Please tell me that this isn't real...

[Centurion]

I'm surprised he didn't just fight the tank with his bare hands.
This guy is horrible.

 

[SirRoscoe]

What.....was that?

 

[Solidus]

What.....was that?

The most idiotic person on YouTube.

You can't mean that. Phil's a genius compared to some of the people I've seen on there.

Well, yeah. But, honestly, I'd rank DSP up there as one of the worst ones . The guy has just has a massively inflated ego, and entitlement issues.

But, it's interesting that you brought that up. I was just thinking today about those annoying YouTube pseudo-celebrities...

 

[Jameson Rook]

Just saw it right up to the Mantis fight and I turned it off. He was just playing to insult the game and he had help guiding his miserable @$$ throughout the game!

And my God do you have to add "Okay?" to everything you say?

 

[Frank Jaeger]

only just seen this.....WOW

What a retard he should not be allowed to hold a control pad

 

[Kiva]

I watched his full mgs4, and rising play throughs as i dont think they will get made into a " how not to play " as his mgs4 play through wasnt blind, and he enjoyed Rising

 

[Frank Jaeger]

He must have learnt his lesson because those are really bad

 

[Solidus]

Well, apparently, MGS fans have collaborated and are trying to get Machinima to kick him out as their partner. Check out this video:

The guy really has problems. He has a notorious tendency of making fake accounts and arguing with people on YouTube who criticize him. There was some drama with him in the comment section of that video. It's too bad I missed it, though, as the comments for that account were removed.

 

[snappahead]

Getting him kicked from Machinima is a bit much IMO. This is his job. I get that people don't like him, but the simple solution to stop watching him. He is a nut and a douche sometimes, but there's no law against that. He's not hurting anyone..I don't care how badly he plays Metal Gear.

All things considered, I don't really think it is excessive. Besides his awful gaming videos, the guy constantly insults people who don't agree with his views, and like I said before, he likes to create fake accounts to harass. I think it'll be in Machinima's best interest to just let him go.

Plus, sitting on his butt and leaching off of YouTube views all day isn't a real job . At least if he's booted from Machinima, he'll be forced to find an actual occupation and contribute to society like everyone else.

Even if he does create fake accounts, it's not against the rules. Douche, sure...nutty definitely, but again theyre things he's doing in his own defense. I don't see it as a big deal. He produces a ton of content. Machinima is benefiting from that. He has hundreds of thousands of subs that they benefit from as well.

The way he does it, it's a job. He's playing and uploading video morning, noon and night. There's a bunch of people making a living off of YouTube videos and he's no different. It's as honest a job as any if you ask me. Whether or not it's a contribution depends on your perspective. His fans certainly think it is. I just don't believe that being annoyed with someone should be enough grounds to cost a person their livelihood. Seems very petty.

The fact he sucks at games isnt what people are bothered about. The fact he is racist and sexist in his videos as well as harassing people calling them ******* and threatening to kick peoples ***** in person is why people want him to get cut from Machinima.

So what you're saying is that he's acting like everyone else? Seriously though, I've watched plenty of his videos in the past and seen how his words are interpreted as racist of sexist, but that's usually wha it is. An interpretation. He's never shown either things outwardly in any video I've seen. Including ones where he's supposedly been so. If anything, he just tells bad jokes in poor taste. Amost everyone is guilty of that from time to time. As for calling people names and getting threats...I think they'll get over it. It is YouTube after all. If you haven't been called a name, you haven't fully experienced the site. He's just a guy posting videos. I don't think he should be held to a higher standard.

Suppose none if this matters. If people are annoyed enough with him, Machinima could decide it's not worth the trouble and dump him. That could make evyone happy, but chances are, the people who hate the guy will still seek him out so they can continue to hate him. Then I guess they'd have to petition YouTube to cancel his channels, so they're not forced to seek out his videos anymore. But then they'll have to find someone else to hate. That should be too hard though.

Are you on his Facebook page or something? . He's not acting like "everyone else". He's acting like DSP; the whiny, vindictive, YouTube personality, with entitlement issues (who can do no wrong). Those alone are legitimate reasons for why people don't like the guy. He likes to call himself the "King of Hate", but much of it isn't unwarranted, by any means.

Personally, I'm not invested into seeing this guy's disbarment from Machinima. His embarrassing playthroughs are hilarious, and provide hours of entertainment. But, if people on YouTube feel strongly enough about seeing him taken off, then I think they should go ahead.

Ive got thick skin, nothing he says is a "shocker" to me but i dont understand how anybody can defend his actions knowing how it could cause offense (and clearly has) to others. If you see crap like that happening your moral obligation isnt to say " well it happens everywhere " . its not how problems get solved by sitting back. Average joe who signs up to youtube has to obide by rules of none hate, and offensive material. Let alone a guy who gets paid and breaches his contract with near enough every video he's put out. But people dont seem to take the internet seriously because they are lured in to thinking nothing can touch them because theyre sat on their computer in their underpants while they are acting like a tough keyboard warrior. As a man and as a youtuber his character and actions suck. I could pull a list out of other lets players i watch all of which are super friendly, actually put more effort in to their videos than pointing a camera at the screen, not racist, not sexist, actually funny and dont hate on their fans.

 

[snappahead]

I'm just seeing the attempt to get rid of him as an overreaction. That's all. I don't like the dude one bit. That's why I stopped watching him. The moment I stopped watching him, he stopped being annoying. He stopped saying things that bothered me and he stopped playing games poorly. Problem solved. Taking money away from him to make my life even a tiny bit less annoying seems petty to me. That's just the way I see it. Many disagree and I get that. I'm guessing it's just a vocal minority. The complainers are always louder than the ones who are content. He's got hundreds of thousands of subs. He must be doing something for those people or they wouldn't be subbed.

I agree 100%

But if anybody ever deserved it to happen to them he is probably pretty high up the list

Probably so. He's certainly a hard person to like, but the people who do, really seem to like the guy. Why, I couldn't tell you, but there it is.
