I know I’m wasting my breath here (because it’s probably not even real) but today was the height of pathetic from a 41-year old man for me.

“The first week of the month is the worst as I have 2 big bills due!”

Then do what the 99.9% of the world does and SAVE MONEY for things you know are due.

“But by then other bills have wiped out my YouTube payment”

I realise this is a novel concept, but also do what 99.9% of us do and CUT YOUR COSTS to a level you can manage. Don’t sit there grinning about how you’ve bought another streaming service or another tv on Amazon credit then tell us it’s our job to pay for it.
Either retardation or narcissism (or both) but the guy has serious mental problems that this doesn’t even occur to him.

Also, looking at the time it’s about now he’ll be reading the farms in a gin-fuelled daze - 👋 Kill yourself Phil. You’ve failed as a human and even your wife doesn’t seem bothered about you. After how you talk about them I’m not sure your parents would be either.
 
Any theories as to why his support has dropped off so dramatically in the past month? Days under $100 in tips used to be a rarity even back in January, now they're quickly becoming the new standard. Has the state of the economy finally caught up with the pigroach or does it go deeper?

It’s always gone in monthly cycles, though admittedly it usually picks up at the start of the month when the SS payments clear to disabled people.

I’ve been starting to think either the dents don’t like Ree-acks (they want to watch a game) or even they have caught on to the double dipping and aren’t wanting to get involved with it.
 
I'm probably a late faggot because I'm stepping in and out of the vortex but didn't Dave want a "prominent/big" content creator to interview him? That Screw Attack podcast gets less views than DSP's own videos.
It wasn't supposed to be an interview originally. DSP just wanted to hang out with Craig and pretend to have friends but the damn dirty detractors are now forcing him to explain where the load went again :story:

He never had to and never will just because everyone gets their checks at the start of the month. This whole segment was bizarre for one reason: He basically tells his audience that he only needs support in the first week and then can live off $50 streams for the rest of the month. And it's the detractors fault!

Paypig support is cyclical. Welfare checks come in lump sums not dripfeed. Its a massive waste of time to pay any heed to short term fluctuations. Lost count of the number of times some one makes an excited post about the 'end' of DSP due to downward dip #32433422. Wake us up when piggy suffers a year or more of low contributions.

That is true but he has never had a streak of slow days quite like this before, he even experienced his first ever back-to-back <$100 tip day this week. February was also his lowest month on record, barely making it past the $8k mark. We'll see how it goes this week, if support continues to be slow I think we'll be heading into new begging territory. If not, well, there's always something else to laugh at.

I’ve been starting to think either the dents don’t like Ree-acks (they want to watch a game) or even they have caught on to the double dipping and aren’t wanting to get involved with it.
That's also true, the severe dip in support directly correlates with the DSP Reacts channel reveal, though it could be a coincidence since support has been consistently trending downwards for quite a while now.

Though I really do think his decision to move away from gaming will alienate his remaining fans (other than the truly dented). Long term supporters of creators don't tend to like change and usually move on as their favorite creator switches direction, though the creator's loss of old fans is usually offset by gaining new fans if their new content is decent enough. Piggy no longer has the ability to gain new fans as we all know, so he's put himself in quite a precarious position.
 
Still looks like he's crying
Update: He changed it, unless Youtube changes automatically generated thumbnails and I just never noticed.

We haven't see the pickup this month, but to early to say anything really.

And yes several of the diehards have said many times they don't like the react stuff.

First two months haven't been great with Feb being the worst we have on record. But I agree it's waaay to early to start doing victory laps.

I will just say that the numbers are "interesting" and unless a whale steps up pretty soon to save their "internet daddy" we might be getting some black begging shirt reeemergecies.

Several of the few remaining true and honest fans have said many times that they don't like it, and have not tuned in or stayed for the reacts.

Yesterdays react was $53 as far as I remember. And even his best one is still under $20/hour. Way more than Phil deserves but NOT what he is aiming for.

Phil is clearly hoping to replace most if not all gameplay with: Level 1 phadcast-Axe Da khang-DSPReacts and expect $200 a day in tips as the minimum with $300 as the actual goal as well as 500 members on BOTH channels.

Problem is neither the regular dents nor the whales seems to be on board with this plan.

EDIT.

Been out of the vortex for a bit. It sounds like Phil is doing the thing I thought he'd do at least two years ago and pivot towards anything but streaming games. I thought the dents would buy-in, though, and we'd see Phil take a more LTG "Pay me to turn on the gameplay/facecam" level findom streaming as they paid him the same for even less effort. I'm legit shocked that his retards have standards. I thought they'd throw money at their favorite clown no matter what he put out.

But I agree that its still technically the first week of March. Some people probably get checks on Tuesday. (has anyone ever had thier payday be a Monday? That feels weird.)

What load? You think he can still squeeze one out?

But damn looks like Phil has to tighten the belt soon. Or stop feeding his wife so much shit and start cooking. Oh wait....
 
We already know DSP has dents across the whole world (Slayer). So probably gotta tone down the us defaultism a bit.
Correct. Going by the pigs own snout, around 50% of the dents are US the rest are primarily Eurofags(like me) and aussies making up the bulk.

As far as I can find out in the UK payments are on Tuesday either every month or every 2 weeks depending on the tugboat.

In my neck of the woods it the last bankday of the month for all benefits. Australia pays out unemployment every week (Wednesday) and disability ever 2 weeks.

Again anybody actually having real knowledge please correct me, as the only dates and methods I know about in any deapth is the Scandinavian.

Long story short there should be a steady trickle of money going to Phil as the various tugboats is payed out over the whole month.

They cut off the extra 95 bucks in food stamps people get, dents need tendies and dewies to fuel their tarding, dsp only provides tard validation. A hungry tard tummy takes precedence.
