I'm not sure what you think esports is, but this isn't exactly a career business. People at the top of the heap who make "money" on it are still working full time jobs 99% of the time (most of our staff work full time as it is). This isn't some unpaid internship for a greedy corporation that values people at zero. It's a passion project. I'm not in esports to make money (I don't make any). I'm in esports because I love it, and I love the idea of making this a place where someday there is money in it. You don't have a clue what you're talking about if you think we're doing anyone a disservice. I make no false pretenses. You do this because you love it, and you get back what you put in. There's no more honest treatment around. If you're active you get to go to events; you get to meet players and have the fun feeling of being a scene "insider"; and you can hone whatever skill it is you have in the process. Every cent our site makes goes back into sending people to live events and improving the site. Nobody takes a salary. If all you care about as an "employer" is how much money someone is making, then you're a fool yourself. The people I work with do amazing things on a daily basis because they love the game and they love esports. These are the people you want on your side in a fight. They do hard work for the right reasons. So when you do hand them that paycheck, it's not the only thing keeping the wheels on track.
