You can have problem at work, only for what you do... at work. | ||

To the members of this community that consider his comments fine, funny and ok - you need to wake up and get your ass back into the real world. Oh, and Idra calling someone a "faggot" is nowhere near the same planet as this. Idiots. | ||

User was warned for this post I like how you completely ignored the topic and decided to go on a tangent. I guess the best way to argue on a topic nowadays is to completely ignore it. Just ask Romney. Anyway in response to what you said: Here's the thing. The real reason why professional sports leagues are so successful is because athletes have personalities. Stop acting like the Korean way of esports is so perfect. If you hadn't noticed, that scene was dying way before SC2 came out. MSL is dead. KeSPA is losing power. LoL is on the verge of completely taking over. In professional leagues, you have the athletes you either hated or loved, either way it drew attention and gets people emotionally involved. If we simply have a bunch of robots playing, I guess it'd be fun in gameplay wise, but at some point, it will become repetitive. My point is we need the personalities. We need players like IdrA, Stephano, Seed, etc. They are the true reasons why people bother to watch SC2. eSports is more than just a competition of skill, it's personality. Why do you think IdrA and Stephano are the most well-known foreign players? Because they're the only ones that have any personality. Generic "My opponents have potential." "I hope I do well." "Thank you to my fans." might fly with you, but in order for eSports to become more mainstream, the players need to open the fuck up. | ||

So, public figures deserve the scrutiny and having their lives judged by random people because of the fact that they are public figures. Makes sense! | ||

In my fantasy land, people don't have six foot poles up their asses. Seriously though, he may have had the punishment coming, but I accept that because it reflects badly on EG, I think that making whatever jokes between is fine, and unfortunately Stephano just didn't realize Bling was streaming when he made the joke. Oops. He made a mistake, apologies were issued, punishment was dealt. Move on. | ||

Who's with me? Considering that his suspension ends by November, your movement is completely pointless. Not to mention the fact that the only reason why EG even suspended their best player was because SRS decided to be the internet police again. Nothing new, just another reason why I am losing faith in humanity. PS: Thanks xuanzue. | ||
