Stephano never even said it was a statutory rape joke, for all we know he ment it as he held the little boy/girl down and abused him/her.

Guys, we know as a fact that it was a JOKE.

It was inappropriate, so it was sanctioned.

no need for a 120 pages debate on the word abused from a french guy .

And yeah we all fucking agree : rape is bad, pedostuff is bad ... we got your point guys.

Waving your arms in the air yelling about a joke isn't gonna help your ladder points,plus you Americans need to practice to reach the Europeans level

Just seems like a cheap excuse not to pay Stephano. Esports needs a damn union or at the very least an organization that is non profit that will determine who gets suspended and why. Theres no doubt that corruption is behind some of these suspensions where they dont pay the players for a month. Especially a really good and more than likely high salary player such as Stephano.

Also, its in my opinion that anyone 16 or older has the right to have sex with an adult without the younger person accusing the other of "rape". At 16 you have enough cognitive ability and are practically adult enough to make your own decisions.


It doesn't happen in esports only. People get suspended because others get butthurt over them every day.
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/soccer-player-suspended-homophobic-tweet-357233

I really, really hate articles like that. Basically the media outlet will say 'offensive tweet' but not actually reproduce it so that the audience can actually make up its mind regarding how they feel about it. Offense is a very malleable thing, and only with reproduction can we actually decide as a reader whether it was, or wasn't offensive.

Consent laws are there for a reason too, but equally they are a catchall policy, not to mention they vary from country to country. You'll have people at 15 or 16 who are extremely mature for their age, but legally in some countries cannot give consent, likewise you'll have people in their 20s who are complete fucktards.

Not advocating for their removal by any means, but people mature at different rates. Also for all the people saying Stephano has acted very immaturely, well then maybe he's just finding his level with the young ones right?

We don't know as a fact it was a joke, just has a high probability of that being a joke. Even if it was, suspension is very well deserved, defending him against suspension is silly, defending him against rape is justified. If it wasn't a joke ........

He could have just cornered a 14 year old and beat the shit out of him. Thats a much better joke right?

He could have said he killed someone, but unless you're privy to evidence that none of the rest of us have seen (in which case you should be talking to the Police nationale), essentially you're worked up over words a guy said on battle.net.

Both Bling and Stephano confirmed it was a private joke, And read my post again, you might find out that I am not defending anything just saying that the 120+ page debate on the subject is ridiculous.

Now I shall let you go on for hours about how bad rape is, this is a point that obviously needs to be made, we Europeans are totally unaware of such basic moral and should be reminded of it for another hundred pages...

If he indeed did it, ofc he will say that's a joke. You can't take their own words for that. And yes, you Europeans should know some kinky sex are bad as much as you love it.

In US, since we just finished the huge lawsuit on the Penn state coach, it is very sensitive in US right now, EG can't take any chances.

All of you miss a point. You talk if its rape this rape that. The thing is that if its fucking right. Grown up man ( 19yo ) doin anything with 14 yo kid, that barely has gotten into puberty is sick. There is no need for it to be a name in a law to actually know that its disgusting.

Someone posted earlier that it's normal and nothin unnsual for 19 y.o to do sexy time with 14 year old kid. Man what the fuck. Where u guys were growing up. It's huge difference when u are still somewhat young, and 5 years is a HUGE difference. If Stephano was 29 and this girl 24, then ofc no problem. But this? You guys are fuckin sick.

Also now he is trying to turn this into a joke. U can clearly see that this wasnt a joke when u look on the chat and his friends reaction when he actually was serious.

I don't really care, if the joke is offensive. He should be denounced since he is a public figure.

Am I to take it you've gone from having found Stephano guilty of a crime to being offended by what he said on battle.net? Did you consider just not paying any mind to words you don't like instead of blaming someone else for saying them?

That's pretty ironic really, given the amount of people who defended Joe Paterno for doing nothing about actual child abuse because he was a good football coach.

Not saying it was the majority of you good folk by any means, but it was a sizeable minority, even on TL which I feel in general is a bit more educated than the general populace of its constituent nations.

I don't think that's sick. 14 year old girls are well into their puberty. Look at "Rebecca Black" for example.
