He committed the mortal sin of pointing out that an attractive female cosplayer is only able to make a living off of playing dress-up because lonely nerds want to see her boobs. Which is true, but not the sort of thing you say publicly.

He spoke the truth about a woman in a community of desperate virgin nerds.

he forgot that he isn't posting on an online nepalese sand image making forum when he started talking shit

so effectively he called a cam whore an attention whore? thats it? and reddit pounced?

tl;dr
This isn`t /pol/. And we don't care about shit that has no baring on the game itself.

WotC pounced because said cam whore was providing them with free publicity.

im not clicking that shit nigga

He broke an EULA and the company did what they had told him they would do if he broke the EULA.

All I know is that my old judo sensei is a MTG tournament judge and went around looking for the guy. Which is terrifying considering the man's size and skill set. The lesson: keep your mouths such about women who dress up like sluts, they don't want to the thought of as sluts, and you don't want to get hit by a planet.

there's a reason I gave you the web archive of it. Shockingly it's a fairly comprehensive list of the events and gives most of the article to unsleeved's comments.

If your old sensei assaults a guy he's going to go to jail for 2-6 just like anyone else.

I also have trouble believing any real sensei would go around trying to intimidate anybody, let alone some rando card game player.

>Shockingly it's a fairly comprehensive list of the events
i dont believe that for a single god damned second.

Pointing out a whore is a whore will get you lynched in communities full of betas.

There is no hobby more beta than Magic

Most people just don't believe anything Polygon says anymore, considering they're SJWs of paramount degree.

Good one mate. Veeky Forums has proven time and time again that it does care.

>Pointing out a whore is a whore will get you lynched in communities full of betas.
>There is no hobby more beta than Magic
thats the god damned truth.
i better steer clear of this game from here on out.
shame, there were some good times.

Google it, visit a Veeky Forums archive, do anything but start another fucking thread on this because all they do is bring in /pol/fags

>inb4 leftist sjw cuck go back to redit

Sure it does. Let's see what page this is on later tonight or even tomorrow. With out a new one being created.

Tl;Dr: a massive jerk has a Facebook group where they shittalk women, one user posts pictures of said group, wotc sees him bad for their image, Ban him and few others.

Nah, dude. That was just the last straw. He has modeled his content after the more wacky variety of conservative political commentators, which basically means saying outrageous shit about people and hope somebody reacts so you can have and online feud. The only problem this retard did not take into account was that certain aspects of MtG, like the DCI and MTGO, are controlled by a company who might not want you around them and have the power to implement that ban. Basically, beardfag bases his content on throwing feces at people, and eventually he threw one turd too many.

I think he intended to talk to the guy and protect all the poor little ladies that are so uncomfortable and threatened. The "getting hit by a planet" bit comes from comments I saw from his friends encouraging him to confront the youtube troll guy. Considering how physically large my sensei is and how seriously oversensitive MtG nerds appear to be, I'd have a hard time envisioning how the troll wouldn't have ended up seriously physically intimidated by any face-to-face verbal confrontation.

But he never signed an EULA.

Pretty much this.

So with that in mind, I wonder to myself how long before some YouTubers whose main thing is 40k get banned from GW tournaments.

he has gotten spoiler cards, he has definitely signed an EULA.

If he never agreed to the terms of either magic online or DCI membership then he didn't actually lose anything, so there's nothing for anyone to be upset about.

They never provided anything that proved he broke the EULA.

Ok, I'll concede that point, I was more talking about making an account to play but I never thought of that.

But what about the fact that the accusations against him were debunked, and the evidence presented by WotC for his ban was neither targeted, nor harassment? And mostly just him bantering on twitter with his friends?

He likes to "troll" other mtg figures and says its just him being edgy.
the tl;dr is that he is an asshole.

when will /pol/ stop shoving e-celeb drama down our throats?

WotC confiscated his entire online collection, as well as a few hundred dollars of credit he had in said game he hadn't spent yet.

that seems to be the thing.

the actual harassers are the people going after him. and wizards is supporting bullying and harassment

I can spot your retarded spelling style in every thread you fucking dumb cunt, paragraphs, they exist, use them.

>But he never signed an EULA.
Oh, then he just stole that stuff and it was never his to begin with.

>They never provided anything that proved he broke the EULA.
They don't have to?

>when will /pol/ stop shoving e-celeb drama down our throats?
Probably after Trump leaves office next year.

>Implying everyone that doesn't like SJWs is /pol/

But really, I'll stop caring when SJWs stop telling me I'm a bad person for not caring whether or not women are interested in my hobby, and they stop trying to change my hobby for bullshit political reasons.

>>They never provided anything that proved he broke the EULA.
>They don't have to?

Well it is a legal document. So, yeah, there would be precedent for needing evidence.

Your bait is weak, please look another hobby.

