Dude really got into the industry through nepotism in Cybersecurity that amounted to "email the people in our company some phishing nonsense to ensure our employees aren't retarded fucks." He succeeded in getting old goobers to click, then he thought he was both a manipulation master and hacker extraordinaire.

For most people, it's just a funny lolcow story. Guy with an ego the size of planet was revealed to be a nepobaby that lied about almost every personal achievement he's ever claimed. He also has a habit of claiming others to be grifters despite being one himself on multiple levels. The only reason reason there's even a story to follow is because he keeps doubling down past to the point that he looks like a lunatic.

What exactly was this retarded furfag expecting to gain from taking such a contrarian and unpopular stance? The company he worked with threw his ass out so it wasn't about his industry nepotism.

No because there was never anything to win
You're not going to get access to some company's property just because they don't use it any more/went out of business. It doesn't work like that anywhere else in the world, it doesn't work here.
It is and always has been just ewhoring and attention grabbing. 'Stop Killing Games' is akin to 'No Child Left Behind', a title that is supposed to make you side with it initially just based on that title alone and nothing to do with substance or detail because you inherently put what you want out of the title into the debate no matter the context or what's actually being asked.
>>715333327 >You're not going to get access to some company's property just because they don't use it any more/went out of business. It doesn't work like that anywhere else in the world, it doesn't work here.
When a company sells something, anon, it is no longer their property. The sale is a transfer of owenership.
Videogames worked just fine for 40 years or more under this principle. It's only in recent years that your corporate masters have tried to frame purchase of goods as a ticket to the themepark. I'm sorry but it doesn't work like that. You're selling products that people have rights to retain. Even digital assets conform to rights of ownership.
Of course, if you would like to recategorize videogames as services, then I'm sure consumers would welcome you falling in line with current regulations on services such as being upfront about when access to the service will end, and of course removing all in-game purchases of digital assets since you cannot provide for them to be retained by the customer.
Honestly: Jason self destructing over WoW and animal well and that streamer meme game opened the path. The public was already very receptive to hate on him.
The SKG initiative gave everyone in a first world country the option to click a "pirateSoftware gets owned" button at the best possible time, accompanied with a very well made, genuine and good faith video that convinced everyone to click that button even harder.
Literally the perfect storm for such a campaign.

Then you do get what being a furry means.
They are people who are attracted to (usually) anthropomorphic animal characters. Although plenty of them are attracted to non-anthropomorphic characters, or even just actual animals.
They've tried to save their public image in the last decade or so by claiming its all about an art style and just enjoying these types of characters, but don't let them lie to you.
It's a sex thing. They have multiple websites with literally millions of images of it being sex thing.
They're very open about it because it's extremely LGBT adjacent and they have at various times tried with the whole public acceptance thing.
Jason Hall's "fursona" (furry persona) is a ferret. He also owns a ferret rescue in real life. Don't worry about it I guess.
>>715336231
Right, but I'm pretty sure I've heard burgers refer to it as school. Like they talk about an assignment and they'll call it "school work" or something
>>715336545
I hear about "Night Media" like it's the fucking boogeyman. Any time some schizo wants to bitch about e-celebs they always talk about the being with Night Media without evidence.
I remember when people were saying Mr Beast is with Night Media even though he owns his own fucking company and doesn't need a talent agency.
In future can you schizos post hard proof about this shit instead of hoping people will just take your word and join your cult?

If you make a habit of it nobody will really mind (so long as you're not also blowing their phone up to shit with 20 messages per thought). Just give breathing room as needed, keeping in mind that people have lives outside of immediate back and forths in conversation, and keep the "hello are you there? did you end up busy? oh did you fall asleep?" etc shit to a minimum. It's harmless in very small doses but it's cringy and grating to constantly check in on someone, at the very least before you have a dynamic that justifies it.

He's publishing/co-publushing(I forget which) a game that would be affected by SKG so he has a vested financial interest in killing it. Which is hilarious for 2 reasons
1. The game is already out and the initiative explicitly won't be retroactive so his game wouldn't even be affected.
2. The devs for said game have already come out in support of SKG and have been actively supporting being able to play the game and it's prequel even if the company should go under and the servers shut off and have actively taken steps to do so.

