Thank you. I googled it for a second myself but I still wasn't sure how it was being used there. Not sure why not knowing caused a stir.Henny is slang for Hennessy, a brand of cognac.
Tampa Bison is implying people are getting "drunk" off all this MeToo stuff, seemingly implying it's a bad thing that it's happening at all.
(Don't worry I had to look that up too I had no idea what the fuck it meant)
I think it says you have your expectations in check.What does it say about me that I always assume the assaulter is a man, especially in a gaming context?
When we hear about toxicity in gaming it's almost always men who are the perpetrators of that behavior. I'm always surprised to hear about women acting that way, especially towards other women considering that everyone knows how much shit women get from gamers.
It's wild that everybody decided to show their asses in the same week. I had to unfollow somebody last night because they were liking #istandwithvic shit.
MFers buggin.
I thought that most of the accusations against Infiltration were false. I read that his ex-wife did most of the stuff to ruin him and his career because he said that he wanted to divorce her.
And that the only thing that was true was that he indeed did bruise on of her wrist.
I am confused now. But one thing for sure, it isn't as worst as some of the stuff that came out at first.
Anyway, a number of tournaments have banned Gllty in response to the accusations:
These tournaments and a couple other have also banned Chris Bahn as well. Wouldn't be surprised if similar bans fly for Floe.
I mentioned earlier that it's likely a case of other victims gaining courage once the ball got rolling.It's wild that everybody decided to show their asses in the same week. I had to unfollow somebody last night because they were liking #istandwithvic shit.

Also, the FGC seem still small enough and grassroots enough compared to other mainstream gaming communities for changes to happen within the community sooner than later.
He apologized to her personally from what I was told. I am close friends with some of her peeps and that's what they told me. No idea if he said it on YouTube or Facebook at the time as well.it still fucking blows my mind how much this guy still pops up and how much people still work with him. did he ever even apologize?
To be blunt, there are people not realizing their own conduct is toxic and problematic. The way the other person handled it(not assuming the worst and giving benefit of doubt) is the way to go imo if we all want to head towards a less volatile and stable and positive direction.Thank you. I googled it for a second myself but I still wasn't sure how it was being used there. Not sure why not knowing caused a stir.
Anyway, the plus side of all this is that people showing their asses makes it easier to ostracize them.
How does that say most of the allegations were false?
Holy shit that's the guy from The Next Level O_o
I hope they don't let themselves be too influenced by their friendship with floe. Hell on the show last week where they talked about Infiltration they mentioned being disappointed in not being able to see Floe at that very EVO.Was aware of the Gllty stuff but not Floe's. Oh damn.
Hopefully UltraChen will have the same stance on this as they had regarding Infiltration at Evo.
Also good to see ComboBreaker's swift response.
Well, when the rumors first came out.. Didn't the forums said that he choked her and beat her or something? None of that is in the document...
Crazy how someone can post a convo like that but have mostly nude NSFW anime girl as his twitter banner. That was a quick close while at work. You should warn people before linking.

That must be a kick in the pants.
Did Aris ever say anything about his use of the ni**a/ni**er in his pass youtube videos?Not really. He's become more of a streamer than a commentator in recent years, so he's more isolated than before, but it's still the same dude who never took responsibility for his harassment.
They're still fighting game fans though - most of their focus is on FGs and FGC topics. THey've had AMAs with Mike Ross and other FGC figures. Their opinions do reflect on the FGC at large, for better or worse.

edit: whew this stream was choppy, probably only watchable as background noise
Kinda expected, a lot of stuff are still developing and you want to wait before talking about it. Gillty is also a very close friend of Ultra David and he did stood up by her in the past(on way less heinous acts, of course), probably need time to gather thoughts but there's no avoiding this topic.UltraDavid just said they aren't doing a show today because James is flying to Germany for a tournament.
LTG literally started as a sensationalist youtuber. You can blame fighting games to spawn him as much as you can blame shit tier journalism and TV - or even youtube itself.What do people expect from the community that spawned DSP and Low Tier God? There's a toxic culture around it.
I think you have an extra unrelated quote there lolThank y'all!
That text conversation is frustrating to read, not only because it's gross, but because it kind of reminds me of conversations I've had with someone I know about the FGC. I try to point out these issues as examples of a problematic environment and it's almost always met with "not everybody" and "it's always gonna happen"
What a week for the FGC, holy crap
LTG was barely part of any fgc. He went to Wednesday Night Fights a few times and got ridiculed. DSP left like 10 yeards ago.What do people expect from the community that spawned DSP and Low Tier God? There's a toxic culture around it.
Are you equating legal representation to an admission of guilt?
Both these guys are regarded as obnoxious by the FGC.What do people expect from the community that spawned DSP and Low Tier God? There's a toxic culture around it.
As much as people still call him an ass because of his streamer persona or how toxic his community is, As someone who knows him in real life, Aris attitude has changed significantly since back then. He is a different person and it angers me people continue to bring this up. Yes what he did was really shitty and I am not excusing it. But as she has forgiven him and came to his defense multiple times I think people need to stop making character judgement based off of something that happened years ago. People change. That will be my only comment on this, as I shouldn't speak for him other than that.
Anyways, All this stuff happening today in the FGC with harassment is saddening.
That's not what the document says - I can only read the first page but it says they can't reveal what the documents are because of legality in Korea - it notes that both a 15 min recording of an altercation did happen on the 22 Oct 17 and that a medical examination was logged due to those events, the police arrested him and a tempory restraining order was granted. This does not deny the alegations. I'll point out that in South Korea the law for domestic abuse is bias against the victims and abusers can sue for defamation of character if people reveal (even the abuse victim) what they did. The fact he was prosecuted sucessfulkly is telling. And Panda Global have legal reasons not to reveal the full extent of what happened, and they don't seem to deny the original allegation eitherWell, when the rumors first came out.. Didn't the forums said that he choked her and beat her or something? None of that is in the document...
And let make this perfectly clear, I am not saying he is innocent or defending his actions.. But what I am trying to say is.. It is not as bad as the first allegations were..
There were some very large exaggerations added to the original material when it got put out on the web initially that were debunked by the full report. The type of stuff that would have been a instaban for life no questions asked if it were accurate.
It's time for the FGC to start unifying this so stuff like Infiltration at EVO and those players showing up in other scenes, playing other games or at newer tournaments, etc... Isn't an issue going forward.
What a week for the FGC, holy crap
The only positive thing I've seen is that "official" aka tournament and team organisers are much better at responding now.

I thought LTG was prominent enough he was chosen to be in a reality TV series about Street fighter tournaments?LTG literally started as a sensationalist youtuber. You can blame fighting games to spawn him as much as you can blame shit tier journalism and TV - or even youtube itself.

iirc he wasn't prominent in the fgc but the tv series picked him up anyway for controversyI thought LTG was prominent enough he was chosen to be in a reality TV series about Street fighter tournaments?

He's an edgy persona with a Youtube channel and they made a reality TV show, that's why.I thought LTG was prominent enough he was chosen to be in a reality TV series about Street fighter tournaments?
Gllty is pronounced "guilty." As in, guilty of a crime.Dumb question but what does gllty means? People saya that is an innapropriate name considering the acussations against her but I dont understand the play of words
