The Spoony One has been ejected from That Guy With the Glasses.

[renaissance_nerd]

So spoony just said on twitter that his doctor says he has Bipolar II disorder. Thought this was relevant. Hopefully he'll have an easier time managing with this knowledge.

well now its documented he in fact does have a medical condition, and that medial condition also carries with it some hypersexuallity, the dots are connecting, now he needs to get treatment and learn to cope. so he was not just being a douche for being a douche sake.

One phrase from the Wikipedia article on Bipolar II scares me. "Those with bipolar II are at highest risk of suicide among the bipolar spectrum." Seeing what Noah has gone through in this last year and a half, combined with that...what would have happened to Noah if Miles and Oreo weren't there for him?

And I can never watch the v-log of "Breaking Dawn Part I" again. It was hard to watch before, but now, that breakdown is just ungodly depressing.

Catcha: goosebumps. Damn straight.

Edit: Even worse, looking at the bottom of the Wikipedia page, apparently, Kurt Cobain was diagnosed as Bipolar II before he died.

well he does have his fans and even though he may not admit it they have helped him too even if it was just a target to vent. Reading the description of Bipolar II I'd have to say yea, thats spot on the Noah we have been seeing for the past 2 years.

True. But how long would those fans last before he alienated too many of them in a manic state, or until he sank too low in a depressive state?

 

[JimB]

Yeesh. I was very briefly diagnosed with Type II Bipolar during my eventful journeys through America's psychiatric care wonderland, so I did some checking into it, and yeah, that is some horrible stuff. I hope that this latest diagnosis of his is true, though, if only so his doctors can start treating the correct illness instead of an apparently erroneous diagnosis of depression.

don't know, thats why im glad he sought out a diagnosis so quickly after what transpired, though the timing may just be a coincidence as this is something that takes time to diagnose.

At least he has a sense of humor about the diagnosis.

The doctor says I have bipolar 2 disorder. Yes, I have the sequel to bipolar disorder, Bipolar 2. #The Quickening.

yea like i said earlier he seems in better spirits. he has been making alot of jokes on twitter recently even some at his own expense.

 

[JoeThree]

For anyone wondering this is the tweet that started the entire thing:

Spoiler

Gonna be honest this seems less like a rape joke and more of a S&M/bondage joke, since there is nothing in the tweet to suggest that none of this is non-consensual. That said, most people will probably still view it as sexual harassment. As for me, I remain skeptical that this is the reason for Spoony and CA parting ways. Unless of course we get some sort of confirmation from someone involved. In addition, I don't think it really matters so as long as Spoony continues to make videos and neither side shows malice towards one another.

Nope, rape joke. Go to Noah's twitter and you can se him making more in the last few days so he acknowledges it as a rape. He has not ranted about bondage or the like (it would be easy for him to rant about "bondage now being considered rape" or the like but not a word).
And also this:
https://twitter.com/TheSpoonyOne/statuses/216171032028004355

Sometimes people make a joke, it gets taken the wrong way, and they continue to make jokes about the way it was taken. It happens a lot, ESPECIALLY online.

In other still-related news, LordKat just apologized to his fans on his site, also saying that "telling Noah that he should take his own life was a terrible thing, but that's not what I'm apologizing for right now".

http://www.lordkat.com/see-you-hell-my-friends.html

Well, I guess nobody's exactly healthy when it comes to mentality.

What I still don't understand is how they got all up in knives on this. I mean, I remember Spoony and LordKat played a streamed D&D session, and it was a pretty damn long session, with laughs and jokes. This doesn't mean they're BFFs, but it still looked like they're friends.

Lordkat maintains that after Spoony's Epic "BETRAYAL" scream at E3 2010 that he was denied interviews with the Xcom team because he was associated with Channel Awesome.lordKat has held this against noah ever since (if it is in fact true)

but funny that never stopped Joe and Spoony from getting any interview they wanted. Lordkat is a giant opportunist and he saw all this come down so he decided to stir the pot to generate more visitors to his own site.

went off on a tirade and managed to get his own community pissed at him, saying that if you enjoy Spoony's videos you had no right watching his (lordkat's) stuff.

Lordkat somehow blames spoony for "ruining" his career as a video game reviewer because according to lordkat spoony ruined his chance at an interview on E3 back in the day...

And not the fact that he was even to lazy to make his cheap production value "until we win" vids.