>>715338307
Yeah, you're not going to try and turn this into an argument about what games do and do not get to be permanent purchases anon.
When someone buys a game, they have the right to keep what they purchased, no matter how mad that makes you and no matter what you think of the studio behind it. That's all there is to it.
>>715338631 >if you are dumb enough to buy ubislop or eashit you should be coddled

reminding once is alright if you don't instantly go "YOU HATE ME WAAAH" since the average socially active girl has like 10-50 active notifications at all time so it's common they sometimes either wait for a certain time to work through them or they just forgot to reply in the stress.
Don't let your insecurity seep through too quickly and try to adapt a way of texting where it doesn't seem like you're constantly waiting for her replies, even though you are: Waiting a bit to reply when you get a delayed response and only replying quickly if you have an active conversation going on. Also being the one to end the conversation sometimes to leave her waiting a bit instead of keeping babbling until she always pulls the stop

>>715331517 >See reddit activism >Call it retarded >Get engagement from seething slacktivists.
I am gonna laugh myself into early grave when SKG succeeds and it will result in the gaming industry getting worse because there is a difference between what activists want and what governing body (in this case, EU) will enact.
Like the Istanbul convention, which, on paper, is against domestic violence, but results in, pretty much, every group being dunked on EXCEPT the one most likely to throw acid in your face for not covering it with burka as a result of some sort of honor killing.
Truly, "raising awareness" is one of the most retarded things people have come up with it 21-st century.

Another is because his team are all 'equals' like a pirate ship splitting the booty.
He also said because he views hackers as also pirates.

This is Ross's karmic debt from an internet career of being a genuinely good person coming to proper fruition. In the same moment, Jason's karmic debt of being a lying piece of shit comes around and he has to pay the piper. I hope Ross is legitimately remembered in video game history for his efforts for games preservation, because that's a legacy he'd want (not that he seems to want to do this for fame, it'd just be fitting for his efforts). And I hope Jason is just forgotten, because that's what he'd want least.

Honestly, a Blizzard neppybabby talking about the industry in today's market? Was all ready on shaky grounds to begin with.
They figured out how to game the youtube algorithm. They had bite-sized shorts that were succinctly 'quippy' and digestible for the random nerd just short scrolling. But the moment viewers do any kind digging? The moment he has to go in depth about his actual experience, or says something off-kilter, then doesn't react well to how its taken. That personable facade as a dependable source of opinion starts to crack.
It was almost inevitable that he would slip up.
He just took aim at the wrong (re: very publicized) fuel to compound his own powder keg with. How he choose to respond to the resulting trash fire hasn't helped.
He tried to handwave it away, in his mind. But to the world, it came off as passive aggressive, βdoubling downβ on a bad hot-take.
And the world of chat loves to warm their hands by a good trash fire, when they can.
Getting divorced by your wife while sexting gay furry+logs is the icing on top.

Autists > Narcissists/Psychopaths > Normalfags > Autists
It's the Roshambo of human interaction. He's able to speak with authority about bullshit he knows nothing about and never backs down, only doubles down, because he's a narcissistic egomaniac. And that can easily swindle normies that don't know any better into believing him. They take the mask he presents as sincerity because he's a literal mutant that is designed to project a false persona. Some normies will have their survival instincts kick in and get a "bad vibe" from him. Most autists are more resistant to propaganda/marketing (for that is what it is) and won't be cowed in as easily (though some are susceptible).
Like most narcissists, it just takes enough people speaking up and noticing to connect the dots, expose him, and cause his entire social network to collapse around him like the fragile house of cards built upon a sandy bed of lies that it is. I've anecdotally seen it happen multiple times IRL with friend groups collapsing because it turned out our guildmaster was actually a narcissistic psycho that tried to drive his ex-girlfriend to kill herself, embezzled guild funds to pay for ERP hookers, and other retarded bullshit that nobody really connected because a narcissist is hard-wired to be good at lying and bluffing.
How could the petition backfire?
I want some brainstorming done.
I guess you could have a large segment of the civilized world suddenly require ALL online games to have invasive Pornhub age verification systems, tied to dumb AAA-produced battlepasses made by EA India.
But most of the ways entail those types of games get banned, or stop getting made due to restrictive regulation.
>>715344641
Yeah bro the fact that it won't change anything is actually changing everything if you think about it. Let's post some more smug anime reaction images lmao
>>715344641
The worst outcome I can think of that remains feasible is that the legislation comes out so weak that the only change publishers need to do is include a disclaimer in the purchase agreement that "support for this game will last for a minimum of one month after launch, after which it may be discontinued at any time", effectively changing nothing
If corpo shills in the EU manage to steer the issue from 'this is a problem with goods preservation' to 'this is a problem with making informed purchases' I can imagine it going this route
Otherwise - I don't know, cloud gaming might get a bit complicated? But who gives a fuck