How did he get a magic online account without agreeing to anything?

>They don't have to?
They do when money is involved.

He can sue them fore that.

You must be new to this rodeo. Any time feminists and white knights are involved this is the way it is. They claim everything they're doing is being done to them.

This is why people despise the MTG community at this point. This sort of shit is constantly happening. They're trying to remove their core fanbase and replace it with people who aren't interested in playing the game.

Beta Orbiters gain courage when they can be anonymous

>bait

I don't even know how what I said was bait. It's how I feel.

Which is well within their rights. Why is this so hard to grasp? If you spend money on online services, companies can withdraw that service at the drop of a hat. There's nothing illegal about it and you can thank lobbyists for it.

I wasn't specific enough, I was talking about creating an account to play in physical tournaments and such, which doesn't have an EULA.

I would assume that the online version does have an EULA.

Having the wrong feelings is bait, user. Don't you know anything?

You are either part of the /pol/ raid or a retard too stupid to notice that we are being raided.

This is not the express your feelings board, is the talk about tabletop games board.

>You are either part of the /pol/ raid or a retard too stupid to notice that we are being raided
>user makes claim that /pol/ is involved with zero evidence to back it up except his feels
You do realize that people can have opinions that go against your own and not be part of the /pol/ boogeyman, right?

So they confiscated his entire online collection which he was using to play in physical tournaments?

Jesus fuck do you people even think about your lies before you say them or is it just something you do reflexively when you feel threatened?

those tweets are of other mtg e-celebs, saying that he is going to "troll" them, his argument is that it's just him being "edgy". He has videos trying to explain why those people don't want to talk to him anymore and that he is "sorry".
He definitely broke the EULA.

I was expressing my feelings about a traditional game, therefore it is relevant.

If you think this is what it looks like when a Veeky Forums board raids, you must be knew here or /pol/ is just your internet boogeyman. Cross-board posters exist. And the last time I went to /pol/ it wasn't anywhere near as homogeneous in opinion or thoughts as you or a lot other people seem to think it is. Classic "my in-group is so diverse and different and the out-group is entire homogeneous" thinking.

We live in a period where the anti-SJWs are just as despised as the SJWs themselves, user. The only winning move is to curl up into a ball and never express yourself again.

Show me one where he specifically targets someone in a harassing manner that isn't him bantering with a friend.

Also "troll" is not synonymous with "harassment".

There is a huge overlap between Veeky Forums and /pol/ considering /pol/ is the biggest board on the site.

There isn't a raid happening. We're always here, we have 4 different tabs open right now discussing different Veeky Forums hobbies.

>He goes to /pol/

>Not an argument

But I'll respond anyway. I don't actively go to /pol/. Every once in a while I pop in to see what it looks like. You know, actually seeing a thing with my own eyes instead of just taking someone's word for it.

>/pol/ is the biggest board on the site
>/pol/tards actually believe this
>laughingsjws.jpg

>i only care because SJWs care! i promise i wouldnt share gossip like a basic bitch if it wasnt for those damn SJWs!!!!

ok.

>They don't have to?

Which sets a worrying precedence, where a company can ban you without any evidence.

He's a bit of a cunt but at the end of the day seems to just take the piss and want people to make up their own minds about stuff so often presents "the other side" to things.

He is overcompensating for his inner fear that he is not 'man' enough.

Luckily for Wizards exercising their right to arbitrarily deny a person access to their product for arbitrary reasons is entirely within their rights based on the EULA.

>implying that going to /pol/ even once is enough to qualify one as '/pol/ boogeyman'
Fuck, by that standard even I part of /pol/, and only visited the board once 3 years back to see what was going on. Crazy place, that board.

To be fair, /pol/ DOES get the most media coverage these days compared to the other boards.

>they don't want to the thought of as sluts

Slut shaming!

That's not how it works.
Everyone is either an SJW or /pol/.
If you disagree with the SJWs, than you're clearly /pol/.
If you disagree with /pol/, then you're clearly a tumblrina.
And don't you FUCKING dare say that they're similar, or anything like that, because obviously they're nothing alike, and only one of them is a problem - the other one's just a boogeyman.
Oh yeah, and obviously all of this is super-important and actually means anything outside of a couple of echo chambers on the internet.

He's just an idiot who makes (made, hah) a living by making ridiculous comments about people and stirring shit, and like many such folks gathered up an entourage of impressionable fools all too willing to personally 'help' him by messing with the people he disparages. Eventually he went after some cosplayer, but failed to take into account that she was pretty much providing WotC with free advertising, so she was much more valuable to them than he is.

The result? Permaban.

Except there's no evidence he went after said cosplayer.

When they insist that a women is a whore and there should be no repurcussions for calling a woman a whore in public I have a hard time believing they're not /pol

he shows the tweet of him about to "troll" the professor at an mtg event.
He released a video on why the professor doesn't want to talk to him anymore, apologizing.
These people he claims to troll are not his friends, his trolling is definitely not friendly banter.

