The Korean Starcraft II and Warcraft III clan WeRRa will disband following allegations from one of its underage members that he was sexually molested by the clan leader and manager. 즐겨찢기/LoveRip posted a detailed account on the Korean SC II website PlayXP, followed by the departure of several prominent members of the WeRRa clan.

The vice-clan master, CellaWerra soon made it official that at least the Starcraft II portion of the clan was to disband, with its former members to seek membership in other SC II teams or clans. He neither confirmed nor denied the incident. No charges that we know of have been filed as of yet, nor has GundamWerra, the accused ex-manager, made a statement.

Update:
CellaWeRRa has announced that the WeRRa clan will disband. The following is a translation of his post on PlayXP.

The clan was de facto disbanded, and now it's official.

In our Warcraft division, HeadWerra and Haha Hyung are organizing the remaining members. They are considering making a new non-competitive clan, or continuing the WeRRa tradition as a smaller, more streamlined clan. They've spent so much time in WeRRa, so thinking about having to start anew with something else.... It would be hard to adjust, so they're thinking hard about it.

I didn't demand the truth from Gundam when I met him today. I told him to follow his conscience and apologize if he did anything wrong... and I told him all of the responsibility lies with him, so he should try his best to make things right. Then I told him not to hate his messed up life, and to care for himself... without getting any stupid ideas.

Like he should have cared for other people too.
Right now, the Stacraft II members of the clan have mostly left, and put in applications to other teams or clans. Vestige is preparing a new clan for the guys who don't really know what to do at the moment. I hope the ones going to new places can adjust well.

Alongside them, I'm wandering without a home. I have no idea what to do.
I apologize for writing some personal stuff in an official notice.
This was CellaWerra, vice clan master of WeRRA, teary eyed and signing off.
For all our faults, thank you for the interest you had in Starcraft II Werra.

Original Post

I know the other threads were closed, and i hope i'm not stepping out of line. I'm not sure what the mods meant by "real story", and i had the translations done, so I thought I might as well post this. mods please close the thread if necessary, and my apologies beforehand if it is.

For those of you who haven't heard, it seems as though members of the WeRRa clan are leaving the clan. 10 members, including 즐겨찢기.WeRRa, AugustWeRRa, and RainWeRRa have left the clan as of 10:28PM KST of Saturday the 23rd. Apparently, GundamWeRRa molested 즐겨찢기.WeRRa at his house, which lead to 즐겨찢기WeRRa (aka LoveRipWeRRa) leaving the clan, which, in turn, lead to the others leaving. LoveRipWeRRa (즐겨찢기WeRRa) put up a post on PlayXp.com describing the incident. It's possible none of this is true and the hundreds of blog posts that have come up since the incident are lying, but this doesn't seem likely.

You can find the original Korean here: http://www.playxp.com/sc2/bbs/view.php?article_id=2226980&search=3&search_pos=&q

isclaimer* I am only translating the post originally posted by 즐겨찢기.WeRRa on PlayXP. Not sure if there's an official story out yet, and I couldn't find any story from Gundam's point of view. I am not implying it is true or false. I take responsibility only for translating a pre-existing post. That aside, the translation is as legit as it can possibly get.

One last thing to mention is that the original post in Korean, in itself, is somewhat incoherent and full of (minor) grammatical mistakes, but I don't think it's too big of an issue..

here's the money translation:


Hi.
This was being talked about for a little while

"GundamWeRRa" is the reason why I left the WeRRa clan.
As you already know, GundamWeRRa is the leader and coach of the WeRRa clan.
He is also the one who scouted me for the clan.
mod edit: this is not the BW progamer V-Gundam, in case people are wondering!

The incident started on Friday, October 22.
It was the day of PhoenixWeRRa's GSL game.
I got a call from Gundam.
He suggested we go root for Phoenix, then go to his house afterward where he could help me practice.
After watching up to the 4th GSL matchup on Friday, we took the subway to Gundam's house.
On the way to his house, he asked me for my trust and confidence, telling me how he brought up Chae-Ho Chang (Moon), Jun Park (Lyn) Ensnare, Zenio, etc, etc.
It was a bit odd..

We arrived at Gundam's house.
His mother was there, he and I went to his room.
He made light contact with me, putting his head on my lap and his arm around my shoulders.
It wass a little gross, and I started getting a little suspicious..