tl;dr Jason was in a gay furry relationship with some 19 year old undergrad, an age gap of 10+ years. But that's not the important part here, it's that Jason was married to another gay furry the entire time he was a courting this younger man. When Lyric found out about this, Jason doxxed him, lied to the school about Lyric cheating in his classes, and used his internet audience to continue harassing Lyric until he was forcibly dropped out.
>>715345459
Nah he was married to a woman while he was erping about knots with a 19 year old, Jason also didn't consider this cheating but malded when the 19 year old was erping with others on the side
>>715338541 >He's publishing/co-publushing(I forget which) a game that would be affected by SKG
He made a shitty Undertale knockoff in gamemaker using pre-made assets, which still hasn't been finished but can maintain its Early Access status because Jason submits like 2 line changes every month. The """""""""""reason""""""""""" this game would be affected is because Jason used his master hackpowers to implement DRM in this single-player unfinished game, and he doesn't want SKG to make him remove such a complicated piece of coding art. It's a single line sanity check to see if Steam's achievement services are running. Which can be dummied out by opening up notepad and changing the value to 1 manually.
the ironic thing about these memes is that ross very vocally does not give a fuck about piratesoftware and probably hates that people are making them. once his hairline goes all the way back he'll have finished his transformation into lenin.
>>715345852
The achievement 'DRM' is for his other game, his undertale clone just uses the steam DRM and checks if you're using a steam emulator from goldberg or IGGGAMES which is extremely easy to bypass
>>715345852
He's retarded and a liar so of course his DRM is a joke. The trick is to add so many hidden checks nobody is going to waste going through all of them aka the Denuvo way.

This is weird as fuck, people should not be allowed to take care of vulnerable creatures they are sexually attracted to, especially if they are some degenerate gay retard.
>>715347450
It read that they will have to make a statement on it in six months, not acting on it is a bad look but that's merely it. EU fucking with the tech giants is kind of on the agenda.

I didn't get it either I thought his arms were normal? Smaller than mine with less definition, and I always feel self-conscious about how I look.
People keep chimping out about this Night Media thing, but what the fuck do they actually do? Because they clearly haven't been advising him on how not to nuke his reputation.
>>715349031 >Assmonbald is bumbuddies with the other roach
When you realize that the whole thing is playing out like a very cheap wrestling storybeat it's hard not to laugh.
>>715348735
The fact that he lied about EVERYTHING in that game, was just wild. The "groundhog" puzzle was fucking retarded, no one would guess from just looking at it that it's a groundhog. And then the bit where he figures out the map without even having all the pieces of it.
Like I know he's a narcissist, but the ego on this man is unbelievable
>>715348573
I know a guy who retired out of the air force and now works in cyber security making six figures. He knows literally nothing about ''''hacking''' and in his words his entire ''''job'''' is getting security updates from Microsoft
>>715349382 >no one would guess from just looking at it that it's a groundhog.
that's not true. I mean it looks like a groundhog. But most people don't know what a groundhog looks like. ALSO, the MOST important thing about him and that puzzle is that he called it a fucking wombat earlier then arbitrarily switched to groundhog when it was time to solve it (because the guide got posted that day).
It's just like Tunic w here he says he's going to the "Golden Path" when you don't even know it's called the Golden Path until you're fucking there.
>>715346696
It's something he did to himself.
He didn't need to constantly do several things, like: >showing you have a giant ego >giving the impression to be narcissist >showing how arrogant you are >showing yourself as a fraud, and a nepo-hire >lying on everything, doubling down when caugth >showing that you are the perfect example of a Dunning-Kruger effect >gaslighting others into thinking he is the victim
>>715341279
Most of these modern well known youtubers like Pirate, Asmongold or Ishowspeed get help from all kinds of companies to get their career going
>>715350049
Asmon's path to eceleb is one of the more natural ones though. He just fucking grinded and made an audience (at the sake of being a human).
>>715346696
He wouldn't be in this mess if he didn't lie about every aspect of his life and didn't do a bunch of horrible shit others, both human and animal.
It's good you posted Jontron because he also landed in hot water for talking about how much he hates beaners, yet he never got fucked up like this Jason guy is now because Jontron doesn't have a million skeletons in his closet. He somehow has less skeletons than Egoraptor does.
>>715330272
Definitely some kind of toxic codependent relationship, narcissists are inherently unable to have healthy and normal relationship dynamics due to their nature.
>>715350049
Listen to Asmon talk about any subject that you yourself have extensive knowledge on, you'll come to the realisation of how little knowledge he has. However, he's been trained well in phycological manipulation and nudge tactics from Night Media, which translates into being verbally savvy but when you listen to what he says, past his verbal manipulation he really doesn't know that much of what he's talking about.
Take for instance when he replies to a comment and he'll give neither an affirmation, confirmation or denial, it's a slick tactic.
He's deflecting to avoid a direct response, using a vague or noncommittal statement to sidestep the question or issue without providing a clear stance. Which is all part of his psychological manipulation training to make him appear to be agreeing with you, and in kind you think he's more relatable while in reality he's not agreeing or taking a firm stance. He stands for nothing but himself.
>>715350541 >However, he's been trained well in phycological manipulation and nudge tactics from Night Media,
yeah man, I bet. The huge conspiracy of Night Media is why Asmon gives pseudo-intellectual contrarian clickbait responses instead of it just being his own obnoxious perma-20-and-very-smart personality.
>>715350764
Yes Asmon, correct. Your own behaviour and verbiage has been studied before you were signed with Night Media and after. It's also how they trained Thor/ PirateSoftware as NightMedia have a Streamer programme and mentorship where they spend over month coaching their newly signed 'partners' on how to interact and 'perform'.
>>715336660 >I remember when people were saying Mr Beast is with Night Media even though he owns his own fucking company and doesn't need a talent agency.

