I imagine this is sarcasm and that he's not in agreement with something..?

Apparently he has something to say but won't or wants people to believe there is something more to it.. Either way I'm not a fan of what he is doing.


It's actually quite lame and childish.

If he has something to say about it, he should just do it. Otherwise, stfu.

As for now, that statement brings me to the conclusion that he is/was the problem, not DH. His comments (all of them basically) only add to that.

These passive-aggressive remarks are really off-putting, and becomes more so the longer he keeps it up without telling his side of the story. Either he should spell it out or keep quiet.

Not particularly but they're not rare either. I'd argue that twitter kind of stimulates stupidity... can't deny that it must be frustrating to have to convey something meaningful with 144 characters or whatever it is.

Twitter is what people make of it. So generally no, but it can be about the same cesspool like everywhere else. That's because certifiable assholes can be found literally everywhere.

Robert is not doing himself any favours by posting cryptic vituperations on twitter. DH addressed the issue in the article to my satisfaction, and if Robert wants to garner support, he should start by giving us a coherent and comprehensive account of what happened.

We still have no clue what happened. If Robert are right do you really expect Dreamhack to say that? And naturally if Robert feels he got screwed he's not an unbiased source of information. I'm kinda shocked there aren't any Swedish sites that provide with more information of the events, it's like esport journalism have one foot in the grave at this point.

Trouble is, he actually isn't saying that they're wrong. He doesn't say anything, he's just passive aggressive. There's literally nothing from his point of view/side at all apart from a tantrum.

But if you are getting screwed over, would it not behoove you to actually explain how and why it happened? Just posting random passive-aggressive stuff doesn't really clarify or refute anything.

Yall are all mad that he is being passive aggressive, but then when he says something you turn around and call it "unprofessional." Imagine how unprofessional the truth is. I imagine that's why it hasn't come out and why it might never come out.

as a general rule, people pick on things that don't uphold their own (taught/trained/educated) value systems.
- if someone was taught from an early age to value grammar, they'll lash out on everyone who doesn't.
- if someone was taught that how one presents itself to society is more important then what he does/did, then he will lash out on everyone who doesn't.
- and so on and so on ...
it's nothing personal here. it just happened for R.Ohlen to be on the wrong side of grammar/social etiquette.
people are so detached from other people, that abstract concepts and values end up having more weight, being more important then the person(s) in question.
And my fury stands ready. I bring all your plans to nought. My bleak heart beats steady. 'Tis you whom I have sought.

So basically, he's not telling us anything of substance, because the truth might be so embarassing he'd rather not tell? How is that any kind of exonerating circumstance?

If the only thing he can offer are the opaque references to DH's underhanded tactics or the even more cryptic outbursts, would not be better to just not say anything? If he had a better case or explanation that showed him to be the victim of a coup, I'm pretty sure he would have posted it immediately.

No, the passive agressiveness is precisely what is unprofessional. Either he has an agreement of some sort that prevents him from talking about what happened and then he should be totally silent, or he hasn't (most likely) and then nothing prevents him from actually saying his version of the events. Right now he's just trolling and trying to hurt DH, and it makes him look bad and unprofessional. (and tbh his behavior is more reminescent of someone that has been fired in a legit way and is angry as fuck about it than of someone who has been the victim of a plot)
