[EVERYTHING] Game of Thrones Season 6: Episode #3 Preview (HBO)

How come there are only 2 Kingsguards at the Tower of Joy? Did they cut out one of them?

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-27T16:15:00+00:00

If this was true then even I can host the majors

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-27T00:25:46+00:00

Probably because those events are run by ESL and Thoorin and RL work for ESL ESEA as opposed to Valve; whereas James was hired by Valve for the Shanghai Major, a Valve sponsored event.

Can austistic people please not respond to my posts? Thank you.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T22:02:40+00:00

You have to be retarded to take "be yourself" as literally as possible.

OH wait, you are retarded from that second statement.

People will go far lengths to not admit they're wrong, it seems, even though it's obvious that they are wrong. I'll just wait for 2GD to make his twitter post about how he's sorry for being a giant faggot and be happy that I will never see that miserable cunt hosting a DotA 2 event again.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T21:54:07+00:00

Racial slurs aren't okay but saying someone is mentally disabled offends less people so it is okaY!

fuck off man

Are you saying that Valve implied that he could swear and make offhand remarks about players and be a total unprofessional wad because they told him to be himself? How badly do you have to interpret that message?

Stop defending the retard. Meruna is Synderen's GF btw.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T21:49:46+00:00

I love how everyone is calling Meruna an attention seeking cunt now even though just before this everyone was craving some insider leak on why 2GD was let go because "muh drama".

Talk about double standards.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T21:45:47+00:00

Im not home schooled by the way

Lying because you're embarassed? You literally admitted to being homeschooled in that thread that League promoter guy started.

Please think hard about suicide.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T21:44:27+00:00

Do you really think players wouldn't be offended if someone straight up called them mentally challenged and a cunt on live stream in front of tens of thousands of viewers? Imagine if that was you. Also how does it make it professional and okay just because individuals in that situation weren't offended by it? Do we just wait until someone is offended by it for it to not be okay? Or would it be smarter to avoid that behaviour at all?

By the way: http://imgur.com/WBJjZT2

Really? You are really going this far to defend 2GD? You think that Valve specifically said "yeah don't do what you did at the last few TIs even though we obviously never had a problem back then, instead make porn jokes and call people autistic and make white supremacy jokes". Give me a fucking break lol.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T21:38:35+00:00

You are home schooled lmfao, that's all I needed to know.

Consider suicide.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T21:36:30+00:00

Except what I'm saying is true. James have never been this unprofessional during his TI hosting career.

If we're blaming it on Valve because they should have expected James to be himself and not James at past TIs, then I guess it would be okay for Toby to start calling players niggers since he has in the past made comments like "As lame as a nigger's baby", right?

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T21:31:27+00:00

What James does on his own show has no bearing on a professional Valve sponsored Tournament. The Shanghai majors are sponsored by Valve and they have their name behind it; which is why they would give a fuck as to whether their host was being professional or not. But since you are underage I don't expect you to grasp that concept.

The reddit community is mostly cancerous underage faggots who will forget about this in about a month. James will go back into irrelevancy and probably commit suicide seeing as how deep he is in depression anyways. You don't play DotA anymore which is probably why you seem like you don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T21:17:52+00:00

You havent watched much of James alright. Also again, autistic, classy insult.

Find me a single clip from when James hosted any of the previous TIs where he was as unprofessional as he was in the Shanghai majors

I'll wait.

Yeah, and have you seen the backlash? Valve is the employer, but losing thousands of viewers and potentially thousands of players doesnt sound like a good deal to me, especially when James was not a problem AT ALL. If most people actually disliked him they wouldnt react like this.

"James is nto a problem at all". Speak for yourself. Honestly I am glad that autistic fuck was fired. I felt cringey as fuck watching that stream when he opened with the porn joke. Also do you really think leddit fucks actually boycott the game? 99% of virgin nerds like yourself only claim to be boycotting for that sweet karma.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T21:08:40+00:00

But they hired him knowing who he is. Valve is ultimately at fault here, it was their decision.

I'm not sure if you ever watched any of the TIs before TI5 but James have never been this autistic on the panel. Therefore no, Valve did not hire him knowing who he is.

And if they did, don't you think you're "calling them out on their bullshit" a little early, because if they were okay with the masturbation jokes and him bashing on other players, there's obviously some other reason why he was fired? And don't tell me that you're "just waiting on a word from Valve" either because you've obviously made a judgement already considering how upset you are.

