I don't know if Valor harassed them but i know i individually did and i'm sorry for that i doubt Michelle will forget me but it's worth a shot. I did read the thread it's just that i didn't remember every single sentence ;-;. No but we actually don't ddos the only one that ddos's is cozzy and he isn't even in our clan he just hangs out on the teamspeak. I don't know about the past Valor but i joined about a week ago. I apologize for what i have done in the past i have realized over these past days that i've been a real Feminine Hygene Product. So here's my apology for Michelle~

Michelle i first met you in Chrome that's where i first ever heard of you and talked to you i was in the clan for a day and you thought i was CandyCranium and that conversation lasted about a minute. The day after that i left the clan & i haven't heard about you in a month or so. After one of my friends brought you up he talked about your nudes & as a guy i shamefully asked for it and he said no.
I than asked you for it which i regret very much because that was a very rude thing of me but i did.
After another month or so i always heard you talking bad about my friend Jasmine & that's when i started harassing you. I never really asked jasmine why you hated her & why she hated you but i always backed her up because she's my friend. But, you and Jasmine made up & i think we should make up ^_^. I fully understand if you don't forgive me because i'm a complete Feminine Hygene Product and i apologize for whatever i did.
Finally someone that harrassed her stands up. Good job gives yourself a good rep. :D

Honestly Sc, this isn't funny. Commenting things like this are unnecessary in my opinion. Do this on a different thread, but this one. Honestly you need to act more mature about things like this.
foopy add me on skype if u ever need someone to talk to : Live:soccerbh (putting my skype out #yolo)

But those options take away from the experience of MCG. I think the best option is to re-paint your image. It is a slow and most likely a tedious thing to do but you'll re-earn people's respect and eventually people will forget what you have done and you can carry on. In her case it is extremely difficult but it can happen. Just coming out like this changed a lot of people's opinion and she got more respect. You don't have to do that stuff.

Wow. As tough as it is to read this, stories like these open the eyes of countless online abusers who finally realize the harm they do. I give you mad props for sharing this story and revealing a ton of your personal life and struggles. The worst part about this is that many more people go through this everyday, but they don't have the courage to speak up like you did.
-----------------
Warning: this next part of my post uses Foopy's story as an argument for the cause of getting terms like "eZ" and "rekt" made an offense in the mcsg rules. If Foopy or anyone else sees this as innapropriate or insensitive (using her difficult story to help promote a seperate cause) I'll gladly take it down.

Now, I'm sure we've all heard about the controversy surrounding negative terms like "eZ" and "rekt". We've heard people argue that these sayings should fall under rule 2 in the mcsg rulebook, and the senior staff reply that players should get thicker skins and that the saying of these terms will never be an offense. Besides, how much harm can a little online harassment do?

In response to that question, I present to you this thread. Look at what Foopy has gone through online and how the internet has changed from a hopeful save haven to a torture cell for her. (note- I am aware that what Foopy has gone through is much worse than someone saying eZ in chat.) The abuse she has gotten has led her into an even deeper depression and precarious state of mental health. All of this abuse has been words, snarled at Foopy in chat or thrown at her in group calls. Words hurt, they hurt a whole lot and as shown here can even effect the personality of people in real life.

So why, knowing how much damage words can do to people over the internet, do the staff avoid punishing the most common type of abuse on mcsg? I've heard staff members argue that terms like "rekt" aren't that big a deal because, well, they aren't that mean and don't hurt people. Unfortunately, some people take these sayings very personally and let them effect their mental psyche. Imagine if you are severely depressed and play mcsg to get away, but someone says one of these mean terms at you in chat and it takes you over the edge. This scenario is admittedly unlikely, but why do the staff even risk letting people abuse others through sayings that can severely damage people's mental states?

So how would making these terms bannable help, you might ask. Simply put, making these terms punnishable makes the player know that mcsg has their back. Making terms like "eZ" an offense proclaims to the players that the staff want mcsg to be a place where you can relax, a place where you can escape your problems and don't have to worry about being abused.

Main Message: Why do the staff allow abuse through terms like "rekt" when they fully know that they can damage people's mental state to a point of depression or perhaps even worse?... Why risk the health of your players when you can do something to help?

I'll admit I haven't been very nice to you ever since I heard about the pics. I have a very low regard for people do things like that, but now that I know the full story I realize how stupid I must've been to ever say anything to you and I truly apologize. You were cool to talk to before I heard about the pics too, and I honestly wish I knew it all back then so I wouldn't have done something dumb.

Lots of people... The main point of my post is that words hurt a lot of people, so why not protect the people who feel hurt instead of leaving them out to fend for themselves.

EDIT: Have you not seen all the threads lately about people complaining about the community, how they have to put up with someone saying "eZ" or "rekt" every game? It clearly effected every single one of those people who made threads enough for them to take the time to write about it.

If they get sad about someone saying "eZ" or "rekt", they're gonna have a hard life.
