This guy quit Youtube three years ago due to chronic illness, and came back with an ARG
so this is how it felt to see Jesus rise again

the legend continues
I thought he was dead all this time wtf.
holy shit
Well uh, if this is real then he was faking the illness. Fuck. Sketchek is back?
Damn, that thread turned sour real quick.
welp nevermind jesus is cancelled
I thought he was terminally ill. Valve even named the effect of the axtinguisher after him
He lied
Sketchek is back!
Sketchek is back?
Oh. Sketchek is back.
video is unlisted 🤔
It was always unlisted, as it was part of an arg.
Actually scratch that I'm not glad he's back.
my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
He uploaded his apology video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtB7j-edYSE
Why am I not surprised.
So he just lied about having a terminal illness, got the whole community to mourn him and an item named after him. And it was all a prank bro.
Yea not a great comeback lol dunno what he expected.
What the fuck is this "apology"?

At least title it properly this once instead of this pretentious bullshit.
Why not have this be what you come back with? Gotta hype up the channel for the clicks first of course
I don't think "you're allowed to joke about anything" even starts to apply unless you're joking to entertain other people, come on dude.
And what the fuck was that closing line??
Honestly, what a pathetic move.
I heard two stories, one that he faked it as a part of the prank, the other being that he faked it because he feared the hate from the fanbase, if he left tf2 and overall video games.
The problem is... both those don't change anything. What goes through your head to get the idea of faking your death, lying about having an illness? If he wanted to leave the community, he could have, like, ...
just stop posting videos or just say that he has no interest in tf2 anymore?
STAR did this and yes, he got hate, but it wasn't that long lasting and everyone just forgot about it months later.
This dude faked his death. Valve even added a stat with his name to one of the items as some kind of mourning of his death and I guess to underline his legacy. But now, that is meaningless. He lied and tricked tf2 coders into believing he is dead.
And no amount of apology videos will matter. Ironically, he comitted a suicide in the tf2 community. Many people are turning on him now.
What a scumbag.
And the last line in his video just proves he didn't mature at all. What the fuck was that.
I've always felt that you're allowed to joke about anything, so long as you're targeting the right people. You can actually joke about rape without sounding like a totally tasteless asshole if you're making fun of the rapist (see it's always Sunny, the implication). You can joke about a terminal illness, like making fun of shitty actions by drug companies leading to deaths because fuck those guys. There's constant jokes about children dying in lmao pics, but they're making fun of anti vaccinators, who are the ones responsible for those deaths. Making fun of the people mourning a death by causing them to mourn a death is not cool at all.
I am glad that I am not up to date on TF2 personalities tbh
