I would just forget about it. Doesn't seem like your problem. I don't know why you would want to make it anymore of a problem for yourself by saying shit in this thread to people on TL.

Wow it was PRIVATE conversation, as if you guys never did that. Ofc it was not ok to share nude pics of someone who trusted you, i wouldnt do it. But EVERYONE of us had this kind of "mantalk", judging girls on their looks, boobs whatever. Everyone who is saying he isnt doing it is either a) a liar or b) doesnt have any friends to do this kind of conversation. So dont be such hypocrites. I dont think that what destiny did was 100% ok, because it wasnt. It was not ok to share nude pics. Then again i guess both guys didnt know who she was.

Still i hate this "political correctness" shit because it is so twofaced and hypocritic. People messaging the sponsors are the WORST kind of people i could EVER imagine. You people are the reason why the world is fucking two faced. You people are making other people hold back about their TRUE thoughts and opinions because if they acutally would say their TRUE REAL opinions they most likely would suffer from any kind of public punishment. Thats why there is so much shit in the world that acutally shouldnt be there because nobody wants to talk the realtalk. Everybody keeps hiding their real opinion and exchanges his opionen with a "political correct" opionion so he/she doesnt have to suffer from any kind of punishment by the hypocrits.
Well this might post might be blown up too much for this kind of little thing but yet it is true. It will start to corrupt esports because if someone does something that is "inappropriate" some hypocrits will start messaging their sponsors and they will get punished. Great job. Hope you enjoy yourself making esports steril and colourless. I hope you enjoy yourself destroying the freedom of the top gamers to misbehave. We all play games to get a rest from the allday stuff and sometimes we misbehave and we do say stupid things, but that is a big part why we acutally like the gamingcommunity. And then all of a sudden if someone has some decent success and his "carreer" becomes public people want the gamers to change? For what reason? Take a way their joy in misbehaving? It is a part of esports its a part of the esports culture. Yes esports is becoming more professional but the professional side shouldnt ruin the basic concept. Our "escape" from the real world, even if it is just for a brief moment.

Now he did what? Having a private conversation with two guys and sending nude pictures of a girl he shouldnt have. Ok thats not correct but still this kind of mistake now forces a good friend of him to disband him from the team. This shit shouldnt have never ever any impact on his gaming career whatsoever, but yet it has, thanks to all the pathetic hypocrits out there.

I'll put it this way...

The second you join a team and become a sponsored player, you are thereby giving up your right to act "how you please". The second you make that choice to be a sponsored player and become part of an organization, you are then representing your team, and your sponsors. You are then making a choice and commitment to act and present yourself NOT how you want, but in the way that is in the best interest of your team and sponsors

So if you don't want to have to give up how you are, or how you want to act, then don't fucking join a sponsored team. Destiny doesn't seem to understand this phenomenon.

Simple.

lol, did you ever listen to idra?


haha, I was actually just waiting for someone to bring him up in response to my post :p

IdrA is what you call "very good at sitting on the borderline" and not taking things too far.

every pro out there probably takes things too far in private.... geez what the fuck


the only difference is that the other pros don't have people inside their accounts, stalking their shit, watching their chatlogs. which i think is quite frankly the only explanation for her having seen that log if you or TT1 didn't leak.


This is seriously the part that's the most fucked up.
Just think about how many other progamers would be in deep shit if everything they said was made public....actually scratch that, just think how much shit we would all be in if everything we said in private was made public. Unless I'm wrong, and everyone is a saint except me, something like that would be horrifying.

And for people confused about his sending pics, so many professional athletes have had their pics leaked by their girlfriends or disgruntled exes. I can't believe that's actually an issue for people. Grow up.

Idra seems to know the line..

He can keep his persona without pissing off his sponsors.

oh yeah, you think he doesn't talk shit behind people's back in private?


As funny as this thread is, you're probably gonna regret posting stuff like this in the future.

lol seriously how naive can people be, you see idra talk shit about other players all the time in front of the cam, you think he doesn't say those things behind their backs either? wtf lol

everybody is going to say negative things about someone else at some point in his life, the fact the there was a creepy stalker girl logged in to read it and leak it for revenge doesn't make it worse


I'm just saying from one guy to another it's never a good idea to name drop specific people in cases like this.

well he's the most know BM figure so I don't see how it would do him any harm, it's just an exemple since everybody knows him

This needed to happen before ROOT could really be considered a professional team. Any team that would support a low life like Destiny obviously has no place in E-Sports. If Aaron Rodgers acted like Destiny do you think he would still be playing in the NFL? I don't think so.

