This is false.
He actually was interviewed on some esports podcast a year or two ago and it was the first time that he went in depth on the topic since his initial apology. I just can't remember the name of the channel for the life of me. Hopefully someone else does.
Even without that context though, as someone that has followed his streams since even before that incident, he has clearly shown growth. He definitely still has problematic aspects, but he also is quick to verbally shut down a lot of people that try to be funny with their wack jokes in the chat and through his donations. I honestly think a lot of those weird mother fuckers just get off on him roasting them for their shitty behavior.
I'm not gonna say that anyone must forgive him for that incident. That's your own prerogative. But I will say that claiming that he never apologized, or that he never learned from his mistakes and improved his behavior is simply false.
Aris was doing homophobic jokes about me on his stream earlier this year, at a time when I was considering coming out as trans. It really wasn't cool.
Oftentimes victims of abuse pay that abuse forward instead of processing it in a healthy way. in her tweets gllty said she's been a victim in the past, so maybe that's at play here. That's pure speculation, mind you. But yeah in a scene that's like 99% men it's no surprise that most predators are men (and men are of course statistically more likely to be sex pests).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.
That's true, I think there will be a larger move to E-sports the scene up though once actual money is involved.The same Riot where 150 employees walked out in protest over workplace harassment? They'll be the shining pillar of the FGC?
I know a ton of FGC forgave him for the SFxT stuff but eveytime I'd hear him since it was always borderline. Doesn't surprise me he's garbage. I'm glad you're out there being you, 16 Bit.

Saying "Don't defend my actions, I confess to doing all of this and acknowledge they are shitty" to fans who might want to come to her defense (as fans are prone to do) and "I'm gonna exit the scene" are about as good a response as you can hope for for a public outing that finally seems to be getting some traction, assuming she goes through with it all. She might've been doing it for a long time but now that it seems to be blowing up, this is about as decent a response as we can expect from a shitty situation like this. She doesn't shift the blame, doesn't try to downplay what she has done, doesn't go all "sorry if you were offended" or "I was just messing around, Y U all so serious?"Lol.
Oh wait, you're serious ? Because a lot of people have been talking about Gllty behavior for years now. I don't believer her "apologies" at all. Lifetime ban for her is all i want.
She was born not relevant to the topic at hand

I can't find anything about this. Got any links?the misogynistic FGC Old Head group chat that got aired out in public this week
God that would suck. The grassroots feel of the FGC is why I love it so much.That's true, I think there will be a larger move to E-sports the scene up though once actual money is involved.

I think the reasoning is probably that the predatory behaviour is harming the players and the integrity of the tournament in question as it's where the predators operate, whereas the abusers operate outside the confines of the tournament. At least that's how it sort of makes sense? I am all for banning domestic abusers but I have an honest question here - where do you draw the line between a bannable offense and something that is not grounds for a ban?Not surprised given all the rumors and talks about her behavior. But also, WHY THE FUCK WAS INFILTRATION ALLOWED BACK?
All of these creeps need to be perma banned from all of these events.
Thanks. So the term to search for was "old man fgc chat".I guess that JusDoIt is referring to the Chris T and brenttiscool Twitter stuff.
I saw it on this site earlier this week.

Put and keep Arslan Ash in the spotlight. He's the hero we need.
I legit was unaware but appreciate folks following up.Yes he did. Unfortunately people aren't allowed to change by resetera rules.
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)

It's cool that you want to apologize and all, but it's highly unlikely the women you got too handsy with and touched inappropriately are going to be browsing this forum or even know who you are. It would mean more if you apologized to the actual people you wronged, not just a broad apology to strangers on Era.The dark side of gaming.
The dark side of humanity.
I hope the victims can find the strength to continue to live on peacefully and the perpetrators to stop their shit and learn from their mistakes immensely.
Personally I have done minor stupid shit when tipsy in the club and only next few days have I heard what kind of impact that can have.
So I apologise to all the women whose booty I touched or when I have been too handsy.
Some women don't mind the attention, some hate it and some don't like it at all but are afraid to speak up. So I am sorry! ❤
As a bonus ran into some related (in that it's misogynistic, and racist) 2017 asshattery from Chris G as well:
Like I said earlier before his shooters piled on me. First he doubled down and only buckled because of the pressure. His stream kinda blew up so he's gotta keep a facade but I'm definitely not giving dude the benefit of the doubt.Aris was doing homophobic jokes about me on his stream earlier this year, at a time when I was considering coming out as trans.

lol like I haven't done that as well? Well I have. I am just apologizing in the general sense and also telling anyone who might be interested to hear that I was completely oblivious of the fact my behaviour was inappropiate. I was ignorant and young(er).It's cool that you want to apologize and all, but it's highly unlikely the women you got too handsy with and touched inappropriately are going to be browsing this forum or even know who you are.

I don't follow this scene at all but every now and then controversies similar to this seem to sprout up and it's shameful to see people defending or dismissing things that are either outright admitted, recorded on camera, or reported by multiple accounts.
None of the things these players have been accused of are defensible in any form.
To me, gllty's apology seems genuine enough and I hope she's able to better herself from this moment onward, but just like she said and I paraphrase: if you are defending her (or any of the other people who acted in a similar, or worse, manner) you should question yourself as to why.

They will likely shuffle the to the next runner up, which would be Emezie.Street Fighter League should replace Gllty with Mahreen. She's great.

Unfortunately it's impossible to tell if someone who knows how to make a good apology is actually remorseful or just a sociopath a few steps ahead of the othersNobody is defending Gllty, nor is it likely that they will. Gllty has long been known for her bad behaviour in the FGC. She also has a habit of apologising and then immediately doubling down on the same behaviour.

Does he have time to do that between crotch punching animations?
Hell, there's people still defending her in the stlfgc. Yeah, she definitely has a base that still supports her despite admitting what she did.People were defending her on twitter, which is why she said that
Yeah, I've noticed he still makes gross homophobic jokes and always tries to push the limits of what he can get away with, which I've never been comfortable with.Aris was doing homophobic jokes about me on his stream earlier this year, at a time when I was considering coming out as trans.

Yeah, I saw some of that live as it happened. Any time anyone does or says something in an even remotely awkward way, he definitely goes way too hard. Sometimes people are cool with it and go along with the joke, like the Fergus handshake thing.
The jabs at you were definitely more aggressive though. That whole "bodying each other in bed" thing became a dumb chat meme for a while.
Shit was wack as fuck and not cool.
