Hello, all!
I was watching Nick Rekieta's streams and he mentioned this site. I wanted to check in on what's being discussed here and what's being recorded.
I have a few questions about some periphery information.
1) Did anyone catch Adam Sheehan's first tweet about Samantha Inoue-Harte's SWATting?
He posted two tweets that said the following:
"Someone in the anime community who spoke up about the Vic had their door kicked in by a SWAT team this morning after someone made a fake 911 call. They said they stand with Vic on the call. This garbage person is on your team
#StandWithVic people.
#KickVic "
He then tweeted "Luckily the person who got their door kicked in was not hurt. The police apologized for the act and are helping to fix the door."
I know he deleted these tweets and replied with this:
2) I noticed earlier in the thread someone mentioned Shatner and his reaction to Vic Mignogna and Star Trek Continues, are you aware of this tweet?
Someone brought up the tweet that broke the camel's back, but Shatner DID block ALL of the cast members of Star Trek Continues.
This includes Chris Doohan, the son the actor who played Scotty aka James Doohan:

3) Would Rooster Teeth's situation with David "Knuckles Dawson" Dreger be relevant?
I'm assuming everyone is aware of what I'm talking about.
If not, here is a summary and some links to catch people up to speed:
David "Knuckles Dawson" Dreger was an early community contributor to Rooster Teeth's Achievement Hunters, similar to Jeremy Dooley and Matt Bragg prior to being hired. He was very involved in the community.
Here he is in one of the early Achievement Hunter updates:

He also provided voice work for background characters in Red vs. Blue, Rooster Teeth's flagship show:

Sometime in 2011, Rooster Teeth inexplicably cut all ties with him and left fans dumbfounded over the situation.
Here is Achievement Hunter's Jack Patillo (rhymes with armadillo) in AMA on reddit confirming Rooster Teeth's company policy on Dreger:

Red vs. Blue's episode 2 of Season 11 contained a memorial message to Dreger in the outro:

On April 10, 2015, former Rooster Teeth employee Brandon "Fragger" Light revealed why Rooster Teeth ostracized Dreger
(the original no longer exists):
Wow. You did everything right. It also sounds like you, Jack and Geoff help protect the victim.

Thankfully, someone did screencap the original post:
Fragger responded in a reddit post to clarify himself:

Since members of this forum are aware of JewWario, Funimation's list of degenerates (Scott Freeman and Illich Guardiola), and Gerard Jones (translated Dragon Ball for ViZ Media in the early 2000s), might as well air out Rooster Teeth's dirty laundry.
