that thing that involved the words "match" and "fixing". Granted, we didn't know that was why they had been demoted until long after they had been.
Not that MMA did that, cause nobody would be that stupid nowadays.
Probably just some stupid internal shit that us foreigners would go "what, really?" and the koreans think is a huge deal.
If I had to bet on the chance of someone getting his wallet stolen vs the chance of a young kid voicing his opinion on controversial news article the second he sees it, without bothering to think deeply a bout it... come on

GanZi and Taeja both left for foreigner teams, you never see BoxeR play any more, MMA has dropped out of Code S, and now this. It's just sad to think of what SlayerS used to be and what they are now. They are obviously still a great team, but they used to be the Terran powerhouse that could beat any other team in the teamleagues. Oh well, poor SlayerS, but I would be really curious to hear what MMA did to warrant being put on the B Team.
i hate it when people exaggerate like this.. GanZi is going to do his military service relatively soon and wanted to experience being on a foreign team. TaeJa was never in the team house. Boxer has a shoulder injury and will return with HOTS. MMA was in the round of 8 twice in a row just a couple seasons ago and is only two best of 3's away from getting back into Code S atm. Alicia just reached two consecutive finals and SlayerS is in the semi-finals of the GSTL.
The team is not falling apart, stop trying to make it seem taht way

Forget MMA we need to get MKP's wallet back! Internet Detectives, get out your oversized magnifying glasses and search for clues. Internet Tough Guys start telling us about how you would shake people down if you ever saw them in real life for information.
And Internet Trolls, blame JESSICA!
Edit: And the Internet cynics who hate the world, Korea, life, love, flowers and MKP follow WaxAngel.
I'm fine with speculation but lets all stop jumping to blind conclusions about what reasons there were for the demotion until something more solid surfaces. People like Wax will be there to relay the information when it finally does.

If you're a detective troll do you blame jessica for the stolen wallet?

Maybe MMA stole MKP's wallet and SlayerS are punishing him for it, but MMA doesn't want to accept the punishment because it's his form of retribution for MKP stealing his early 2012 Terran bonjwa status?
SlayerS A-team has just lost quite a bit of style. Here's hoping for an amicable resolution to whatever problems caused him to be dropped from their A-team. I mean ... he's still in Code A ... he still plays very strongly to the common observer ...
SlayerS loss, foreigner teams gain if the rift stays.
