Yeah, but Destiny lost his job and career. She just lost... what? in two days nobody will remember about her.

I'm not a fan of Destiny and his big mouth but I still can't understand why some people still think the monster is he, while is clearly obvious that it is she.

Next time think twice about sending nude pics of you to a man. Unless you can accept his friends are gonna see you nude also, and analize every and all the details. Like the girls don't do it also.

He didn't lose his career, he said he'll be at ministry of win going "hardcore" with sc2. He doesn't seem very affected by this, and knowing his personality he'll forget about this in a couple days.

This is what most people forget to take into account when speaking from their high horses. I hope something like this happens to them at work to stop them from judging so hard other people and lives.

What a shame. I always thought ROOT was a team of guys who didn't give a fuck and that was what was cool about them and seperated them from the rest and made me support them


But I guess in these days of SC2, everyone is the bitch of douchebags that whine to sponsors. Also, the girl is a cunt.

These comments exactly.

I dont agree with his actions...but the people who emailed sponsors about this are 3x worse. Those guys are killing esports. It does nobody good if sponsors pull out.

Leave the fucking sponsor emails out of things like this.

... if you don't want the world to see nude pictures, don't have them.

Goes for both.

Either way, this doesn't influence my opinion about Destiny in any way. I still think there's room in the scene for a personality like his, and ... well ... a dick picture ... a nude ... it's not nice, but it's nowhere near the worst in the world either to me.

Catz did what he had to do. I feel really bad for Destiny though. If it wasn't for all the whiny b*tches in this community that mail teams/sponsors when their feelings or whatever get hurt, then a man wouldnt have lost his job. An eye for an eye? yeah right...

Where does it say Destiny lost his carreer ? He got removed from a team that's it. He's a profesional streamer, i'll take your statement when it's confirmed viewers dropped in mass and he can no longer suport himself.

Also Because you are a streamer your putting yourself at risk when you start asking for nude pics and pass them around to your bro's.
Actions gives reaction and the more known you are the bigger the reaction, and that is a simple fact Destiny should have realised when he started this all.

whoa whoa whoa....stop right there..
what?

she is 15?

wtf?

can't wait to hear Destiny's super philosophical uber silver tongued rationalization for what may be a crime.
Destiny's best move might be to pull an "OJ" and not say anything ever.

After getting some sound legal advice.. .this incident might finally shut him up.

What is this guy doing giving people his email, twitter etc passwords?


Nice Play...

Shakespeare.

1. She is not 15.. still. She still, now that we're 90 whatever pages in, still not 15 years old. She's in college.
2. She has his passwords because she helped him with scheduling and the like a long time ago.

I just hope that feminists as a whole aren't as short-sighted and callous as the idiots on reddit.

Consider if the positions were reversed. Bluetea posts a pic of destiny to 2 friends on skype, says he has a nice attractive penis but a hideous face. Destiny hacks her skype, gets pissed about his looks being insulted in a private conversation, and posts a naked picture of her to 40k plus people. Bluetea then gets kicked out of her college for the controversy, but doesn't leak the pictures of destiny.

Now with the bullshit misogyny angle gone in that hypothetical situation, who gets supported there? One person is so clearly in the wrong that it's ridiculous. In the real world, it's the exact same situation, just with the genders reversed. Honestly, at this point I think the only ones still damning Destiny are die-hard haters who want destiny eliminated from the scene no matter what, die-hard feminists who will never admit a woman is in the wrong, and die-hard white knights who believe that if they defend enough women on the internet one will magically love them.


so you replace minor, debatable misogyny with minor, debatable misandry and much less likely consequences? comparing root dropping destiny to a college expelling bluetea is just the worst analogy imaginable and becomes a complete non-sequitur.

there are very, very few people coming out and supporting bluetea's decision to punish destiny in a logical manner but rather in an emotional, empathetic manner - we can understand her immediate impulse for revenge, because people sharing your ultra-personal information like that is the sort of thing that clouds your judgment. what excuse did destiny have for fucking any of what he did besides casual, practiced callousness and what honestly comes off to me as a similarly casual disregard for the feelings of a woman when the bros need their potential fap material, bro?


He should have used her job in the analogy instead of her college. Other than that it's an apt analogy. He still made a great point that you didn't address. Would you be defending Steven's actions if he was the one that took revenge? I'm willing to bet most would be much less empathetic.

His conversation was crude but it was also supposed to be private. It's also one that most men I know have quite often.

depending on the states, what you and your friends are doing is illegal (photo part) and extremely insensitive to the person involved.

But I don't expect you to understand that


Mind finding the law where sharing a photo in private with friends is illegal? I understand you see it as insensitive, I just don't care what you think.

Not a lawyer, but in Michigan it is against the law to post picture with intent to harass or threaten other person. If any of your close buds ever leaked, you know where the blame will be heading.

It can also be considered Invasion of privacy, though much harder to prove.

So you do understand that it is insensitive, but you don't care for it? Or do you mean that you don't think it is insensitive?

There's a perfect word that describes unethical people like you

It sure isn't your job to re-read posts, or to find out the facts before you post. If you aren't willing to find out the facts, put effort in, or use common sense (ex: "Perhaps the OP or following posts were updated, I will check them real quick") then either
a) don't post
b) put a lot of "from what I've read"s and "from what I understand"s in your posts.

If you haven't noticed, getting dropped by teams is kind of a pattern for Destiny, and can be directly attributed to his laissez-faire, I-don't-care-what-other-people-say-or-think personality.

Well, sponsors tend to care what people think. And so do girls. And most people that don't sit around playing computer games all day.

Only teenage boys pretend not to care what other people think, but they're are so easily outraged it's pathetically transparent that they do.

When you're younger it's easy to confuse 'being true to yourself' with 'being an inconsiderate jackass'. The sad thing is, Destiny is a little too old for that and should know better by now.

Let's put it this way: someone with a little bit more maturity probably wouldn't talk shit about this girl, share nude pics of her with his buds, and none of this would have happened.

While I don't think he deserves to be kicked off a team, he was basically asking for trouble. Guys like Destiny will always have problems in their careers because of their I-don't-give-a-fuck-attitude, and will always have to make excuses about how unfair the world is and everyone is bullshit.
