Tyler1's Ban

Although i agree with the ban itself,Phreak as a riot employee using the ban to attract audience to his stream is a new low for a man who once was the face of riot. Stay classy riot games.

The only ones drawing attention to it, are sorry little Tyler Fanbois, who cannot cope with the fact that their internet-fame-idol has to live by the same rules as everyone else.

Oh and, Phreak is still a face (and voice as far as champion spotlights and shoutcasts go) of Riot, and is still an awesome guy, while Tyler fanboys are still...well...sad.

shouldn't there be different standards on what an infamous streamer can say and what a riot employee can?

MartensiticJun 19, 20177 votes

No, actually there should not.

Everyone should be held to the same standards. That's called "Being Fair".

RainfallJun 19, 20172 votes

well that is your personal opinion.

MartensiticJun 19, 20176 votes

So? Your above post is your personal opinion.

Its an opinion that is likely shared by most rational thinking people.

FiddlesOnTheRoofJun 19, 20171 votes

I think so, yes. Tyler1 is a customer of RIot Games'. Phreak is an employee. So in my opinion, yes, Phreak should be held to a higher standard than Tyler1.

Calling out people for being fangirls isn't misogynistic.

Pointing out that women are women is mysogynism?

Interesting. Absurd, but interesting.

Good for him. Doesn't change what he did in the past. And as he was punished for what he did in the past, and not what he may or may not do in the future, the ban will stay exactly the way it is, and fanboys will learn that pseudo-internet-fame doesn't protect from rules or consequences of ones actions.

No, they won't. Because it boils down to a simple question:

Does a multi-billion-dollar industry have to bow to the wants of some guy on youtube and a few thousand vocal fanboys.

And the answer to that question, is a big, fat:

#NO.

You made a point of calling them fan "girls" the implication being that "girls" know less about the game than "boys"

#I did what now?

How about you compare the summoner names before making such accusations?

The post you refer to was written by "archerno1"

I am "Martensitic"

And yes, we use coincidentially use the same summoner icon, but the name is right next to it. I don't really know how anyone can get that wrong.

my apologies kind sir. i only looked at the icon and assumed it was the same person. can you find it in your heart to forgive me?

How does yelling "you have no mana" imply you know less about the game? If anything it implies they know where the mana bar is.

DrCyanideJun 19, 20173 votes

They're not going to change their rules, but they will likely unban him someday. The only people who were banned who never got the ban lifted were those who still think what they did was right.

Hey guys, I really need to note here (this isn't aimed at you marten, sorry) that this is not part of the topic and it is easily derailing the discussion in a toxic way, so I'm ending it right here so that we can stay on track. Please everyone avoid getting into bait discussions if you can, especially ones like this.

Marten I simply edited out your post because it had enough content to possibly reignite Troll Armada's off-topic discussion by itself. This is not a warning or punishment against you in any way.

MartensiticJun 19, 20171 votes

I understand completely, and thank you for your efforts.

Glad to see the moderation is taking a more ... fine tuned effort.

Thunbs up :D

Calling people girls instead of young ladies is now misogynist. You heard it here first, folks.

uh... you do realize that this is literally the archetypal case study in any university women's studies course, in regards to structural misogyny right?

MartensiticJun 19, 20171 votes

in any university women's studies course

In any US university woman's studies course.

Fixed that for you, because where I come from, no one throws a tantrum over terminology, which was in no sane interpretation of the words, used in a belitteling or derogatory manner.

Coincidentially, students also tend to not have several 100k of student debts where I come from...I wonder if there is a connection...

He didn't use the ban.... Phreak has always answered questions for his stream. If somebody asks about the ban of course he'll answer. Even Tryndamere answered a question about it.... THink about that. Maybe it's Riot holding firm on the ban of an unacceptable player and having a united front on not unbanning a TOXIC player.

lol, Phreak was kind of a popular streamer before LoL was even LoL. Anything to do with tyler1 is probably completely irreverent to his existence. Beneath him like Draven is beneath AurelionSol lore power wise. ######and of course he plays sol as a jungler

MartensiticJun 19, 20171 votes

Yes, and because that is totally the case, he makes a show of being Mr. Niceguy on league, and his loyal fanbase comes to QQ on the boards about the issue on a regular basis.

Totally believable.
