I was actually shaking my head at most of the posts in that thread. I had to stop doing that because my neck hurts now. The discussion seems to be calming down slightly though at the moment. I am glad that the mods keep the thread open. It's really important that we are able to discuss issues like sexism and racism. That's a true sign of a mature and sensible community and shuts the critics of the gamer community right the hell up.
I think the mods closed that thread for an hour so they can reduce their backlog of people to ban. It's hard to keep up with it. It's also amusing that many of the regulars in this thread can't comment on this ban trap right now.
Oh Jesus....Destiny and Incontrol are both mixing it up in there....all it needs now is an IdrA one-liner to be the bantrap pros trifecta!
Although reading back through that conversation, Intrigue was being pretty douchey too. At best he was flamebaiting Destiny. Anytime anyone with a red name posts "how stupid is this community", it's going to get a pretty strong reaction.
EDIT: Good God it's out of control...I'm actually F5'ing the ban thread right now.
It's like that bucket-on-an-inferno picture kennigit(?) used as a ban reason a while ago.
Ah that Destiny thread is simply Destiny taunting the outraged forum-goers, as they grow angrier, Destiny begins to taunt them even more intensely, thus creating a cycle of rage that grows through feedback. As the forum-goers become mad with rage, they threaten to burn down everything around them, just so that they can take Destiny down. Meanwhile, Incontrol tries largely in vain to tell the crowd to stop burning everything, but to largely no avail. All the while, Destiny continues to taunt and troll the out-raged forum-goers.
People who are uneducated about Destiny's stream/behavior on a daily basis are now suddenly raising pitchforks? What is most surprising is, this isn't even front page on SC Reddit....honestly that thread should just get closed. Making more problems than it could ever hope to solve.

;D i thought everyone knew how destinys stream went too. watch it if you like that kind of thing, avoid if you dont. but apparently we are doing this all over again
uh god... It's when threads like the Destiny one pop up that this thread seems like the only place unaffected by the storm, like a VIP booth overlooking the scene. I just hope that the infestation doesn't start to seep in here.
I blame all this Destiny drama to the fact that TLers didn't have their healthy dose of girl blog drama in the past few months. Severe lack of girl blogs is hurting ESPORTS TL.
Also, an amusing afternoon as Synwave said:

Might I refer you to this fine TLer if you want some girl blog fix. I don't know if they are good blogs, as I dont know how one judges them positively or negatively but here you go! Girl blogger I have to run for a bit but I hope to see many more bans of hilarity on my return. I won't even go into that thread, Im just watching the apocalypse from here

Its very hard to judge girl blogs. Usally the more effort into a girl blog the worse imo.
