Trashfire Adam Kovic & Ryan Haywood (The Dead Pixel / Koko / Pikovic, and James Ryan Haywoood / Iron Ryan / The Mad King / Vagabond) - Rooster Teeth associates who've sent horrifying nudes behind their families' backs in what looks like a gay catfish

The problem is these content creator 'hubs' like RT find a channel like Funhaus and think they've discovered the car, when in fact they've just found the Ford F-150. A car you can come in any shape, with whatever paint you want. As long as it goes forward quickly when you push on a peddle, people will like it as a car. If you take the V8 out of an F-150 and put it on VW Golf wheels, it's not an F-150 anymore, and no one's gonna buy it.

You can swap out a late night talk show host with another and still get good ratings. YouTube channels are only good as the people who were there when it got big.

It's not far off TV cases tbh - decent hosts are dime a dozen, but keeping the magic of the line up that managed to strike gold? Not so easy. Specially if the people remaining have no clue why the original line up worked, and just assume chucking in some people they like/ are boning/ are "woke" or minority enough makes up for any of that. Worse than a show with a good host ending, is a show where the new season replaces the host with some Pop/Reality star or a no-name with 0 charisma.

It sounds like they did so much promoting of friends and partners, that they are left with not many stand out personalities (bar ones that seem to stand out for the wrong reasons...) - everyone else has been burned by shitty work practices.

This is correct, but there is another point that REALLY needs to be emphasized here.

Don't take compromising pictures of yourself.
Don't make a sex tape.

For any reason.
Ever.
Regardless of who you are doing it for.
Period.

Controlling access to data is important, but you needn't control something that doesn't even exist in the first place. Assume that all work you create on, and transmit though, the Internet is subject to a security breach.

I have never understood why people create this shit if they're not straight up employed in the pornographic film industry (and therefore creating a work intended for general release).

Since cellphones have had cameras, people have had the bright idea of taking snaps to send to their partners/spouses/mistresses. Every time these people are shocked when some fling they are done with then gets upset at being stonewalled or someone convinces them that they should do a kiss and tell while the irons hot.

The celebs/e-celebs do it because they have the power over the people they tend to target. A groupie or most fans will likely be star-struck enough or feel obligated to not get the idol who sent them dick pics in trouble. Because the late night chatter between saucy sexts and pics means you have some sort of connection - why ruin that by telling on them? They are also not big enough for a tell all story in a news article.

That said I assume the issue in these cases is that the intimacy in the marriage is mostly dead. Instead of doing the responsible thing of looking to patch up, let their wifes know their needs, or admit it wasn't working - they instead decide on lazy ways to get their jollies without having to do proper effort.

If pewdipie was fucking fans it wouldn't have killed his career

If PewDiePie were fucking an underage fan it would have, at a minimum, badly hurt his career. Regardless of him being self employed.

That's one of the few things I can think of that would. That, and maybe gunning down somebody in broad daylight during rush hour. He could say nigger 700 more times, and it wouldn't matter much.

Ryan appears to have done something that there's pretty broad opposition to. Or, at least I hope so. You can never quite tell with all the degenerates virtue signaling to pedos these days.

Yeah I've already seen this but it's so disorganized, unlike the mega links posted above that were too found on the subreddit

 

[YerDaSellsAvon]

Maybe this will mean Alannah might finally fuck off to her own corner of the internet and take her simp fans with her too.

Alannah was the downfall of Funhaus.

I do genuinely feel for James, Elyse and Peak, hope they make it out of this okay, they deserve that much.

All you trash voters are just leaking out of the simp army. Fucking lol.

 

[Punished Tails]

This is like watching a live footage of a train wreck. I won't be surprised if we learn something equally disgusting about many more RT employees. But now that I've spend hours reading this thread, I'm ready to throw my phone away, shave my head and move to the mountains to look after baby goats.

According to another farmer a few pages back, Barbara has allegedly admitted to having masturbated in the office and Lindsey and Micheal allegedly admitted to fucking in the office.

Though where they stated this I'm not sure. If anybody knows/remembers, links would be appreciated.

