@Dolenz_PSN It is different from those things. You have to get up, get dressed and leave the house for those jobs. Like I said...it all goes back to mindset. I'd rather dig ditches

While I get what you’re saying it’s a bit of an ignorant take. There are people who make it big playing video games and make more money than any of us will ever see (maybe not in MLBTS but in games for Fortnite there are several millionaires).

And I personally work 60 hour weeks, behind my computer, on Zoom calls, etc. And I only need to leave my house a handful of times per year for events.

We all saw a number of content creators exploit the recent glitch with 0 consequence. That alone raised some eyebrows.

But lately I’ve also been seeing some other really questionable things on YouTube and X. I won’t name names, but we’re talking about promoting third-party stub sites and advertising doing ranked/WC/1000 runs for people.

How is any of that okay? The same people who are constantly calling out cheaters are promoting things that are also cheating or against TOS.

I’m all for enforcing the rules, but these rules need to apply to everyone, whether you’re a content creator or just an average player. Otherwise it sends the message that some people are playing by a different set of rules.

Why not name names? Seriously! If people are engaging in illegal behavior, then why should they get one ounce of tolerance or room to breath? Name them. Name every single one of them. Report them by name and challenge SDS to hold them to legal account and prosecution.

I'll continue to call out SDS for their betrayal of customers, but criminals deserve zero tolerance.

YFK is the main one people usually mention. He openly done the WBC glitch, advertises 3rd party resellers on his channel and told SDS in no uncertain terms to do something about it, I dare you.

SDS knows they just refuse to do anything about it.

He also went from bashing the game to singing it's praises ever since SDS sent out their 'we're coming for you' tweet. Cioncidence?

OK SDS, and you say?

I've heard this lodged a few times. If you are going to spend so much time on the market bots from a software angle, why not be more proactive and take legal action to shut down people who are trading on your copyrighted intellectual property?

@SkunkyTrees7615_XBL it's no different than people wanting to be actors, singer/musicians, artists or writers.

I mean, even at 62 I will watch some game streamers and YouTubers. I stay away from the toxic ones though and do it mostly to get previews and impressions of games that I am interested in or have never heard of before.

This exactly. I would never actually stream video games - and I’m sick of the toxic ones. But every so often it’s cool to load up a YouTube video of the new updates or check out a stream.

For streams lately I’ve only watched RoFlo, Ashley, and Mangoes.

YouTube I’m giving up on because I can’t find anyone who isn’t complaining, selling third party stubs, offering to do Ranked runs for you, etc.

I'll never understand grownass men streaming video games

It's very profitable if you get the audience and can get sponsorships.

Not hard to understand why someone would want to stay at home and just play games and make more money than many of us do/did working normal jobs.

That said it is rare to find that type of success streaming but it is a dream for many

I'll try to find it. Not direct quotes but that's the jest of it.

They tweeted at him??
And screw it, I didn’t want to call people out but:
YFK and Trodd? (Think that’s his name) did the glitch
pitching_rebel is posting about doing WC/WS/1000 runs for people on X and in his videos
OhChev is promoting 3rd party stubs now in his videos.

I’m seriously done with content creators and 95% of this community.
