Apparently Tmartn is going to be issuing a statement today. He's already lied about this twice, I'm not sure where he has left to go.

YouTube gaming is generally garbage along the lines of BuzzFeed - hastily thrown together regurgitated content in a race to the bottom. Everyone on there is not much more than a disposable freelancer with nothing to lose. People operate under the assumption that there are YouTubers getting paid by the publishers to play their games, there's no reason to assume that they're not receiving some sort of financial benefits from any other brand they're mentioning with any frequency.
Why did he bother to lie about it at all? I'm not sure what negative consequences there would be for telling the truth from the beginning.
The entire gaming industry is in dire need of regulation to protect consumers, similar to the issues with daily fantasy. Unfortunately, the industry is far larger and will fight back harder, and is much more difficult for politicians to comprehend.

Unfortunately, the industry is far larger and will fight back harder, and is much more difficult for politicians to comprehend. Why lie? The negative consequences of telling the truth would be his site would probably lose most of it's traffic. Could you see this working? "Hey kids, it's your favorite pedophile here TMartn, out to get every dime out of your pants. How about you all come to my new web site so I can rip you off and take all of your allowance money in one epic level lottery scam?"" Compare the above to videos of TMartn going to this website, acting like a regular old joe player, and then squealing like a ten year old girl when he won the lottery. All those teens out there ate that shit up and flocked to copy what he did. That's what teens do.

I don't like how that article said this, " the pair recently revealed" They didn't reveal anything, UNTIL their hands were forced by other people, who caught them. if anything, TMartn has done the opposite. From my brief looking around the net, he's backed up lies on top of the lies, at least three times now.

On a relevant note... We already knew Tmart was a trash tier individual didn't we? Right up there with Driftor. The problem with that statement is everyone has known Tmart was a massive cunt for years (and this new thing being the worst). Where as not many will agree with you that Driftor has done anything worthy of shame. Honestly pointing to that college lecture thing, it's just a cringey video. There's nothing shameful or despicable in it.

I assumed that was the general consensus based on my recent perusal of the "driftor says" thread. Might just be me though. I remember a thread a looong time ago where he tried to use the excuse that he doesn't give credit to anyone on this forum because he wouldn't want to attract the youtube scum here while also bragging about how much credit he doles out. I don't think I minded it at the time, but it certainly must have stayed with me. I'm pretty sure that thread also had iw5k posting lots of pictures and videos. Edit: Found it! Certainly not worth a "shaming" but I never said he should be shamed. I just consider him trash tier. denkirson.proboards.com/thread/5706/cod-youtuber-drama

I dunno what was going on in 2012, but I've heard Drift0r give a ton of credit to people on this forum. Again, I'm not sure what this has to do with Tmartn actively trying to scam people and lying about it multiple times.

Yet somehow...it is as if some magic force gave the the ability to type words that somehow...aren't...relevant. It's a struggle boy howdy, but it just feels so good once in a while. also driftor gives plenty of credit and has for a while now and is also a pretty chill dude The king of the forums has spoken. My feeble words cannot possible contend with your masterful rhetoric. I concede.

The difference is that drifty legitimately thinks the Man O' War has a 20 round mag. He just doesn't know any better.
TacoMart knows what he's doing is wrong.

Probaddie you are down with the syndrome Also Driftor gives plenty of credit and has for a while now and is also a pretty chill dude EDIT: Stop the witch hunt- I'm only a partial owner of Drift0r's channel. I have an equity sponsorship- come on, guys, that's not the same as owning the company. Behold, I foretell the future!

Drift0r's cool from what I can tell. I rarely watch his videos though because my attention span is very low lmao. Energetic YouTubers keep my attention better

I feel like Tmartn is so much of an asshat that we can use his name to replace some offensive derogatory term on the forums.

Post by GodMars on Jul 6, 2016 17:42:11 GMT -5
Asshat has issued a non-apology apology, and owns up to nothing. Tmartn is still an asshat, news at 11.

Then just like that his video is removed. Really, people like this never change.
Luckily, the internet always knows. Hell, have some Reddit while you're at it.
