- leagues shouldn't even need a written "no slurs allowed rule". that should be understood behavior. the implication of a slur should always be enough to warrant a ban
- this clearly was not a ban by association. even if it was, it's a good thing. i actually agree with banning people that are associated with notably bad people in the community.
- any league should have the right to not allow anyone person to play for any reason they deem necessary. this is important b/c a) you cant catch everything with the rules, and b) its important for a league (or literally any non-government organization or company) to be able to establish a culture, especially one with a zero-tolerance policy on racism.
- it being a meme or a joke literally does not matter.
- if you are banned or punished by a league, for any reason. you're not a victim, you're not being cancelled. you're not entitled to due process. you're not literally being put in jail because an eports league decides that they do not want you a part of their organization.
Seinfeldits a privately hosted FPS game competitive league, if u get banned u dont get a trial u have no rights there are no laws that save u. the most u can do is ask for ur money back. not commenting on the legitimacy of whether cember should be banned or not, ive never had a problem with him, but u guys really need to stop acting like ur 1st amendment is being infringed
- pointing out the hypocrisy of the admins for saying slurs is good. it's of my opinion that anyone even loosely associated with the toxic racist/sexist/transphobic culture that is underpinning at least a plurality of the competitve tf2 esports scene. of course, rgl is allowed to promote anyone they want to as admin, as well as ban anyone they want to.
- yes, that culture exists, there's been countless examples brought up in the past several years. dont try to deny it, and its good for a league to be proactive rather than reactive in dealing with a massive toxicity issue.
- if you don't like it, don't play.
Ok now this time post it on your main :)
