Disclaimer: This has nothing to do with the BBR-RC as I am no longer part of that committee.

Hello all, this is a thread concerning, you guessed it, M2K and his consistent immature, unprofessional, hype-killing attitude. As you all know, M2K was given a Red Card by the BBR-RC. KTAR6 was originally a Unity event, but Keitaro wanted to let M2K enter. He banned Brinstar, so the ruleset was no longer Unity, and M2K was allowed to enter. KTAR6 was this weekend, and the stream was packed with hyped matches, especially towards the end. Although most were MK dittos, those MK dittos were of the highest proficiency. M2K was sent to loser's bracket by Junebug's Lucario. Somebody told Nairo and M2K they had to play, so they started. M2K won game 1. However, they were told that they didn't play yet, there was more bracket to be played by Nairo and M2K before that match would take place. They both met up, and they had to play Nairo in Loser's Quarterfinals (Loser gets 5th place). Nairo had a strong lead, and M2K was hit off-stage. He purposely falls to his death and pulls his controller out, ranting about how unfair it was that he had to redo the set and his win didn't count. He ends up forfeiting the set to Nairo.

This isn't the first time this has happened. Oh no. He had the infamous semi-forfeit to ADHD that BANNED HIM FROM MLG DALLAS! He forfeited to Anti in Winner's Semis of KTAR5, and then in Loser's Semis to ADHD (Or the other way around, but still). He also forfeited to...Gnes? at Pound V to "focus on melee" and then forfeited to HungryBox in melee...which is...odd, to say the least. He has also forfeited/split many other times, but I don't live anywhere he has lived so I have had the fortune of not having to deal with his shenanigans. I also have lost touch with the Melee Community so I don't know if he forfeits in that game as often either.

He also pretty much imposes himself on others without warning. He forces people to take him places, forces them to house him, and pretty much mooches off of them just because he is M2K. He has also had SEVERAL "instances" of severe disrespect, such as
masturbating in somebody's bed and ****ing all over their sheets. He then left and didn't say a word about it
and
looking up porn/hentai on other's computers and masturbating to it
. He shows severe disrespect for pretty much anybody that gives him respect. Even when there is irrefutable evidence, he never owns up to his mistakes. He either blames others or pretends it never happened.

It isn't like other sports don't have issues with unsportsmanlike conduct. However, they are multi-million dollar leagues, so we can't really fine M2K 20k like most other leagues can. If we really want to be viewed as a mature community, banning M2K from events would probably help. It isn't like other gaming communities haven't banned players either. I know that Dark Prince was banned from EVO because he is very immature and trashy, and also threatened people with violence. Normally there isn't enough of an issue with players to outright ban them, but M2K, time and time again, has proven that he doesn't deserve to be in this community any longer (In my opinion, obviously. I would vote yes).


Now, you have read all the information I have to offer (Sadly, I didn't research this topic very heavily). I like Jason as a person, but as a player he is a really REALLY bad representative in our community. He is probably the most famous player in all of Super Smash Brothers history, and he is one of the least qualified people as a player (But not the caliber of his play) to be so well recognized.

Also, please don't turn this into a flame-war...

I agree with the comparison to professional sports players. Doing something offensive that makes the sport at large look bad is a one-way ticket to a fine and/or suspension.

Granted, this is difficult to enforce, but it's ridiculous how many M2K instances keep popping up.

Being the most hated


Real Talk though, its his lack of maturity, being around him is like being around a clueless child, he is 21 IIRC, but he still needs everyone else to baby him everywhere.

This is so stupid, whoever wants to allow M2K at their tournaments will do so.
But wait! Let's come together as a community and vote on how much we hate a person.

Dumb.

Oh, wait. M2K. Nah. I don't want him banned. He's kind of fun sometimes. And true, he's really weird a lot of the time too

When it comes to a point where we want to get sponsors and such. This will happen. Ultimately a person like this can hurt the community. It is not about the game or about how they play. It is about the things that become public and make the community less attractive for sponsors. Would you want to have more money in the community for better events and more worldwide appeal or just go on thinking that its ok to do things and not grow the community.

this is interesting. ive only had one encounter at a tourney with m2k and he did kinda brush of my question to get his needs met....but idk, banning a player is pretty hefty. even after G2's incident we didnt kick out the player for attempting to steal, but i do agree with the comparison to major league sports, we need to put a foot down on unprofessionalism without punisment.

I think he needs to get his life together and he won't do that unless he can't compete in smash. Manners, consideration for others, and self respect are things he severely lacks, and needs to fix these things about himself, especially since he is one of the faces of the smash community.

This should be done privately, not publicly.

You know, sort of like MLG?

Reading everyone's thoughts on how much they hate you isn't the greatest thing in the world.

At least remove the names of how people voted from the results if possible. It's obvious this entire vote will cause problems.

how many times can it be done privately before you give up? I know you are expressing your feelings but it is getting to a dangerous point.

He was picked up by a sponsors and dropped for splitting.


I wont brag about what I do for the community but I do my best to bring great events to this community I love.


Bottom line with Jason. He needs to get his life together. I think he should realize this and take a few weeks off or a month or 2.

I WILL NOT BAN HIM FROM APEX. That is something I need to make clear.

This is not an attempt to ban him from a huge event this is an attempt to help someone get their life together.

This isn't about him getting his life together, this is about trying to ban for for breaking all of BBR-RC's little rules.

unless you forgot?

btw as far as me not banning him. I want him to get his life together. I have big things happening at Apex and to be frank...Apex is more important than him...If he is just get it together no issue will happen...if he keeps going...i'd hate to be that guy but im ok with it.


He has broken rules from BBR ( which I am not apart of ) and broken many rules that ... well are of ethics




People say he is sick but HE HAS NEVER BEEN DIAGNOSED....if he was then he should be on medication

yes, ban your best player.

for the record, he forfeited brawl at Pound V to focus on melee doubles with Armada, and placed 1st.

m2k was dropped from vVv gaming for multiple reasons: he wore their shirt to tournies like once, he never contributed to their forums like he was supposed to, and the splitting issue at that thing in Las Vegas.

M2K brings hype, make no mistake; he's one of the best in the world. But if APEX is more important that him, then that should mean that you should be consequential about this. If we agree that he's more trouble than he's worth, that should damn well apply to APEX as well, no?
