Please clean up the quality of your posting. This thread has definitely taken a turn for the worse. |
Can't people just not type stupid shit? I mean, is that really that hard?
|
What's done is done, I think its best to drop it, since there's basically two sides of this argument and none of them will concede their view point ever. Punishment was dealt to a person who deserved it, and people's view points were made. We can probably just move on now.

I posted it to the public because I was hurt by the comment. I understand why it was offensive and the line he crossed, it's just not a battle that effects me personally in any way so I'm attempting to state it with some perspective. Even if you were hurt by his comment. you talk about controlling self as well. By posting to the public, you brought drama/hate at a person who you claim "needs some help." All that hate isn't exactly going to help the guy either. All I'm saying is there are better ways to handle these scenarios being in the professional position you are. You can't just dish advice and not be able to eat it yourself. Who said I can't take advice as well? I should have controlled myself and went behind the scenes instead of posting it to the public. I haven't argued otherwise. Then, why did you post in this thread talking about him and control, you already got your point across and punishment has been handed down. There's no need to continue throwing more kindling on a wildfire......... I can't have a single post in the thread explaining my end?
Do what you gotta do, just keep in mind the consequences. This community is relentless when pitchforking.

"welcome... to the real world" If it's surprising to you, you better get used to it, sadly ^^

Let me just state that people should think twice before speaking their asses off here. TB might sound overly aggresive to some of you, but real life diseases we are talking about here makes you stop closing eyes before random harmful insults such as Ruff's comment you would otherwise let go. So get some perspective and real view on things before judging and arguing.

Honestly, anyone bogged up in drama/controversy has already made a bad name for themselves in my book.

You can't hate ragers for raging while also contributing to their rage. There are a lot of players who try to be good people in general but lose themselves sometimes and cross the line. And there are also a lot of people who know exactly where the line is and have complete control of themselves and are as big of assholes as they can get away with, especially to the ragers. It'd be nice if everyone tried to be productive and helpful, and not see every guy who crosses the line as an opportunity to be hateful and get away with it.
I'm not saying ruff and minigun are examples of either end of the spectrum. I'm just using this latest drama as an opportunity to point out this reality. Ruff doesn't deserve to be a punching bag because of this one comment and everyone who ever prodded him on for their own amusement is partially responsible. I used to think people should take a laugh whenever they can get it, but sometimes it's just too selfish and a fellow human being deserves more than being laughed at for their shortcomings.
completely agree with everything. And as someone who often goes full retard after losing and flames i hope my opponents understand as i do that most bullshit said right after a loss is just to vent and that i think none of it, and i feel bad about it later on everytime.
I can't stand players that pretend to be manner in public say gg every time they lose but then try to push your buttons with their actions or the way they play and sometimes even by just doing things like manner mules, who the fuck is it that decided that this was fine but not saying gg is not. So i complete disagreement with a lot of those things i have decided not to write gg anymore after losing a game EVER and rather to congratulate my opponents later on with a message or if offline a handshake.
There are players that think that the fact i also dont chat ( so no gl aswell ) in start of games is because i'm bm or i don't like them but really it's just because i must have add and forgot my gameplan a million times after geting too chatty early on in games and went on autopilot with my build.
Anyway what RuFF said is obviously pretty bad and i'm not saying he was punished too harshly, what i can tell u is that i and many others have said much worse and we obviously didnt mean it so i hope it will be left at that and there will be no more bashing from anybody.

One would say you should then go ahead and apologize to Ruff for not handling it correctly. Just saying, to keep it fair. I admit my thinking is twisted here.. :p

I agree with Nony's point, also this faux outrage that occurs over every morally questionable thing that the famous and influential do has really seeped into this scene. We're no better than E News and the likes these days , 25 page thread on Ruff, really?
That said, I also feel he was in the wrong and Minigun was right to stick screenshots up there.
