Life does indeed come at a motherfucker at speed does it not?

Arin (female) is going to be 60 years old and still doing lets plays
this is why John got out early

>>713198347
i thought John joined mossad?

>>713198445
John suicide bombed himself into a BLM rally

>You will now remember how Egoraptor got angry at SrPelo for making the funny video about "storytime animators"

>>713197993 (OP)
i have to assume he's making good enough money even more than 10 years later so i imagine he's relatively content

>>713200265
contentedness is not happiness

>>713199272
Arin was right about Newgrounds being a horrible community.

>>713197993 (OP)
>All got into adult swim
Most of them are washed up D rate anime VAs. Next to no one from Newgrounds accomplished anything

>>713200384
i didn't say he was happy

>>713200504
There was a huge bullying mentality at Newgrounds. You can still see that in former Newground animators like Oney Plays. They disguise it as being goofy but it's just bullying.

So we're all thinking it right? Dan absolutely fucked him?

>>713199272
My favorite one was Arin going onto Charlies podcast years ago and when Charlie said something like “Let’s Plays must be easier to do than animating,” Arin got really defensive about it because he knows that screaming at games like a retard is all he’s good at anymore.

>>713200664
I thought Dan seemed more like, slightly disgusted at him.

>>713200851
Thats just because hes an israeli and Arin is a florida goyim. But it takes more than that to stop and israelite from colonizing amirite?

I really miss the pre Game Grumps Arin.

>>713200607
ok lewis

>>713197993 (OP)
He might be some kind of ludicrious onions at this point, but damn if their Sonic, Zelda CDI, and Harvester let's plays aren't quality entertainment.

Newgrounders are all hacks, only a few ever made anything of themselves. The rest are hacks.

Arin is a self made millionaire.

>>713203031
shut up faggot something something jontron.

Did I do it right?

>Arin is a total dirtbag, has shitty opinions on games and treats them like fact, no talent LPer that screams and makes funny noises and amasses millions of braindead fanatics that kiss the ground he shits on. If the LP bubble ever bursts Arin will just cash out and live comfortably for the rest of his life.

>Meanwhile people who are following their dream, the dream that Arin abandoned for easy money, work unrealistic hours, are relatively nobodies in comparison, are living in crippling poverty and all live either together or at the NG office. They will eventually fail and live the rest of their lives as burger flippers.

I fucking hate this planet.

>>713204429
Indie fags making indie metrovania of the week aren't following their dreams

I wish newground was up to modern standard. Give us some proper search function, proper filters, and i would use the site not just for nostalgia.

kinda surprising arin didn't end up trooning out despite all the signs being there
i guess miracles do happen

>>713200607
bullies always do that shit to justify abusing someone. It's the same thing as saying "it's funny" when they get called out for mistreating people

I'm scared to even google Arin because there's a rare chance I might see his wife. She scared me four years ago. I don’t want to know how bad things are now

>>713197993 (OP)

>Happy Harry is still trying to make Starbarians happen

>>713205909
>Hot Diggedy Demon is homeless and trying to make money off shitty Watch Mojo listicles
neither of these statements are true
he streams himself playing games a few times a week so he must have at least a roof over his head and doesn't upload anything else

>>713205909
>Oney is pretending to work on a video game
is he still? i thought it got quietly shelved

>>713197993 (OP)
Egoraptor did not age well

>>713206162
Didn't he stop animating because health issues

Also Oney isn't working on a game, he's just sitting on his ass playing video games just like Arin. But Arin is running multiple companies while doing it and Oney is just getting cucked.

People says Jon is doing better because his videos get million of views.
But the truth is, even if game grump is declining, Arin's videos are very low effort with barely editing and he uploads one per day, in the end, Arin is getting more views than Jon.

>>713197993 (OP)
>egraptor
Was never video games.

>>713206326
>Didn't he stop animating because health issues
i have no idea, i haven't watched anything other than his animated videos
i'm not sure what health issues would prevent animation work but not also prevent gaming
like it can't be a major hand injury because playing video games would aggravate something like that right

>>713197993 (OP)
Remember when he tried to shittalk Newgrounds and everyone came out of the woodwork to clown on him for acting like it didn't launch his career

just because they associate with psychicpebbles, doesn't mean they wok for adult swim, my guy.

Stamper and Niall killed a man in cold blood circa October 2018 and got away with it after replacing the body with a random family pet they hopped a fence to kill. Audio below comes from a recording of a pilot/test run of Niall's 2018-2019 podcast where he got blackout drunk and started talking too much about things he shouldn't. Also consider that stamper has said on numerous occasions that his dream is to run away to Africa with Niall, that his mom is a cop and would do anything to protect him, and that he has done some majorly fucked up things in his life including lamenting on twitter over implied violence/serious harm/murder

Arin and Idubz were awkward khv's until they met their gfs late in their life. Men like this cling to their first "love" hard and will reshape their entire identity to please her. If anything slightly is not okay with her, they will completely drop it no questions asked. Pussywhipped beta incels who finally got 1 singular gf in their life and cannot handle losing them.

