Joint Statement about the future of Axel and the partnership between GWM and ICRL.

Hello, everyone. This is a joint statement between ICRL and GWM.

As we're sure most of you guys know already, some stuff has been going on with ICRL league owner Cargoboom, also known as Axel Johnsson. The person in question was found joining the Mattyvision Song Contest (or MSC)'s discord server, which is the biggest production Eurovision related broadcasted/streamed by Giorgio World Media or GWM, ICRL's old broadcaster. Once he joined the server, he posted a message which includes the N word 5 times. After he sent it, he left the server. It took just a few seconds for the MSC team to notice this and delete the message, along with banning the user and immediately messaging the GWM owner, who was quick enough to ban Axel from GWM and immediately terminate the partnership with ICRL due to those actions. The proof of the user saying the n word is attached below, those images are taken from the MSC server's mod log and authorized to be used in this statement by the server owner.

Immediately after this being done, a member of the MSC staff team, Penguin, without any consent from the GWM nor the MSC owner, decided to raid the ICRL server along with people who are not even in any of those 2 mentioned servers. This resulted in the ICRL members mass pinging Penguin and insulting them, even with the n word. All proofs about this are attached below.

We believe that the actions cargoboom and the ICRL members have done are absolutely not acceptable, and in many other servers, those actions would lead to an immediate ban of Axel from the server. Those actions have also led to some bad consequences for both groups. ICRL and RoRacing in general have been considered by some individuals as a "Racist and homophobic community", while fake news about GWM have been spread around, like the fact the owner is homophobic or that the community is toxic. The actions taken by Axel have negatively affected 2 groups whose owners are not responsible or even related to this drama. This makes the actions taken by him, along with the raid and the attack by the ICRL members, even worse and as such, Both actions will not go unpunished.

After 4 days of discussions between some members of the ICRL's and GWM's head staff team, we have concluded that Axel will be ranked back to the audience and demoted from ICRL with immediate effect. He was also banned from GWM and many of his other affiliates. We encourage other groups to do the same. About the raids, Penguin has been demoted from GWM and this is already much, MUCH MORE than enough.

About the groups, the partnership between ICRL and GWM has sadly come to an end after the actions taken by the ICRL members towards GWM members. We encourage members to stay in both servers, as both owners are not responsible for the actions run by those 2 members.

We don't want any similar situation to repeat again in any server, that's why both groups will enforce their rules, with an immediate ban to whoever says the N word or raids in any affiliated server with either ICRL or GWM.

Thank you and have a good night/rest of the day.

Best regards,

The ICRL and GWM's Head Staff teams.
