It is a form of self reassurence to have done the right thing, while at the same time not being able to let go completely. Wow! This is me, basically. Havent touched sc2 multiplayer for more than a year, Im not even watching, yet i still visit tl on a daily basis and read the starcraft content. GFOAT articles made me sad and nostalgic. | ||

I really liked sonic at first too until I went digging and sorta found out all his other scandulous stuff with like welch's and savior blah blah and all this sbenu related stuff that surfaced and I kinda took a step back and reevaluated this guy. ive been reading some book that talks briefly about some "halo effect" where you are likely to jump to conclusion about someone based on first impression and since the first impression with sonic was so good (savior of bw omg! donates to charity! runs tournament at own expense!) I guess a lot of us sorta jumped the gun and assumed he was a really nice guy. also i think its really wrong that hes saying the esports team will continue. where the fuck is the money coming from? and if he has money shouldnt he be paying back what he owes to all the factory workers he scammed? all the investors he scammed? | ||

Though I understand that there are digital divides between foreign scene and Korean scene. sometimes it makes me feel strange that some esports reps who get the worst reputations among Koreans are worshiped here. Since all we've really known him for was stepping in and running BW tournaments/sponsoring Starcraft without context, it all comes as quite a shock. I'm sure there are many people who don't want to give up thinking of him as a good thing for the game(s) they love. Edit: I'm clearly too slow at posting replies. xD | ||

I don't know, aren't his esports ventures his primary interests anyway? | ||
