And make a private post on facebook between work colleagues to later find out you have been fired because someone found it offensive and it is against company ethics.

Next time Stephano shouldn't say stupid shit to this degree if he doesn't want to lose a month's salary.

Most of the players are either young teenagers or young adults. They have to grow up rather fast and in many cases they need to be coached on how to conduct themselves as a pro athlete especially considering gamer language has always been low brow and degrading.

I certainly don't see teams giving them PR coaching.

Yeah exactly, these are young arrogant immature gamer types, not polished professional PC athletes (who conversely say all the right things but fuck up in real life). What did you really expect?

Do like STX and only contract people who you have confidence in being mature and professional. If they are young then coach them on how to act. If they don't learn then let them go.

I think it's obvious that Korea just has a better gaming culture, in attitude and skill, and when it comes to this kind of "humor." They don't need to be coached like this: "Okay guys, welcome to the team, but for the love of God, do not joke about being a pedophile. I can't stress this enough."



i think its obvious that koreans are trained to always "play the best for the fans" as i call it. They have no character, no rough edges. Thats why people like dragon and MC stand out so much. Thats also why stephano stands out so much.

"Better"? The majority of are anti social and lack confidence. Over 2 years in and there is still only 1 MC and a handful on guys confident enough to not have an awkward interview.

I can tell you guys don't follow the scene very closely.

Double standards? On the internet? Never.

When football players do this they get fined, simple. Stephano has essentially been fined as well. What else is there to it? A punishment has been made, that should be the end of it.

Deserves him right, I've said it before and I'll say it again:

Stephano needs to act more professional else he'll be left on second rate teams who can handle the massive negative PR.

Are you implying Nony, one of the real pillars of this community, and who has given more to the scene than most is uneducated? I mean, cuz you'd be 100% wrong.

Bringing this up kinda proves that we're overly sensitive more than anything else, if we're going to use "get real bitch" as something that we should take issue with.

Idra said David Kim should get raped with a tire iron.

I don't want to discuss which statement is worse.
But this was entirely forced by people emailing the sponsors. Its really sad. Stupid trolls are killing esports.

By "this", you meant the stephano incident? where did you hear this from, or how do you know?

If that's what Idra said it's far worse (yet still not worth much or any punishment) for many reasons:

1. I assume he said thing in a knowingly-public environment, not an assumed-to-be 1-on-1 private conversation.

2. It is specifically a hateful or abusive comment towards a particular person or group.

3. Idra said that statement in his primary language to which he is very proficient in.

4. While it's pretty obvious he doesn't mean it, the statement is clear, and there's nothing implied. In Stehano's case, his statement is extremely ambiguious, and not sexual whatsoever, and no one but Stephano himself can claim that he implied anything — you can only infer based off what he said, and you may be inferring improperly


It's absolutely nonsensical that Stephano would get punished for this — at the worst there should have been some sort of stern warning. I don't even think this thing was news whatsoever until people heard that Stephano was punished. If it wasn't newsworthy to most people, why should EG care about it?

I don't know if it's just me not hearing about it previously, but as far as I know, there was no negative PR until EG specifically made a big deal about it. It's not his fault for making the negative PR, it's EG's.
"Then he told me to tell you that he wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire" — "Well, you tell him that I said that I wouldn't piss on him if he was on Jeopardy!"

Not sure why stephano joined EG in the first place, god knows he didn't need the money...Now all his behavior will be policed and EG has the right to stop him from joining tounaments.

It's all on him to be honest. If you're not smart enough to understand that you can't casually admit that you're a sex criminal when you are a public personality (or anyone, for that matter) then you deserve to spend a very bad couple of months while everything is sorted out.

Because that's what you guys do.

You realize EG did this thing because the fuckep up people of SRS massively emailed the sponsors, right ?

I understand that EG is a business, but surrendering to SRS, seriously ? Those dicks can pretty much do anything to this (already) terrible community now.