I liked his channel when he just opened old packs, instead of stirring up drama because other people who make better content than him are more successful than him.

What if she really is a whore though? Albeit a metaphorical whore, not a literal one.

>deposit money into a bank
>bank decides they don't want you as a customer anymore
>also, they're keeping all the money you deposited there

>it's ok for me to shit wherever I want because this city has sewers

Check the traffic.

You can see Veeky Forumss traffic going down 25% because it's full of people like you whining constantly

You play Magic the Gathering why the fuck are you and others in here posturing as if you're a badass alpha male and not some fuck ass incel mad at cosplayers

>that isn't him bantering with a friend
>I have an audience of over 100k self-important conservicucks looking for an axe to grind, but if I publicly call out people by name for doing things I don't agree with I shoulder none of the blame when my audience attacks them

the video he released about sprankle got taken down by youtube for bullying/harassment.

You do realized we are having this thread everyday?
You do realized is pointless? A fat fucked got banned for admitting starting shit, it doesn´t mean anything, they can do it so they did

Are her tears not enough evidence? Listen and believe, shitlord.

I don't play Magic. I used to play Magic

>read posts until you get triggered and reply

Then why the fuck do you even care

>taken down by youtube for bullying/harassment

You mean flagged by people who targeted him.

>When they insist that a women is a whore and there should be no repurcussions for calling a woman a whore in public I have a hard time believing they're not /pol
the problem you have user, is that you care more about being nice than you care about truth.
that is the epistomology of betas

>buying online points that the company ensures has monetaru value is the same as putting money in a bank

Are you trying to say the most retarded shit?

You're still insulting someone in public, nigga.

Also the idea that someone is a whore for profiting from their attractiveness is hilarious. You may as well call nearly every major actor a whore. Chris Hemsworth ain't bad but wasn't his sterling performance that got him a ride as Thor, it was his immaculate abdomen and willingness to show it off.

>keep your mouths such about women who dress up like sluts
Tough shit, a spade is a spade, and you senpai a white knight manlet shit.

Of course, when you change the definition of "going after" to mean "only direct incitement of violence". There is no evidence.

Back in reality where the rest of us live, there's lots of evidence. He repeatedly mentions her and constantly likens cosplayers to porn stars and degenerates. The man knew his fanbase were easily riled up and would do things like send death threats even when he didn't personally speak too harshly. Did he ever once address this problem in his own community? The answer to that is no. He hid behind the thin veil of "well i didn't technically do it myself so im not *legally* responsible! pay no mind to my complacency!"

In the end, his career only ever existed because he was a gossip. Idiots only champion him because it's yet another "battlefield" to "fight" the SJW boogieman.

>Also the idea that someone is a whore for profiting from their attractiveness is hilarious.

>create bank account, part of which requires signing a contract that states you forfeit all assets invested in the bank if you violate the bank's terms of service
>deposit money into a bank
>violate terms of service
>bank exercises its rights agreed upon in the contract you signed
>also, they're keeping all the money you deposited there as agreed upon
I'm sorry there are repurcussions for actions user, in a perfect world we could all be edgy cunts with no consequences.

Did you sign a contract with the bank allowing them to do that? Then don´t cry later for your shitty election of banks.

Because I enjoy watching MTG go down in flames.

They don't care about being nice, they care about choosing a side that will get them good boy points with as little actual risk as possible.
If people actually cared about being nice they wouldn't be taking vicarious pleasure from trying to clamp down speech and thought codes on individuals and the rest of society. "Niceness", or the pursuit of justice and kindness, would get them into conflicts, not trailing the camp of the victorious culture war army.

Of course Veeky Forums isn't the biggest you moron, but until you can provide a source showing pol gets the most traffic consistently I'll just have to assume you're full of shit

>the video he released about sprankle got taken down by youtube for bullying/harassment.
Was that ever confirmed or was it caused by mass-flagging? I seen mixed reports on that (granted I haven't followed the drama too closely either).

>Back in reality where the rest of us live, there's lots of evidence.
I'm growing increasingly certain that your 'evidence' doesn't exist and your 'reality' is actually just an echo chamber user. Just saying.

>when things that I don't like happen the only reason could be because I'm being personally attacked

Guess what, you stupid nigger. Insulting someone is not a crime. Stupid nigger.

Cosplaying ain't a sexual act, you idiot. The forward to prostitute there indicates that it means the sex act, the physical act of sex. Nor is it promiscuous.

>You can have things you own taken from you, such as the cards he owns online and paid good money for that were outright taken from him, because you say something the company doesn't like
>No baring on the game itself.

I don't give a fuck about him, he can die in a ditch. But the fact they took away shit he paid good money for, with no compensation? That's horseshit.
