I believe that the reason dsp doest have iniative to do X thing or get Y thing for his streams is because he i afraid of failure/being made fun of. Thats why he only does things when he has no other choice or gets asked alot by his dents.
You're 100% right. I've mentioned this before, but Phil is a strong candidate for having Avoidant Personality Disorder (AVPD), which is a cluster C of personality disorder, which is correlated to low self-esteem, anxiety, and fear. Now, we know Phil's ego is as shallow as a puddle of mud, but Phil shows fear in interacting with people that he cannot have control over. For example, I remember that clip when he was playing a beta of COD - I can't remember which one - and when the voice chat turned out, and it was two people talking, his face went into total shock and fear. It was two friends that were talking, but you could tell Phil was SHOCKED and went quiet for a few minutes. Also, let's never forget his neighbor telling him to "Shut up", which he did for a minute and half, until he felt comfortable and went "No, you shut the fuck up! Ack ack ack!"

Like I mentioned before, I am NOT a clinician, nor can I officially clinically say "Oh, someone is this." We know Phil will NEVER get the right help, because it's not him, it's everyone else. One of the things Phil shows CLEAR signs of AVPD is...
  • Being overly concerned about criticism or disapproval.
  • May be reluctant to become involved with others unless they know for sure that others will like them.
  • Experiencing extreme anxiety (nervousness) and fear in social settings and relationships. This may lead them to avoid activities or jobs that involve being with others.
  • Being shy and self-conscious in social situations due to a fear of doing something wrong or feeling embarrassed.
  • Being overly concerned about criticism or disapproval.
  • Seldom trying anything new or taking chances
Sound like someone we know? Hint hint!

Phil is comfortable being where he is, because he is scared of branching out for fear of social embarrassment. It's why when Machinima said that they wanted him to team up with other partners at the time, he went "Uh, why?" It's why he turned down the 50K from Keemstar, it's why when he went to Las Vegas, he didn't go out to party, drink, etc...instead, he held himself up in his hotel room to play Street Fighter and if he did go out, it was to eat and go back to his hotel room.

It took Phil 10 YEARS to get fightcade going, when most people are quick to adapt and pivot to change, but Phil hates doing anything that breaks him out of his comfort zone, because his ego can't take it. He's comfortable begging, he's comfortable doing operant conditioning. Also, I do think Phil practices things that are done by cult leaders.

In cult psychology, there is term called the BITE model. The BITE model consists of Behavior, Information, Thought, and Emotion. We know Phil has a apology fetish - even if you dumped THOUSANDS of dollars to him, the MOMENT you get out of line a la MajorRiot, he EXPECTS an apology in the form of a email, and you get unbanned.

In Behavior, one of the things that stands out is
  1. Rewards and punishments used to modify behaviors, both positive and negative.
For example, if you say something that even OFFENDS him in the SLIGHTEST, you get easily banned...unless you're Derich. Like I said, he expects that email of him kissing his ass, along with that nice juicy tip to make Phil happy.

In Information, Phil practices this:

  1. Compartmentalize information into Outsider vs. Insider doctrines
    a. Ensure that information is not freely accessible
    b. Control information at different levels and missions within group
    c. Allow only leadership to decide who needs to know what and when
According to Phil, all his detractors are "mouth drooling morons", who "live in their parents basements", "have no jobs, lives, friends, etc..." and everything we say is "lies". If we do say something, it was taken "out of context." Phil is the Supreme Leader, the dents are the poor shumucks who have to give to Phil, because Phil needs that money, dood!

In the Thought model, this comes to mind for Philly cheesesteak:

  1. Teaching thought-stopping techniques which shut down reality testing by stopping negative thoughts and allowing only positive thoughts, including:
    a. Denial, rationalization, justification, wishful thinking
    b. Chanting
    c. Meditating
    d. Praying
    e. Speaking in tongues
    f. Singing or humming
  2. Rejection of rational analysis, critical thinking, constructive criticism
The moment you speak out in Phil's chat, it might as well be 1984, Big Brother Phil is always watching, Oceania is at war with Eurasia. If you go to Phil and say "Hey, Phil. I think we would like to see you play more indie games...", it's brushed off until HE see's fit...and when he finally gets around to it, he wants that SAME level of support. When he doesn't get it, it's "Well, it's the games, not me. Back to the usual AAA games."

