[QUOTE=Maloof?;45756146]To be fair what he did was pretty shitty.
Engaging in what's essentially a tabloid expose of her current situation is shitty in itself; it's her private life, let her sort it out. Taking it further though and actively widely broadcasting a derogatory slanderous comic to 200,000 followers is harassment to the extreme and makes him, in this situation, a certified dick.
Which makes me sad, because I love the content he creates.[/QUOTE]
This is a little bigger than some woman cheating on someone. This is about corruption within the games industry. This is not exclusively her problem and it is deluded to act like this isn't our concern.
[QUOTE=U-Lander;45758942]Shame that Jon is going out of his way to express himself. Wish he knew how to just be calm or at least tread carefully.
All this recent "drama" is just sort of a beehive everyone can't stop kicking. And its not running out of bees.[/QUOTE]
I like the "There was a line and we clearly crossed it, but let's keep going and see what happens" strategy, by both sides.

It's all just going to bubble up again anyway. Might as well just get it all out there now.
[QUOTE=HoodedSniper;45758587]Guys please, Jon is in serious danger. They are done with SJW, now they are sending the SJM in.

[QUOTE]In the last two weeks I have been trying to take a stand against pre-censorship mainly via Twitter. Due to the inherent lack of face-to-face interaction, context, and the inflection of my voice, I can see this was the wrong way to go about it . Anyone can misquote me and see whatever they want in my words, and that has become apparent.
At this point, I feel like I'm straying from what it is I really aim to do, and that is bring people smiles through comedy. That said, comedy is a powerful tool for speaking your mind and igniting social change. I have realized that debating this on twitter is not helping the cause, or leading to any progress. I really appreciate those who have been supporting me, and even those who have been criticizing me as it is your right as a human being.
When I think of all the people that inspire me, I realize that they didn't sit on Twitter arguing with people. They made provocative stand up routines or films about how they felt, and that is what translated their opinions and ideas to other people. I am going to officially disengage from this argument because there is no way for either side to truly win. I can see now that it doesn't bring good in any capacity to squabble as we have been. I am not backing out of this because I am giving in, I am backing out because I think there are much more fruitful ways as a whole to spend our energy trying to solve the problems we face, big or small. I am going to dedicate myself to my work, and maybe through that you will see what I have been trying to say all this time.
Thanks for sticking with me on this, whether or not you agree! :D![/QUOTE]
There, I guess no one needs to talk about this Quinnspiracy shit anymore, at least here.
At least the drama should die down
yayyyy
I'm glad Jon realized it's okay to ignore stupid people. Back to happiness everyone :D
The way he worded that makes it seem like he'll be making these kinds of statements in videos he does. Which sounds pretty great if you ask me, putting your real thought into comedy made for some of the best comedians
So, a lot of people are saying Arin's turned into a douche and his flawed game design understanding is becoming apparent, but I haven't found any examples outside of his videos (which I don't plan on watching). Can someone give some examples?
he just doesn't read fucking anything and then goes on about how stupid the mechanics are when he inevitably mucks up
I was watching GG when they were playing Wind Waker and at one point Arin said something along the lines of; "I don't like telling people how to play the game, even if they beg me to give them a hint I just won't do it"
I was [I]instantly[/I] reminded of his and Jon's Nickelodeon Guts playthrough wherein Arin is screaming at Jon for not telling him how to do something in game.
Arin also just doesn't pay attention most of the time.

You guys know the reason a JonTron thread was made was because he was the only thing being talked about in the Game Grumps thread right? Don't turn this into other way around, you silly geese :v:
Glad he's gonna stop talking about this shit on Twitter. There's better things to do than to waste time talking about this shit, especially when you're just one guy against a whole bunch of same minded individuals. While I can't say I like Jon more now that he's had this quabble, I can still respect his decision as being the smart thing to do.
Now, can we move past drama-tron? Talk about if Jaques and the other bird are in a relationship?
I had no idea he actually got serious about CS:GO.
I can't watch the stream, shitty internet and since he isn't a twitch partner there's no quality options.
stream is fucking amazing right now
jon doesn't seem to do the whole stream thing very well
half the chat is ascii jewfaces

"Can't do it because I'm mentally challenged"

I'm pretty sure he said mentally challenged.

Are you seriously complaining about the quality of twitch chat? Twitch chat is always shit, just let it flow.
[QUOTE=HoodedSniper;45764214]Are you seriously complaining about the quality of twitch chat? Twitch chat is always shit, just let it flow.[/QUOTE]
I don't have many complaints about Twitch chat on Vinesauce's stream, they keep it tidy without even slowmode, just by interacting with it and paying attention, people tend to respect the chat if they know its a valuable tool to interact with the streamer, even when he is at 3k viewers the chat is readable and not just spam of ascii and parroting what the streamer says.
My point is, dedicated AND professional streamers can manage to have a nice chat without spam, its not impossible, you only need a team of mods for random idiots and to be actively reading it and interacting, then people feel valued and stop writting crap just for the sake of it

no, its just an example
he also lost audio for the video game, then lost his mic's audio, then boosted his mic too loud and had to close the stream several times :v:

This is like the second time Jon has ever streamed, Vine has been streaming for like 3-4 years now.
I was Teemo in the second game
