===Racism===
 
In the TF2 community, Tagg has seen as well as experienced much racism, which is evident to his quitting. Although a wiki is not the place for much controversy, Tagg has stated he experienced much stress, and this led to him cutting all involvement with the competitive TF2 events. Do not believe it is only racism, despite looking to many like it is a big factor. Keep note, this writing comes from what Tagg from two months ago states.
