@Yoon I partly disagree with you with regards to forgiving him. In this case I definitely think there was some malice involved when he tried to pull a fast one on the community, trying to screw people for self promotion and monetary gain. Sad to say trying to pull some strings to make things favor you/your team, is quite common in the Philippines. Since no one ever complains, as evidenced by team cube's statement (they were even having 2nd thoughts on exposing what happened).
I think the community should be able to for give to some extent, like accept him as a normal community member; but i think it will be hard for anyone to accept him as a tournament organizer or as a figure in the community (being a team owner/manger).
I think paying you 1600 is not enough for what has happened, there are way way more people screwed/inconvenienced/scammed/cheated leading to this. That I think having him as a community figure, will just make our eSports scene less respectable.
Paying me 1600 is by far not enough. I accepted a delayed compensation so he would have time to fix the other mistakes that he has caused. I believe that everyone should be forgiven. I don't believe anything should be forgotten, but earned as mentioned earlier. Those who know me well personally know I am very ruthless against who I consider my enemies, but I always believe in chances. This is because I and I am sure you yourself has been given chances But I very much appreciate your feedback and support.