I mean all he did in those videos was pretty much read of a walkthrough for a game over endlessly repeating footage of said games levels... thats hardly any work involved on his part but he still ended the series because it was "just to much work for him to be bothered"

If he cant even keep a schedule with such an easy project then im sorry but his "career" was not ruined by spoony but by his own asshattery..

Lets just say lord kat believes hes to awesome to do any real work but still demands to be seen as a professional.

he put his reputation on the line and accepted the challenge to beat The Adventures of Bayou Billy. he did but Spoony called him out for using an emulator and save states, which if your supposed to be this dire hard "until we win" guy thats kind of a no no.

Oh my god... This is so much worse that I thought, yet at the same time, this does give relative explanation to a lot of things. At least he has the good sense to at least have gone to the doctor in the last few days after his mental break.

EDIT: In retrospect... yeah... this makes this whole situation even more pitiful, when only one person in this entire debacle is diagnosed with a severe and self-destructive depressive disorder, yet everyone involved decided to act just as childish and stupid as the next person, even the ones in their right mind.

And I didn't think it could have gotten any more pathetic.

I was just about to point that out. This E3 both spoony and joe interviewed the devs for XCom:Enemy Unknown, and that's being published by 2K (who's also doing the FPS), so... How was this bad? I actually thought the "BETRAYAL" scene was pretty funny.


Well, I guess it just goes to prove: some people are misunderstood, some are hot-headed and some... are just douches. Kind'a feel bad for linking his website earlier, now.

What's funny is that when he explained how he was going to do his "Until We Win" series he even said he wouldn't use save states.

 

[DudeistBelieve]

I enjoy discussing it, I guess I'm just that nosy. I enjoy posting to a 3rd party site because I know the subject won't be stomped out like it has been on TSE and TGWTG.

should he have left well enough alone absolutely, but there is only so much a guy can take.

So both sites are still in ban mode?

yep if you even mention it at TSE or TGWTG you are banned.

I take it you were a casualty?

yep I was banned from TGWTG on the day it happened.

Wow.... fucking assholes. I'm entirely serious about not watching shit on their website anymore. I'll find a way to view Lindsay and Linkara's stuff, but I ain't doing it through their site.

I made one post just pointing something out without using foul language and was banned the next day.

Here is a list of offenses that will get you banned from the forums at thatguywiththeglasses.com. There is a link to these rules at the top of every subforum.

Class A: Instant Bans

Links to porn sites or other related material will result in immediate bans. (will also result in your account being deleted)
Do not troll or bait flame wars among members.
Uploading pornographic avatars or signatures. (will also result in your account being deleted)
Do not post threads advertising services and/or products. (will also result in your account being deleted)
Embedding poronographic and/or violent material in posts is unacceptable. (will also result in your account being deleted)
Spamming. Just no.

If you were banned but not deleted, your post must have been considered to fall under either the prohibition against trolling and flame baiting, or else spamming.

Yeah because it's completely out of the realm of possibilities for them to try to cover up their fiasco at the expense of banning people who talk about it.

Really dude, are you think that people that make the rules so clearly follow them themselves? Can I live in your version of Earth?

 

[Masterdebator]

Even less reason to visit the site I see.

 

[infinity_turtles]

I really hate to see people spouting off things and being wrong. I mean, LordKaT was way over the line and was/is a major dick, but what the hell did accuracy do to you people?!

What's funny is that when he explained how he was going to do his "Until We Win" series he even said he wouldn't use save states.

And in the beginning he did do that. Eventually he told everyone on his site he was going to use savestates because it took a long time to get the footage, and he raged really hard on more then one occasion when he lost said footage after having beaten the game the hard way. Pretty much everyone was cool with that, because the fact that he was using savestates didn't change the videos except mean he got them out faster. It's canceling Until We Win because he hates editing the videos that pissed everyone off.

It was actually Mojang's Notch at GDC he lost the interview with. Different companies. One didn't care if one of the many people checking out their game was crazy, another wouldn't let their head dude be interviewed by a guy associated with the people who ran around asking to choke people on camera and yelling out things at a previous convention. Totally understand why Lordkat is pissed about that, because that was around when Mojang was really taking off. Notch agreed to an interview, which he doesn't do very often, but others at the company cut it off due to hearing LordKaT was connected to Blistered Thumbs, That Guy with The Glasses gaming related brand. An interview with Notch at the point would've meant pretty much every gaming site would've been linking to him as the source. That was a huge chance he lost.

*editted for clarity*
