Nobody in NA wants to be associated with what would be considered pedophilia, especially the sponsors. For those of you who follow American football, we just had that huge Sandusky scandal in college football. EG is an NA team and most of the sponsors that support them are based in NA. Though the Jerry Sandusky scandal and the Stephano comment are on completely different scales, it portrays a poor image. Very sensitive topic in the U.S. You speak about a country which was afraid about a breast in a football final! | ||

This is the long and short of the issue. All the other talk about what is and isn't acceptable or moral or legal is tangential to the actual specific case we are dealing with. | ||

Dumb dumb bling showing it to butthurt viewers. It ended up becoming public, ie: not private anymore. Therefore Stephano has to be held accountable. Because the words did come out into the open he has already tarnished the images of companies and himself and other players. You could also argue "How can anyone in their right mind think its appropriate to say something like that over the internet or through SC2?" The amount of players that stream their play whether they are professional players or not is pretty high. Why say something like that when you don't have complete anonymity? If he were going to say it, he should have just chosen a more secure line of communication, instead of one of the most watched/played games in esports. | ||

For the last couple of weeks Stephano have been doing and saying stupid shit on his twitter and facebook. One , Playing WoW after losing Dreamhack , next asking if he was competing in the next Dreamhack. Dropping out of major events and not playing against Korean pros. I think Stephano have got a little too cocky. EG just bring his ass back down to earth. I'm so glad he decided to spend this time in Korea work on his skills. Stephano is good but to stay good he need take this more serious. If he's not going to take his JOB serious then retire and go school. | ||

That's what I meant to say but still he should have checked. He know that most of the pros stream. Like I said Stephano has been doing a little stupid shit for the last couple of weeks now. "sigh" "Kids with money " | ||

Try Google Translate  It's nothing special/big, just a summary of what happened, that he got arrested at Dreamhack for being too drunk, and that he/EG players makes a lot of money. I really love that because of the official EG statement, this has really spread to everywhere. | ||

People who don't care about this joke and whose relationship with Stephano, EG, and their sponsors is unchanged: 98% People who are very emotionally affected by this and whose relationship with Stephano, EG, and their sponsors has changed for the worse: 0.01% People who are power hungry internet trolls: 1,99% (My stats also conclude that these guys try to be as obnoxiously vocal about this and oddly enough it turns out that everyone in this group is a sad douche and/or idiot in their own lives) | ||