>>715336545
I'm looking for proof of this and can't find it. If he is it would explain why yet another boring, retarded nerd is botted into the stratosphere
Love watching this guys career disintegrate in real time just because he can't stop lying about pointless shit. Pathological liars are such an enigma to me, what compels them to lie about stuff that quite literally nobody cares about.
>>715351308
Asmongold has exactly the same attitude as this stupid gay furry, he's a know it all retard who talks endlessly about topics he does not understand, asmon isn't approaching anything from the standpoint of hey I don't know what the fuck I'm saying and I'm just putting out an opinion, he's constantly giving gay, dramatic sermons to his fatherless npc audience and the only reason he hasn't been torn a new asshole like pirate software is he immediately backs down when he senses his opinion conflicts too harshly with his audience.
>>715351308 >Common sense among leftists became an abomination
On all subjects except Immigration Asmongold is a Leftist. >He simply comments about what he watches and he is real about it
That would be an incorrect summation of the methodology he uses, a lot of the subjects he 'reacts' to cover technical aspects or require foundational knowledge in a subject area of which he does not have so he covers those gaps in his knowledge with a nostalgia anecdote is a manipulation tactic (it clearly works) that is used to build rapport, build empathy, to simplify concepts or to humanize a subject however it does not translate into knowledge, what it does however in the listener that is you, is imply that he knows while.
Again, this is a savvy person who is well versed in manipulation tactics and control his verbal i.q. is impressive but his technical limitations are very apparent if you are aware of the manipulation he is employing.

The issue in South Africa, he has many times reacted to that issue and said that Whites should leave and it isn't their homeland. That it's the land of the Africans e.t.c.
His gap in knowledge here exposes him. It was the Boers who settled South Africa first, it was the Boers before the Zulus who made that land fertile and rich. But Asmon because he does not have that knowledge, used his own anecdotal situation in the U.S. immigration system to explain the situation in South Africa.
Which was an incompatible comparison.
He viewed the situation through the lens of U.S. racial relations and tried to advocate the White South Africans act according to his own perceived racial lens.
>>715351891
You're describing standard human behaviour as if he was trained by the CIA to manipulate people. Asmongold is a blowhard weasel, the same as every normal human with average intelligence who has a desire to pontificate on shit they barely understand, the ability to not embarrass yourself is the result of years and years of streaming and talking to people while recieving real time feedback.
>>715352181
If he were free to admit it he would be in support of remigration throughout Europe, people who hold that stance on immigration are only being logically consistent when they call for Europeans to leave South Africa.

