  1. The fact that they continued to work with outstanding payments show how selfless their actions are and how much they love the game, if I went a single month without being paid i'd be up in arms, 7 months is inexcusable.

  2. Sounds like he did some stuffs wrong, easy to be angry at the guy. However, for me, as long as he pays the employees soon… and he does let others run the company from now on, then I personally will not hate him.

    To be honest, his apology at the end sounds genuine to me, too. I can relate too much to his comment, when he said that he "never intended to do bad, and will fuck off from the community that I loved & wronged".

    It isn't okay to do what he did to his staff and those who worked for him. He also had serious drug issues and money issues, as we can see. However, I can believe the is generally, most of the time… not a bad guy.

    As someone who is LGBTQ+ myself, I hope that he can learn to not be hateful towards us sometime soon, and realize his mistakes. I do not hate him even though he said slurs and constantly said terrible things about others like me.

    I just hope that he can get therapy, or find some other way to feel better about life. I think that if he can be more sober and get truly happy again, he can come to a place where he realizes that it isn't okay to do what he has done. Then he can live a happier life, feel better, and treat others better. He can let go of that hate towards us.

    At least, that's what I hope for him.

  3. Basically, Aminacov is commiting fraud. He is taking the employees money and selling the company, earning even more. So by selling he won't have to pay them because it's not him that owe the money, but the company.
    He is saying the money will be paid, but it won't be paid by him, as he is saying that all operations will be done by hex4MT. So he'll be keeping the money and not pay a dime. If he's able to sell the company he'll make even more money.
    The best news is that the scumbag will be leaving gaming and esports, to commit fraud elsewhere. Who knows if it will be permanent since he's done it before.
