Not actually associated with WeGame or Tencent. This is just a tribute.

@HoegLaw I did :)

@ScribesShade @scrowder I agree that YouTube is just as dirty as anyone in this.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@ScribesShade @scrowder The “He started it!” line of inquiry seems rather childish and pointless at this point. Moreover, neither made any effort to de-escalate it either. Furthermore, those content creators are surely less interested in assigning blame than they are in securing income presently.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@Luceobrien @Charalanahzard Except Crowder is walking away largely unscathed (he doesn’t really rely on YouTube’s partner program for revenue), yet YouTube’s bots are running roughshod over countless smaller channels simply caught in the crossfire. It isn’t the politics at issue, it’s the execution.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@dylxnwrxght @leonardjfrench @gaywonk But instead of just dealing with Crowder, @TeamYouTube unleashed its bots on countless other channels with nary a concern for the harm it would do. As pathetic as Gaywonk’s virtue signaling is, YouTube’s response is tangibly hurtful to its precious “community.” #VoxAdpocalypse

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@TeamYouTube @drmistercody @gaywonk @YouTube It seems obvious now that @SusanWojcicki needs to step down. Your communication (let alone enforcement) on this has been nothing short of a total shitshow. #VoxAdpocalypse

@Futterish @trevor_ruben Used games *could* have been a part of the ecosystem, but GameStop never made used games a compelling value proposition sufficient to overcome the convenience of digital.

@apocalypticafi @Kojima_Hideo And is the reason why any discussion of the trailer has risked DMCA strikes. Congrats.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@HoegLaw I am uninterested in these two fools. The concern is that YouTube’s means of enforcement is to unleash its algorithmic bots on the smaller channels first, carelessly demonetizing the most vulnerable creators as guinea pigs until the bots learn how to manage larger channels later.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@mjarbo I remember TotalBiscuit saying that YouTube really doesn’t like the “drama” content, so it makes sense.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@Naughty_Dog @PlayStation The greatest era in games, before @Sony embraced censorship.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@mjarbo @pimpmunkx It has begun.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@YouTubeInsider TL;DR, “We will loose our algorithm upon smaller channels, demonetizing those channels with abandon as we train our bots to actually deal with the larger channels.”

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@mjarbo @gaywonk I’m not crying for either. Maza got his grievance heard. And Crowder got a slap on the wrist from the platform provider.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@my2k @coyotewitch @corybarlog When virtue signaling goes wrong.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@mjarbo And @TeamYouTube just helped him sell a lot more.

@OTLonESPN @arielhelwani The only universe in which Conor deserves an immediate rematch against Kabib is in Ariel’s gay fantasies.

Get off Conor’s dick Ariel.

@SynthPotato @TheBestBackpack @claytortot213 @Kotaku That’s probably why Backpack needs to follow Kotaku—because Schreier already blocked him/her.

[John André @WeGameEpicly]

@Kotaku Are you so really so desperate for clicks Kotaku?
