One of the most public allegations made against Larson, which two people Polygon spoke to corroborated, was comments he made about a woman named Rachel. Skiddler, a popular streamer who confronted Larson about his behavior, issued a statement about the incident.

“He had sat down next to her, and repeatedly commented on her breasts, and how attractive they were,” Skiddler wrote. “She made it clear to Gross Gore that she was uncomfortable, however, he continued not only making comments, but fetched multiple people whom he was with to validate his opinion on her breasts. Rachel approached me shortly after, distraught, and left the hotel.”

The two reportedly got into an altercation after Skiddler approached Larson over the comments.

“I’m going to be really realistic,” Larson said. “And I mean no offense to the woman, no disrespect. But the woman, she was wearing a really, really, really revealing top, and that’s great, we live in 2018, you can wear whatever you want. But people have to understand that if you’re going to wear something so revealing, people will comment on it. That’s life. If I drove around in a Ferrari, then people would comment on the Ferrari. That’s just the way people are.

excuse my language but FUCK grossgore.

creepy creepy creep creep creep.

men and women of the world; buying someone a drink doesnt mean you're entitled to anything at all



this isnt the first time he's caused a scene at a public event.
when i went to league of legends worlds in london he got kicked out of the Hilton where all the staff/players were staying for harrassing them at the after party.

edit: i just read this bit “I’m going to be really realistic,” Larson said. “And I mean no offense to the woman, no disrespect. But the woman, she was wearing a really, really, really revealing top, and that’s great, we live in 2018, you can wear whatever you want. But people have to understand that if you’re going to wear something so revealing, people will comment on it. That’s life. If I drove around in a Ferrari, then people would comment on the Ferrari.

i want to go punch him in the face

If you are publicly accused of harassment:

Lesson number 1)
Don't try to use the "she was wearing revealing clothes" card. Doesn't work in 2018. You could as well just paint the word "guilty" on your face.

Lesson number 2)
Man up and apologise. Say what you did was wrong and it was your own fault.

Lesson number 3)
Get professional help if you can't change your behaviour yourself.

Wow, so he really showed himself.  What a slimeball.  I'm proud of Jagex for their reaction to it.

This is the only thing I'll say on this topic because I for one am sick of GG's drama every 3 months whether it's RS related or League or Twitch ect..

Everyone above has said all the right things that I agree with, with all this probably being true what turns my stomach is that he's already in a relationship. Has a kid and a loving GF who's taking care of his daughter whilst he's out commenting on a ladies melon's? I'm glad the lady in question turned him down and walked away because who knows how far he would've got with her if she was even slightly interested. Bleh.