This whole incident really shows his own level of insecurity.. Going behind a friend's back and doing some shit like he did is just disgusting.. The girl trusted him with the pictures, but he went and gave them out to friends... The worst part of all of this is obviously him sending her a picture of his dong. I honestly thought that weird lonely guys on chat roulette did that sorta stuff, and not someone who's suppose to be a "Professional" gamer. It's quite unfortunate that someone with so much talent and intelligence could be such a horrible person.. But his actions still don't surprise me lol

Good move ROOT

Wait, so what you're saying is that it's alright for a female to send nudes to a guy, but not the other way around? And if you do send pictures of your dong to a girl, especially after she had sent nudes to you, you're weird and lonely? God damn mang, you just went full derp.


Taking pictures of your member or sexting is for children, this is not how men act. When is the last time you heard about Chuck Norris "sexting" or trading pictures of his wee wee to a lady? What's the latest on Lebron James' penis pic? This is not how a man behaves, this is the act of a clown. My oh my what a circus. It's almost like you people never watched pro sports before, this kind of behavior isn't even remotely acceptable. There's a reason you only hear of isolated incidents in pro sports, they are uncommon and when something happens it's all over the news. Not to mention little kids love starcraft and now my 5 year old son has been crying ever since he's been exposed to this clowns genitals, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

This is why this scene has to get over this giant hump with the lack of professionalism with the players.

Chad Johnson headbutting his girlfriend has nothing to do with Football, but it got him kicked off the Dolphins didn't it?

You're associated with companies who intend on making money off a brand you wear on your shoulders. You're professionals at that point and your SPONSORS typically expect you to conduct yourself as such.

If the rest of the pro community is as short sighted as you're being, I really fear for the future of eSports.

since when do you have to be professional at all time, isn't there some time for casual?


that depends on what you mean "for casual". try appyling a simple thought experiment to the things you do in your free time like 'if this became public would i be fired from my team?' if yes, don't do it.

So a good reason not to do something is because there's a remote chance someone will vengefully recruit some people from the internet who have nothing to do with your job to lambast you to your sponsors? With no consideration for the possibility that those people might be dead wrong?


i don't think that what you just said had very much to do with what i did. but no, there are also moral reasons not to do something

The reason is you're just black boxing the mechanism of "this will get me fired." It's not the case that bad things always get people fired, or that people who don't do bad things don't get fired. There are ethical bases for an expectation of privacy. What's the reason I should care at all what other people do in private?

the expectation of privacy is a mistake and nothing that should be assumed. thats not my opinion thats how things are. he's a public figure on a team whose revenue is dependent on sponsorships therefore what he does in private could have consequences for him.

Yes, it's pragmatic to be wary of the fact that there could always be someone watching. I was speaking ethically, that's why I said "ethical," so unless you're going to take the position that people shouldn't have privacy, you haven't contradicted me, just dodged the point.

Your analysis is on the level of "well watch out, sometimes if you go outside, you might get shot." That doesn't mean people are going to stop going outside, or that we should stop working to fix our society so we don't shoot people.
all the while you may not care but other people may

No, why should anyone care? What's the reason? Your argument is someone should lose his job just because he did something in private, someone violated that privacy, and someone else... cared?

basicly he just had bad luck enraging the wrong people. im posting the link again and people should read it and then you know who emailed the sponsors. they listed all of destinys moves and found out he is a two faced lier with double standards and that pissed them off quite good...

Oh for fuck's sake, I bet everyone judging Destiny has said things in private conversations that would look just as bad if they got leaked. Get off your high horses.

Also, in pro sports this kind of behaviour is common as fuck, I really don't get why people are claiming it isn't? It just doesn't have any real kind of repercussion

I really don't even understand how any of this can be related to starcraft


This is why this scene has to get over this giant hump with the lack of professionalism with the players.

Chad Johnson headbutting his girlfriend has nothing to do with Football, but it got him kicked off the Dolphins didn't it?

You're associated with companies who intend on making money off a brand you wear on your shoulders. You're professionals at that point and your SPONSORS typically expect you to conduct yourself as such.

If the rest of the pro community is as short sighted as you're being, I really fear for the future of eSports.

since when do you have to be professional at all time, isn't there some time for casual?


that depends on what you mean "for casual". try appyling a simple thought experiment to the things you do in your free time like 'if this became public would i be fired from my team?' if yes, don't do it.

