Do you have any evidence Stephano had sex with a girl in France who was 14 years old, and whose age he didn't make a reasonable effort to determine beforehand (applicable in French cases as corroborated by earlier posters)? If you do, shouldn't you be talking to the Police nationale instead of TL? No he should not. That is not a felony but a dismeanor, and not anyone can press charge against him for that (I think only the victim, if she feels such, and her parents could). | ||

Stephano can say whatever the fuck he wants as long as it's not breaking the law. EG can also suspend him for whatever reason they want too! He doesn't own EG. If he wants to be on a pro team where he can say dumb shit and still get paid, he needs to either switch teams or create his own. He is free to do so. | ||

So you didn't think French age of consent law was relevant to Stephano at all, who happens to be the subject of the thread? That is, do you have a reason for commenting on the knowledge or ignorance of posters with respect to French age of consent law? If not, it would appear to be a non-issue. The people in this thread could be ignorant of string theory, but if I posted that, I guarantee it wouldn't look the least bit relevant. | ||

This is completely irrelevant to the discussion we were having. Again, my previous comments were not about Stephano at all. | ||

If making jokes about having sex with underage girls is "being themselves" then it is "themselves" that I don't like and wouldn't support regardless of how mainstream the scene is. I'm getting too old for the gaming community I guess, I'm sure I would've been one of the people saying this is no big deal 10 years ago. Hold on. Stephano never said he had sex with a 14 year old. He may have just hit on a 14 year old girl, making a complimentary but sexually suggestive remark, not knowing her age afterwards, or made out (petting) or just been joking about doing so. 'abuse' is fairly vague word. Maybe a 19 year old making out with a 14 year old is illegal. Stefano making a joke about it could be a way of seeking clarification. I'm not willing to condemn him the basis of the few off color remarks. Even if Stephano was making a joke about sex. He did appear to believe it was a confidential conversation. What if it's just his way of inquiring from a peer what is legally and/or socially acceptable? I think you're making assumptions about his intent (gloating) that are not necessarily accurate, he may have been attempting to make a moral inquiry. edit: s/abuse/molest | ||

Yes I have a reason to comment on the knowledge or ignorance of posters. These posters are part of the Sc2 community. If these people have a detrimental behavior then we have an issue. After reading this thread, I for one say that if I had kids, I'd think twice before bringing them to a NA starcraft event. | ||

You could just chalk that up to "english-as-a-second-language". BLING said "fucked", not Stephano. This has been repeated ad-nauseum but people keep going on and on about how Stephano said he raped a 14 year old. The word rape never once showed up, it takes a pretty sick mind to go from "abuse" in the context of StarCraft to "rape" IRL. Abuse could mean so many things, including "beating at StarCraft". Hell, so many players directly say RAPE and yet we understand the context of this. For all we know he could have roflstomped Life on the KR ladder. Once again, thank you to the SCReddit community for screen capping an irrelevant 5 seconds of a stream, and getting a lot of fans favourite player get suspended. I know that my October is significantly less exciting without Stephano participating in leading foreign tournaments. It boggles my mind how people think "exposing" some kind of alleged misbehaviour will help the scene, or help fans, or help organizations. The tattletales do nothing but hurt the community. EG's suspension does nothing except hurt the fans. | ||

'Unfortunate' really is the only word I can use to describe this :/ true but unfortunate situation has to be dealt whether anyone likes to do it or not. That's how it works in real world. you wanna get paid? gonna have to give up bit of your freedom. especially when you are in a spot light. | ||

I am upset with EG's decision, if i was stephano I would enter dreamhack n the other competitions under a alias name. Win the prize money and do it for the fans. Fuck EG Edit: MC is also the size of the whole foreign community. Literally. Never liked MC, felt he was too arrogant. At least he has the balls to go murloc or even undertaker! I liked Stephano in the beginning, lost some respect for him through his arrogance, but that was too much. If your job is to be likeable, and you make money of having fans, you can't behave like that. | ||

EG's suspension does nothing except hurt the fans. Does the word "abuse" even better than "fuck"? I would say abuse is even worse than fuck, since in most case "fuck" means that the girl agreed to have sex with him. But the word "abuse" definitely means the girl disagrees with his action, even just hitting is pretty bad. | ||

I know most people here think rape jokes are the pinnacle of humor and basically fall off their chairs laughing at mere implication of non consensual sex, but me and most of my friends are quirky and weird counter-culture beatnik hipsters that aren't big fans of rape. Rape is just too popular for us to like I guess. So if I try to watch a stream with someone I have to preface it with "hey this is cool, aliens vs space marines, real time chess, just don't mind all the fucking nonstop racism, rape jokes, homophobia etc. Just don't worry about that part! No stop where are you going it's just about to get good. | ||

And also JOKE = NOT SERIOUSLY, it doesnt have to be funny. | ||
