I've always theorized that one step of eradicating DSP from the interwebs was, unfortunately, killing our massive free PR firm for him. We are all part of the same compost heap.

But I'd never suggest it because it sounds like an op, and it ruins the point of the site. It would never happen anyway.
 
Your guess is as good as mine, I think he was banned once during a blackgout stream but unbanned after. Maybe @LyteSydeByll would be able to fill us in better than I can
Dakky got banned during Black Out when he wished Master Saruwatari, who was a DSP mod at the time, happy birthday. Da_Chancla had a screenshot of Dakky in my Discord and used that as evidence to keep Dakky banned. After getting unbanned, Dakky regularly started to ask Phil questions (without tipping or cheering) and got answers. He has done it so frequently that Phil probably thinks he's a fan. It's reached Derich-levels of free shoutouts from Phil.
 
I hate to necro a well-meaning but ultimately doomed thread, but what about this:

One possible avenue to reduce troll attention ($$$) for Pigroach would be for the all the big detractors (Snort, Soma, Huth) to stop highlighting troll cheers/donations/subs. Just stop giving the attention-craving trolls the attention that Phil will never give them. This would require them individually to agree that, by highlighting each time some idiot throws a quarter at Phil, they are enabling it and encouraging more copycats. And that this is bad long term. Wings and Phil have both said quite bluntly that a big motivator for trolls is that they hope they'll get a shoutout in a troll upload the next day. They're 100% right. They are clout chasers.

Of course in hoping for any kind of coordination, we're already nigh into Fantasy Land. It doesn't help that the reason a lot of viewers tune in to these channels is they want to see shit like 'PhilhasGoutLMAO did a 25 bit cheer: ur dumb phil kill yourself your marriage is a scam kill jasper GRRRR' messages flash on the screen. So they have a direct, financial interest in letting trolls throw quarters at Phil and showcasing it.

So it's a cyclical thing with zero honor among thieves detractors.
 
To me it's just pathetic to spend any amount of money in trying to bait DSP, or any streamer for that matter, just to let people who would probably hate you in real life, make more content out of your unoriginal crap.

My well intentioned advice is that if you enjoy troll tipping DSP, you might as well get into findom, where the scum belongs.

At this point in time I'm quite sure a fair amount of these troll tips are chargebacks. While Phil claims to never lose said chargebacks, we've seen him admit to even refunding people, and some people came out with proof they won chargebacks.
These small tips don't make much of a difference anyway and they often cause drama or salt.
 
Can we shut down the dsp forum for a month or two to see how it affects the DSPhere? I have the feeling the autistic livetweeting of subs, cheers and tips is co-morbid with the "generosity" of DSP's "Fuck da trolls" whales who lurk here with the intention of blue-balling a-logs who are a little too eager to see Phil have a shitty day.

Don't get me wrong people like Actually do good work tallying up the totals on a more general basis but this bitter posting about how salty he is over low contributions, only to get salty yourself when he gets said contributions is... pretty exceptional.

There's a whole thread for this topic and it's still on the first page. Spoiler alert: not going to happen.

This idea has been done to death. Nobody here is actually mad that DSP is getting money. We're all having fun mocking Sausage Rex and his kingdom of slavs and they're good enough to provide us with free entertainment six days a week if not more often. If how people here behave bothers you that much its much easier for everyone if you just leave and leave us to our autistic giggling.

I think it’s far beyond this forum at this point. I mean yeah there’s those occasional losers who claim they tip to beat us, but I think today’s streamed proved his whales and big dick contributors will step up when he lays on the guilt tripping. This dude was on track for a record low stream today and I doubt this forum having a laugh about it was the deciding factor over his genuine begging.

For whatever reason this dude just attracts losers with deep pockets that step up when he begs for their money.
