DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[blahblahblah678]

Just watch the first minute and then close it. That's what I do if a video goes on and on.

He's got another version that clocks in at just over 3 minutes.

 

[Guess i'm toxic now!]

The paypig bounties should have no camping clauses. This faggot wants to make 1st person shooters into chill time wasters, and it’s gay as hell.

KingJad can make it as long or short as he wants, I have no issues with that. I just mean if anyone struggles watching 10 minutes, then you can just watch the first minutes of the vid.

This whole thing is so typical DSP.

1. do something stupid that might get him in trouble
2. berate and ban people telling him he's doing something stupid that might get him in trouble
3. secretly walk it back and act like it never happened
4. ban people bringing up the fact he secretly walked it back and is acting like it never happened

It's such a scummy, cowardly way of handling things. Absolutely disgraceful.

You missed the step where he lies and/or plays dumb about it. "Tee oh ess?. What's that mean?"

reminiscent of how he insulted and banned people accusing him of using a guide for elden ring, later admitted to have been using a guide, then insulted (called them liars) and banned people for accusing him of denying using a guide.

In the Aqua Teal's video posted in the page before, if you go to the comments' section you'll see that a bunch of people are encouraged to report him for TOS violation, which is good and all when he actually breaks the rules. This is also being talked about in the Reddit thread.

However for those who didn't know, he was already reported like 2 weeks ago for yet another violation he committed during one of the bounty sessions, needless to say nothing happened to him.

This will be the second time in recent times that DSP gets mass reports (or a considerable amount) due to an arguably valid reason.

As unlikely as it may be it would still be interesting to see him receive some kind of punishment, like a slap on the wrist at the very least over this just to see how hard he tries to feign ignorance regarding the situation even though it's blatantly obvious why he would be getting punished.

How can an arm have zero muscle definition

I've seen people with skinny arms before or just plain skinny people or people with little to no muscle. This ain't it. This is a literal prime example of muscle atrophy. Like, striaght outta medical books atrophy.

Atrophy wouldn’t surprise me. He lives a sedentary lifestyle, drinks daily, and eats shit food via daily Doordash (highly processed fast food). His liver is likely screaming from alcohol and large amounts of sodium; all of which is problematic with a likely deficiency in potassium (from vegetables) which is required for the regulation of sodium, blood pressure, and protein synthesis. If he has high insulin resistance, this can also blunt the utilization of amino acids leading to muscle wasting.

Not sure where he's getting that. The stream is still there.

That's DSP's separately recorded (and now edited) video. If you have the direct link to his streams - what would be the VOD for a normal streamer - they show as "Video unavailable. This video is private."

If you look at the direct link for his last Warzone stream (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIgXkxD7PwA), it says... it's also private. So much for that idea.

I know DSP is bad, but I try watching other streamers, and any of the ones with a sizable audience are starting to feel less appealing. Even everyone's favorite spedrunner Carcinogen feels like he's angry about having to play games; granted he's making his first playthrough on Impossible Mode, and then bitching about design decisions. Not gonna say he's on the same level as Phil; but he gives off the vibe he hates what he does to make a living.

You're right, however in my opinion, his prior offense was more egregious since it appears he wasn't cautious enough to understand the bounty challenge (he interpreted the message in his own way), then insulted and pushed the viewer to donate suggesting an unban if done.

That is as close as you get to the fire while not being insanely blatant, yet Youtube allegedly checked the reports but did nothing. So this time he has even less of a chance of being punished, from my point of view.

@TankMelee is right, I'll take the liberty to tag @KingjadVCMP because DSP can make it into ammo, while completely missing the point of the criticism.

The link itself is also in DSP's own community tab, the stream is private right now, not deleted.

These people are usually teenagers when they decide playing games as an occupation is what they want to do. None of them have any comprehension of doing anything for the next 50 years, much less the prospect of other people paying middle-aged men to do it. Hell, just ask any professional game tester how much they like video games after a year or two.

This is why i say that if your hobby becomes your job, eventually youll learn to hate it or lose the spark that it once had. Of course i understand that making money through something you like, but eventually youll lose any spark of emotion that you had once had.

 

[Dona Morte]

@Agent Proper Maybe we should start a thread of just his greatest hits like these.
Something that makes this easily browsable and has no further discussion, so it does not get clogged up.
The Pigglah hat is just the icing on the cake.
Despite this comment One Minute Sam did NOT get banned. Hmmm.

Are there any pro game streamers DSP's age? This will be all their ultimate fate.

 

[Corpun]

It's fucking insane that streamer subreddit has the gayest rules, because Phil deserves to be highlighted there for this and several other reasons more often than he has. Fucking reddit jannies are the most retarded people in the world.

Also I highly highly doubt that Phil loves his job as much as he likes to say he does. It can be very possible to love what you do as your occupation, but you really need that passion and love for that field of work. Regardless if Phil ever truly did love video games at one point in time, he looks like absolute garbage on his streams and constantly moans and complains whenever he gets to the slightest bit of inconvenience, multiple times over.

And he's been like this for how long? Over a decade, it's inconceivable to not hate anything about playing video games almost every day for most of your working life as a source of income, you're bound to dread it at some point, no matter how much of a "hardcore gamer" you think you are, burnout is very real.

Also another piece of evidence that supports my claim is that Phil has said himself he never plays games during his off time, he only does it on his streams (hint hint, because he can make money doing it). As far as we know he's admitted to playing some mobile games here and there (totally not Champions), but are they even considered real games? Ehh not really, most of them are like Bejewelled clones or button tapping simulators with flashy gacha-esque mechanics.

Chess streamers, there are definitely people even older than Phil who stream. Some of them are a bit snarky, but they're also entertaining.

 

[Kheapathic]

I'm pretty sure Dr. Disrespect is around Phil's age if not older. There's also some OG FGC guys; Justin Wong, Aris, Max Dood, and Valle all stream, and while they're all mostly around the same age, Valle was in the old man 40+ range several years ago. Aris also gets a fuck ton more of viewers than Phil, Max does too, but he's also married and has a daughter, Wong is also married with a daughter too. I think Valle does it on the side and has a normal "job," but I see him on Twitch regularly so I'd consider him pro game streamer. There's also Arturo (Sp00ky) who runs weekly tournaments; while it's more of a business he runs while others play, that should count as pro game streamer.

Just something to consider about Phil being a 40 year old streamer, and comparing him to others who are married with a child cat.
