What's with the fourth's clothes ruling?

Has there been a case of cheating with that kind?

I think it's the right thing to do. I really never liked ceremonies, I watch games because I love the game, not the player doing the monkey, and if it's something offensive to the opponnent I really don't like it. I respect progamers a lot, and I always thought they did too, whenever I see a progamer doing something unrespectful to their opponent that person lose all my respect.

I cant tell if they mean offensive to the general public or offensive to the other player. None of firebathero's ceremonies would be considered offensive from a public standpoint (except maybe the shirtless one).

imo, this will effect viewer ratings... people like FBH draw in crowds because of his retarded ceremonies, like it or not, it pretty much helps the industry.

and how are kespa referees gonna judge whats BM, and what is not? seriously.. I cant wait to read the guidelines for this.

"thrusting your crotch towards the audience while shaking your arms up and down is BM"

Still no doping controls? Or at least formally banning them?

It says offensive, not BM. Pretty sure FBH never insulted anyone's religion or political alignment with those crotch thrusts, so it's not like he's going to be shut down.

No.
If you owned and rented out an apartment, and you said "No dogs allowed", they couldn't bring dogs.

Just the same, its Kespa's thing. If they say "No politics etc...", yeah, no politics.

No politics is a typical asian thing. In asia they don't understand democracy like they do in the west. The west forced it on them or they don't have it at all. For them politics is something for only politicians to be concerned about.

Indeed, they might as well just give up and cede to North Korea, DAMN REDS! WHY!?

On other news: I think FBH will still dance, maybe he has to take the humping out or something? I sure hope he does.
