FGC and Sexism.

FGC? Not on 8wayrun. Keep that ignorant shit where it belongs. This place is probably one of the more sexually diverse and sexually excepting community in the fighting game scene.

All Aris was saying is simply the FGC is immature deal with it. And that's really the bottom line.

The problem is that the Soul Calibur community is inherently tied to the FGC. Unless SCV can somehow catch up to SF4 or MvC3, it's going to have to stay as part of the FGC, which means it will be associated with folks like Aris. If fighting games in general and SCV in particular want to be taken as a serious business opportunity, the community as a whole needs to act the part. Trash talking is fine and dandy, you see it all the time in professional sports, but there needs to be serious thought on the choice of words when you do the trash talk.

I can't remember the last time I was called a 'mexican jew lizard' playing Starcraft. I've had people drop the f-bomb on me based on username alone playing fighting games.
 
Well the FGC has this retarded notion of invisibility. They're barely catching up to rest of competitive genres but you'd think they're on top of the world. They have this illusion that they can keep up with their retarded ass behavior segregating themselves from the rest of the gaming world, while continuing constant growth.

That remains to be seen. Personally when shit like this hits the mainstream media, I have absolute zero faith in the sustainability of competitive FGs. Talk to me five years from now.

This shit doesn't benefit any community. It only hurts communities, and further keeps people home.
 
NO Soul calibur IS NOT tied to the rest of the FGC

These assholes on SRK/TZ/what the fuck ever have been shit talking the game since SC3

how many break weeklies had SC4?
The SC community has many members that are on SRK but SRK probably has way less members on here.
We aren't them. We pride ourselves on not being them.
Whens the last time you watched a soul calibur stream and people were spamming shit like "salt" "kappa" ect in chat?

PS aris is Aris...him being aris isn't an excuse to be an asshole. If you think being better at a game gives you the right to insult someone personally you are a jerk off.
Ive had my share of E-arguments but I've never once insulted anyone on anything except player skill.
