This thread is related to the harassment/abuse thread that was posted earlier last month.

shocking he was allowed in so many events for so long but better late than never.

was really annoying seeing avilo hold half of a bracket hostage by staying in lost games so long.

good job ESL.

Wasn't he already banned? I remember reading about a ban recently.

He won't be missed, in any case.

More and more drama reaching a tipping point it seems. Given the sensitivity of times lately, especially with the sexual harassment allegations coming to light in the esports scene, including incidents involving Avilo, it is safe to say that ESL is cutting ties before anything worse happens.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

I believe he was suspended for 2 weeks which ended yesterday maybe? I guess ESL suspended him for 2 weeks while going over everything and then decided to permanently ban him.

Amazing LOL the guy is just a whiny baby constantly spewing balance cries 24/7, great decision by event organizers. I don't know anything about the sexual harassment stuff but I know this guy doesn't deserve to participate in events, regardless of his "following"

"He would become angry when I would use other streamers emotes in our dm's."
How could she do that to him....??

Just FYI, this ban probably had nothing to do with his behavior in-game and all to do with his behavior out-of-game.

Avilo just posted a 41 page google doc eplaining his side and "clearing his name".

No way I will read this, but I guess he has the right to tell his story and maybe someone is interesed.

Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I read two pages and hes arguing this woman who he says was married divorced for him and then proceeded to cheat on him.

Not much more to read after that.

I may grab a bag of popcorn for this 41 page Avilo explanation, this has got to be good. I wish someone would read it / summarize it in a video in a humorous way instead. =P
