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

i think no one would care about his dick pics, the chatlog is the bad stuff that hurts destiny and root :/
i feel so sorry for destiny

bluetea is just butthurt cuz someone talked bad about her looks, she shouldve just stand over all this stuff and ignored it. when you send nude pics to a guy you HAVE TO KNOW they will probably not keep those to theirselves and to do this shit as 'revenge' is sooooo idiotic and childish

and people who email sponsors are just retarded and should stay away from the internet and pick up flowers and dance underneath rainbows

While I am sad that Destiny is leaving (in my opinion he's a awesome guy) it's a good move by ROOT and CatZ for the longevity of the team.
Hopefully Destiny can get some kind of personal sponsorship because he doesn't seem to be having much luck with teams.

I find myself becoming more and more uninterested in the SC2 scene because of this kind of stuff. Destiny said some mean stuff about a girl in a private conversation? Better alert the sponsors that we won't be buying their stuff anymore because of it. Pretty soon their won't be a scene to follow because no sponsor is going to want to put money into this one. Some men just want to watch the world (e-sports) burn.

Fuck bluetea, and fuck the little fucks who bitched to sponsors. Fucking drama whores, she wasn't even nude on the photos, and she was with a bunch of friends. and in payback she tried to ruin his entire fucking career, and spreads ACTUAL nudes of Destiny? Bitches be crazy


He gave them to her, and she had his password to his e-mail. It's not like she hacked his account to do this. Destiny basically gave her all the ammo she needed.

I still think this is way too much of an over reaction both from her and the community. I mean, it's still bad, but the way some people talk about Destiny is just stupid to me. Of course, this could be attributed to not knowing all the facts I guess


It is. What Destiny did was mean and bad. The same conversation has happened millions of times with other people, but rarely does it ever get out and upset the victim. The girl's reaction was infinitely worse. Destiny hurt one person's feelings. She jeopardized his career and the integrity of an entire organization.

I don't know how many times I have to say that I don't support Destiny's actions, but the "payback" was a gross overreaction.


Honestly, the part that actually repulsed me the most is he was sending some of these dick pics to girls from his current girlfriends living room, and talking in the skype log about all the ass he was going to get at mlg (while still presumably in his relationship). That was what really turned me off of following him anymore, not the nude pics, etc. People have inappropriate conversations with their buddies, especially in private, I can let that go, but the scummy treatment of his partner pretty much made me dislike his personality, which has always been his major selling point.

And I realize I have no right to judge Destiny, he can do whatever he likes, but as a potential viewer of his stream I'm not really interested anymore.

Well, bluetea was doing an illegal thing but that does not approve of the threats that Destiny made.

And jesus, change your password once in a while.

Too bad for ROOT, this is very shitty. I guess this is the reason Liquid picks up a new player after a long background check.

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

His face isn't in the pics so he could of technically gone the celebrity route and deny that the pictures are of him. Just say that it's a crazy bitch grabbing random pics just to try and get back at him

If only he didn't over react and pull out of the competition...

So much for the edgy ROOT and welcome to just another BS team. Too bad Catz folded to the silly sponsor pressure too.


silly sponsor pressure? You mean.. those people that pay the bills?


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.


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.


The act was dumb. But it was private and brought some minor shame to the organization. But it is an organization known for its edge and ... duh... who didn't see another Destiny episode coming. That is why he is on the team!

If their sponsor pull out then that is STUPID since this event DOES NOT HARM THEM IN ANY WAY. Most ROOT supporters who support the sponsors brands do not care about this, but we probably care that ROOT dismissed Destiny. The people emailing sponsors are the same people who emailed Quantic's sponsors, EG's sponsosrs, etc. These people are not fans of any of these teams and do not represent the market of the sponsors. This is all around stupid.

Finally. Destiny's been a cancer on this community. Calling people that beat you on ladder "niggers" and "faggots" everyday for 2 years has earned him a fanbase of god knows what, but he should not be on a professional team.

Like idra said on his Inside the Game, people can watch him do dumb shit on his stream but he should have no association with any sponsor or professional organization.

So, he shared a girl's sexy picture with friends and talk shit about her appearance; the girl then paid back with a picture of his private part? This is big news. Why have I not heard of this?

Good thing this didn't happen in the Korean scene or else someone could be in prison right now.

And the wonderful SC2 community once again shows how understanding and respectful of personal conversations and interactions they are! Yet another player completely screwed because people are so fucking offended about shit that doesn't involve them. Disgusts me to no end.

People just don't understand that in order to be a PROFESSIONAL, simply being good at something isn't good enough. In order to be a pro, you need to act professionally. But I guess - and I don't mean this in a mean way - that's too much to ask of a 20 something year old. They just don't know any better.

you know, it would be nice to maybe have some girls' opinions in this thread, because what's kind of shocking to me is the blase attitude of guys sharing nude pictures to other guys. like, really? Is it an ego/alpha thing to show off, like "guys guys look, this girl sent me nude pics! See? I can talk well with girls and stuff!" Do you not care at all about the person? Their wishes/desires? Obviously they are sharing something special with you in confidence. The whole element of trust involved (besides being a turn on) is usually rewarding to the people sharing. Are we really so petty and boob-blinded we can't respect the trust/privacy of another person? Why do I feel unique in asserting that I would never do that .. -____-

But also to make fun of the person and allude to Shrek.. really? Maybe I shouldn't even try to figure this out. Men are stupid.

I support ROOT in this decision and good riddance to Destiny. I knew his immaturity would doom him way back during the fucking "language" fiasco..

I doubt it because he probably has at least an ounce of respect for women.
