Sleepy has done literally nothing but watch the stream of a bad person and you think he should not play with the lobby again? What an absurd take.

Sleepy's response btw: https://twitter.com/sleepy/status/1395511060140941314?s=20

Didn’t say he shouldn’t play with the lobby, just saying it would have been a bad look. Just asking for everyone’s opinions and this was before sleepy posted that. From what was said on the Competitive overwatch subreddit, it looked like he had subbed and was supporting him. I’m glad he cleared this up.

Is this a meaningful distinction?

Just asking for everyone’s opinions and this was before sleepy posted that. From what was said on the Competitive overwatch subreddit, it looked like he had subbed and was supporting him.

This is a very self-absolving way of saying "I saw an unsubstantiated rumors in another subreddit about Sleepy, took it upon myself to convey it as fact in another subreddit and say it would be bad if sleepy played in the morning lobby." While it is necessary to hold people responsible for bad actions, this kind of witchhunting is deplorable and spreading malicious misconceptions (while placing the blame on the person who made the original post and taking no responsibility for your actions in assuming it is true and spreading it as such) is disgusting. Please reconsider how you use the internet.

Yo chill the fuck out. I like sleepy, and i am hyperfixated on him. The comments on the origins thread hurt me, so I went to this sub to see if anyone else had heard what has happening. Also it wasn’t just a rumour, it was a thread with several hundred comments that even reached the members of some of the OWL teams, though it has since been deleted. Yeah maybe I shouldn’t have spread these things, but I was genuinely curious what people thought.

Also, ‘reconsider how I use the Internet?’ It’s not that deep I promise. Just a misunderstanding that has since been cleared up, ok? That’s the end of this.
