A statement from iov leaders:
First off, I would like to thank Team Liquid for allowing us to give this statement. I want to make sure the SC2 community knows that eGGy is no longer apart of the Icons of Vanity organization. We are just getting into the SC2 scene and wanted some kind of exposure about the merge that what going on. A post was going to be made by me or Jordan the SC2 manager but eGGy went on and decided to do it himself without anyones approval. I can't say much more but hope that this will be forgotten. Thank you TL once again, Samuel Portillo, CEO of Icons of Vanity
---------------
I just wanted to address the current issues with this announcement for Icons of Vanity. First off, I want to deeply apologize to the community for Eggy’s words and actions. He did something without my permission and also disgraced the division of StarCraft which I run. I just want to make sure the community knows that he is no longer within our organization. I also want to thank the ones in the community that has given us their support and I hope we will not disappoint you guys! Thank you for taking your time to reading this, Jordan ‘WakanakaTaka’ Tang.
P.S. I’m not exoticA

Note About the troll on the thread:
+ Show Spoiler +
Axellerate and Consumer13 are the same person.
Axellerate has a vendetta after me because I embarrassed him in real life(we were friends for 6 years)
I asked him multiple times to talk to me in person rather than hiding behind a keyboard and he fails to do so.
So he resorts to making ridiculous post like that, and posting private messages between me and him so he can
feel better about him self.
Im sorry the drama had to come to this thread, but he brought it upon himself.
I am tired of being harassed for 7 months by this person whenever i log onto BNET or anywhere else.
Please ignore this person, he is just trying really hard to make me sound like a bad person.
Im sure everyone would be pissed if they had there own personal RatZDeezer that followed them everywhere.
