It's nothing to do with French people, it's more to do with the persons background. You sir, are the one who is ignorant. So do you joke about raping 14 year olds to your friends? Yeah sure. | ||

I'd much rather be real and be myself, bad tasted jokes and all and NOT have a team, then to cut out a part of who I am to be on a team with these limitations I strongly suggest you not to go to any government buildings, nor airports. | ||

Sorry, I guess I was just mesmerized by all the source material you posted. I assume you're talking about Paul Chambers who made a joke during some inclement weather, and whose conviction was overturned on appeal? What was your point again? | ||

Intelligent people have the ability to not take things literally and they find the vulgarity of the jokes to be hilarious. It's nothing to do with being sick in the head, in fact I am quite well balanced when it comes to morals/feelings. I get disheartened when people die/when rape actually occurs/when someone dies from cancer close to me, but metaphorically speaking I couldn't give a shit. It's inappropriate to say things like that on a public forum, and I don't disagree with EG on their decision, but by no means do I look upon Stephano any differently. It's people like you that waste billions of tax payers money on Minority issues that aren't important. | ||

Also Stephano's statement feels fake. | ||

This thread should be closed, I can't believe TL is letting this thread open for discussion, he made a joke in poor taste, he got punished, end of story. You are letting the scum and the morons of our community come in here and make crazy conspiracy theories or speculate on shit that is none of their business, or people in here with mommy problems trying to say they were offended by a joke they could have avoided. Fucking A man... | ||

I don't know what country you from but in Denmark you can actually say whatever you want wherever you want. Its called freedom of speech and yes I know some countries think its fine to break those basic human rights laws in form of scare tactics but thank god I'm not born in one of those police stats | ||

To ban someone 1 month for being offensive on a public forum? If this was football, the charges would probably be worse =/ | ||

It's the same for all sports, so man up and see it as a good thing. I love the fact that Tasteless can call someone a douchebag during a GSL cast. I love that Husky is awkward and nerdy. I love that MC can dress like a freaking dinosaur and nobody mocks him. I don't want SC2 to be baseball. I don't want SC2 to be a presidential campaign. I want SC2 to be a bunch of nerds playing computer games and not being so damned insecure about whether other people share their passion. Also, if we could incorporate NAMBLA into the scene somehow... that would be tops... | ||

I don't really see how what you said pertains to what I said. I was trying to explain a logical reason behind why Stephano deserves punishment by adressing the very real likehood of a possible involvement of the police; any investigation based on someone's action has negative impacts, in this case on the EG team, its staff and the sponsors. | ||

I mean in what world would stephano's "joke" be considered funny? I do that kind of joke with friends... Bling streamed that, no chance, but on french SC2 websites, nobody care about that, rather on the punishment. | ||
