Jackpot’s reaction to their outing and how they have responded to it in the following months should show people that even when their bans are up they need to be held to high scrutiny by the people they will inevitably end up playing with.
This only confirms to me even further Zuckerberg would’ve won the fight with elongated muskrat because “loving your wife” energy will always win over the most divorced man in the world
Mark Zuckerberg had a giant statue of his wife created and installed in their yard
“Bringing back the Roman tradition of making sculptures of your wife,”
similar mindset of “cancel culture got me even though I am good now :[ “. Jackpot put this scene back fucking YEARS because of their actions. Potential sponsors don’t want to touch this series when the world champions were pieces of shit.
This scene loves to claim that we are diverse and inclusive, meanwhile we are welcoming back people who made fun of minorities even before their community bans are lifted because “they’re good at the game”.
I remember tuning into Jared’s stream after the incident to unfollow him and mostly see what his chat was like, and I saw him talk about how terrible cancel culture was, and as seen with some of the screenshots of Leafiis chats from a couple months ago she obviously had a-
Leafii and Madness on the other hand were incredibly, INCREDIBLY shitty hence why their bans are longer. SS’s punishments are inconsistent and poor quality (everyone involved should have been banned for longer imo) but there was a reason these two got it the worst.
I completely understand if people want to give .q and Jared a shot if they make a comeback as a large majority of their actions were moreso covering up and defending their friends. I still think people should be very critical of Jared especially, but obv. I’m not the judge.
We need to hold people accountable. If these players were mid level or low level, they would never see this scene again because they wouldn’t be able to find anyone to play with. We should normalize being able to change, but at the same time it’s been less then a year since-
@Wavy667_
Something about the Zipcaster or Sendou getting so angry at a Splatoon reference that he tries to beat the shit out of someone is what makes this one for me
this shit went down. It’s insanely unlikely they’ve had the chance to fully grow from this shit, especially so if we are giving them a lighter slap on the wrist then the community supposedly gave them.

GOOOOOD MORNING AND HAPPY (travel) RIPTIDE DAY!! I am finally allowed to share my art for 2024’s Riptide trading card project!! Find me among the many other artists participating this year to receive a card of this fish face! 🌊🐟
I think we as a community need to shout out
@TeamInk95
for doing so much awesome shit this weekend that made the experience even better for everyone in the Splatoon scene
Not trying to start discourse but as a bigger dude the amount of fat jokes I see in the Splatoon community is insane. I’m working on losing a bit of weight, but I’m gen. comfortable and happy in my body. It kind of just sucks to be reminded that some people don’t agree with that
@lkalinen
The fact that he’s going to receive no backlash as usual for targeting someone who is struggling with their mental health because his buddies are stating “he didn’t know it was them” when he has bothered Tristan MULTIPLE times is crazy.
If y’all genuinely supported Palestine you wouldn’t be liking this shit and I know a lot of y’all played in the Palestine charity tourney. Yes we can argue that people were over reacting to Jared not knowing about the boycott but responding with shit like this is weird af
I gen. don’t understand why Splat Safety didn’t instate a temp. ban with how frequently Gem goes to LANS. Evidence or not this is a serious accusation where the safety of the community and its players should come first and foremost above all else.
Not trying to bash on Pheonix specifically here but the idea of “I bought this game and can play it however I want” isn’t inherently true for multiplayer games. You have to respect your opponents, casual or not.
This entire thing reminds me of the Nintendo creators program and look what happened to that with the proper time and care. Protest it, continue doing what you love, find loopholes. The comp. community is like cockroaches, we’ll find a way to continue on no matter what.
@radsakee
The actual definition of grouper doesn’t really make sense to the song/referencing the fact she’s getting her backup, very likely referring to groupie but with a fish pun which is insanely funny
Part 2 of my thoughts on the Community Guidelines and why we are so confident about the future of Low Ink. Also chatting with
@CCA_Splatoon
about their season and future. Popcast today at 6p est.
Riptide is a complete joke allowing a male dressed up as a women into a venue calling themself a different gender and using pronouns in front of other very young players. Riptide is one of the most woke venues in the smash community. Shame on you!
@RiptideSSB
If this is a year where you can potentially go to a LAN, PICK RIPTIDE. The venue and it’s ugly fuckass animal statues is genuinely wonderful and the vibes both from a community and competitor standpoint are so energetic and fun. There’s a reason why it’s “THE Splatoon LAN”.
Happy Valentines Day! Instead of drawing Pearlina like a sane queer person I decided to draw my friends

‘s passionate love (for the reeflux). I believe they’re playing in Sencon’s Two to Tango today as “Reeflux Yaoi” so be sure to cheer them on! 🧡🩵
Saw Leafii’s response, and my point still stands. 3 months isn’t enough time to unlearn shitty behavior, and the ramifications of her and Jackpot’s actions will be an issue for longer then all of their bans combined.
Jackpot’s reaction to their outing and how they have responded to it in the following months should show people that even when their bans are up they need to be held to high scrutiny by the people they will inevitably end up playing with.
Anyways this was the thing!! I’m banned!! I wasn’t sure if I was gonna get to this point before Riptide but I’m proud of where I’m at. I’ll talk a little more at a later point about our history and what’s next because this was crazy sudden for us 😭
Our pickup STATIC SHOCK! made top 32 in Group A of this months Low Ink! Shout out to:

Time to make the New Years shoutout thread! I’m gonna be doing my best to mention as many people as possible, but if I miss you please know that the interactions I had with you this year were still incredibly special and I’m incredibly glad I got to share that time with you!
I love how CAUTION!! Is never brought up in discussions about Div 5 because we are the type of team to take a set off of midlevels then proceeded to immediately lose to the nearest FTIU/LSL eligible team and I wouldn’t have it any other way
Anyways, reminder that this community is what you make of it. Hold people accountable, but also allow people to grow and improve themselves if they deserve the chance. Surround yourself with people who care and be kind and patient.
@linenzap
Exactly. I think people have the ability to change and unlearn bigoted behavior if they genuinely want to be a good person. With the way they responded as the situation went down on top of their recent efforts to get back into the scene before their ban is lifted it doesn’t-
@akamechimken
Shit is still an issue in low level as well, it’s so hard to make connections with people unless you have the results/experience beforehand which is obviously really difficult when you’re learning the ropes
I’m not even fucking around I’d genuinely love if someone did a video and analysis on why the Splatoon community and the games themselves are so inherently queer outside of a surface level “it has lots of customization”. Some genuine queer theory shit

I’m not really sure what to say, but thank you to everyone who cheered for us, believed in us, and commentated us. I’m so fucking grateful to captain a team full of humor and genuine passion for this game.
