Jim Sterling / James "Stephanie" Sterling / James Stanton/Sexton & in memoriam TotalBiscuit (John Bain) - One Gaming Lolcow Thread

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Here you go.
Josh streamed it in May of 2021. I'm kind of shocked it took almost two years to go from 900,000 to 800,000. That's an awfully long time to seethe, and with no end it sight. Truly remarkable.
It's a Chinese water torture. Drip, while not big but constant, irritated him.
1k a week, 4k a month. Little by little. And it brought us here, when his sperging out video about new game, where he spent 0 seconds talking about Hogwarts legacy and instead bitched about natzee terf queen who hangs trannies by their neo-vaginas accelerated his subscriber loss.

It's the slow decline the justifies the position that the trooning isn't the whole problem, more how he's made it about himself and his constant soap-boxing about shit he never really has to follow through on... he can just tweet from the safety of his own home with zero consequence and still rake in all the hipster wellfare from patreon.

Hell I'm pretty sure it's for the best isn't it? Wouldn't you rather a smaller audience of people who are supportive of you?... but of course it's all about the numbers, which is a very corporatist view for a so-called anti-capitalist.
 
I gotta ask, is there any, like a single content creator that at least maintained the level of quality of their work after they troon out?
I can't think of a single one, they always get crazy or annoying bringing up trans pride every second or how oppressed they are since most of them were white guys their whole lives so now finally they can play the prosecution card
Shaun Spalding, who makes programming tutorials, trooned out about a year ago. But I think his content is still pretty good and informative. If you ignore his appearance it’s basically the same content as before.

Great thing about being a tranny, is everything bad is transphobia. He will never admit he fell off because he stop even trying to be interesting. Nope, its evil nazis and thats all it will ever be. One of the hallmarks of the trannydom is their complete inability to admit fault (maybe they are women after all), thus they are stuck in that loop until they die. Keffals is going through much the same thing with relation to fanbase not happy with their product, and they sink a little further, but never admit fault. Admitting fault means Trump is elected, or something gay.

A smaller audience means less money. Its not often talked about because its not as sensational as Jim's sub count but his Patreon has been bleeding subs for almost as long as his YT channel and gives a far better indicator of how people don't care for his trite content anymore, since August 2021 he's lost a few hundred dollars every month without fail and while he's still making way more money than he ever should to put it into perspective he went from $14847 in Aug21 to $11169 Jan23.

SHAUN TROONED!? I used him when learning GM. I remember when he first started using a cam. Never understood why. Good to hear he never went down the same way as Jim making it everything about himself.
 
Mandalore also has a normal job and life outside of his reviews, last I heard. In one of the rare times he was streaming, he answered questions from viewers and described his streaming/reviews as "Something I do for fun as a hobby that I can make some decent secondary income from. But it's not enough to live on, so I have an actual job"
If I remember correctly he mentioned a little while back he was officially making the majority of his income from YouTube, but yes, last I checked he still held a normal job which he dropped down to part-time.

Earlier in this thread I did some autistic analysis of his Patreon.

Trooning out didn't have anything to do with his trends. I actually show the line where Patreon and YouTube Subscribers started to slide downhill is the same.

Also, as already stated, his consistent rate of sub loss is notable, because losing 1k a week is not actually a consistent rate, it's an acceleration, he's losing a ever growing percentage of his subscribers each week.

I would disown a family member if I found out they were giving Patreon welfare to this abomination. Let nature run its course, Patreon allows it to continue down this silly path indefinitely. It would have to get a real job, log off or do a million other checks and balances we all go through that keep us sane in order to survive, right now he's just obese, smelly loser living a fantasy life constructed through the lens of far left politics and the fallout of his failed marriage.

It's quite interesting how trannies could have had a better light shone upon them if they just... acted normally, like decent human beings. Jim Sterling could have his weird tranny cake and eat it too if he just wasn't an insufferable cunt. It's like he's intentionally making trannies look worse and others are eating it up because it's an excuse for them to also act like massive, self-obsessed cunts because the big man on YouTube told them the only way to get ahead in life is to make other peoples lives about them.

He'll never be a woman, but at least be a likeable man in drag and I'd be willing to put up with you. Give me a reason to see you as anything more than a weird gender-based attention seeking diabetic troon. It's that easy. Yet he won't do that because it damages his gimmick and his entire way of life which is "everyone must suffer because I want to look like Willy Wonka and Buffalo Bill had a child who eats nothing but hog fat."

I agree completely.
I believe he could have kept his audience if he just transitioned slowly and made little to no fanfare about it - so long as he kept providing the content the viewers wanted. He's non-binary, there's no need to immediately change everything, right? He was already an eccentric fruitcake, so his viewers would have adapted had he eased into it. Going from zero to pink everywhere all the time certainly doesn't help, but that's hardly the real issue.

They subscribed to watch a rotund weirdo screech about vidya, not to watch a rotund weirdo screech about transphobia and capitalism. Your viewers don't owe you loyalty, Jim. They will watch if you give them what they want, and they will leave if you give them what they don't. You aren't entitled to their continued viewership, and by ignoring the actual reasons they're leaving and insisting they're all just hateful bigots, you're guaranteed to keep driving them away.

It's a classic case of crabs in the bucket. All the troons want to be the super special snowflake and they don't care how utterly reprehensible they have to act to accomplish it. They will drag anyone under the bus to accomplish it too, men, women, friends, family and other troons, nobody is safe in their quest.
 
The boglan content and awful wrestling shit made me stop watching. All that fat covered in skin-tight spandex was disgusting, and wtf was that autistic boglan shit about.

He's right though, the troon arc and constant troon screeching made me unsubscribe.
I stopped watching when everything began to circle back to capitalism. I get it, capitalism is the root of all evil, but constantly pointing it out to me doesn't make it stop being evil, it just screams "I hate my job, I have no original ideas on what to rant about despite there being plenty of things to talk about, oh by the way, capitalism is bad, did you know that? Did you know communism would have prevented this?". Jim's videos began to be summarized as "capitalism is bad" and the only thing I could do was:
ugh.PNG

Hope for the better.

The funniest thing about his capitalism hate is that capitalism is what made people like Jim. He is the essential capitalist down to choosing which brand of gender he wants to be, constantly obsessing about the current entertainment products and cheap made in china toys. He consumes the product gets exited about the next product while blaming capitalism for all his woes.

It's not gonna be indefinite at the rate Jim's is declining; he has 3 or 4 good years left before he's in the Spoony territory. Obviously, to a normal person, that's 3 or 4 years of saving hundreds of thousands of bucks which could leave you set for life if you're smart with your money, but Jim is not smart with his money (judging by the squalid conditions he chooses to live in) so personally I think we're in for something really great in the distant future.

It'd be bad enough to restart life now, but at his current clip Jim is gonna be about 45 by the time he has to really start worrying about finding a new line of work, and I can only imagine how much worse he is going to look by then, not to mention his declining health.

TL;DR This is a slow-burn fall, we need to be patient and enjoy the ride.

No no, I'm sure his very lucrative pro wrestling career working for shindies nobody's heard of wrestling like dogshit will surely lead to a multimillion dollar WWE contract.
