Rooster Teeth / Achievement Hunter / Let's Play / Funhaus / Inside Gaming - The company was resurrected.

What is Talent Partnership Representation even supposed to be? It sounds made up.

Code word for "employees that are actually used as tax write offs as it saves us money in the long run."

Allah is displeased, she cannot enter Jannah serve as a pure maiden to the righteous. She and VIZ will be struck down for this indecency, InInsha'Allah.

Read that as Alanah and was very confused as to when her life had taken a dramatic turn.

My guess is that it's someone who "onboards" Talent onto the platform. Things like "this is what we need, this is what we offer, this is how it works" and so on.

She also has her own streamily (https://streamily.com/lindsayjones) - maybe I'm not a celebrity person but the idea of spending $65+ for an autograph makes me viscerally ill. Some of the numbers on there are insane, but I imagine it works.

Can she sell that RWBY merch though? Like, she is the voice of Ruby Rose, but she doesn't own the rights to the IP, couldn't someone sue her for selling items related to an IP she has no rights to?

Woah there, lets not downplay how badly Game Kids Trevor fucked things up.

Trevor isn't the sole reason, but he's definitely one of the biggest jenga block in the tower responsible for RoosterTeeth's collapse, outside of Game Kids. He could not take the heat and demanded the kitchen slow down for him or he'd shut it all down. So naturally, when the kitchen slows down, everything else slowed down.

Ray moving to Seattle, if I remember he's moving mostly cause he doesnt really hangout with anyone in Austin and in Seattle he'll be closer to his mods. Who are his friends and he likes Seattle

That, and no income tax, which is definitely a boon for self employment. Surprised he didn't move sooner to someplace like Florida or Washington. Seattle suburbs isn't so bad, it's mostly downtown and seattle proper that's a slum.

I guess Ray is a bit like me in that he just saw work as work and while he was good with folks back then, your former coworkers will pretty much stop interacting with you the second you're gone.

A lot of -normal- people sperate work from fun. I hardly ever make friends at work because it just leads to problems. Something the folks at RT never quite came to grasp with. Ray definitely had that revelation of "just because we have fun doesn't mean it's less of a soul sucking corpo job" upon upper mangement forcing him to give up his account and no one of his peers, Geoff especially, never once saying "why are we doing this?", instead Geoff was probably busy chugging down a bottle of Jack with no fucks to give.

Not really. The gain in no income tax is lost in high sales and property taxes, especially in Seattle. Which has also become a total shitshow in the last few years outside of downtown due to criminal negligence on the part of those governing it and fent zombie homeless.

So he’s really just moving there to hang out with his mods? Sheesh. I was trying to be a bit optimistic but now I’m seriously wondering why even bother.

Goes to show how he'd rather hang out with his moderators friends rather than his former unhinged ex-colleagues from RT. I'd do the same, not gonna lie.

I was shocked to learn he decided to move their now of all times. Its basically turned into the rainy version of LA, less fires but no beachfront worth going to (which is the only non-insane reason to go to LA).

I don't know why its not as ingrained into our collective psyche as a terrible shithole like LA and New York are.

People really have forgotten about the BLM riots, or how that bullshit CHAZ/CHOP shit happened in Seattle. And now Ray wants to sit his ass in a house next to a literal dumpster fire. Come on bro.

It's the same exact mental illness that drives people (mostly women and fags) to think that places like London and Paris are wonderful.

And if I remember correctly as well. This will also make ray size down his merch store as well. Since he would he would have to move everything to Seattle.

Honest question, what specifically did Trevor do that fucked up the brand that much? I stopped watching after Ray left, but there were one or two years after that with just Jeremy and Matt when it was OK before the new blood came rushing in right?

 

[indomitable snowman]

He was a thin skinned bitch. That's all I remember.

He became the boss. No fucking idea WHY they made him the boss of AH, yet they did, and he was the boss while all the bad shit was going on.

There is nothing which can better sum up how shit he was as a boss than the actual collapse of AH: He decided to shut it down - yes, AH was dead like half a year before RT itself - because he, Micheal, Alfredo, and some Asian dude they hired wanted to make a SKETCH COMEDY channel instead, named Dogbark, which immediately failed because they were awful at comedy. I’d link it, yet Trevor and the Asian got kicked out, all the videos were deleted, and it was rebranded to an LP channel for Alfredo and Micheal, instead.

Originally, Trevor was given a hazing by the others at AH, like Lindsey. But Trevor, being thin skinned and unable to take any sort of playful jabbing, went to the higher ups and told them to put a stop to it or he'd quit. Being the husband of the office fleshlight, they were forced to give into his request.

The reason why the clip of Ray's "Game's Kid Trevor?" is so notable is not only because Ray is unfiltered, but because Michael immediately becomes uncomfortable knowing that he'll never hear the end of it from Trevor for that day, if not week, of what a fuck that was even though Trevor will whine that he did everything right.

I didn't know that Trevor shut it down holy shit. And then he re-enacted Game Kids all over again, only it was a crappy sketch comedy show that failed to garner attention because it was probably being compared to old RT shorts, which were actually funny. Or even actually amusing like Arizona Circle. They also hired two black dudes who they dragged onto the set of their closure announcement, and they just looked awkward as fuck.

London can be great if you have money - like minimum low six figure income. You will still be living in a shoebox, but at least it will be a shoebox in a nice area. Less than that and you're sharing a room, living in a shoebox in a shit area dodging muggers, or living 1-2 hrs by train outside London in a commuter belt town (i.e., not living in London).
