Recently, Memb has been complaining a lot about streamsnipers, called them badly and urged mods to ban them, and big part of the community have supported him in that. But I want to reveal different flip side of a coin.
I play DE under the nickname "Dirty Player". Almost every game i pick berbers and realise the same strategy, probably there are many players who are not streaming and have played against me, they know that i can find opponents base REALLY fast, and sometimes lame 2 boars + berries +deer at once. Today I had a game against Memb. I was not streamcheating, but i opened his stream to see the reaction, because I have quite novel strategy and I would like to know what some known people in the community would have to say about it. What did I see? Tons of negative comments about myself and threats to report me and to contact mods so that they could ban me. There were tons of negative comments in chat too, calling me lowlife psychopath and ect. Memb was very, very angry at me and continued to insult me, while he refuced to gg in game even though game was completely over (i was winning). At the end i have decided to resign, because i didnt want to play any furhter + memb was almost crying and I was a little worried about his mentallity.
So it turns out, that memb is very toxic player, who accuses his opponents in streamcheating and drives his audience towards bad attitude and toxicity. Do you guys think this is appropriate?
Overall, the situation brings up even broader issue of negativity towards nonconventional playstyles. I play "dirty style" strategies, and every third game i got insulted and have to research spies to finish the game. I think this is fundamentally wrong and unethical, because there is nothing bad in playing douche or vilrush or anything, if it works - it works why insulting the playir who does it?
