Value Town #63
On this week's episode of Value Town, ChanmanV, Noxious, and Ekop discussed the past week of Hearthstone, recent events, Elky's ghosting, harassment, and viewer Q&A.
Watch Episode #63 of Value Town below! You can find previous episodes over on ChanmanV's YouTube channel.
I find it really frustrating the dismissive attitude so many people have about harassment. Yes, it is something that every streamer has to deal with, to a degree, and there is little if anything that you can do about it, but that doesn't make it right, and that doesn't mean anyone has a right to blatantly insult or belittle others. People have the right to be offended, and there are things that should never be said without being told it is offensive. In addition, sexism against women is different than the average insults that other streamers have to put up with. It is one thing to be insulted, but sexism is about telling someone they are intrinsically worthless because of their gender. It's not a matter of just "changing circles", because women especially have to put up with this in just about any scenario they find themselves.
Romania!?
Read 'Elky's ghosting', quickly went to reddit for some fresh hearthstone drama. And? The whole thing went smoothly, dude admitted he did it and for what reasons, almost no flaming, instant forgiveness. What the hell, community? This is not how you were raised by the internets!
I'd be so bummed to hae 25 grand taken away by RNJesus
Another day,another NOT A NEW EXPANSION post :(
About ghosting delayed tournament streams, my opinion is that the only reasonable thing is to allow it. The rule is just too hard to enforce, so it's better if all players can do it. Even the more honorable ones.
See tournament is very constructive for those who wants evolve on competitive.
Finally a tournament which I can watch again. No invitational. That's great.
Interestingly, but it is very long.