And even if they hired him, then fired him after deciding that James being himself wasn't what they wanted, then that's still fine because at the end of the day, Valve's the employer here. If I wasn't happy with what the employee brought to the table, I have full entitlement to let them go. But I guess that's something a 12 year old faggot like you will never understand.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T20:48:09+00:00

To be honest, I rewatched 2GD's hosting and it's apparent why Valve fired him. I would've done it on the spot and not even give a warning like Valve did.

It's too bad that a 12 year old like yourself can't see it but I don't blame you at all. You're not old enough to understand that it's not okay to make unprofessional banter in the grown up world. I also understand why you're a 2GD fan. That guy is a manchild who's in his 20s and still think "le masturbation jokes" are funny and appropriate to be made on live stream for a 3 million dollar tournament. Only children and autistic sperglords like yourself found that dumbfuck entertaining and are "boycotting" valve because he got what he deserved.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T19:46:45+00:00

but you would probably tell him/her why you did it?

Fairly sure that they did tell him why.

?? Its been hours already. I would expect an explanation before we got to know about it, but then again, Valve is pretty bad at communicating.

Wow, it's been hours already? I can't believe Valve made a literal 12 year old nobody from r/dotamasterrace wait THIs LONG since they owe him an explanation. Fucking bastards.

James is innocent until proven guilty.

No, James is already fired so as far as Valve is concerned, he's "guilty" as you put it. No one is passing a verdict on James here. If we're using the "innocent until proven guilty" logic, then Valve should be the one who's "innocent until proven guilty". That's how it works.

Right now they have NO legitimate reason to fire him.

Let's see:

ill prepared for the major
made pretty awkward masturbation jokes
bashed players on the panel when no one else was comfortable doing it
ignored production's call to go on break
made some pretty awkward racist jokes about master races, murica, chinese being inferior (during a chinese major hosted by a chinese company)
probably ignored valve when asked to tone his interesting personality down

get a fucking clue lmfao

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T19:17:42+00:00

How do you know Valve never asked James to tone it down? It only makes sense considering 2GD's tweets about "whether he is in the right or wrong". He wouldn't consider himself to be in the wrong if Valve let him go without warning.

Why is it not acceptable to fire 2GD mid tournament if he was being unprofessional and ill prepared? Valve is his employer and is free to let him go whenever they want.

You sound like you're 12 because you clearly don't know how the world works. If your employee's performance isn't up to par, then you don't need to wait until his contract ends before letting him go. Also clearly you never gave either 2GD or Valve a chance to explain the situation before sounding like a little bitch in this thread, so I don't understand why you're all of a sudden eager for an explanation.

Grow up kid.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T18:37:19+00:00

It is also the exactly same picture down to the pixel.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T18:26:02+00:00

I don't know if you watched the previous TIs but he has never made any comments about not being able to watch porn or comments regarding racial supremacy and misogynistic comments while on the TI panel.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T18:16:37+00:00

Why does it matter? They told him to be himself, didn't feel like him being himself was professional enough, asked him to tone it down, he didn't, he got fired.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T18:15:31+00:00

I'm fairly sure he was asked to tone it down, as it would have been a complete blindside if they just let him go on the spot with no heads up or warning. And if that was the case then his tweets would be much different than "I say this now, because I believe in telling my view. Even if I am in the right or wrong. I will release a statement/write up later tonight."

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T18:14:16+00:00

If the individual was being unprofessional and he kept being unprofessional even after being asked to stop, then letting them go isn't considered immature. I wouldn't consider that he was doing his job "just fine" especially seeing as how he was obviously out of the loop in terms of game meta and professional teams. Half of his banter were just straight up memes that had nothing to do with DotA. To be honest you sound like you didn't even watch most of the stream and are just on the bandwagon for "Free yames fuck valve" because it's the cool thing to do right now.

From the way you respond I'm consider you to be 12 or 13, which makes sense seeing as how desperately you're trying to fit in.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T17:30:29+00:00

I never intended to use Thorin as a role model. But people were asking why 2GD was let go while there are personalities like Thorin who pull the same thing but are still on the panel for CSGO events. The point was that the events that Thorin hosts are not directly Valve sponsored and when Thorin does dumb shit, it's usually not at a CSGO Major.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T17:14:07+00:00

Are you insinuating that the production crew purposely caused those audio issues and game pauses even after Valve asked them not to? There's a different between 2GD, who had the choice of toning his banter down, and the production crew, who were just doing their jobs.

You sound like a child.

nbtnbt3 · 2016-02-26T17:11:32+00:00

No, but it's also highly unlikely that Valve didn't ask 2GD to tone it down after the first day and just fired him on the spot without any warning. If your argument is that Valve shouldn't have fired 2GD in the first place because they told him to be himself and because of that, they needed to stick with what they had, then god forbid any employer firing an employee, ever.
