Seriously? I can't believe in this day and age that people would get so worked up about something someone said on the internet. Especially something like that. Should he probably keep that kind of stuff to himself to help with his own professional image and team's image? Definitely, but I don't see how it's any different than any other stupid bull shit that's been happening on the internet since it's inception. | ||

However, the only fault of Cloud is to express his opinion under the tag of his team. | ||

Anyways I don't live in Europe so who knows he could be right about gypsies ... so if you've never met a particular ethnicity of humans, but someone tells you we should kill them all indiscriminately, you'd believe him? | ||

But we all know that this won't happen.. cloud lives with the teammanager in same house ^^ cloud has a big .... temperament. you should not take him to serious ... well theres a reason such things should stay out of esport forums.... all kinds of persons play sc2 also some that feels rly different then others and such aereas about politic etc should not be in the same forum then esports stuff | ||

You can agree/disagree with him in that particular topic, but making a topic about it is just lame. | ||

Clouds comments are bollocks. Ironic how he scoffs at people bringing out the 'nazi card' when he says above that the 'solution' is to kill as many as you can. He could claim that was a (really awful?) joke, but combined with the 'plague on humanity' stuff it starts to look like straight up racism. | ||

You should not start a crusade against him like this. However, the only fault of Cloud is to express his opinion under the tag of his team. of course he gets bad image. I really hope so - if he's making that kind of racist comments at least I hope he looses lots of his fans. On TL he only got a 2 day ban so that won't effect him at all This should made public (e.g. this thread) so that people know who Cloud really is | ||

You are making a thread to get him banned from all tournaments ? Really ? What I meant with that is that I have my own political opinions and might express them in discussions on TL, but I don't want to generally politicize eSports. But should players be allowed to publicly state blatently racist things? In EVERY other sport that would not be tolerated for one minute by a professional team, but hey, this is the internet, so what right? So of course this does matter, so long as eSports matter. | ||

That thing happens all day every day in my hometown and I know what it looks like. I won't give that much of a detailed comment on the issue itself, but what cloud says is damn true. There might be some issues with his wording of choice, but what he says is true. They literally make a living off criminal act. | ||
