This is my problem with peoples perspective on progamers: you're basically expecting them to show no emotion at all. It's ******* ridiculous. If someone is going to try and call me out for absolutely no reason (like in this thread), you're basically expecting that person to sit there and cop it on the chin; for what reason? Because I'm better than the average person? Because I want to, one day, be playing at an international level?
It makes no sense. Sure, public decorum, blah, blah, blah. I don't understand how people could possibly look at someone responding to being called out and think "You know what, **** this guy and his sponsors. I'm never going to buy x product again". That's absolutely ridiculous.
Hey man, you know what.... as much as I agree with you. That is just how it is and there isn't anything you can do about it. As harsh as it may sounds, it's just how it is.
At the end of the day (speaking from my own perspective if I were a Pro-gamer), I'd just sit back and laugh knowing you are getting paid to do the exact same thing someone else is doing for leisure. The moment you get on the forum and retaliate at the hate is the moment you open yourself up for shit such as this. If you like the drama, well each to their own I guess... but imo "I" just don't think it's the better decision considering you are an "aspiring" Pro-gamer.
As I said before, not everyone is the same though.
