Just like how you approached Pirate Software outside of private forum? Also he flipped out about the other party didn’t address his response in the hour after he made it. I’m sure the guy isn’t constantly on the Internet trolling reddit like Matt is.
 
What I've also noticed about him recently is that he is getting lazy with his theories. For instance, the one about tennis had completely wrong maths in terms of calculating racket strength. It probably would've only taken a few minutes to find the correct formulas (the real way to find the right numbers is WAY more complicated and probably aren't even in the same magnitude) but he was too busy reacting to the haters or working on the "MARIO IS SANS?!?!?!? Part 76" I guess...

I'm pretty irritated that he thought it was okay to not link the games they're playing in the Livestreams. I know he typically didn't bother, but imo the games you play could use some extra boost of players just from you linking it. Guess I'm not that shocked he is rather selfish.

Also I realized he's crying in that tweet he made to LegalEagle didn't get pinned immediately. How entitled do you think you are, Matt?

It just sounds like he's moving further away from giving a shit about the channel. I don't follow him closely but early on it sure seemed like he was a typical "do it all" youtuber who researched, edited, and starred in all of his own videos. As large as that channel grows it seems like it's moved past the "we have a small team but I've got my hands on the reins at all times" into "I don't double check shit except my bank account" stage of his youtube trajectory.

Really, all we need to do is look at a few things - Like, if you look at this situation, you can see that he's willing to push the blame onto the two nameless guys who work the livestreams.

And you can see this in his Persona 4 video, where he got called out for a lot of problems in the video, where he drops Mother's Shill (Basement) and one of his friends behind why there are faults in the video.

He's the face of the channel, but at this point he doesn't want to do work any more, take all the credit, and then when trouble arises, he'll throw his staff under the bus. Unfortunately, like that dumb furry wannabe MangaKamen said in his latest video about this topic, Matpat is still responsible for his employees. Like a manager and his employees, if an employee under a manager's watch screws up royally, the manager is still responsible.

...Is apologizing or owning up even the tiniest bit to something that is such non-issue to fix just complete poison to anyone creating content nowadays? Or is MatPat just this fucking inept.

The worst part? This wasn't even as egregious as what happened with Toby and Pirate Software, and didn't require such a condescending response. If we were to take MatPat at his word and he did just happen to draft and write the script beforehand in a way that was similar to LegalEagle's video, he could've just said it was pure coincidence and added the exact same information (screenshots added to said e-mails/drafts would've also helped his case immensely) and left it at that.

Instead, he decides to take it one step further and grandstand his opposition, talking down (to a lawyer who's well-versed in copyright infringement, mind you) about how he disappointed them and how he's in the right because he brought in some random unnamed "subject-matter expert" from who-knows-where to state "FACTS", most of which can easily be found by quickly searching "Fortnite lawsuit" into Google, and then has the gall to tell LegalEagle that he should be coming to him for his stance on where these issues lie. With a small slight at his workplace just to really flex his master theory crafting genius.

You would think for someone who's had so many controversies like this, he'd learn to stop digging that hole for a little bit and not go for the bulldozer instead.

"Justin Petersen' and 'friends'.

That's what's listed on the Fortnite video.

Fun little fact, most lawyers have a website, could've probably linked to Mr. Petersen here's website to prove his point earlier.

Then again, when you list "and friends' as a part of a legal counsel, that already makes me raise an eyebrow.


Also, a little off topic, but if you go into that comment chain of MatPat's comment on Legal Eagle's vid, you'll be welcomed to some of the most fabulous jerking off. Stephanie might just get a little jealous seeing so many people going after Mat's dick and how they're so eager to swallow anything the guy says as fact.

Look, despite what I think about MP's content being garbage tier, it's seriously brainwashed his fans into believing ANYTHING he says as fact. He's got proof of these e-mails? Okay.

Gonna share them?

No?

Not even have screenshots linked?

No?

WELL! LET ME JUST TAKE YOU AT YOUR WORD THERE BUDDY!

Jeezus, we're barely into six days of the new year, and while this isn't as bad as the opener we had last year on YT, this is still brain meltingly stupid.

It almost sounds like you're exaggerating, but no, his fans literally think he can do no wrong.

the only possible excuse for this is the fact that for a while youtube wouldn't promote any videos with external links, which matpat would probably see and change, but I don't know if he has ever done it
 
I don’t know why everyone was pissed that it took a few hours for legaleagle to address Matt’s comment. The man is a working lawyer, he could have any number of obligations more important than his youtube side gig.
I’m also shocked at how many people think he did some injustice by bringing it up. The guy even gave Matt the benefit of a doubt. It would be hilarious to see if Matt tries to do something legally against him though. I kinda wanna see him get his teeth punched in by the court system
 
Knowing Matt, any sort of hate forming on him he will try to address, but he's done it so poorly that I don't expect any video he makes on this to be professional. I mean he cried because his comment wasn't pinned immediately, c'mon now.

There are some fans that are seeing the light and realizing Matt is being a dumbass, but there's still a whole field of whiteknights that will defend him even when he's in the wrong.

I just sense a livestream about this coming up, or he's going to discuss these issues somehow outside of his twitter. It's attention to him afterall.

I know I shouldn't be wishing for it... But is anyone else hoping for a Sans is Ness situation? Where Matpat will take the audience aside at the beginning of a video, play dramatic music for 4 minutes, and show off that acting degree that he used to brag about?


Also, I've been seeing on twitter some people saying that Matpat used to steal theories... Although, when I hear that, I'm a little confused. At best, I remember Matpat taking the Legend of Zelda: Link is Dead theory. Are there more instances?

If you recall the theory regarding Bill is inside of Stan in Gravity Falls, apparently that was ripped off entirely from someone who made a script regarding it prior to his video, and didn't receive any credit regarding this theory.

This video here:



Edit: this is the video that was towards the speel regarding the stolen theory

If I remember correctly, that was done by InsideAMind, right? The script I mean, and he made a video calling MatPat out on it.
 
It’s kinda messed up that in his public apology, he can’t help but be petty and go “who dare you not immediately tag my important comment”.

Yeah he was the one who initially did the script for that theory, though apparently now the guy works for Game Theory? I don't know, but that was a huge deal that MattPatt used a script and didn't even credit the source he got it from.

I mean, Matt is pretty scummy when it comes to his theories.
