Thread 724021428

is it true melpert originally got his start advertising on ancient pre-reddit /v/?

have any other 4channers made it bigtime??

>>724021428 (OP)
This board is for ANONYMOUS opinions about VIDEO GAMES!

If you want to advertise your internet boyfriend and his shitty “gaming channel”, you can crawl back to YouTube, Twitch, Xitter, Reddit or whatever shithole you came from, faggot.

>>724021428 (OP)
yeah he started here before twitch even. spamming threads to get an audience. notch is also /v/. minecraft was made here.

>>724021428 (OP)
Yes.

>>724021428 (OP)
Pretty sure Fantano used to post on /mu/ before he became a total communist nutjob

>>724022285
that makes me like vinny more, even though i know he's nepo somehow

>>724021428 (OP)
4chan was one of the biggest nerd congregations online before other social platforms became lucrative through ad revenue and took all the people creating OC. A lot of the millennial aged assholes you see popular over on twitter or youtube all used this place at some point but will hide the fact they did to keep people off their ass.

Egoraptor also did a full AMA on here after the Playstation reality tv shitfest before Game Grumps was ever a thing.

>>724022285
Nice to see rev was hated for being a douche bag back then too

>>724021428 (OP)
agar.io was 4chanell

>>724021428 (OP)
Yes and yes. A lot of ecelebs started out here.
>self advert here and do edgy shit when new
>get popular
>leave and never mention this website again

>>724022705
stupid dogs you make us look bad

>>724021895
yeah, you show that retarded sloptuber-loving influencer. bring back 2007 /v/.

>>724022285
>List predates Joel's Vinesauce debut by a year.
What would he say about him?

dude sucks ass now and his band is a joke

>>724021428 (OP)
Yeah, he'd advertise for the old site that was a 24/7 stream, or as close as he could get to it. Single account, multiple owners before even blip.tv. His first big video was a live recreation of the dook nookem comic as well as the cursed Pokemon x/y depression stream.
>>724022562
He was pushed up on /mu/ to win some major music reviewer poll in the early 10s.

>>724023086
he was definitely better pre-incident. still pretty watchable though

Does he still make mario voices

>>724023086
He can't even read sheet music.

>>724023292
thats all he ever does.

>>724023292
yeah he has two mario voices. the brooklyn mario show voice, and the high pitched mario voice.

I watched him play Still Wakes the Deep
he was just chatting about nonsense the entire fucking time. Probably barely registered the game he was playing

>>724023392
>>724023396
Its the only thing I liked about him

>people actually think he will do act 3 silksong
he acted like he was held at gunpoint to play it at all lol
if it's not zelda or mario forget about it

>>724021428 (OP)
He's the sole reason the "Do not advertise your streams" rule exists.

>>724023478
he wanted to put it down a few streams before hand but felt pressured to get an ending

>>724023437
first time watching Vinny? thats all he ever does, him and Jerma have this hyperfixation that that if you're not doing a bit or talking about your day you're leaving dead air and losing viewers.

>>724022285
the pre-joel era

>>724023458
Well, have I got the video for you
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5KKR0d27BU

>>724023528
I only watched bits and pieces of it, vinny sucks ass now. Even sunday is boring as fuck now. Oh well nothing good lasts forever.

Joel will finish it one of these days... right?

What sure causes is a was this?

>>724023734
joel is nearly always more entertaining

>it's another "spend all day talking about the people i supposedly hate" episode
why does /v/ do this?

>>724022285
what happened to Jen?...

>>724023086
>try to become a real musician
>sell like one, act like one
>constantly get mogged by Joel joke songs anyway
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5PX0FM5JWk

>>724023825
>why does /v/ hate
HMMMMM NO IDEA ANIME CUNT

>>724023734
Well, he did like 10 years straight of corruptions. I'm not sure what he could do to spice up sunday stream again. I'm not a fan of the commercials. Mainly since I saw them all growing up already.

Is dude this yeah took traumatic?

There was a small scale turf war fought here between Vinny and another user named capicoli (fun fact, the infamous Geese video still has cap’s email address as a jab at him), naturally only one of them won out

>>724022705
>>724022842
he's mentioned /v/ many times over the years.

>>724023885
maybe he could stop being a faggot and play actual games
>but sunday memes!!!!
ok so play shitty games

>>724022705
Lauren Faust also did a 4chan AMA once

one of them likely still comes here, since when we found the "/old" folder on the website while gpm tried to cancel him it disappeared a very short time later

>>724023458
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qun1dG6o5NU
He's still got it

people here shit on his band, but i assume thats because e-celeb fags are miserable. any unbiased thoughts about his stuff? im not really a music fag, but it seems just okay. i assume hes got his fanbase of trannies in the audience at his show tho

What's up with this sudden surge in CP spam posting lately?

>>724024196
don't know.

>>724024065
intredasting

>>724023885
Every sunday stream now a days is:
>commercial/watch along
>mario/zelda adjacent content
>corruptions
I want lizard crate and getting weird with it back. Maybe him checking out some other game jams beyond LSD jam as well. I don't think he'd ever just stumble on baldis basics years before anybody else did with his current schedule.

>>724024196
rapeape revealed their inability to actually stop it

I'm just gonna say it
Vinny's ten year old Eternal Darkness playthrough was funnier.

>>724024186
I think some of the songs are okay. He mostly does it as a hobby, and for hobby music it's alright. they have a small spotify following and they've done a few local shows, including too many games 2024, should be on youtube if you wanna check it out

>>724024186
it's indie punk rock nothing special I do like garbage land though

>>724024186
From what I've heard its not bad, just pretty standard dad rock stuff. Either you like that or you don't.

been watching him on and off since 2014, and ever since The Incident he's somehow become a much better streamer.

