I don't like to give my personal opinion at times as I generally get flamed for it. My opinion really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things as I'm not a sponsor and am in now way shape or form affiliated with your team.
However, you calling someone a douche on a public forum is questionable considering that it's specifically coming from an "aspiring" Pro gamer. But you know what IMO, some people really are actually down right douche bags and someone needs to tell them! haha. Just not sure if it's OK coming from you "if" your aiming for that Professional appreance, which is much more "attractive" to potential teams or sponsors in future.
I know if I had a snowballs chance of becoming a Pro gamer earning a decent salary, I'd just keep my mouth shut on public forums and simply type "gg wp" at the end of each game. Even if I know inside I'd love to smack the living s^*t out of my opponent for playing such an OP race. lols.
But hey, not everyone is the same.
Just want to add on to what tgun said. Most progamers if not all, choose their career because they are passionate about that game. And that is why a lot of them are so good. Its ok to hold in the anger sometimes but I believe its also good to let out emotions Also, I don't think its fair to say "If I was a progamer I would do this.." because lets face it, you're not a progamer.
After reading through 5 pages, all that I have learnt is that MarineKingPrime has a partnership with TTeSports. Time to get teh munnies out and buy meself a TTe keyboard.
My take on the situation and thread.
Just to be clear. I apologize should I say something that is either offensive or not in context. I have gone through all the pages and tried to understand as best as I could, but should I make a mistake please let me know.
"You can mold a mannerism, but must chisel a character"
We are all human. Just because we are manner in a game, doesn't mean we are a better person than the other. Tgun may have raged, but say someone needed his help, do you know if he'd help the person? What you are on the outside and what you are on the inside are totally different.
Take for example people like Meatex or SundeR. They may have gotten off on the wrong foot in this society, but look at who they truly are. Don't just look at how the vent their emotions into a loss or a win. Similarly in this situation, Tgun was just frustrated in one game and he was disrespectful. Does that make him a bad person?
No. He even went up to Iaguz to apologize and shake his hand. What more can you ask for? That is as good as it can get. It should not be up for discussion if what he did was wrong or not. We do not know how we would have felt in his situation. Stop trying to tell him how he should be. He is himself and no one else. We may have felt what he did was rude, but did Iaguz think that? The person who played him didn't give a shit and we want to blame him for that?
Tgun does not deserve praise nor punishment for what he did. He was given a situation, and that is how he reacted. Hopefully in the future he will be in a better mood and this won't occour.
In my honest opinion, this thread was over the minute we knew he apologized later. I honestly suggest a lock.
PS: Sorry again if I got my facts wrong or lacked clarity. Just let me know and I'll make sure to edit it.
EDIT: On a side note, forgot to congratulate you guys! GJ!
