ngl his reply to that tweet made me chuckle
It felt desperate to me, all of his replies did. I feel like he's gonna be doing whatever he can to get whatever support he can from anyone he possibly can. It'll be entertaining to see how it all pans out, lol.

This image is such a weird choice to me, especially with all of the things revolving around him. I don't understand how he thought this was an "it" thing, lol.

Doc's playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. It means he's on a different level. That's all.

People trying to relate checkers to children and chess to adults is weird.

No, I generally don’t give two shits about streamers. I’m not the targeted audience that wants to see someone else play a game.
Let alone someone who needs to put up some stupid act, or otherwise nobody would even watch.

Just my two cents about streamers in general. I know they are not all like that, but I really don’t care about looking for something/someone.

I like the Youtube vids of Asmongold from time to time. Seems to be a very straight forward guy, like myself. No bullshit and no running around the bush. I respect that. We Dutch are like that too.

I mean, I get that was his intent, but he should have seen this interpretation from a mile away. It's not remotely weird to think of checkers as a game for children compared to chess. It's been thought of that way for decades. They're played on the same game board, but checkers has considerably easier to understand rules.

Never cared about him. Just hated how at some point he was pushing the narrative that if a shooter didnt include a BR mode, that it would fail. That to me was such an awful thing to be spreading. Not every game needed a BR mode ffs.
 
He confirmed that he had inappropriate texts with a minor and although he says he wasn’t serious, what kind of asshole is doing it just for fun.

Seriously I can’t believe people who would still support him.

We knew he was gonna try a comeback. He said so himself.

Didn't think it would be this soon.

Hes lost his sponsorships and those aren't coming back. I expect he doubles down on the political angle to get a small cult of personality. That tends to be the way forward after you've screwed the pooch this bad.

Yeah I mean he no longer can use YT for a revenue stream. They cut all money for his content.

This really means he has to go to kick, and he can’t make income without YT clips and videos. I imagine YT is likely 50-70% of his income… aside from sponsored play sessions in the past. Those are now 99.99% gone.

Even if he comes back… he basically has to grift donations and subs from the cult on kick.

It’s over.

Of course. I just think it's stupid, because of course people could misinterpret it. Majority of it is just jokes or fuel for people to turn back on him.

I think it's just amusing considering the circumstances.

I ask this in this thread before but who exactly is he? Maybe I’m living under rock or something because I have no idea who that is or what he did.

He was one of the biggest streamers on Twitch, known for his unique persona and humor. He was banned from Twitch a few years back for unknown reasons. It just surface within the past month or so that he was banned because he was found innappropriately texting a minor. There was speculation as to the validity of this until he posted a tweet admitting that it was true, though he did not say whether he knew it was a minor or not. Rolling Stone then reported that he did know he was texting a minor and continued to veer into inappropriate territory. He decided on his own to take a hiatus, vowing that he would return some day.

Today is apparently that day...

That explains why I never heard of him, I don’t watch twitch.

Get off the hentai. Too much time jacking it to Chinese cartoon porn to enjoy some live grifting from simps and shills.

The only streamer worth watching is Aris aka avoidingthepuddle.

Change my mind.
Avoiding the puddle is probably the funniest dude on twitch. Plus he loves fighting games. Tekken to be specific

Last sensible dude on the site. Not corrupted by anything that gave these people brain rot.

Aging like a normal dude. 40 years old. Basically hates all modern games but a few.

Aris is a national treasure we must protect,

I kind of understand that I personally Iwatch these guys for same reason.


Yeah most things I catch from streamers now is a YT video or clip.

To sit down and watch a stream flat out? I’ve never done that. It’s usually background noise if I play game that I’m grinding like Diablo or WoW.

Yup thats just fucking boring, these videos I watch are heavily edited and most of the time not very long.

LIRIK and Aris are the only streamers I tune into. Aris above all though, lol. I couldn't agree more with everything you've said. Plus, as someone that turned 40 in March, it's nice to see someone that's level headed, funny AF, and shares a lot of the same perspectives I do.

Lirik never resonated for me.

Recently he was trying to convince people to play concord….his whole chat was shitting on him and the game lol.

Aris does a sponsored stream? It’s pretty obvious that he isn’t feeling the game and doing an ad. He makes it funny but blatant in a nice way this game is ass.
 
Now that the dust has settled a bit, I'd like to gauge what GAF thinks about Dr. Disrespect and how they would feel about the return the Doc has alluded to in his most recent X/Twitter post.

Just to put my two cents in, I am a fan of the Doc and the only way I can support him moving forward is if it had been determined that he didn't know he was texting a minor. That knowledge to me speaks to his character. I believe him when he says he's not a pedophile, however he is not really explaining his position well. While I think his statement was guided by counsel, I think there were still things he either couldn't say or maybe even forgot to say during his apology/rant post on social media.

But I'm curious as to how others think.

Feel free to comment, but I've declined to display votes publicly and participants cannot view results prior to voting themselves. I do this to prevent social conformism and to hopefully get the most honest answers.
the dust will never settle dude

The thing is he started out playing this abrasive character and he clearly still is going so to try and make this whole thing a part of the characters lore or something.

But thats the exact wrong way to approach something like this. Rhis was the time to drop the act and be genuinely apologetic and admit to his failings and maybe, MAYBE he could have salvaged at least his dignity.

But instead hes decided hes going to go with the "if you got a problem with me DMing minors about inappropriate topics as a married man with kids then you're woke"

Hes finito. He can stream all he wants but he'll never be respected or have his career back.

I hear ya, I just appreciate him for streaming often and avoiding streamer drama. So, if a new game comes out and I wanna see footage he's almost always streaming and I check it out.

I must've missed that, lmao. I honestly didn't catch anyone streaming it, lol. That sad ass game.

Yeah, it's perfect. The whole bit where he doesn't know what to do and asks n0pants what to do never, ever gets old, lol.