And nothing will come of it. I'll say it again, you and every other Redditor that astroturfs here will forget this was even a thing by Halloween.
>>715347426
Kinda. The difference is that the game is now rigged where if you aren't part of one of them you will never be allowed to get popular. All the popular "creators" and "influencers" on the Internet are now astroturfed except for the few that legitimately got popular on their own before the shit started e.g. AVGN. One example of this is how Twitter faked the trending section. Before Elon bought Twitter, the top trends in Japan were BLM, KPop, and other dumb nonsense. When Elon disabled the "curation" the actual Japan top 10 was Japanese idles, news and anime because of course it was. Most of the Internet is fake and social media has become a reprogramming experiment.
I don't give a shit about this retarded movement, but someone please explain to me why thinking getting the government involved with vidya is a good idea?
>>715356253
Why do you think companies can't sell you poisoned food or broken cars? Do you think the angels come from the heavens to smite monopolies selling you defective products? No, its the fucking governments.
>>715356253 >>715356320
The government is already involved, I don't know why you retards think they're not. What because a gay furry with a deep voice told you they're not?
They are involved and the current laws favor companies over consumers. Someone please explain to me why you shills only seem to think the legislative system is only a danger when consumers try to use it to benefit them, but you say nothing when corporations do it.
This whole thing is starting to feel like Sarkeesian 2.0.
You all say itβs about ethics or accountability or consumer advocacy, but at the end of the day, itβs just another excuse to dogpile someone you donβt like. First it was βhe hates Stop Killing Games,β then itβs βhe cheated at Animal Well,β now itβs βheβs a furry and cried one timeβ? Youβre not fighting for a cause. Youβre flailing for reasons to justify being cruel.
Same exact tactics:
Take clips out of context
Spin every emotional reaction into βproofβ
Invent some sinister hidden agenda
Make harassment sound like activism
Anita said games affected people and got doxxed for a decade. Jason said review bombing doesn't fix anything and now you want him to disappear from the internet. Only difference is the side of the aisle doing the screaming.
You turned SKG, which started as a genuinely good idea into yet another purity test. If youβre not 100% aligned with the mob, youβre evil. If you disagree publicly, youβre a grifter. If you try to defend yourself, itβs βcope.β This isnβt consumer advocacy. Itβs just GamerGate with a new coat of paint.
Jason never shut down a game server. He didnβt scam anyone. He didnβt mistreat his team. He spoke up about bad-faith actors weaponizing SKG and now youβre trying to erase his whole career. What the hell is that?
Youβve taken a movement about preserving games and turned it into a harassment campaign to destroy developers.
Congrats, youβve become the thing you claimed to fight.
>>715356453
Super Nintendo games had more sophisticated anti-piracy. Genius master programmer didn't even put a checksum or hidden checks in his homemade Dewey Decimal System.
What exactly are you hoping to accomplish? You think you're the main character in some crusade? "We bullied the guy who streamed Unity tutorials and pixel art for five years because he said review bombing is dumb." Congrats bro, real noble.
Youβre not exposing corruption. Youβre just mad the dev cried on Twitch and didnβt bow to your fake internet justice committee. If his reputationβs "destroyed," why are you still here screaming at the ashes? Move on.
Heβs still live. Still making games. Still shipping updates. Youβre still doomposting on a Friday afternoon, begging for someone to validate your Redditor justice boner.

Old games actually used to be pretty creative, PS1 games were burned to the CD in a way that a normal CD burner couldn't replicate to stop direct copying but could be defeated by having a legit PS1 disc do the startup then quick swapping in a burned CD at a certain point
>someone has fair, light criticism about Stop Killing Games >"Nooo you don't understand the proposal, it's not X, it's Y" >another person criticizes Y >"Sigh... People still don't understand the proposal is not about Y, but actually about X?"
I'm fucking done with this stupid subject. It is impossible to say anything negative about it because Stop Killing Games is like the holy spirit: it's nowhere, and at the same time everywhere. It's about nothing, and at the same time everything. No matter what you criticize, it'll always be "wrong" because it is actually about whatever point you did not criticize; and this point will oportunistically change once the next person says they disagree.
Fuck everyone involved with this. Bunch of dishonest vulture clowns turning this into another Gamergate
Games are not physical products you can "own". They are walks in the park, a ball game with your friends, a trip to an amusement park. They are just things for entertainment to pass the time.
You don't gain full ownership of the park or ball game because you spent $20 on a ticket. Funny how that works huh?
>>715324998 >victimhood/harassment card
If you're a public figure on the internet and decide to open your mouth on stream and lie about a movement and be extremely rude and disrespectful about it, you are not a victim.
>>715356253 >getting the government involved with vidya
Government is already involved balls deep. Our big keikaku is to convince some yuropoor apparatchiks that they can get a motherlode of soros goodgoy points on their resume by implementing a hecking market controllino which will inadvertently cause hundreds of billions of lost revenue for the AAA industry, which is the whole point (tho being able to keep playing games on private servers after publishers pull the plug is also a plus).