>>713200664
I'd see it more likely to have Dan bang his ayy lmao wife

>>713208273
Does Arin suck dicks to please his wife?

>>713208273
Arin and Suzy met when they were like 14.

>>713197993 (OP)
The guy who made SMBZ is an autistic morbidly obese 40 year old furry who still lives with his mother.
Also, he's British.

>>713197993 (OP)
Only reason Psychicpebbles got successful is because he started hiding his power level after Trump was elected. Oney has no work ethic beyond making let’s plays because that required the least amount of effort compared to every other project he’s abandoned. Cory and Jeff will never release Nightmare Cops because they’re too autistic. Egoraptor was right about Newgrounds and he also has the added merit of not defending everyone’s pedo pal, >Shadman

>>713208750
I'm 35 and I still live with my parents but I'm rich

>>713205112
The only reason he doesn't is that he knows it would absolutely crater his income as a sizable portion of the audience would stop watching.

>>713209861
Zach absolutely does not hide his power level. There are multiple episodes of Smiling Friends about how being a self destructive nihilist and a slave to bad habits is wrong.

Is it just me or is there like zero overlap with Game Grumps's fanbase and other fanbases and communities? You hardly ever see people discuss Game Grumps except to shittalk Arin.

>>713197993 (OP)
AH YES, washed up animators. My favorite video game.

>>713211519
I don't think you go on tumblr or the sides of twitter where they socialize

>>713211519
its rather embarassing so they usually keep it to themselves.

>>713211459
Sure, but Smiling Friends also doesn’t have the characters discussing the great replacement theory.

>>713197993 (OP)
Egoraptor had such an insane falloff. I miss the awesome series, the turning point of modernity was when he joined that gay gameshow

>>713200504
Yep. Newgrounds was the first online "community" I was a part of. My intro to Forums/BBS posting. Man, what a bunch of faggots. Same crowd as Reddit before Reddit was a thing.

>>713208750
One of the most tragic things ever. I was a sprite animator and was a huge part of that community. SMBZ was amazing, I couldn't believe or wrap my head around the fact that Alvin was a furry when I was younger, and I tried my best to ignore it. Shouldn't be surprised he's a fat loser in the end who will NEVER EVER finish SMBZ and will NEVER EVER stop fucking crying about some new tragedy in his life that stops him from animating. It's the same fucking shit. He makes like one episode, then it's oh boohoo I got sick or I'm too poor wahhh please forgive me and give me money.

>>713200504
>>713200607
>>713205201
The problem with this mindset is akin to that American who wanted to sue or got mad over his work colleagues in the UK over banter. The work environment was fully "give what you can take" mindset but he couldn't handle it. You are the people that can't handle it and subject everyone involved as bullies because it hurts your feelings when others can openly engage in banter with one another without taking it personally. There's a fine line between this type of humor that perpetuated around newgrounds and the type of humor Arin is used to, which is fart and poop jokes which he still finds funny to this day

Sure you can complain about that environment, but it exists solely due to people being comfortable with ripping on each other and dishing it back. Arin couldn't do that because he has an infantile comprehension of what is and isn't entertaining, that's why mostly children watch gamegrumps now because they're attracted to his childish sense of humor

It actually hurts sometimes when watching gamegrumps and Dan has to withhold wincing over something embarrassing Arin says that he thinks is funny that Dan would have laughed at 40 years ago. Arin was mad because he wasn't funny enough to give what he felt like he had to take, all he had to do was speak up and tell them he couldn't handle the heat instead of getting passive aggressive about this 10+ years later, letting all that pain and frustration boil inside him till he exploded on someone who never intended to set him and his fragile ego off

>>713197993 (OP)
>All got into adult swim except Egoraptor
Huh? I can think of like 1 or 2 that fit this description, the vast majority are still toiling on the internet stuck in the past

>>713211519

>>713205328

So how long before all the staff accounts of Zach being an abusive nofapper and trying to push Smiling Friends into New Independent Fundamentalist Baptist territory start showing up? We already got one.

>>713215468
Yeah, but it’s basically on life support. You can tell they don’t even want to be there anymore—just reading the same wiki summaries and pretending it’s gameplay. At this point it’s like watching two dads with joint custody trying not to acknowledge the divorce.

>>713217004
Zach obviously ties to throw a bone to his old mentor who is too autistic to make anything on his own, good for him desu.

>>713216305
bowlbo getting rejected was some karmic retribution

>>713197993 (OP)
I always hated Egoraptor since the earliest days and cringed when he was posted

>>713216305
Yeah Zach props him up big time and obviously gives him some pity work on the show, though to be fair Arin does the same for Dan but on a smaller scale. If it wasn't for Arin Dan would still be working shitty minimum wage jobs at age almost 50.

metal gear awesome was the peak of the internet

>>713201143
Man what went wrong over the years ? He's so like sincere here. He doesn't make retarded poop jokes

>>713204869
Punch Punch Forever is pure fucking KINO.
Sex with Mama and Nono.

