I love how a user called "F.O.A.D" (who's been recently banned as well, if I'm not mistaken) berates a 30 something year-old as being "too immature" while also being a condescending prick and trying to enforce his opinion on others. I find this quite humorous tbh.

The scene is dominated by adults trying to be kids, full of people with the Peter Pan syndrome.
Genna, you can't just leave your post at the first scandal. You have responsibilities.
And btw, posting private conversations is totally suable.

Being a 30 something year-old does not mean that he or she have attain the appropriate maturity level suitable for the age. Many teens or even child have more mature thoughts and behavior than their older counterparts. FOAD is simply calling it as he sees it.
"That's like, just your opinion man." is a last ditch effort to salvage w/e a dignity left there is for the losing side and is itself a very pathetic act of attempting to leave the argument arena by committing ad hominem.

Yes but this is only partially true. You see, it's like this:
If you claim to be a professional, you have to act the part. No matter how much you want to "speak your mind" you still have to be polite and politically correct. When huge companies like Microsoft and Sony are at "war" with each other, you don't see the CEO of MS writing things like "oh, and btw, FUCK YOU Sony" on twitter. If you write stupid kiddy stuff online as a so called professional, you have to act the part! That isn't the first time, that TB forgot, that he has to behave a certain way.
I'm not trying to bash on him. He has obviously done a lot, but some things are just not ok.

The whole thing is super amusing in context of my work day, since I am drafting a motion in which we are submitting another attorney’s emails to us as evidence of him negotiating in bad faith and withholding information. I would also feel bad about it, except I am holding the invoice for the thousands of dollars he cost my client. Although not exactly the same, releasing discussions and emails is pretty minor is my book when it comes to be a professional. If I am going to say things I don’t want repeated, I call people on the phone.
Business is mean and not everyone is going to like you in the end. Although I don’t always agree with TB, I respect that he is at least honest about that aspect of things and doesn’t try to hide it. It is refreshing in a scene that seems very focused on selling the idea that we are one big happy family of SC2 players all the time.

Comparing the statements of Genna and Take tells the whole story. It was these 2 personalities having this dispute, and when you look at which one through a hissy fit and said "i quit!", it all makes sense. Wishing you the best, Take, I look forward to the competition. Good riddance, Genna.

I liked Genna. She seemed to have things under control pretty well.
TotalBiscuit knows what he has to do, so I trust that he will keep Axiom going,

Who are you submitting those emails to? The public?
Are you doing this as a last resort, or as a first step?
There's a point at which such conversations may end up being public. Step 1 of discussions is not it.

I'm still kind of trying to process what happened here, but I'm pretty staggered by everything.
I like TakeTV, I like Axiom, I like Genna, and I like TB (even though I disagree with the way he shoots his mouth off sometimes). It's really unfortunate that everyone's name is being dragged through the mud right now and it hurts everyone involved.
I'm shocked by the way Genna/TB are acting though. The only thing they're doing right now is torpedoing Axiom. Nobody is going to want to sponsor a team that releases private conversations, is managed by a guy who trashes event organizers on twitter, and appears to lack business acumen entirely. If they're hurting for money now it's only going to get harder as a result, and that's really sad because I think Axiom is a fun team and good for the scene. Their openness was refreshing, but in this case they've been way too open about the wrong things.

To the court, which makes it public. Its the fastest way to prove he has been acting in bad faith and counter his claims that we refused to communicate. It is not the only way, but it is fastest. It is also underhanded, but we don't really care. There has been some debate, but we want him to knock it off, so we are taking a shot at him in open court to prove a point. Its mean and some would call it unprofessional, but others would say that the other side earned it by withholding information. Everyone has their own opinion on the subject, even in my office. .

Sometimes I wish that people would just shut up. Silence is a virtue more often than not in eSports; more drama is definitely what this scene needs.

As much as it seems like a bit of a dick move by Take to get so angry over so little, I have to agree with you. Yep, she should of asked to post that conversation before she did, that much is obvious. Then, she could of said 'oops sorry didn't mean no offense just wanted to clear up the situation- its not like I edited anything,' but no instead she quits right away in the face of some hate. Everybody makes mistakes, the community and esports organisations will forgive you, it feels weak to just run away like that. I mean I don't even know what it accomplishes since she's with TB. Now she doesn't have to deal with the mess she created? Cmon.

the sc2 community sure does love drama x_X

I wonder how many people in this thread arguing about "unprofessionalism" actually have a real job (or better, own a business).

You don't need to own a business or have a real job to get in touch or get a feeling of professionalism. While I think your main point was that there is too much bullshit in these 3 threads I guess which I can agree to. (if that was your point)

You may want to listen to TBs message on the subject. She has a lot of other stuff going on, like depression, being a mother and helping TB run his normal youtube stuff. The team proved to be to much for her to handle on top of all of that. To quote him: “…At some point you need to take a step back and focus on taking care of yourself and making sure your doing what you need to stay healthy.”
That doesn’t have to do specifically with the Take TV stuff, but the team in general. It’s a harder job that most people think.

It isn't necessary but it certainly helps to understand the situation. 'Professionalism' isn't as black and white as a lot of people make it seem. And, unfortunately, sometimes acting 'professional' isn't always the best thing to do. This situation is far more complicated than we can assume based on the handful of threads and posts provided.
But yeah basically so much BS and crap being flung around lately