I tried to leave the room in order to change my clothes,
but he demanded that I change in his room. That's when I got the feeling:
"I'd better not sleep [tonight]"

So I played [SC2] until the morning (you can see this if you look at the match history of "즐겨찢기").
When morning came, Gundam woke up and suggested that I lie down and rest if I was tired.
I lied down and dozed off.
I got a strange feeling, and woke up to find Gundam pulling down my fly.

Shocked, I asked him, "what are you doing?"
He answered, "Your fly was open, and I was afraid you would think I had opened it. So I was trying to zip it back up. Go back to sleep."
So I lied back down for about 10 minutes, then asked him if he was gay.

He insisted it was a misunderstanding; he said his work was in meeting (and probably negotiating) with other people, so he definitely wasn't.

I believed him....

But when I put the mouse cursor on the Gom player to watch some vods,
the playlist contained videos related to homosexuality. So I asked Gundam for us to leave.
When we were outside, I asked him in tears:
Why did you scout me? Didn't you scout me into the team because you saw a future in me?

He said yes, but I had already lost trust in him.
He also told me that he was not gay, but bi.

I cried in the taxi, and I cried when I got home.

Even now, I feel like crying thinking about it.
I'm only 15, and I even dropped out of high school to join the team.
I am writing this because cannot stand the feeling of betrayal.
My apologies to other members of WeRRa who had nothing to do with this.

Please do not contact me any more.
Goodbye.

Protip: put in a summary at the top, at the very least. And make the thread title something like "WeRRa member leaves clan" or whatever it is that your post is about.

wow this is sad.
dunno who he is, but was he any good? perhaps he's just under the shock of the experience, perhaps he was actually scouted for his skill but gundam developed more than interest in his skill

So, did the other weRRa team mates leave because of this? how old is Gundam? I appropriate your posts btw. Even if this thread gets locked don't look down on yourself for getting the thread locked. Many many people appreciate it.

From what I know, LoveRipWeRRa (the other werra.. finally found out his english name) is 15 years old (a minor), and GundamWeRRa is definitely way older. At the least, he is not a minor.

There actually is a good chance this is going to be in the evening news here tonight.

fucking hell, man this translation makes it break my heart.. I just knew for a fact that the first translation was a little messed up due to the wording but this shows that the situation is fucked up....

I really feel sorry for him, I hope the team gets their shit together and find a new manager.
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

is it not possible for him to re-enter high school once he puts this past him? probably are some really difficult hoops to jump through though since it is Korea.... well any way you slice it, dropping out of high school to do progaming is not a wise move in itself.

@ICanFlyLow I feel like that is out of line. The big issue here is NOT gundamwerra's sexuality, whether he is G/B/T/Q/Confused whatever. What is wrong here is the fact that he allegedly molested a minor.

@251 I totally agree with you. There are ways, from what I am aware, though. If he can't get into another high school (although he should be able to, unless i'm mistaken), there are 대안학교 and 검정고시, which are basically independent high schools and exams that give you credit for graduation, respectively, but neither option is any better than graduating an actual high school.


all in all, assuming his accusations are truthful, man it's gotta suck to be in LoveRipWeRRa's position right now.

This is really terrible. Does anyone know whether other werra clan members were also affected by this?

If it is, can you give us a summary? This whole thing seems so messed up. Also, are there any posts by werra members on this issue (outside of TL that is)?

I agree with what you said... but I'm confused about Q...

G=gay
B=bi
T=tran
Q=?

I really hope this does not lead to any rash rash decisions by the parties affected. This was a big blow to many peoples reputations, there families, and most importantly their honor. I hoped that this was just a misunderstanding, but no, this seems too real, and quite disgusting. the players that were not directly affected will probably move on and do great things with other teams, but I feel they will always have a sinking feeling when they think about WeRRa. What gundam did sickens me, and although for moralities sake I would not wish for him to pull an hero. But I've seen this happen quite often when this particular orientation is discovered in korean culture, and when it's brought out with such a disgusting act I kinda see it happening. I really hope LoveRipWeRRa moves on past this like his teammates inevitably will, but I dont see this ever escaping gundam's future life.

Wow... poor kid.

Really makes you feel for him, this translation of all others. Oh my gosh, he invested so much into Sc2. He even dropped high school to fully practice. And then he finds out its possible he was just recruited because the manager was gay.

This is just horrible. I hope another team comes up and picks him for their team, even if he isn't on par. I mean, what's going to happen to him?

Also, august werra leaving. Wow
