Honestly, I wish I could've seen his initial reaction to finding out his nudes had leaked, and also to the girl outing their sexting relationship when she was a minor. I can barely even imagine the reaction he must've had. I bet it was hilarious.
I want to believe it was something like that comedian guy's reaction when he found out you can still save snapchats by using screen recorders/etc.
 
idk man this whole thing is crazy, I am just waiting for someone who formerly worked for RT, AH, or FH to go on a podcast and drop all sorts of shit on people in this medium. i used to be a big AH fan, starting with Michael's Rage Quits. I stopped watching in 2017 when Lindsay began being an integral part of the Lets Plays.

Decided to go on a bit of a Ryan deep-dive to see what I could find of relevance to the current situation. Sorry for no Adam content; I've never watched a Funhaus video, nor have I ever been interested in them, so I wouldn't know where to look. Anyway, here's some mildly interesting stuff:

This video of Ryan and Meg on their Japan trip, in which they both wear maid outfits. Can't say for sure if they shared this hotel room or not, but I will say that the room doesn't appear to be one of the kinds with two rooms connected - it looks like one small room with an adjacent bed. So there's that.

This RT skit in which Ryan and Chris split their "assets" (the office) during an "office divorce." We'll need a quick archive for this one - I can bet anything it'll be gone soon.

This brief mention of Ryan from one of the (many) RT podcasts, in which Jack describes him with the quote, "I bought these beans from him, and I don't know what happened. Now all my tires are flat and I have no pants on." I never realized how many times the theme of Ryan being a sexual deviant/creepy guy came up whenever people talked about him, even as a joke.

This gifset; while nothing about it is particularly sus, it is quite old, and according to the caption, took place in a Tinychat (which is a well-known breeding ground for creeps and pedos). I think, timeline wise, this really marks the notable change in Ryan from "softspoken IT guy who plays games sometimes" to "wannabe casanova who lives to flirt with fans." It's also just embarrassing as fuck to look at :story:

This audio clip from their Creeper Census let's play in which Gavin says "we're not in prison, Ryan," and Ryan cheekily responds, "Not yet." That's just a little too on-the-nose right now, Ryan. (Sorry, I'm too lazy to hunt for the video timestamp, but the clip is hosted on Tumblr and can be easily downloaded.)

I'm sure there's more relevant stuff out there, but these are all I found of particular interest at the moment. In hindsight, it's easy to see how many signs there were that Ryan may not be a guy on the up and up.

I'm doubtful that that will ever happen. The only person I can see doing that is someone like Ray, who was close enough to have the intel, but has been gone long enough that completely severing ties with RT professionally would cost him nothing. That comes down to temperament, though, and I think Ray might just be happy to be keeping his nose clear and not having to grovel before the internet like the current RT members. So I can't imagine he'll put himself back into that line of fire, even if he does have key information. If anything, I can see him making a burner account on Twitter or something and dropping a bunch of shit to let people put it together on their own.

Honestly, I only respect Bruce's statement of saying there's no point in talking about it out of the lot of these. Doesn't feign hurt, doesn't try to swing it into more attention for himself, just says nope. Even if he doesn't like Adam anymore, he didn't use it as a poor me, poor me or attention grab. Maybe I'm reading too much into, but that speaks more to his character to me that he won't throw someone he once respected/called friend under the bus to look like a goody good boy on the internet. Shows who was the only actual man there... At least until he proves me wrong and does an entire stream on it lol.
 
I've been following this thread from the beginning, but was the stuff about him sexting/sharing and soliciting pics from fans under 18 confirmed somehow? That one Twitter vid refuses to play for me on any device, and since the whole Vic situation, I take every accusation with a grain of salt.

This Tessa girl showed some texts she shared with him, dating back to at least as I saw 2018, when she was 17.

I think I need to do some math on this. Her birthday is in July. She turned 20 this year. so 2019 before july she be 18, and then in 2018 before july she is 17, making her 17 here still. Ok awesome. Not 16. In this image at least. I don't know how long they went on for.

There was other images too in the thread that showed the year 2017 (unsure if those were from tessa too) but at that time she would have been 16.
How do we know these messages are legit and not fake, though?

The Twitter video is our main confirmation, as the messages between her and Ryan begin at the end of 2019 (which is when she says they stopped talking), and she scrolls back all the way to messages dated late 2017. The video was definitely taken on a phone, denoted by the "recording" stamp at the top of the screen and the obvious iPhone UI, and you can see that Ryan is online in the video, likely because he got a notification about her recording their messages. EDIT: There's also a little "You screen recorded chat!" message at the very beginning of the video, which does indeed pop up if you screen-record a Snapchat conversation with the regular iPhone screen recording tool.

We also know for certain that the Snapchat username was Ryan's, as he dropped it publicly years ago (he has since deleted it, but someone was able to grab it and archive it earlier in the thread). It's difficult to fake a screen recording of a phone, and even more difficult to fake months and months of messages, so it is highly unlikely that she falsified them.

If you check earlier in the thread, I believe someone archived the video and posted it here, so you should be able to watch it that way. It's pretty difficult to dispute it.

I feel so fucking bad for the kids, they don't deserve to have a fucking dumbass as a father.
Honestly the wife and kids are the only victims. The twitter responses from all the dipshits at the office rings hollow when just below their apology they're oranga man sperging because of the debate a week ago

The username of the Snapchat is something that bothered me too. I've always known Ryan's Snapchat to be "RyanTheSnap", but these texts were from "RyanTheChat", weren't they? Was that ever figured out?

Someone early on noted that when he initially created his account, he used RyanTheChat.

Yes
Some are arguing it's not his snapchat name, but here is an old Roosterteeth subreddit post confirming it
Apparently he created that account while on twitch and finding an unused user name took forever, so it's on video somewhere (hopefully someone has an archive)

RyanTheSnap was his "public" account, I believe, but RyanTheChat was his personal one. Here's an archive proving that the latter was indeed his account, and here's the original thread. Apparently he chose the name on stream/video, so there may be video evidence somewhere to corroborate this further (someone links it in the comments of the Reddit thread, but that video is deleted). I'm guessing that, at some point, he decided to switch over to RyanTheSnap for fans and kept RyanTheChat for his "personal" stuff.
