TotalBuiscuit is going dark it seems...

Well this sucks. After all the hate build up for reasons better expressed in the video, TB is avoiding all comments on YT and Reddit for the foreseeable future. Thick skin does not last. It builds and builds, people have their breaking points and TB seems to have reached his. It is easy for somebody to say "you need thick skin" when they are not the one under fire. It is totally different when you're in it. Not saying I understand on their level, but I can say that it is really disheartening. You can have 99.99% good reception, but that .01 tends to linger and stand out more. It really eats at you, they can be the dumbest, most illogical attention seeking posts you have ever seen. But it gets to you at some point. It is something I don't think people will understand fully until they do it and it happens to them. NOTE: Noticed Tartans thread about The Order 1886 on the front page. This thread was originally featuring its new trailer. Saw that this thread no longer had a purpose, so I changed it.

    • The biggest problem with the internet is how volatile it is, people fail to understand that they're talking, or more than often, insulting is an actual person who exists and has feelings just like the rest of us.

          I understand what Boogie and TB are going through ... just on a much less dramatic scale. I have my own YT channel and while it's nowhere near king size of theirs I still get tons of comments on my 4K+ videos I've uploaded. When you start seeing your email inbox full of messages about comments on your youtube vids every single morning it's a lot to sift through, reply to, and filter. Some full of stupid pointless hate, others are nice, and others are just people saying negative stuff thinking they know me and my channel better than I. Like today for example. Some random left a comment on one of my halo Reach vids telling me how bad I am because heaven forbid I'm not MLG pro and missed a few DMR shots (despite the end goal of the match was to win and win the match I did). He saw only the negative in my gameplay and came in with unreasonable expectations and his backlash was to criticize the crap outta me. I can't image what other 'useful' comments he leaves on other people's vids. I get comments like his on my videos every day. Someone lately has been trying to hack in my twitter account too ... no idea why because it has nothing personal about me. I don't even use twitter. It was just setup to automatically make a post when I'd stream on twitch.tv back in the day lol It doesn't bother me in the end since I don't do my channel as a job or even plan to. If someone says something really mean that isn't constructive criticism on my video I just delete the comment. They don't know me and I never take it personal. I remove their comment since it does nothing positive for anyone else reading it. I allow open opinions but if it's non-constructive they're out. I don't upload videos to have idiots tell me they hate me for no other reason than they didn't like my video. It's all for fun for me. Some other guy really hated that I played Mass Effect 3 multiplayer mostly in silver and bronze matches and would bitch and moan disliking all my videos leaving really stupid posts in all my videos until I played gold. I do play Gold matches from time to time but I wasn't about to just upload gameplay of gold to give into this selfish pricks demands. Instead I promptly told him "if you want gold matches go and upload them yourself". He never did respond after that when he came to the realization he was being a dick to a real person and figured out if he wanted content he'd have to make it himself or be grateful for those who do provide such entertainment. So if TB wants out good for him. YT should be fun, not a terrible presence you have to deal with every day of your life. If my YT channel got too annoying I wouldn't hesitate to shut it down. I mainly have it for my friends so when I travel or aren't at home I can show them gameplay of stuff. I use my channel for ME. It was made to archive my gameplay so I could show friends and when I wanted a blast from the past I could watch it online. It took off though and has grown to a small community. I never cared for fame or a following but I guess people subscribe to channels they like the content with so I continue to upload for those few who are enjoying the content. In the end though if no one watched thats ok, they were meant just for me anyways.

          • Wow, that was surprisingly deep. It shows me that I should be nicer to 343i and any big internet guru or celeb As a wise man once said, if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all

              That's too bad. I don't see why TB would react like this due to negativity though. I think Boogie has it waaaay worse.

              • That's a shame. I never really watched TotalBiscuit, but I've seen a couple of videos of his and he seems like a really nice guy. If this is a permanent change, I wish him the best during his future endeavors.

                People are nasty when they figure there's no consequences to what they do. It's a shame really but what matters is he does what's bed0st for him. I love his videos and will continue to support it with my viewership.

              • Did you just... edit and change the entire point of the thread? O.o (aside from proving an asinine, childish point to someone else, why?) Also, who cares what some YouTube blogger does/does not do with the comments on his "channel"? This is not "News", OP.

                • You should've just left the thread the way it was. Yeah, there's probably another thread on it, but obviously you didn't know that. Everyone was fine with it anyway... Except for one guy.

                • Good job posting this when there is already a huge thread about it. I'm sure you already knew that though, this is just another cry for attention.