For me it's ninomae ina'nis

>>724024186
he has maybe one, two good songs per album because he tends to copy-paste a lot. he's not bad but its nice to hear him talk about how passonate he is about making music, just wish he could apply some of that to his streams..

>>724024186
I like 3 of his songs, but the rest of it is just kinda w.e. Wouldn't call it bad, but it's not my thing.

>>724023846
GRANDMA HAS DIED

>>724024186
just like vinny, his band is from the 90s-00s and stuck there

>>724024186
>it seems just okay
That's accurate.

>>724024330
a lot of his streams from 5+ years ago are funnier because he wasnt constantly bitching like he's dying of cancer when he's actually just turning 40

>>724024421
back to /vt/, faggot

>>724024186
Garbage land is by far their best song and it's a joke Beck rip off.

He has the attentive spam of a 6 year old nowadays. It's not even a numbers game he actually has a problem.

>>724021428 (OP)
>people don't want to watch me play final fantasy tactics
>here's rimworld stream #20

>>724023846
Him incorporating the toreador march from FNAF at the end is some 200 IQ shitposting.

>>724024421
>Holo dodgers
God damn I forgot they were paid to host Ohtani's birthday.

>>724024652
part of me wants to blame that he gets that from Jerma, but maybe he's just a dumbass. i dunno.

>>724024539
Yeah I've noticed that. I am watching his metroid prime 2 stream and enjoying it since he is into the game

>>724024914
well yeah, its Metroid. that shit is gospel to him, because no matter how poorly he tries to deny it he's a die hard nintendo fan.

>>724022285
>>724023027
>>724023694
It's 4chanX and hides the post number, it's shopped

>>724023846
Joels music is funny because he will do an amazing crush 40 impression, then just devolve into random nonsense part way through:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFw1kKyYTHI&list=RDwFw1kKyYTHI&start_radio=1

I really wish he actually streamed FFT fully, I feel like that'd be an enjoyable series for once

I watched Vinesauce's VODs and highlights from 2012 to 2021. Got tired of the audience pandering and Jerma association, as well as other youtubers.
I guess Vinny got old but his newer, more staged content isn't anywhere near as funny or enjoyable and the heart is gone.

>>724024287
>he'd ever just stumble on baldis basics years before anybody else did with his current schedule.
MikePanoots stumbled onto it first on a grab bag stream and Vinny or whoever compiled the Getting Weird With It pack he played that time outright stole it from him.

>>724025085
i'm the one who him about sonic's wiki page having bill clinton lmao

>>724025154
Jerma is funny but even he is getting worse due to himself association because the chat is full of fags not

>>724025154
Jerma is a performance artists. I can understand why not everyone loves him, but he's god damn hilarious to me.

does vinny still check 4chan?

>>724025492
He makes these threads.

>>724025492
definitely. he was referencing time jannies early in his remake streams

>>724024838
Jerma usually at least commits to beating something even if it takes him a few tries, more often than not when Vinny encounters an obstacle of any kind he'll immediately ask chat to tell him what to do or drop it there.
That event where people made vinesauce themed game's for him was the most eye opening, the number of those he would drop 2 minutes in because he fucked up one platforming jump or puzzle or something was wild. Even if they were mostly dogshit it felt kind of fucked up for the people that spent a week/weekend making them.

>>724024539
Between that and the constant yammering on about the most boring inane shit and making the occasional sex joke while also simultaneously getting mad at any even remotely sexy things in any game or said in chat, I just can't be interested in watching the guy anymore. MAYBE if he plays a game I give a shit about, but even then, I'd rather just play it myself. Maybe I've just grown out of these lucky retards making millions playing video games.

>>724025707
Jerma does give genuine effort even if he's bad. the occasional idiot savant moments are great from him.

>>724024572
Ironic considering how involved Vinny is with vtubers.
Even went to the hololive concert in NYC like two months ago

>>724025492
No, his chat has to explain new phrases to him like "forced soul". He only knows the older memes.

>>724025196
I'm shocked joel never played that "mario teaches typing 3" shitpost game given how much he's obsessed with bill clinton and old dos games.

joel>>>>>>>vinny

The good times were never going to last when trannies began latching on and dulling everything down. Especially prevalent in situations like when he tried Psychopomp and people had a big shit-fit over him killing a character, among many other examples that could probably be listed.

>>724025982
Manly looks swarthier than I imagined.

>>724025492
if he does he'll never admit it, he'll do anything to maintain his fence sitting centrist status.

>>724025056
>It's 4chanX and hides the post number, it's shopped
newfag
/v/ back then hid the last 3 post numbers because of dubs and get faggotry.

>>724026403
How is that a bad thing? Trannies loves him, chuds think he's secretly based, he gets access to both audiences. Guy is living the dream.

>>724026278
Shit like that is why he won't stream Undertale or Deltarune thankfully

>>724025268
I never really watched Jerma even back then.
>>724025982
Both these guys are middle aged and used 4chan.

>>724026450
>gatekeeping
Well that worked well didn't it?
Ironic because any screencap I see from 4chanX is shitting on someone else or something without any proofs.

>>724024186
I feel like they peaked with Stranded and never attempted anything close since

help i am stockholm syndrome locked into parasocial relationship(s) with 40+ year old men

this is not a joke this is a cry for help i lost my real friend group to time and old age this is legitimately the closest i have to an actual friend

>>724026278
the psychopomp shit still frustrates me

I don't think vinny is a grifter shill leaning that direction for views I think he just legitimately lives in active fear/contempt for his audience

he had to stop doing art segments because people were getting fucking WEIRD
