I've seen Destiny's BM and racial slurs before, and In general, I don't really care about it.

I thought his explanations were very silly and like a young kid just spouting a kind of quasi-philosophical rebelious thing "To me this word means this, and I'll say it because I mean it how I mean it and words shouldn't hurt you"

But I think the turned corner in this case is that he's shattered his own argument. He's not throwing out a term like 'Well rape obviously in this context doesn't mean sexual assault' or 'Im just saying nigger because it's like a word and I'm like yo, not saying he is one, just saying it'

But in this, that's what he's doing, he's taking the direct racial slur for that person and throwing it directly at that person.

I think people get overly sensitive sometimes about use of words out of context....but this is the exact context you're not supposed to use it in. This is the one where its not only offensive, but that it was 100% meant to use the slur to refer to the race of the person you're saying it to. There's just no wiggle room on this one.

So the fragile,politically corect poster is nothing more than a common bm-er who just wants vengence on somebody who outbm-ed him.
If this was a court of law your credibility would be tarnished and the case dropped.Now the most entertaining sc2 player is banned and facing repercussions.You should write an appology post
Shame on you and on the likes of you.

1. destiny doesnt get the most viewers, not even close.
2. no one is defending other people being rude. but by being famous he has more people to possibly offend by being how he is, if a guy has 1 stream viewer ofcourse theres not gonna be as much of a crapstorm
3. having a personality is nothing to do with how many swear words you know, if it did i would be like world famous numero uno.

Does anyone use a racist word, even when in the most heated of arguments? When arguing with a black person, the idea of saying the word "n*gger" just simply wouldn't cross my mind. I genuinely do think a person that has that sort of word in their arsenal of insults, is inherently racist.

Sigh. Some of the people in this thread are ridiculous. I just wish everyone could be on the same page regarding racism. Were the silly kids who are saying "Who cares?" about Destiny saying the same thing when discussions of Orb were going around? When is it okay for racial slurs to be slung around and when isn't it, because obviously there are times when it's perfectly fine apparently and times when it's not. Why can't we clear up where that fine line exists so we can all find our special places to use racial slurs and be perfectly acceptable? Wouldn't that be fun?

Good Lord, the people in here...

I truly feel that Team Liquid is like a passionating social experimenting on the creation and reproduction of a corporate-friendly SC2 environment.

As the biggest SC2 community on the internet (by far), Team Liquid (and his staff mostly) is actually able to shape (or at least, they have a say) the culture (patterns of behavior and customary norms) of the SC2 "readership". Bans and sanctions gave important contextual information for all the users of this forum on the "dos" and "don't do" of the community. Then, you can count of the self-reinforcing nature of forums (people posting the same thing over and over like this thread) to nourish the dominant norms of values of the community. I'm not saying that those values are wrong, but it seems to me we are nurturing a conflict-less environment, showcasing mostly "positive" values even if most people is just apathetic. It just a corporate wet dream: the 18-25 class age without all the crap that usually comes with it (profanity, deviant behavior, etc... ).

It looks like the pre-betting scandal era from Broodwar, when Broodwar was heralded as the manifestation of the "innocence of youth" (forgot the slogan, but it was something like that). It is truly ironic as the SC2 scene is probably the whitest scene (well, if you count asian as white, lets say "black-less" and "latino-less" ) of all gaming genres. WardenSC has the right to feel offended and, on the same situation, i would have been offended too. But 130 pages on racial slur makes me feel this thread says little about racism and a lot about how much we try to showcase ourselves as the white knights we certainly are not.

So cancer and fag is good but a word which wikipedia defines to be offensive to filipinos and vietnamess is wrong.
Destiny you have my full support and that of the true sc2 community.
I honestly don't get you guys.In another article some tl mod was criticizing 'no face koreans' for winning competitions now tl bans the most entertaining guy out there.
Please be more considerate.

I understand what you are saying, but just because OP can spew out this type of crap as well doesn't make what Destiny said any better. This has been an ongoing issue with Destiny since he began streaming, and has came up countless times. Destiny has said previously that he believes it's fine to use these words, especially OK if they aren't meant in a racist way, but he has said terms in racist ways several times. I mean look, the community got Orb fired from his new job for saying nigger in a game. That's a normal day in Destiny's stream. I remember a while back I was watching Destiny's stream while he was play Deus Ex? and found a black guy and shot him in the head, saying something to the likes of, "shot that nigger dead." Destiny is just a loose cannon, and I don't think he deserves to belong to any team or sponsors at this point no matter how much attention he draws in.

Can't take OP seriously after this. Care to respond to this? Should we start contacting your sponsors too?

It's not like the OP is a random person. He is a streamer I have watched before. He has created great guides such as this one http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=232753 that help many people including myself. The last time I checked he was a grandmaster in NA. The least people can give is a little bit of respect.
