You've just gotta laugh!

I really enjoy writing blogs.... After all how else an you get your point across to so many different people and have the opportunity to 'shake the tree'.

But my article "DGL does not help gaming" really showed just how set in their ways so many gamers really are.

I initially intended to start a number of articles where I look at the major role-players.

My first article was to look at what I thought were some weaknesses in the DGL.

Immediately there was a ferocious and vitriolic response from people who ran to the defence of the DGL and immediately began accusing the national body, the MSSA of being behind the article.

I feel that I must state that the MSSA had nothing to do with the article whatsoever.

Indeed, a number of the readers also immediately began to draw comparisons between the association and TELKOM's gaming interest.

Maybe that is what is really needed as it seems as though few understand the roles that all the different parties play.

Unfortunately there were some pretty bad responses, which I have chosen to rise above, but there were several who were quite rude and some that were racist!

What is clear is that there are a lot of people out there who do not respect anybody's opinion other than their own.

Readers should note that everybody has the right to say what they want to, as long as it is legal, and others do have the right to be offended, but everybody should respect other people's points of views.

There will be more articles coming up on the state of eSports in South Africa, the total lack of transformation, and why the people should demand a more indigenous approach to be taken to the MSSA, and why someone like me should be elected in December as the new MSSA president.
