lowtax is doing some p funny videos and they're earning just over a quarter of what Shmorky is earning, so imo we should give him some money and he can use some of it to fix the forums

the kids won't get any presents this year

There should be a page where we can see the registrations that are occurring, just like the leper's colony but reverse. If he has nothing to hide I mean.

you can check them manually

click someone's profile and then put a bigger number in the userid until you run out of profiles

Maybe he should consider that there's simply not a high demand of his style of videos anymore and he's not going to get a lot of money out of being a Youtube celebrity without putting actual effort into it. Making a living from it is pretty much a full-time job where you have to churn a lot of content to stay relevant.

It might be time to consider other revenue sources (like, say, merchandising or new forums upgrades or all the other poo poo people keep recommending every loving time he begs for money).

e:


Because he pissed off the majority of the LP forum by banning popular LPers who happened to disagree with him.

those people who left were major fuckers who said that he harassed his daughter

this place is better now that they left

their new forum is a cool place, the rules even literally unironically mention trigger warnings

Lowtax should lower the price of poo poo like changing their own or other peoples avatars or adding red text. People will stop and think about spending 10 bux or whatever but make it 1 dollar and people will go nuts.

Just look at mobile games. Monitze everything here at cheap prices. New emotes thst only last a month so megathreads and crews can gently caress around. Word filters, forum banners and backgrounds. MICROTRANSACTIONS, MAN

lol no they don't

Yeah it's really funny how "I'm leaving this website because my friend got banned from the forums for disagreeing with Lowtax on Twitter about using his daughter to mock a hospitalized pedophile months after they seperated" somehow became "I'm leaving this website because I think pedohilia loving rules! Also I voted for Hillary and hate white people, oogabooga!!!" after like a month of GBS cancer echo chamber.

Voidburger and psyball weren't extremely popular lpers and not even that active outside of long boring streams.

And I'm still mad at vb for lying that the great race space was forced segregation and also trying to spread unsubstantiated rumors about lowtax being a rapist.
Over being banned on the forum. It's very clear that she thinks any action she takes is completely justified no matter how petty.

She's a garbage person no matter her politics, no real difference between her and something sensitive.
I used to like her and watch her streams, I turned a blind eye to her last dramatics, but I'm very disappointed in her and don't want to hear from her now.

The real problem is that with twitch, lp is a profession now, which would you rather do, put hours of effort into an lp for no money here or just fart on stream and get money thrown at you?

Vb has no actual job, and multiple other people I actually follow quit their job to do streams.

I see no way to fix this because I loving hate streams for the most part and don't want lp to exist as a job but that's the world we live in I guess.

yeah, she's pretty much a textbook example of a sjw

he has multiple children now and doesn't care anymore and probably only continues making internet out of some sense of community obligation to his internet friends

his son made one part of his night in the woods stream hilarious but i do not know why i watched the entire vod for it



Also people watch other people play the game because leaving the TV on takes no effort and accidentally watching it for 4 hours is easy. Playing a video game takes motion and thought and sometimes you're just too cold and dead inside to even muster the energy to do something you tell yourself you enjoy


sometimes LPs are good for other reasons but those are few and far between