He actually did though. Pewdiepie met his girlfriend because of his career. It was way back in 2011 though and while there's not a whole lot of detail on it she was a fan of his videos before she decided to contact him and start dating.

Remember that Minecraft episode where Ryan kept that cow (Edgar?) tied up in an underground dungeon hidden under his house? Yeah that's not so funny anymore...

what the actual fuck? I've never watched any other RT content than Funhaus and a couple episodes of Always Open with FH members, but how can someone see this in a video (made for children) and not think that this behavior is alarming and borderline sociopathic?

Not sure to be honest. Depends how James and Elyse's relationship with the rest of the group and former contributers. I'm sure they will continue to move forward but after so many people leaving from the main alums, I think it would be wise to rebrand and start fresh with who they have left.

The new crew is more can than capable of taking over. Like really, what did Adam bring? He was a solid +1 in most videos, but he wasn't one of the people who had their own thing. Bruce had Demo Disk, Elyse has semi-wacky random indie games. Alanah has Lawrence's old shows. Adam is just a 'solid' person to put in.

I followed CowChop since the beginning and they shifted members constantly and rarely actually had the founders in their videos. Funhaus can easily go on, but at this rate, they might as well all just become streamers. Bruce and Lawrence quit to "make companies" and whatever lies they told themselves, but just became streamers, and probably make more than ever before.

What's the difference between a 17 year old and and an 18 year old?

A prison sentence if you ask them to send you nudes

Did you forget about the part where Cow Chop died because people stopped caring/watching since they tuned in mainly for James and Aleks?

First, it wasn't just one episode, the Edgar thing was over 100 episodes long, and has continued to be a bit of Ryan's till his ultimate demise. To explain, the Edgar thing started out as a cow that spawned where he was building wouldn't leave his house. Eventually he dug a hole, put the virtual cow in it, and covered the top with glass. That was the beginning of the Edgar bit. Everyone knew about it, and played along. Eventually this turned into the 'Ryan is a psycho' bit in other games as well, especially GTA. Anyways, like twenty(??) or so episodes, a sheep, and chicken also encased in glass in Ryan's Minecraft house later, Michael releases Edgar into the wild. Or so we thought. Ryan immediately gets another cow, fixes the hole and while everyone laughs at Michael's confusion Ryan says the famous line everyone who watches knows "Edgar is the one in the hole". Pretty much, releasing the cow didn't matter whatever animal was trapped in his virtual residence was deemed Edgar. Ryan continues to do this to minecraft cattle and sheep even in the most recent episodes where he completely buries a sheep that wouldn't stay in a fence.

This is one of the very many unsettling things that RT allowed Ryan to pretty much get away with in their playthroughs. The GTA bits are significantly worse.

(edit because of the video posted below actually doing the math for me between original Edgar burial and "One in the hole" quote)

Cow Chop started decaying as soon as they stepped onto LA. I don't know what the fuck is up with LA, but it ruins everything i love.

For reference. I loved Ryan for his dark sense of humor. But I can't rewatch these videos without being a little creeped out now

and probably Fiona

I imagine there’s a lot Fiona doesn’t know.

I mean...The shit Ryan did in real life is indefensible, but it seems a little silly to get worked up about him doing fucked up things to pretend animals and people in games.

I wasn't calling his game play bits 'unsettling' because I was getting worked up about it. More that I was trying to express that those bits even made the people he worked in AH uncomfortable at times. I personally thought quite a few of the 'psycho' bits he had were entertaining in an obviously dark humor sort of way.

I'm not denying that what he did IRL was inexcusable. Now that I'm caught up with all the drama, a lot of things I liked him for now have a bad taste in my mouth cause I actually enjoyed him in AH. As a fan I am sad to see him go, but as a person who understands the weight of the situation and just how gross his and Adam's actions are, I'm not gonna blindly wish him well and say what he did was okay.

Ah I see, sorry I thought Edgar was another AH member who was bullied during minecraft plays to be stuck in a hole/jail, that's why I said it's fucked up
