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

[MrMan999]

I personally feel really bad for Spoony because of his depression/mental state. I'm also boycotting Lupa for her "Has Oreo found a new mommy yet?" tweet. I don't care what Spoony did, you don't throw someone's one-loved around as an attack. Yes, Spoony's joke was a little uncalled for, but Lupa shouldn't have attacked him like that. As for LordKat, I hope he gets banned for TGWTG, but he won't since's he's on the "right" side.

Lordkat quit back in 2010 dude. Also I agree. Both sides (With the exception of a few) Acted like complete fucking jackasses.

Oh I fully agree that both sides acted like jackasses. And maybe "banned" wasn't the right word. I meant "removed". His vids are still linked though TGWTG., and I think those links should be taken off, just like Spoony's were.

He has apologized properly on twitter for all to see.

All I have seen is his incredibly sarcastic 'Oh fine I apologize because I have to now.'

 

[infinity_turtles]

Honestly? He's always said stupid shit in his videos. Frankly I'm surprised its taken this long to get kicked to the curb. I'll be more than willing to give him another chance if he changes his tune and apologizes properly, we've all done dumb shit when we're really depressed after all.

He has apologized properly on twitter for all to see.

Where's that? He's deleted a lot of his tweets, but the last I saw he posted that was an "apology" was this

There was a more dedicated and sincere apology to the person he aimed the joke at a month ago when it was actually said. The one he gave to Lupa wasn't genuine because to be honest he didn't owe her an apology and he knew it.

For his actions toward his fans and the general shitty attitude since then... I don't expect a serious apology till he really sits down and gets some serious help. If he did it soon I'd be pleasently surprised.

 

[Fr]anc[is]

I've got sympathy for Spoony if he really does have mental problems, but jesus christ this entire thing is pathetic. A bunch of guys from a site with an ugly front page got into an epic level pissing contest. A wonderful use of my time reading up on this.

 

[JimB]

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

If that's what they're doing, then they're doing a piss-poor job of it, because I keep bringing it up.

Really dude, do you think that people that make the rules so clearly follow them themselves?

I think it is in their best interests to do so, since reputation and perception can easily threaten their revenue.

Can I live in your version of Earth?

Depends. Can you pay the cover charge to get in?

 

[tthor]

I really hope that everyone involved realizes at some point, that all of this makes them look like a bunch of psychotic man-(and woman-)children that are unfit to be involved in anything that requires any amount of professionalism, restraint or sanity.

Which might be bad in the long run, business-wise.

Linkara, poor schmuck, seems to be desperately trying to calm the whole thing down and contain the damage all by his lonesome while everyone else is exploding into RAEG!!!

Oh Lovehug, why must you always be the Blue Ranger.

He's the only one that's been acting perfectly professional during this entire ordeal.

Lewis deserves so much more respect that he gets.

Good to see someone acting professional in this cluster of crazy. More power to him for trying to play peacemaker, but I think it's pretty much set in stone that there's not going to be much to salvage.

I find him to be very confusing.
He seems to be a nice, thoughtful, professional person, who is both willing and able to behave like an adult.
He´s also internet-famous.
How does that work ?

He is Minnesotan, if you are from the area you would understand.

Gotta love Minnesota Nice

just don't get in our way on the road, or we'll run you off the god damn road you mother fu- sorry, Minnesota road-rage, too

We may of gone 30 pages, but we're probably a very small yet vocal part of their fanbase. Clearly it's been this long and still no extra statement on the matter means as much. They lose a few guys like me, but they retain the core sheep because they're living in a bubble blah blah blah my anticorporate rhetoric.

And I believe I'm on the list. I should under Insane, SaneAmong?

Hm. You know what? I don't think we're ever going to convince one another. I don't respond well to rhetoric or conspiracies, and you don't respond well to my...whatever it is (I imagine you'd describe it as naivety), so I don't think we're going to make any headway. However:

I should under Insane, SaneAmong?

That line actually got a laugh out of me, so for all it's worth, I'm parting with no hard feelings.

 

[Karadalis]

And yet he does keep getting bigger. His profits just keep growing. He's lazy and an ass, but he's doing something that keeps people around. Maybe just finding entertaining people in his community and bringing them on with him. Dunno, but it works.

But no one talks about him (unless he prompts depressive people to commit suicide or flings shit at his former co workers years after the fact), it might be that a good bunch of people listen to his streams but he is no one important in the scene of online reviewers/game journalists.

Or people listen to his streams because he has a bunch of better people in them? I highly doubt that all of these people come because of him.

 

[Vault101]

holy shit...29 pages??

I didn't think people were so invested in the inner dramas of TGWTG

EDIT; just for fun what bad things has spoony said about his fans? and what other crazy things has he saod?

 

[Darks63]

The thing is... can you really blame a bunch of bloody beginners to have to learn first how to behave at a "professional" *coughhack* convention what to do and what not to do?

And i highly doubt this one interview with notch would have catapulted lordkats career sky high... the guy is simply to lazy.

He makes a living off what he has now. An interview with Notch back then would've meant most gaming sites would've linked to him as the source, which would've brought views and a lot of exposure. It could've been a big deal for his business. I agree he's a lazy fuck though.

See thats what i dont believe because even thought everyone would have linked to him... his personality and work ethics would not have changed.

Sure it might have boosted his income but the guy simply is to lazy and resistant to the idea of putting effort into things to hit it big.

He has been on the escapist.. on CA and on BT (wich essentialy is the same) and left all three of them allways blaming others for it.

I doubt he would have gotten bigger then he is now even with an interview with notch.

Hmmm that's an idea.

YO ESCAPIST! GO GIVE SPOONY A JOB, EH?

I dont think he could keep up with a weekly update schedule atm

this was his last sincere apology, which of course solved nothing and only got thrown back in his face, at that point i don't blame him for not giving a shit anymore.

Not sure he really cares if people talk about him as much as he cares about his business growing. Anytime he talks about extra exposure it's always about how it will help his business and community grow. That said, yeah the people who come on his stream are a big part of it. It's really the only reason I go on it. He has a rather large collection of friends who play off him and each other pretty well. He's a lazy dick, but his friends are funny. Rollo_T(From Transmission Awesome and I think he does DS reviews for BT)has left me laughing so hard I was gasping for air more time then anyone else probably has.

this was when the situation was devolving rapidly so it largely went ignored and the flames kept coming or people insisted he was not sincere. Or that he really hasn't done anything to make it better, take your pick really.

so you can't apologize after being a sarcastic ass, got it, might want to tell Lordkat that then. And did you miss "i'm sorry again" that is a flat out apology.

but when people say this to you
https://twitter.com/Karkitty612/status/215979320424939520

does the public or anyone else really deserve an apology? He's not going to get on his knees and beg and frankly he shouldn't have to he settled whatever it was with Hope and Lupa felt she had to bring her big nose into it and start it all up again.
