Flamingo Controversy

Date: October 11th, 2020

The day of Flamingo's first video on Outlaster, there was a few notable players on the list. The players in question are Sami (BlueFireWave) and Eli (Elegant_Eli). Commenters have accused them of cheating via being on a voice chat, which is considered legal in Outlaster, while not accepted by Flamingo fans. Flamingo has since posted a comment to not send hate to others, thanks to Rawblocky contacting Flamingo to do so. Since then, Aeries (DullLurge) has contacted Sami and has found the rumors to be FALSE.

In terms of damage, a user named Connor_Costello received a community guideline strike for defending the two accused by what he claimed to be "toxic 8-10 year olds".

The video was eventually privated due to the hate on Sami and Eli going out of control, even when Flamingo posted a comment that you shouldn't send hate.

Moral of the Story
Do not hate on others. Just because they played the game the way they wanted does NOT give you the right to hate on them. I (DullLurge), know them and it's clear they have never been cheating in the game. I have seen them play in testings of the game and they were friendly and VERY competitive. Just don't bully. It's not worth it. They also may be going through tough times, so don't try to add more problems they have to deal with on top of that.

Also, children can be VERY dumb. Make sure you don't get too mad over the comments of one child, because they won't know the consequences of what they say OR how it can affect someone's life.
