This "stockholm syndrome" joke is neither funny nor well founded. Idra's recent form has nothing to do with the fact that he has gained fans throughout his career and those continuing to support him are actual fans. The number of people taking so much delight in this has made me truly ashamed to be a part of this community. It's one thing to dislike a player or condemn their actions, but it's another to go out of your way to shit on someone and anyone that has supported him because he got fired. | ||

Replace him with a girl that likes to clean?  | ||

Yes, causa Idra really didn't shit on anyone. | ||

If you dislike him for acting like that you have no excuse for acting like that yourself particularly when you yourself are the one condemning such behavior. | ||

The whole community is a bunch of hypocrites and that's exactly what his last past was about. Don't bother with logic it's not understood here. | ||

Basically, what he said induces the management told him to treat EG fans as "fuckers"... that's the main point | ||

It pretty clearly states his frustration with the communities double standards as a whole. | ||

Idra will disappear. Rumors will start flying around about where he went. More time will go by and his name will only come up from time to time. Then 6 months later a random barcode Zerg will be smashing everyone on the ladder. 1 year later Idras name will randomly appear in code A Idra wins CODE A Idra GG's every game. Fast foreword Code S final, Game 1, Idra gets cannoned. Idra "GG WP" Idra wins next games WINS code S. Idra is more buff than Incontrol. In an interview idra reveals that he lived with monks in Tibet during his time off. Idra becomes unstoppable. Idra retires, starts a line of home cook wear that is surprisingly high quality. | ||

Not being a virgin is more often considered as mature than immature. IdrA technically complimented all EG fans. Unless of course you break out the figurative meaning, but that ruins the fun.

I didn't act like that myself, I just pointed towards the double standards. In other words, he is on the receiving end this time yet he's still come ahead in all this. The money and following he's earned with horrible behavior so far can't be taken away so I don't see how he is such a victim. He'll find a new job easily and keep riding the wave, all this as a reward for his lack of respect towards people who make it all possible for him. And he's still going to be supported by the same people he takes a dump on. | ||
