Just reminding people the type of company they're choosing to support. You could give your money to hitler for all I cared.

guys seriously don't support them. I'll do CEVO with you guys if you will cancel. don't give money to such a shitty company. both of you were disapointed in ACE for getting ESEA. you both said directly to me how much you were disapointed in him for getting it. I don't know why you would just change your opinion about it after its been a small length of time. I'll make a post now if you respond and tell me that you want to do it we can get started right away. but PLEASE have some fucking dignity and don't claim a place is shit and then give them money, or even use their shit. lets go do CEVO please.

that last post sounded attacking. its your money to do with how you please, so don't let me come off wrong about that. I hate ESEA so much that I just get mad at the very discussion of them so that will come across in my typings. but yeah lets do cevo instead. sorry if I sounded attacking towards mutiny and travis.

also......triple post

also they are using promotion didn't pay for it. just to add that in. also still lets do cevo.

Here's an awesome post from reddit about the bitcoin mining incident, and I think it pretty well sums up the incident.
Quote:
You just need to use an analogy:

You drive to a fancy restaurant in your brand-new car. You can't find reasonable parking anywhere, so you decide to use their valet service. You're told that you have to give your car keys to the valet, so they can go park it someplace safe while you enjoy your dinner. You do so.

The valet immediately drives off to the nearest demolition derby, and enters your brand-new car. So, the bad news is that your car is now really messed up, because, you know, it's a demolition derby. But the good news is that the valet won lots of prize money! It's too bad he's going to keep all of it, and not give you any.

You leave the restaurant, and see that your car has been horribly smashed up. The valet initially denies damaging your car at all, but once you point out that one of your doors is missing, and that he's still wearing a helmet with a demolition derby logo on it, he says that you "misunderstood" what you were agreeing to when you handed over your keys. He claims that when you did so, you were giving him permission to use your car, and therefore you were allowing him to drive your car in the demolition derby, and smash it up as much as he wanted. You say that's ridiculous and threaten to call the police, so finally, he assures you that all of the damage that he caused to your car will be completely repaired, and any parts that he broke will be replaced, free of charge. You just need to take it to the auto repair shop that's run by his father. No, he won't pay your repair bills if you take it to any other shop. You have to go to his dad's shop.

So you take your car to his father's shop, and his father is outraged. "You're saying that my son did this to your car?" You explain that your car was brand new, right off of the lot, and only after you used the valet parking service was it completely totaled. You mention that his son admitted to driving your car in a demolition derby. "Do you have any proof that this damage was caused in the demolition derby? You could have crashed your car five minutes before driving it to the restaurant. Do you have a detailed analysis of your car's condition from exactly five minutes before?" Of course you don't. "Well, too bad. Looks like you'll have to pay whatever the fuck I want to charge you."

The valet and his mechanic father continue to do this to thousands of cars. They make lots of money smashing up other people's cars in the demolition derby, and they make lots of money charging to repair the very damage they caused.

And everyone still has to pay for the valet service, too.

I hope it does some good. I am tired of reading about how the NA scene is gonna die if something happens to ESEA, or how its some stupid nerd witch hunt. it makes me boil with such rage that I could just rip the fucking skin off someone's face and eat it. Cal died and guess what....scene is still around. I stand behind what the person in the comments said "if the NA scene dies, then it deserves to die if this is how the professional organizations run themselves."
