In Which Yogscast single-handedly ruined minecon for notch - Games

[QUOTE=TheBrokenHobo;33377193]The Yogscast fanbase is overall pretty terrible so I don't associate with them. But then again I guess the same could be said for a lot of Notch's fanbase.[/QUOTE] You can say that for pretty much ANY fanbase. [QUOTE=LuckyLuke;33377202]I didn't know he was a brony? On another note, people have been saying their subs have been decreasing, all i've seen is it dropping by 1, and then increasing again by like 6.[/QUOTE] Yeah, yeah he is, it was on one of the yogpods (he referred to it as "an anime") If this is what Notch had to say after dealing with them maybe we need to re-examine the aether mod devs' opinions?

im just gonna sit here and wait until yogscast says something. there shouldnt be arguing with only 1 story...

[QUOTE=TheBrokenHobo;33377193]The Yogscast fanbase is overall pretty terrible so I don't associate with them. But then again I guess the same could be said for a lot of Notch's fanbase.[/QUOTE] I'd argue that the Minecraft fanbase as a whole is pretty terrible. The majority of it's players seem to be little kids and trolls.

[QUOTE=asteroidrules;33377211]You can say that for pretty much ANY fanbase.[/QUOTE] Actually that's not true, truth be told each game has it's selection of retards, but games which require a lot of skill and strategy, usually something like Starcraft 2 (From what i've seen anyway) usually gather quite a smart, sensible fan-base who are extremely skilled, not some 12 year olds who think they're funny when they talk about random shit that just happened at school.

[QUOTE=asteroidrules;33377211]Yeah, yeah he is, it was on one of the yogpods (he referred to it as "an anime")[/QUOTE] He also said he was watching it with Hannah because he figured girls like ponies, and he hasn't brought it up since.

Of course, Minecraft is just built on little kids screaming into mics because they built a house of of shit. Literal shit, because they've put so much random materials into it it looks like something a piece of shit would throw up. Without that portion of the fan-base they'd have at least 75% less popularity.

One over reactive fanbase against the other. This will be interesting.

[QUOTE=Jasun;33377242]I'd argue that the Minecraft fanbase as a whole is pretty terrible. The majority of it's players seem to be little kids and trolls.[/QUOTE] Them being little kids isn't necessarily a bad thing. My 8 year old cousin plays Minecraft on peaceful and uses Minecraft forums to get new mods like Buildcraft and Better than Wolves. Kids playing it isn't a problem, kids being obnoxious is the problem; and the Internet does that to a lot of people.

Notch is active again on Twitter. I wonder how long it'll take for him to notice how big of a apocalyptic storm of drama he caused here.

[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;33377300]Then there's the gentlemen just looking at it from afar with a pipe in one hand an glass of champagne in the other.[/QUOTE] Quite. *Puffs on pipe*

If what notch said about "They called us "a bunch of nerds who don't know how to run a company"" is true, I feel they're getting in deep water. Does the Yogscast crew know how to run a company? Are they marketing gurus and CEOs of major gaming companies? I'm not saying that either side is as experienced/skilled at running companies, but if I had to choose, it would be Mojang. They've tackled the immense growth fairly well as far as i can see.

[QUOTE=JustGman;33377260]He also said he was watching it with Hannah because he figured girls like ponies, and he hasn't brought it up since.[/QUOTE] I noticed that some Yogscast admins and mods, such as their community manager, seem to be bronies. Maybe they have been asking them to watch the show or something, lol

[QUOTE=gazzy_GUI;33375658]And so we have TotalBiscuits view on the matter.[/QUOTE] Totalbiscuit is a cunt too.

[QUOTE=JustGman;33377260]He also said he was watching it with Hannah because he figured girls like ponies, and he hasn't brought it up since.[/QUOTE] Actually he said he wanted to watch it WITH Hannah sometime. Although yeah he did say he figured since she's a girl she'd like it. And he's made references to it in their shows. [sp]ninja'd[/sp]

[QUOTE=Empty_Shadow;33377505]Totalbiscuit is a cunt too.[/QUOTE] I think he is a cunt too in behavior but he got some good arguments and an interesting point of view. If he was to be yogscast's lawyer, they would be in good hands.

I think notch is making too big a deal of this. Instead of posting it all over the internet it would have been a far better idea to quietly kick them out instead. Also really doubting a lot of the stories on either side here, there isn't any actual evidence (anyone could have 'signed' for the yogscast). Tbh unless I see some hard evidence of anything instead of this 'allegedly' shit, I don't believe it at all. It was stupid to make such a big deal of it. [B]Edit:[/B] If anyone dares mention the word immature, let me remind you notch makes fap jokes all day.

[QUOTE=SnowCanary;33377531]Why should we care anyway.[/QUOTE] Historical accuracy, gives us a deeper insight into what these now apparently evil youtubers have in their heads, further evidence about the importance of quelling brony insurgence.

They are all cunts that are making money off of us!!!

[QUOTE=gazzy_GUI;33375658]And so we have TotalBiscuits view on the matter.[/QUOTE] ok thats still no excuse for being a complete ass at a major event for your favorite game

[QUOTE=Phycosymo;33377677]ok thats still no excuse for being a complete ass at a major event for your favorite game[/QUOTE] Allegedly.

I love them both but I think this was exaggerated to the nth degree. It seemed like notch and the yogscast got along great during the interview. Maybe everyone just had a bit too much to drink and then someone cracked a joke, causing someone to be offended, causing this whole debacle.

[quote]nd they claim they're the reason minecraft is big and that we should thank them more than anyone else in the community. They're total dicks They are certainly the biggest driving force behind Minecraft at present, you only need to look at the view count. After Seananners stopped doing Minecraft content, Yogscast became a massive source of free promotion for the game.[/quote] Nnononononnononono Jesus christ you egotistical fuck.

I'm proud to say even through all of this my opinion of Yogscast has not changed. I still don't like them.

yogscast is a bunch of fags

I don't like Simon and Lewis that much but I do like watching their videos. They might be dicks but they're dicks that can make some pretty decent videos.
