Better hope no 14 years old comes forward because he already admitted it if someone accuses him... Hahaha, yeah, he's definitely going to prison.

Well that's a good start for Stephano's career at EG, isn't it.
|
EG are so hypocritical. Idra has been rude to everyone since the beginning of time, and Stephano makes only few "wrong" doings, yet only Steph gets punished...
|
the only thing i can say is wth man
i mean this is ridiculous and i cant see how its funny, i mean it seemed like he was simply going for shock value and this is completely ridiculous. maybe i dont get it since im from a different culture thanhim but this just seems stupid pointless and there was no reason for him to do it in the first place.

Yeah I hate it when a community gets so mainstream that making jokes about rape and racism are seen as wrong. Come on folks IRL people don't care about this stuff its not like peoples lives have been impacted by this stuff. Next thing you know people will tell me Holocaust jokes aren't funny...
+ Show Spoiler +For the one kid that will think I am serious, I am being overly sarcastic

It is :D Because everybody is making a big deal about it. EG is getting publicity like hell atm..
Srsly? Is Idra known for good Publicity? No Was Stephano ever known for good Publicity? No
This kid should just grow up. He wanted to study medicin. He behaves like an 8 year old boy holy crap. God bless him for his sc2 talent i dont wanna have a doctor like him.
Still hoping that Stephano grews up with EG -.-

Esports is the real deal now.. suspending players and shit..
amazing !
|
who cares what the age consent in that location was it's wrong to bang a 14yr old, if i go to a lawless shit hole like sudan and fuck a 10yr old is it ok because they have no age of consent there, fuck no it isn't ok, this thread makes me sick and so does the EG team a one month suspension is nothing, never watching there streams again or buying a any products associated with them.
|
This is fucking ridiculous EG.. Stephano was obviously joking..

Well I for one look forward to the society where we always walk on our tiptoes because people give words more power than they need to.
I guess we could call them a bunch of nazis but that would be too ironic.

Wow so is he really a child predator or was he joking?

Is it right to give a longer leash when it goes against the very morals you preach as an organization? Has Stephano earned the right to belittle the community and act completely irresponsible and unprofessional? And more importantly is this someone we want as a face of the community as we try to bring esports into the mainstream?
1) Alex Garfield definitely needed to be put in a difficult spot so as to limit future smug emmissions. He was so self righteous about Orb it made me sick and I'm glad he had to compromise his previously espoused values, even if just a little.
2) Not only did Stephano belittle the entire community, you personally, and your mother... wait... no... Not only did he make a joke far tamer than anything on Family Guy or South Park, like he FREQUENTLY does... wait... can you repeat the question? I'm not following where you are going with this...
3) Yes. He is hilarious, talented, intelligent, and good looking.
Now If only he were two or three years younger....

Good on EG for suspending him...It might discourage others from showing that kind of behavior in the future...I mean, the community is so diverse, rules like this have to be enforced...

Ok, Stephano made a bad joke, but that doesn't mean that what Idra's constantly doing is any better

Honestly, EG is damned if they do, damned if they don't. There's just no good way out for them. Blame Stephano for starting the whole thing.

dude you really think Stephano cares about that? He doesnt Bro....
Hes earning 8k a month.... Thats probably twice the amount of an average income of an US civil. he doesnt even have to pay anything so .. who cares?
You are hyping this suspension dude xD Its nothing .. Go to your chef and say "I abused a 14". I swear by god. You will hav much more time for sc2 after this comment.
EG should maybe overthink their obv. philosophy.
Hunting former champs and badasses seems to work moneywhise but ... Team Liquid seems to work to even with less results

Better hope no 14 years old comes forward because he already admitted it if someone accuses him... Only if he actually did anything against the law. You need to realize that he said "I abused a 14 yo", not "I had sex with an underage girl". Aside from that he just SAID it, he didn't necessarily do it. I think it's unreasonable to punish someone for saying something that is not hateful or abusive to anyone else, and is unsubstantiated, especially when said under the expectation of privacy. Plenty of cases in real life where comments such this has led to at least an formal investigation by the police; A few years ago in Sweden a local politician was investigated, charged and found guilty after he had confessed privately to a friend via SMS; "I've just had a 'fun time' with a 15 year old".
Now, granted they only used the SMS as reason for starting the investigation and that they only actually continued with a formal prosecution once they got more evidence, its still pretty dumb to make comments like this, in any form or context. If nothing else you avoid the risk of being investigated by the police, and even if your innocent and didn't do anything I still believe you rather not be under investigation at all.

So whats the cut off point? If rape and racism are ok whats off the table? I am not saying we police everything but hey what if we policed our own mind and mouth O.o wait that would be maturity and people just want to be able to "be themselves" and always make excuses instead of actually taking responsibility for their actions.
What the time old saying? Something along the lines if you don't want people to know about something don't do it or say it.
