@TouristPlays @kirawontmiss Yes, it is not illegal. Nothing he did is illegal.
Still completely shitty and fitting the description of predatory behavior, considering it was a pattern of his he used on plenty of women.
He is not a PDF nor a rapist, however. So not a predator in that sense.
@CptJAK96@wimmiebear Except the consent was based on a complete lie. Would she have consented if she had known he had a gf?
To clarify, I'm not trying to claim it would be considered rape. Just pure emotional manipulation (and it seems it was a pattern of his, doing it with a lot of women)
@chuwxn@5nddcszzrx@BiscuitLmaOxx@xQc@pokimanelol I think people just don't understand the word predator.
He fits perfectly the definition of predatory behavior, by using a pattern of manipulations in order to get sexual gratifications from plenty of girls.

@RealmsSmartest Depends on your definition of predator.

@YourPalAnus@_fod0 The cheating wouldn't be that big of an issue if it was just happening once or with a single girl.
The main issue is the pattern. Multiple other streamers have mentioned the same type of behavior from Sykkuno towards them. Which shows it was a modus operandi for him.
@_fod0@YourPalAnus The problem for him is that his entire public persona is based on the "innocent, shy boy".
So admitting what is now public requires a total rebranding of the way he acts when streaming.
@ARo_2101 @gioohhs @EffusiveDesigns@wyalucid Not a lawyer or legal expert, but it appears at least some of the cheating happened at conventions overseas, in which case it should be the law of the country of the convention that applies.
@WytdjS49217 Plenty of Sykkuno's friends have said he never told even them he was in a relationship. Sykkuno himself admits in the video call he was leading them on.
What makes you believe the girls knew he was in a relationship?
@ARo_2101 @gioohhs @EffusiveDesigns@wyalucid That depends on the country / state. Plenty have an age of consent at 16, for example, including US states.
@ThrasherBlade I think people have a biased view on the word predator. Predator doesn't mean PDF.
Sykkuno used power dynamics and a web of lies to manipulate plenty of people into sleeping with him. That is textbook definition of predatory behavior, if you look at BetterHelp definition for ex.
@Ser_Crotum@Squeakychiona@Floki_Vt The problem is not Sykkuno cheating on his gf with one girl. That would be a nothing burger
The issue is that it was apparently a pattern he did with plenty of women over the years. This is what denotes the predatory behavior (it suits BetterHelp definition of the term at least)
@Squeakychiona To me, "cheating" would be if he went with one of those girls behind his gf back.
The fact he did it with apparently plenty of women, always with the same pattern of manipulation, is what denotes the predatory behavior (it suits BetterHelp definition of the term at least...)

@SharkerVep He's clearly a serial cheater and manipulator, but I haven't seen anything about pedophilia, all the girls he was going for were (very young) adults AFAIK.
Did I miss a part of the drama?
@NekotRL@sar_starita_@Canon_Event@SatoruYouKoi@Muj_in Predator doesn't mean PDF. You can be a predator and never go after minors.
Definition of predatory behavior is: "predatory behavior may look like an attempt to trick, manipulate, or control other people to get what one wants without regard for the harm it causes." (BetterHelp)
@SatoruYouKoi@Muj_in Seems Sykkuno was the one doing the advances. While lying about being single and inexperienced in order to trick others into having sex with him
Definition: predatory behavior=attempt to trick or manipulate other people to get what one wants without regard for the harm it causes
@Keniisu@AIejandroGon@Muj_in It is predatory behavior.
Definition from BetterHelp: "predatory behavior may look like an attempt to trick, manipulate, or control other people to get what one wants without regard for the harm it causes."
What Sykkuno did fits that description.
@HenryTheNavig14@photochess A bit easy to play the victim after cyberbullying Daniel for a full year, when finally people get outraged by the amount of harassment that broke Daniel mentally.
