1. for some its funny for some not but still its a joke 2. if its not a joke its legal with 14 years in france so still no problem 3. the employer of stephano is AMERICAN and usa is know for being prude, perhaps more prude then some arabic states and 3 is the problem, if you know you have a prude employer you CANT write things like this without consequences. sure stephano didnt think about that because we here in europe normaly think a more "free" way then americans ... | ||

this is one of the reasons I wish there would be no more anonymity on the internet because would you dare to post the same things you just did if your name, location and face would be next to it? yeah right, cowards | ||

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? Yes, it was eventually overturned, but he still got into trouble. I don't think the court reimbursed him for the lost time. Stephano can appeal here too, no? | ||

Esports isn't professional enough where there's a system of appeals that you can follow which is a problem in itself, else Stephano can just appeal to the appropriate departments or organizations regarding mistreatment / bridge of contract terms / lack of rules of conduct set in ink, or argue statues of limitations etc etc etc. But that's between Stephano and EG, our opinions are irrelevant. | ||

It's easy to pretend you don't care what other people think when no one gives a shit what you do or think. | ||

Raping 14 year olds is legal in France? Sounds new to me. Please stop that ridiculous "America-So-Prude" gibberish. EG is just a professional organization with serious sponsors. That's the only reason they sanctioned Stephano. | ||

I don't "post" them, I tell them to my living, breathing friends, with my name, location, and face right there. It's not a big deal no matter what the medium is. That's why they're jokes. | ||

Its not a small time team they got the biggest esport site in Frence and got more money then most teams in the scene. They just wouldn't care about the latest drama like any intelligent person should unless of course you a woman that loves soap opera | ||
