DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[PyroAlert]

What isn't normal, however, is to have a consistent +1000/-1000 with no variables.

It is a simple explanation. Once you get over a few thousand subs, social blade only shows increments of 1000. Literally if Phil dropped 2 subs to go to 194,998 subs, it would show a drop of 1000 I believe.

Phil is not buying subs, at least not YouTube subs. He is buying Khet 3 or 4 foot long meatball sub sandwiches on white bread with cheddar and Swiss cheese, with bacon. The bread is not toasted because then it becomes too hard and cuts Khet’s gums. Phil hates when Khet demands even more bacon on the sandwich, because bacon is expensive. The lard goes directly to Khet’s thighs and neck.

Phil is buying more in game currency for WWE Champions.

This is correct, and it has to do with YouTube changing how it shows subs. It used to show the exact number (or something very close). Not too long ago, they changed it to where, as you get more subs, you lose granularity in the reported number. So if you have 69 subs, it shows 69. But if you have 6969, it might only show 6.9k. If you have 696,696, it will show 696k.

lol. And twitch looks right past his faggotry to reply to this guy:

I would call this a sign from god to get the pigroach to stop, but I'm pretty sure god gave up on him years ago.

Now god is just mocking him.

Reminds me of the way Phil reports his tips.

Okay, so I'll humour that.

Then how is it that Phil only gains the amount of subs needed for YouTube/Social Blade to care during the first/last week of the month, with nothing else inbetween? All other channels I checked had growth and losses throughout entire months, week by week, so it isn't as if this data is only published once a month. It is continuous, hence less spiking being normal.

 

[SkippyLongbottom]

It has online co-op. I think there's a pretty solid consensus that next to the tractors and the trolls, Phil hates that his fanbase is comprised of legitimate s. I have strong doubts about if he's ever gonna do that Fireteam playthrough with his members unless he can pick a group that's gonna be remotely close to what you or I would call "normal". See how uncomfortable he is from that one video where a fan goes on mic during an Ask the King video or something.

Besides, the appeal of It Takes Two is about the interaction of the players where you mess around, clown on each other, and there are even segments in the game where you can do a little griefing and you can expect that Phil will never stand for that kind of interaction from another streamer, or even from his most loyal of mods because he'll think it's gonna make him look like some kind of a nudnik, you fucking mohrans, I'm not a dunce or some children's entertainer, okay?

Finally, his gin-addled brain is already doing its best to not completely fuck up a game that he's playing by using all his energy into following the walkthrough that he watched for the game. Adding the management of collabing with another person on top of that is just too much. Unless he plays It Takes Two with SpedTrekker now that I'd want to see.

I'm guessing those LEGO games with Panda gave him bad memories so he avoids doing that anymore.

Maybe his account is so old that it's on some other database that updates on the end of the month or maybe his account has so many videos it has its subs processed differently. Youtube is so big it has to do strange things to run properly. Sometimes it will add and remove sub totals that don't coincide to actual users because those numbers are spread across so many different systems and it takes time to modify that.

It costs $50 for 1k subs per month. You really think he's going to do that when he could spend that money on WWE instead? He refuses to spend any money at all on his channel, not even for games.

It's all the mentioned reasons and more. TBH, co-op is an absolute lose-lose for Phil, always has been and always will be. He can't afford being upstaged, especially not by the paypigs, he can't afford to rip into them like he wants to (why do you think Derich gets special treatment?), he can't afford to set a precedent of doing co-op games because there's only so much he can take even without having tards to play with, he has bad memories from Leanna, he has bad memories from previous other co-op sessions wherein he had to hold in his toxicity and/or got upstaged, he doesn't like working with people (there's a reason he has people tip him to tell him what to do and he either does it or doesn't), the list just goes on.

The only people who get anything out of a DSPGaming co-op session is the detractor community because there's no way for it to be anything other than the kind of dumpster fire we dream of, and don't think he doesn't know that.

It costs $50 for 1k subs per month. You really think he's going to do that when he could spend that money on WWE instead? He refuses to spend any money at all on his channel, not even for games.

Plus, the only thing his subscriber count on his YT channel does is remind him that things used to be better so many years ago. If anything, he feels mocked by it being so high in comparison to the average attendance on his streams.

I never said that it was categorically Phil buying the subs.

If someone is willing to spend the money making sock accounts and turning them into members at $3.99 a pop (minimum, multiplied by how ever many "fans since time immemorial" members there have been this past month alone), then why wouldn't they also pay $50 a month to boost his sub count?

I don't think it's that much of a reach. I think the explanations of kooky bugged YouTube data mechanics are more of a reach.

15 minutes late to stream!
retardation starts immediately!
chats dead!
SOUNDS GOOD?

lmao. he just rolled out of bed

 

[Nineteenlevels]

Phil is insanely obnoxious, even if you didn't know about all the bad shit he's done, if you lived with him, had to listen to his rants I'd end up killing myself just so I didn't have to hear him blab anymore.

Hey Phil, if you're reading this, the biggest reason why you can't grow your audience is because you do disgusting shit like this and it makes people want to fucking retch.

 

[Forbidden Math]

DSP needs to let Geoff Keighley fuck khet while he watches already. I've never heard a man confess his love for another man he doesn't even know like this before.

 

[Sup3r]

If an a log wants to waste time to give Phil money with a dumb message attached, or even be in chat, they have to sub to his channel. Combine it with the obvious socks being used to bump up to his member goals and it's obvious that's where the subs come from.

And let's say that it is botting, it still wouldn't be Phil himself doing it. If it was, he wouldn't have had the meltdown in August and he wouldn't have failed in October. Reaching the goals is an ego thing for him. If he was botting, he'd bot so that he'd never miss a goal.

 

[Sparkletor 2.0]

Very odd that he can have 300+ members, 300+ viewers and only 6 members in the chat.

 

[GiveMeTheMoney]

He must have went seriously overboard with the gin night last night.

This person would be paying 50 dollars every other month, and for what gain? The number has been ~195k, it's not even pushing it over 200k what return does this person get from paying $50 every other month to have the numbers fluctuate between 194 and 195k, a fluctuation of 0.5%. No one would do that.

They'd have to do this on the exact same day every other month, because it's not continuous, just go through the hassle of purchasing those subs manually again and again for years.

Probably downed an entire 1.5 litre bottle of gin after being ignored by Twitch. Looks like that checkmark is just for show
