At least there you are right. Other than that, to me who learned english in school round about 20 years ago, the sentence in question is understandable as it is, so i don't really get the nitpicking (maybe i missed something again). Still, complaining about a community and just insulting people left and right with every single comment is actually stupid, im sorry. Well from my previous English Prose Writting class in Uni level, the professor told us that if you are going to use and in anyway but not specifying any relation to the previous words, then it is entirely a separate course action. So essentially, that's how I read it. But I'm not really trying to insult anyone right here lol, well beside rightfully calling him a hothead. Really, I'm trying to justify my own words to which people got annoyingly pissed off over the freaken internet. And this is a good opportunity for me to not waste any time just idling.

Those are the three separate action to the initial subject. By that definition they are deliberately timing the statement so Jessica couldn't respond to it.
Its either that or TB isn't able to use simple conjunction English words.
Edit: now I think about it, it could very well be the later case, disappointed man. I don't post much on here and I greatly appreciate the in depth information on these boards but this sort of peanut gallery criticism taking one line totally out of context like a political commercial in the making makes me want to throw up. You should work for Fox News. Y'know what? I probably should work at a reeputable news station because of all the cash I'll receive from it. That's a really good idea. Throw up all you want man, this context matters greatly. Again see the difference of excluding 'and', and replace it with 'so that we can deliberately...' in connection to the previous clause. Without it, it just seemed to detached from it and worked as a completely separate course of action, unrelated to the PR accusation. And TB's responds to it isn't much better people. He went automatically into defensive mode and attacked me after the very first post regarding the event instead of addressing the syntax behind the words. Like come on, the least one could have done is not act like a darn hothead. What matters is what he meant and I had to read all of that bs just to sort out that it was some disgruntled poster twisting his words. I thought this was actually an issue until I realized it was nothing and you and who ever else was just wasting everyone's time. I've heard of fans jumping the gun and lighting the pitchforks before both sides can be told but I've never ran into anything like this (unless it had a political motive) to snobbishly twist someone's words and make a brazen bold faced lie an issue out of thin air, just because you disagree with his grammar. You do realize that TB haven't responded yet to my arguments so hey who knows what he could have really meant with the words. There really is no way of telling. But here TB plays a large role in this whole conflict. I can't believe that I'm the only concerned with the accuracy of the story's development. I don't want any ambiguities between the arguments of either parties (Jessica and Axiom). So with that in mind, TB should definitely start to clear some things up about his intentions.
There's is a way of telling what he meant with his words. It's called grammer. We know exactly what he meant because his grammer and syntax are 100% correct. You misinterpreted the sentence, get over it.

I clicked this thread to see what sort of petty arguments were keeping it going...and reading this last page, WOW. I can't even fathom how far my IQ just dropped.

Slayers was synonymous with Blue Flame Hellions. Always lining up dem workers.
Sad to see them go.

This is my first post on these forums however I have been lurking for well over 2 years (stalking level epic).
We as a community are not entitled to direct access to players. We as a community have no right to interrogate players/ community heads/ sponsors. E-sports is a business and although what happened to slayers is not on the same level as the match fixing scandal it is a very major blow. And stating that X is timing their response so Y can't respond is profoundly stupid you would think that nobody would have to explain why but apparently the internet is populated by mouth breathing morons. Do you think that Totalbiscuit is somehow timing this so that Jessica can never respond or rebuke anything that crank is going to say in response? How the hell does that work? Is TotalBiscuit going to hire an assassin to somehow take Jessica out of the picture just as the article is posted? Is he going to surgically remove her vocal cords and cut off all her fingers? Tell me how in the modern age you can time a statement so that the other side cannot respond? Your grasping at straws and need to let it go.

Actually I'm going to break my self ban from the thread until TB comes in because for all we know, he is probably busy sleeping with his wife anyways today.
First of all, welcome to TL.net. Its a scary but you are going to love it!
Secondly, in terms of this thread, for the past 3 pages, I was the main character that played in it.
And lastly, well TB was the first one that said those absurd assumptions. So yes, I'm definitely with you on the "How the fuck is he going to that?" club.
But hey enjoy your stay here. As long as you follow the Ten Commandments, you'll be relatively unscathed.

TB didn't say anything that could be construed as those absurd assumptions. You did. Stop trolling please.

Personally i'm actually quite surprised you'd be responding beyond what is required (e.g. Crank is releasing a statement and the reasons for the delay), considering you probably already know how the internet mob is like haha. But i guess maybe love for esports might be a strong motivator I love eSports and hate dumb people. Potent cocktail.

Not sure which one of us is the ugly one here.

Please explain how exactly he's saying that. Does he say "We're deliberately timing the statement so that Jessica couldn't respond to it"? No. Does he say "I'm deliberately timing the statement so that Jessica couldn't respond to it"? No. He says he got accused of X and Y. Nobody else here agrees with you.

I would but no need because you can most likely find the explanation somewhere in the thread and that would be redundant on my part. So go and fetch it yourself.

He said he got accused of such things not that he did it.

However, wait. There might be statements incoming from the participating parties in the case. Where would they post it? Them making a whole thread just to say something seems counter-intuitive to me.

What. The. Fuck.
The first time I come back to TL for half a year and everything's going to hell in a handbasket.
I'm going to leave now and not come back until college apps are done. Best of luck to everyone.

Wow....this thread has been here for what, 3 days? And it has 400k+ views....in 3 days!!!!
Whereas the general hacking thread has been around for so long and it only has 500k+....
This is truly a sad news for eSports..

Nah, it's because he got warned by a mod. He's the head of an organization and behaves nothing like one. The fact that he got so riled up and started responding in the way he did is quite sad.
Let's wait on the statements for now shall we, instead of this senseless bickering.

I don't understand why TB (or anyone) even bothers to respond to some of the absolutely inane posts that are being made here. By this time I'm convinced that Xiphos is trolling, plain and simple. And he's pretty good at it, too.