In Emotion:

  1. Manipulate and narrow the range of feelings – some emotions and/or needs are deemed as evil, wrong or selfish.
Jesus, where the fuck do I start with this? "Guys, I have no money." *leg slap*. Constant begging, constant pleading with his fans for tips, Superchats, etc...and playing on the emotionally weak and mentally stunted. Also, if you don't give Phil money, it'll make him feel bad and stressed...and how else is he going to keep his 4th place in WWE Champions, dood?

Phil is a lot of things, besides a natural asshole and prick, but I also see him practicing the things mentioned with zero regard of how anyone feels but him. It's YOUR fault him and Khat couldn't go on a honeymoon, it's YOUR fault he's struggling, not him! Want to make him feel better? Give him a $1.30 as that covers the PayPal fees, so Phil can get the whole dollar.

I'd love to see Phil answer the questions: Why do you think you deserve to make double/triple/4x what a teacher makes? Why do you think you deserve to make more than nurses make?

I know his answers would be amazing.


Ok I just got a dollar tip and....[puts head in hands] oh my gawd I can't believe this! [stall fake laugh whilst trying to think of a response] So what you're saying is streamers should not be getting any money at all, you're literally saying everyone on Youtube shouldn't be given a single donation and work for free. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard [shakes head whilst fake laughing] but thanks for the dollar [LIMB].
 
It is you Phil.png

"It's not me it's not me it's not me!"
 
Somehow, is anyone surprised that Phil doesn’t pay his editors in money, but in reaction videos? The fuck is this retarded shit?

"This meaningful reaction is worthy 20 bucks on Ultra submission".

"People love just hanging out with a Chef" this dude it's one of more delusional person that i ever seen. I'm sure that people pay Gordon Ramsay so he can sit his ass at home answering if he ever punch a bee for the 40th in a row.

It must be so frustrating getting feedback that you asked for when you already know everything better anyway. "Where is everyone? I'm finally playing what you asked for and nobody wants to watch! Oh, you think nobody would want to watch me play a great game because I'm playing it 5 years late? Fucking moulthdrooler morahn lol. Also I need at least one hype AAA release per week for day 1 inflated views."
 
This Windows rant is insane. He's losing his mind because Windows wants him to update. 'Forcing' him to update. It's like a bully coming to your house and forcing you, dood.

Insane rants two days in a row. Nice.

Edit: Now he's ranting about Pokimane and parasocial relationships. He said Pokimane shouldn't exist because she exploits lonely losers.

Doubling down on the rant---he was "just being honest" and it's your problem if you were offended. Offended by what? His asking you for money and saying you're an idiot if you don't give it to him.
Tripling down now, lmao. people's heads were 'exploding' because someone spoke honestly to them for the first time in their lives. lmao.
 
I almost have to stop watching DSP content because no matter what, it's hard to not be MATI when listening to him. Unlike other lolcows that have other quirks to them, or other reasons to dislike them, Phil Burnell is just a disgusting piece of shit as a person. Putting aside the gaming, and his ineptitude, he sucks as a person.

I was dealing with somebody at work who wouldn't take ownership of a mistake their people made, and it just triggers me like Phil does. When you're an adult, yes, some bad things that happen are not your fault, but to say ALL bad things that happen aren't is psychotic.

The easiest proof is this... if Phil was so fan fucking tastic that he thinks he is, he'd never have to beg. The only things people would make fun of is his gaming skills, and that would be it. He'd just be a bad gamer, but he goes off on these tangents where the levels of projection are just off the charts.

What's great about Phil is no matter what a-logging happens, or what people do to him, his own actions will be what is his downfall. Something he does will fuck him for good, and he won't have anybody to blame but himself. Heck, the a-logging typically happens when he eggs people on so you could say that's on him too. Ahh what a piece of shit...

Remember: Phil did nothing wrong. It’s everyone else who fucked up, and now Phil has to deal with being picked on as the little guy.
 
I'm honestly close to my cut off point too. It's the same cycle over and over, and it's why I stopped keeping up with Cyraxx. At some point I just can't come to watch the same thing time and again. He won't better himself as a person because he's never wrong, and the dents that prop him up almost surely will not learn to grow either.

Totally not realizing that he preys on literal retarded people. Phil it time go!
 
Bold move by Phil to still blame his audience for his low viewership and low revenue streams. At least he learned not to flat-out call his fans "lazy for not attending" as he did last time. He still think the same but now use a passive agressive language instead.

The American people are spoiled because their parents do not teach them the dangers of instant gratification, leading them to demand Blockbuster provide movies the instant they want the watch it instead to work for it going in a store and renting a DVD disk
