It displays an inherent misunderstanding of what eSports IS. eSports isn't the result of a lack of a social life and hey presto you're an eSports legend. Its the result of, at the top levels, 8-12 hour work days in purpose outfitted facilities, where daily distractions are removed as much as possible for the betterment of the practice environment, spent doing analysis, practicing, and adhering to a schedule formed around the furtherment of the skill level of the player, with strict self-discipline and continuous goal setting. Reducing it to some sort of ridiculous farce originated by some anonymous ill-defined group of miscreants is a total failure of recognition of what these people are actually doing in order to be where they are.
