We know this is a crazy and sensitive issue, especially since Life is the most high profile player to be caught up in an "investigation". But please stay calm and refrain from slandering players until we have more information. Egregious posts will be dealt with accordingly.
PLEASE READ THE OP BEFORE POSTING |

Things like this are actually more prevalent when people lack/ need money. that's not how probability works. he's under investigation which in itself makes him an isolated case. if life were NOT being investigated, then you could say that he is less likely in a predictive sense to do such a thing based on demographic data (assuming such data actually indicates less success increases those odds, which is believable, but i don't have those numbers) but once he's accused, if for example he were on trial it would not make any sense to try to defend him by saying "well, he's successful, so why would he do it?" sure, his lawyer would probably try to insinuate exactly that, just like lawyers of rich white people try to argue that they're successful and respected in their communities. but it's not real logic. you can't argue that someone robbed a bank because they're poor and poor people need money, and it doesn't make sense in reverse either this is all assuming there is legitimate evidence of something and that there's no crazy conspiracy to frame life, which is possible as far as i know. but if there is legit evidence, that affects him as a data point, and it becomes a question of did he do something, yes or no, not "would he" do something all that said, we still don't know all of this. but people are talking, and one of the things they're saying is that he wouldn't do it because he's rich, which is very very very silly. True. If anything, it's more understandable (less bad?) when poor people commit an economic crime But I don't think Musicus said "he wouldn't do it because he's rich"
Nope, I'm saying this case is out of the norm.

It was confirmed that it was Life who requested the transfer from KT to Freecs. Why do you think he did that? kt has great coaching, infrastructure etc. Infact kt is just the best team overall and anyone going there can become good (look at spped), but Life is a prodigy, he doesnt do much for months, he slacks off he gets distracted and enjoys his life, and then for a few months a year he puts his back into it, regains his passion and becomes an absolute god
He probably wanted his old Life and friends back!

That's what I think, but why do it so suddenly? Also why the fuck did he participate in the PL photoshoot for KT then?

brickrd, that's not how probability works either.
For example, if you take a mammography and it comes out positive, are you likely to have breast cancer? Intuitively you might think yes, but actually since the test has false positives and cancer rates are low, it's about as likely that the test gave a false answer than that you have cancer. You would be wise to gather more evidence because of this uncertainty.
Similarly, given players have a low chance of being match-fixers. A player getting arrested/questioned increases that chance significantly, but it doesn't somehow magically make the overall low rate disappear or "not count", nor does it remove additional factors that make him unlikely to fix matches. So we really have no good information either way, but factors that reduced probability before continue to reduce probability.

It's also known that in sAviOr's case in particular, boredom and lack of passion for the game played a big role rather than greed.
You are too naive if you think that Savior did something illegal only for boredom, you build things with legos if you are bored, you dont build an illegal ring of matchfixers, and I put only Savior example so dont bring the other guys to the table.

Also if you want to do something bad to get some passion from evil deeds. you can dismantle Lego buildings of others and then throw the lego parts all over the floor so others can step on it! THAT'S EVIL!!!

This is how I remember Real Madrid 10 years back(more or less). Coach was pointing at random players and he received them all