As someone privy to forbidden knowledge, it's sort of funny that Egoraptor sort of became a burn out slop youtuber and minor voiceactor on rick and morty, considering his deep paralyzing terror of becoming Chrischan that started when spazkid first showed him it in 2007.
Not that I'm happy that this is his fate, but still.

I thought Mike Stoklasa already was the bisexual Mike Stoklasa.

when will Arin officially come out and take her hormones?
when she's like 60?

>>713218369
Rejected from what?

How the fuck do arin and dan afford to make game grumps when their videos do like 100k-200k a day? I know they release videos daily but that shit is pennies especially since content creators make much less than over a decade ago. I doubt they make much money from merch anymore too and they dont have successful streams. What the fuck do they do for money

PUT A HOLE IN THAT NIGGER

>>713221871
Most of the metrics leaking out about how much youtubers make are way lower than they actually make.

>>713221871
They shill a lot of brands in sponsored ads but I don't think just that can keep them afloat. I have no idea how they do it either, Arin hires way too many fuckers that he has to pay and has a lavish rented office for a let's play channel you could do in your bedroom for free. His overhead has always been ridiculous

>>713222295
only thing i can think of is that arin and dan made so much fucking money from game grumps a decade ago they are just coasting by saving whatever they can with the millions they made but i feel like they have to be losing a lot of money

they even live in LA for fucks sake. Idk how they coast by so easily when they make less than someone who makes 80k a year from game grumps

People can goof on Arin all they please, but nobody from NG is a bigger example of career self-sabotage than Max Gilardi. He was arguably one of the best animators on the site in terms of raw talent, and he could easily be where the Smiling Friends guys are now, but he has probably the most insufferable personality imaginable. Everything that's gone wrong in his life has been entirely his fault, and now he has to live with that failure around his neck forever.

>>713222909
I like Max Gilardi

>>713200607
Nah, a better example would be Sleepycast. And it wasn't always straight bullying more than it was hazing, with the older guys there was a community wide understanding that if you put your shit out there you just had to take the actual criticisms on the chin, ignore the cliquey know it all fucks, and have a spine against the obvious haters

>>713223148
>RAID SHADOWLEGENDS

>>713222909
He definitely had talent as an animator, but the whole edgy cartoon thing was getting old

>>713223148

People had thicker skin back then. It wasn't "bullying", it was just banter among young people.

>>713212045
I've been tempted for a long time to archive all the sleepycast podcasts because I'm worried eventually one of them is going to remember that there are several completely uncensored n-word drops in a couple of them, I believe once with zack saying it himself, and they'll delete them to protect their current careers

Didn't he work on that cuphead show? It's kind of shocking he can get any industry work when he made a cartoon about dead niggers

>He's unironically doing "I tried X Y (So you don't have to)" videos these days
God damn that is painfully grim. Although he's been a pretty obvious slave to the formula for ages now I suppose.

is stamper still breaking into random houses for his cooking show or did he finally overdose

>>713225201
>Didn't he work on that cuphead show?
No. His sole industry work is doing storyboards for 1 episode of Spongebob a few years ago.

Newgrounds was and will probably always be special to me and beloved. Even though it was always awful.
Ironically enough not too dissimilar from 4chan in that fashion despite the sites being so different from one another. But I still love this place and I'm here forever granted this place remains.

But Newgrounds has got to have been the most e-penis and clout driven community I've ever interacted with or been part of ever.
And no matter all the genuinely awesome and cool stuff about Newgrounds, that kind of environment makes every other thing a pissing contest. Either directly, indirectly, or implicitly. And that just breeds pettiness and or drama.
It attracts and promotes some really awful traits in people too.

I remember him trying really hard to be edgy and "bad" in some brony panel with Arin acting like the good guy.
also he and Spazkid fighting over Wacky Game Jokes.
It seems the guy was suffering from terrible depression, and his bad temper + he acting like Mickey the Dick in real life caused him to burn a lot of bridges.
I feel bad for him, it must be horrible to have such good animation talent and have your most recognizable work be a edgy brony parody

Whites legally killed people over insults for centuries before they had any sense to outlaw it. Also the term "thems fighting words" comes from whites. Yes, words have merited violence for ages until of course, you pussies showed up and try to intellectualize your cowardice.

Because he stopped being an animator, dude was farming out to koreans since before Jon fucked off of Game Grumps.

No he went back to his own channel and did more old style game review videos with funny skits and junk, then he completely fucked everything up by accepting a contract with Youtube to create original web content for Youtube Red (they call it Premium now), which is why his subscribers only saw 1 video a year because nobody is retarded enough to actually pay for that shit. That's why Jon suddenly got a filming studio and camera crew in his employment, he needed to produce shit that wasn't just him and his birds fucking around with photoshop effects AND it's also why he can't show video game stuff anymore.