So a good reason not to do something is because there's a remote chance someone will vengefully recruit some people from the internet who have nothing to do with your job to lambast you to your sponsors? With no consideration for the possibility that those people might be dead wrong?


i don't think that what you just said had very much to do with what i did. but no, there are also moral reasons not to do something

The reason is you're just black boxing the mechanism of "this will get me fired." It's not the case that bad things always get people fired, or that people who don't do bad things don't get fired. There are ethical bases for an expectation of privacy. What's the reason I should care at all what other people do in private?

the expectation of privacy is a mistake and nothing that should be assumed. thats not my opinion thats how things are. he's a public figure on a team whose revenue is dependent on sponsorships therefore what he does in private could have consequences for him.

Yes, it's pragmatic to be wary of the fact that there could always be someone watching. I was speaking ethically, that's why I said "ethical," so unless you're going to take the position that people shouldn't have privacy, you haven't contradicted me, just dodged the point.

Your analysis is on the level of "well watch out, sometimes if you go outside, you might get shot." That doesn't mean people are going to stop going outside, or that we should stop working to fix our society so we don't shoot people.

all the while you may not care but other people may

No, why should anyone care? What's the reason? Your argument is someone should lose his job just because he did something in private, someone violated that privacy, and someone else... cared?

there is no privacy for people working in the entertaining industry, don't work in that field if it bothers you that much.

Wow it was PRIVATE conversation, as if you guys never did that. Ofc it was not ok to share nude pics of someone who trusted you, i wouldnt do it. But EVERYONE of us had this kind of "mantalk", judging girls on their looks, boobs whatever. Everyone who is saying he isnt doing it is either a) a liar or b) doesnt have any friends to do this kind of conversation. So dont be such hypocrites. I dont think that what destiny did was 100% ok, because it wasnt. It was not ok to share nude pics. Then again i guess both guys didnt know who she was.

Still i hate this "political correctness" shit because it is so twofaced and hypocritic. People messaging the sponsors are the WORST kind of people i could EVER imagine. You people are the reason why the world is fucking two faced. You people are making other people hold back about their TRUE thoughts and opinions because if they acutally would say their TRUE REAL opinions they most likely would suffer from any kind of public punishment. Thats why there is so much shit in the world that acutally shouldnt be there because nobody wants to talk the realtalk. Everybody keeps hiding their real opinion and exchanges his opionen with a "political correct" opionion so he/she doesnt have to suffer from any kind of punishment by the hypocrits.
Well this might post might be blown up too much for this kind of little thing but yet it is true. It will start to corrupt esports because if someone does something that is "inappropriate" some hypocrits will start messaging their sponsors and they will get punished. Great job. Hope you enjoy yourself making esports steril and colourless. I hope you enjoy yourself destroying the freedom of the top gamers to misbehave. We all play games to get a rest from the allday stuff and sometimes we misbehave and we do say stupid things, but that is a big part why we acutally like the gamingcommunity. And then all of a sudden if someone has some decent success and his "carreer" becomes public people want the gamers to change? For what reason? Take a way their joy in misbehaving? It is a part of esports its a part of the esports culture. Yes esports is becoming more professional but the professional side shouldnt ruin the basic concept. Our "escape" from the real world, even if it is just for a brief moment.

Now he did what? Having a private conversation with two guys and sending nude pictures of a girl he shouldnt have. Ok thats not correct but still this kind of mistake now forces a good friend of him to disband him from the team. This shit shouldnt have never ever any impact on his gaming career whatsoever, but yet it has, thanks to all the pathetic hypocrits out there.




"Political correctness" is a facet of everyday life now, whether it's Destiny or the highest level of politics. And you're completely wrong about the culture of "e-sports": one of the main facets of the FGC is that nobody is above criticism. You do something retarded, anybody can blow you up no matter how successful you are. You're asking that people shouldn't criticize Destiny for something he did, something that was crass and petty and unfortunately became public.

Oh for fuck's sake, I bet everyone judging Destiny has said things in private conversations that would look just as bad if they got leaked. Get off your high horses.

You missed the part where destiny shared nude pics to his friends, remain on our horse we shall.

basicly he just had bad luck


That's pretty much what this boils down too. His past certainly doesn't help him in this case, a little misogyny (while wrong) shouldn't be enough to crucify a guy. If only he didn't take those dick pics...lack of manscaping, that's the real crime here.
