He's from Scotland, and wanting to have the Scottish flag next to his name is BM o_O? I see the English flag everywhere as well (e.g. World Cup Football I think?), so that's also BM then? How can you be insulted if someone just wants his own flag (yeah I know Scotland is part of UK).
Lol i dont like jrecco at all but bashing him for wanting scottish flag is just beyond ridiculous.

He's also trillion times more talented than you are .

Aww, did I really get under your skin? Trolls are cute when they can't think of their own retort.

From an outside perspective it looks likr you are the troll baiting for reactions and doing it by copying what he said.
Wait... am I also getting trolled by you now...

Calling yourself Johnny Reco is like calling yourself God. Even Boxer would not be able to live up to the name. It's sacrilegious to name yourself after a character in such a awesome 90's movie. I saw it while making out with a chick in the theaters. Was he even born yet? Don't ruin my memories man!
As for the player, all I know is he is young and one of many mid-level pro Zergs out there - its going to be hard for him to make a name for himself (esp with HoTS). Good luck to him but hopefully he has long-terms plans to complete his education.

Shame, nice guy in person. Good move though, would of been silly to sign the contract.

LOL. But no you don't have to worry, they just ban/warn people who are being dicks to each other, unlike in Blizzard's forums where that happens regularly.
I'll remember Jonnyrecco for beating Naniwa. It shows he has some potential, or Naniwa just was never good against zerg. Hopefully he finds a way back in Hots!

Actually it just has to be off topic but not offensive!
I wonder what Jr will do now...

Cloud is pleased about this.

If what JRecco said is true it sheds a very bad light on Dignitas. We haven't heard the other side of the story and there isn't evidence against what he's said, so we can use the principle of charity to try and understand what's happened (in its narrowest sense, the goal of this principle is to avoid attributing irrationality, logical fallacies or falsehoods to the others' statements, when a coherent, rational interpretation of the statements is available).
Therefore at time of writing, at the very least we must say that Dignitas management handled the situation in an unprofessional manner, given the language used with a player in such a serious matter. At the very worst we can deduce from JRecco's account that he was misled or lied to about a potential salary. Surely then based on the accounts available to us we must side with the "little guy" in the situation, and not the business who seem to have at best treated him unprofessionally, and at worse reneged on a promised salary?

so Dignitas arent the good guys everyone claims them to be. Glad someone exposed them. A couple people get a free ride in this community from being hyped as good guys when in truth , they are all the same. Business drives business. So people do business things, Dignitas didnt find johnny worth being paid a salary, johnny didnt like that and left. Odee going "lol" if true, is pretty disrespectful . Im glad i did not donate when his top floor burnt down. Total biscuit can go ride somebody else's dick.

I met Jonnyrecco at Assembly Summer 2012 and he was an awesome guy, one of the people I ended up hanging out with the most at the event. I'm wondering where everyone's getting all these "bm" comments from, he was one of the nicest / humblest guys. All I've heard is he sometimes whines about imbalance in games but has the way he's done it been particularly bm or something?
|
In my exp, all progamers rage, but irl they are quite the nice persons =) Only Satiini is an jerk imo.
I meet recco at wcs eu finals and hes a great guy ! Most of the progamers i worked with rages yea, but that dosnt make em have a bad personality =)
Dont hate that much on him, and u cant blame him for leaving dig, if they promised him stuff they didnt act on anyway.
Gl to recco in the future =)

Yeah I've been looking on with a sense of schadenfreude for a few pages now as more and more people get sucked in. Oh well.
Look, the kid's young, young players carry themselves poorly and are generally very emotional. I'll reiterate that it bothers me far less to hear about "BM" from a kid that still has to mature as a player and a person than from Italian players old enough to have retired (or from elsewhere of course).
Personally I think he should've never been promised a salary the way he's playing, that might've avoided a lot of this hassle. He's always been a talent, but needs to come through with results first. It's not hard to see where his options are and he's unlikely to get a better offer elsewhere.
