As emotionally invested as people are on this topic, TL rules still apply. That includes flaming and ad hominem attacks. |

I saw your "what's my favorite thing about america" on the TL clip. Basically there are more important things than money. Friends is one of them. I was a fan of ROOT because I thought money was less important to them than standing up for their dream and what they believe in. It would not be hard for ROOT to stand behind Steven in this case. This is not a big deal.
The pressure the sponsors felt was minor (messages on boards are not directly translated into money) and the pressure they put on ROOT was silly. Yes silly sponsor pressure.

Definitely agree with ROOT's decision here. Good luck in the future, guys! You've never shown pics a chick sent you to a friend? Really? I don't see why I would ever have a reason to send nude pictures a girl sent to me in confidence to my friends. That's just a shitty thing to do. Okay, so you can't relate to it. But happens, ALOT.

Why are you so offended about people getting offended over Destiny's dickgate?

So you think ROOT should've stood behind Destiny for a pretty despicable act. Not only does it seem morally lacking, it also makes no business sense. If sponsors back out, ROOT can't afford to send their players to tournaments any more.

Also consider this:
1 = destiny has pictures of his dick he sends around 2 = 90% of destiny fan girls are 15 3 = destiny has obv recieved nude pics from at least 1 girl
1+2+3=shady business
|
Honestly, even for Destiny's standards his latest act was way off the charts. Not surprised at all to see this happen.

My penis puns aren't what they used to be. I am truly saddened.

The shitstorm that would've brew if the genders were reversed. A few girls talk about a guy and then he goes and posts a nude on her twitter....

Come on Geoff, you've been in the pro scene long enough to know pictures get shared around like candy. Hell, I have about 50 different sets of pictures of gamer girls, booth girls, and different pros girlfriends just chilling on my phone from the short time I was involved in the pro scene. sad part is this was the only time we ever got into this type of conversation with destiny(not about girls but a convo where he shared pics with us). i swear it on my life That's a damn shame, I know some serial sharers that have never been this publicly bashed.

Moral of the story:
1) Never share passwords to crazy attention whore. 2) Never share pics of your dick to said crazy attention whore 3) Don't use the same passwords for all your accounts 4) Always change your passwords

But yeah money has to come somewhere and eventually people have to grow up and stop acting like manchilds.
So true.
