I mean, I appreciate Alonso and his dedication to BB, he devotes a lot of his time here, we need people like him in the game but..

Either:

a) Chose to represent professionally and fully embrace his role, where he is part of the staff of this game, and such he also represents the management

b) Give up on any BB role and have fun as a normal player where he can do things like this without anyone bothering him and repercussions (within BB rules).


Having Alonso always associated and embroiled in drama is detrimental to this game, and to the forum experience, I like the guy but I am tired to always have to read some new drama where he is the main piece...

It hardly seems like a reach.

All of that aside: Maybe this highlights a greater issue/need within BB itself on limitation of team names/player nicknames and such to include many things that would be in horrible taste/inappropriate. So that players don't even have this ability to begin with.

If a kid keeps stabbing themselves with a knife, at a certain point teaching the kid knife safety has no merit, and one should just not let them have the knife to begin with.

It makes it really hard for me to want to promote BuzzerBeater via the YouTube channel and X/Twitter when a CM/GM/BB (whatever Alonso's role is now) is consistently trying to ruin the BB-experience. Alonso is creating an unwelcoming, toxic, unsafe, and hateful environment for the BuzzerBeater community and new managers.

This is not the first, second, third, etc. time that Alonso has done things like this either.

The vagueness of his role is a problem as is, which this thread proves, as not all managers will even realize how much influence he has on the game under the new ownership. Alonso's role needs to be clearly denoted and communicated to the BB community and we need to see that he is being held to some sort of standard, especially when he does inexcusable things like this.


I guess most of the active managers could subscribe this message word by word. Even if we don´t consider the "nazism issue", it´s far clear that this guy, Alonso, is constantly subtracting.

It´s also hard to understand how new owners can consider mutism as a solution for all this as it shows such a bad global image, starting by lack of seriousness and a dubious organizational chart in front of a community that is already trembling with the new ownership.

The combination of "Adolf" "88" and "אדולף" is understandably deeply inappropriate.

As a member of the BB-Team, Alonso holds a position of responsibility, and it’s crucial that these concerns are addressed with transparency.

Even if the intent was to make a joke, such references are not only offensive but also hurtful. It’s important to recognize that it’s not just about intent; it’s about the impact on our community.

Personally I understand its a bad joke, in bad taste but not the end of the world. However, the immaturity and complete arrogance to keep insisting on it trying to be "edgy" by masking it is just completely unacceptable coming from someone who forms part (or say they do) of the staff.

I find it unbelievable that no one from the new ownership addresses this, so I for one will vote with the only thing they have shown to care so far... my wallet.

I for one wont renew my supporter while they keep someone in their staff that acts like a man child antagonizing the community. BB-Marco, please come forward and state what this person's role is, if they hold any, and if they do take immediate action.
