Echoing earlier post.

While I kinda agree with some of the points you raised in your blog re: this. Basically, that the community is starting to get a grip on the power it has and people are certainly jumping on certain bandwagons with regards to TL/Reddit posts convincing idiots to email sponsors out thinking.

But that is the role of the community. If the community doesn't want people like IdrA (or rather, people to act like IdrA has done) then it's their responsibility to communicate that. Admittedly, the community seems to kind of miss the step where it's far better for esports in general if they sent those angry emails to the team first... giving EG a chance to react before the entire organisation's name is tainted to the sponsors can only be a good thing, even if it ends up in the same place.
