What happened to your esports wsb event that definitely was totally not a scam?

I added context to another post here but you can also find WSB's reaction to Jartek being banned with a lot of addition context here

Jartek did not actually create WSB as far as I'm aware.

He just claims he did because he was an early mod. The actual origins are shady, but either way, he had literally zero effect on the subreddits culture. He did however try to turn it into his own monetization vector with books, courses, ad space, and tried to start an esports league.

There was essentially a coup, and he took it over entirely. He created his own discord server, replaced the mascot with a horribly ugly bald baby, and then tried to heavily monetize it. His discord was a shit show. He was selling investing courses, selling significant ad space, partnering with people, claiming he was the sole authority and brains behind WSB. Basically like someone claiming they are the CEO of anonymous or some shit like that.

He one day made a post in the discord about wanting to rent a stadium and create an esport.

He had some shady "partners". This entire thing, and Jarteks entire persona and claim to WSB is just one giant grift.

He is absolutely hated in the community and I'm glad he was banned from it. Guys a loser.
