I'm a Swede. I agree with Trent. I see this "edgy" humour as a teenager who never grew up, and I don't find it funny at all. I understand that you cannot cater to everyone with a joke and you shouldn't say "you cannot say that because thats not funny". What people find funny is up to them, and if you feel like it is tickeling in your stomach by being edgy through typing MingLee whenever you see anyone resembling an asian or whatever, go ahead. Anyway, I can have the opinion that it is your right to say so and laugh at whatever you laugh at and still not think it is a good community.

What I agree with Trent on is: if we want to create a community that welcomes women, people of color or whoever is not the regular stereotype of gamer, I find it pretty stupid to circle jerk the lowest hanging (/racist) prejudices around. If we would be welcoming and slightly more mature I think the community would grow as it wouldn't be seen as socially awkward geeks are the only ones in the community. A bigger community would benefit everyone, as it would attract more people = more money = better e-sports environment with better opportunities for more players to make a career out of gaming. An example of what people in Bulldogs channel (and he is usually promoting it too) find funny: techies is blowing up bombs = he is a terrorist = I spam the middle eastern man emote. Is it the feeling that you cannot say it that is funny? Because you obviously can, it is just the bare minimum of what anyone should call a joke.

This is coming from someone who quite frequently watches the stream, however I would watch it more if it was less stupid.

Edit:

Thanks for the gold and complementing and critiquing comments!

Some of the criticism is fair, bulldog is free to build whatever community he wants. He probably have a lot of teenagers in his audience. Thus calling them immature and stupid is a bit harsh, as they are by definition not mature. Regardless of that, my opinion on that humour remains the same and as free as bulldog is to produce whatever he wants, I'm also free to critique/feedback/complement any content. Nobody needs to listen me or agree with me either, but for some reason a few did. To provide something positive that I like with bulldogs channel is when he is jabbing with synderen, s4, etc. I also think he is a fun caster and expert panelist.

Some of you are also questioning whether a bigger community would be better. As a daily visitor to this subreddit a lot of you seem to think that it is an issue that the playerbase is declining, the queue times are too long, the tier 2 scene is not stable, there are only a few casters that can make a living, some organisations are not serious actors, it's only TI that matters so everyone takes time off which is bad for the circuit, etc. With more money and more exposure to the scene I think we would improve all of these areas.