Not even a piratefag fan, but why are people acting as if this is such a big deal? Furthermore, how in the hell did he managed to get so many retards to sub to him? every clip I've seen of him reeks of someone who's trying hard to sound cool.
>>715356674
i think is more interesting because it shows you the kind of people we are dogpiling because in the end, the people who want to ruin gaming all happen to share certain traits. it's always those lean liberal/lefties, pro lgbt which includes furries and all have just a weird innitiative to want to ruin a hobby they themselves claim to be part of
>>715357142 >Games are not physical products you can "own". They are walks in the park, a ball game with your friends, a trip to an amusement park.
Kek he's getting poetic with it now.
Games are products you can own, and they were that way for something like 40 years.
By all means anon, if you want to reclassify games as services you're more than welcome to, but then you'd have to follow the regulations on services instead.
First things first you'd have to be upfront at time of purchase how long access to the service will be allowed. You can do that right?
And then secondly you're going to have to take any digital assets out of your in-game store, because you can't provide for the purchaser to keep their purchase once your service ends. So no more skins, no more accessories. I'm sure you're fine with that right? They probably weren't big sellers anyway huh?

It's incredibly funny seeing the left, who calls themselves anticapitalist and anti establishment fall for every single one of their tricks time and time again.

>>715357142 >Games are not physical products you can "own"
I agree that piracy is not theft.
>You don't gain full ownership of the park or ball game because you spent $20 on a ticket.
I also remember how sports entertainment industry built their entire economic model around banning sports outside of their venues and not allowing other people to build their own stadiums.
>>715324998 >Guys I swear this is about integrity in game journalism and not about gleefully harassing a woman!
Uh, no, I'm pretty sure it was about that one woman who bullied this dude into suicide. Bullying people into suicide is _bad_. You shouldn't do it.
I searched Internet for the dude Zoe Quinn killed for an image, but I got that dude. That's fucked up. Did Zoe kill two people? One in 2016, one in 2019? How many people did Zoe kill? And why aren't we doing thing about it? One is a happenstance, twice is quite the coincidence.

He claimed he was an ex-Blizzard dev and he talked shit about Blizzard. Thats an easy way to gain more views because nobody likes nu-Blizzard and for a good reason.
Words cannot convey the satisfaction I feel that this fraud was finally exposed for what he is, I have felt intense, burning hatred for him since I first had the misfortune of coming across one of his dogshit shorts.
>>715357529 >the left, who calls themselves anticapitalist and anti establishment fall for every single one of their tricks time and time again
Majority of Lenin's written works were dedicated to this specific phenomenon.
Overall he was adamant that what we call "lefties" now is actually seriously unironically worse than Nazis and it is moral and necessary to oppress and execute them en masse.

He just tenses his voice box and also uses a filter. He sounds deeper due to the tensing of the voice box, but way deeper during streams. Sometimes his natural voice just gets through as he relaxes his throat.
Here he is slipping up keep in mind that there is still a very mild filter over his voice):
>>715357872
Huh? The left still hates Israel. Grok was saying anti-Israel shit before Elon got upset at it being woke, and then CONTINUED saying anti-Israel shit after he tried to make it conservative. There's no ulterior reason for this, it's an LLM and everyone on every side hates Israel at this point.

Acted like a faggot while playing WoW, refused to admit fault (despite spending his entire time playing WoW talking about how amazing he was and how he'd never make mistakes) and then blamed everyone else. Then people started digging into all his other activities and noticed he always acts like an arrogant faggot no matter what he's doing, which caused him to sperg out even more. Finally, he opposed SKG in a completely retarded, purposely disingenuous way because it fucks over live service games (DO NOT QUESTION WHY HE DID THIS RIGHT AT THE SAME TIME HE JOINED WITH A TEAM TO WORK ON A LIVE SERVICE GAME SHUT UP). And during all of this, he kept being a lying faggot that refuses to admit fault.
