I don't think there is a way to prove it. He could show his phone but then people would say he deleted the app before showing it on stream. Even if he showed his credit card transactions (which no streamer should have to do), people would just say he didnt show the transactions for all of his credit cards and there is some secret one.
The people who have more information are the ones who did his bankruptcy hearing, and they decided that he was not spending money on this.
I did give you something to think about. The evidence is based on the mod dsp and the guild dsp having the same username + discriminator.
Sorry to hear about the person your love. Hope you feel better
The reason the guy wouldn't prove he is DSP is specifically because he is trying to make it look like its DSP. In other words, the guy made an account on the app with the sole purpose of making it look like phil. Then, when people tell him "take a selfie" he simply doesn't do it because he knows it will prove he is NOT dsp. I would fully agree with you if DSP had powdered sugar in his beard, but I don't think he does. And in this particular case, you have some guy looking at the camera on the CCTV checking to see who ate the donuts from the snack room.
Okay, you say you're not a DSP loremaster, so maybe you just don't know this. Scopely recently rolled out an update that let anyone track any user over browser. So DownFromTheRafters was immediately tracked and as it turns out, he's been logging in without missing a single day for three, almost four years.
There's, in layman's terms, NO FUCKING WAY IN HELL that a troll had THAT sort of patience AND money AND dedication. This is an op that had to start alllll the way back in 2017, be funded in a way that wasn't peanuts or recoverable by chargeback, and the chessmaster troll just sat on it, in spite of it being made to hurt Phil, for nearly three years until BT494 just happened to run into the name one day on the game.
Let's entertain the idea for half a second: Rafters isn't Phil. Why did Rafters have a very contained reaction to being called Phil? "People think I'm some streamer." Some streamer. It was ten seconds away from saying "He sounds like a handsome devil." Not The Guy, not some scammer on twitch, not king of scrubs... Some streamer. Exhibit 2: Why did Phil had a mini panic attack when he read Down from the rafters on his stream? Phil having a super thin skin and being extremely ban happy isn't news, so let's not even count the instant bans people who bring up WWEC on Phil's streams are greeted with. But why did Rafters ban any mention of MidFirstBank, Pandalee, KatBlackedYellowThong, TyroneNJim and other fun, harmless names? Did he get acquainted with Phil lore after the fact? And if he isn't Phil... Why does he care?
Phil wouldn't have to show his phone, he'd have to show the app. "No streamer should have to show his credit card charges" you say? Maybe Phil should. Maybe it'd be a nice, pahsitive way to really let the paypigs know what they're actually helping with. Again, if Phil could beat us the fuck out by showing that he REALLY is in dire financial straits, and he REALLY isn't Rafters, he would have. He's kind of a special case. We know he's feigning distress, and he knows he's feigning distress, and the same people are privvy to the fact that most of his money gets pissed away on WWE beefcake. But the paypigs don't know, and Twitch has to be able to claim some plausible deniability in the end of the day to justify still giving him a platform. Much like corrupt politicians will cry a river about muh privacy when they're asked for accountability, greaseball conman Phil will fire back with the same line. "None of your fucking business!" Sure. So you're just accepting that you give Phil money, because he really needs it, and then it's his money to do with as he pleases.
Not really how begging and getting help should work, but whatever. If a junkie asks you for a grand to get cleaned up and maybe back to school, and then blows it all on drugs, wouldn't you feel betrayed? I'm sure many of his paypigs have over the years. So maybe you can see how he could benefit from showing some accountability and actually showing all these phantom bills and ghost taxes he pays daily.
In the end, the theory that it is a 4D chess troll is simply too far fetched to be plausible. Again: The resources to put into the trolling plan. The patience to sit on it for three years, when by it's very nature, you'd want it to be found out sooner rather than later to hurt Phil. The ability to match Phil's speech and typing patterns to a degree a specialized AI thinks it's being had. I mean, fuck, I'm good at sock accounts, that's why my posts ever get more than two likes. It'll be a grand day when it comes out that 99% of the posts in the DSP subforum are done by me, ree, pretending to be about ten different people.
Or you know, all these other guys posting in styles greatly different from my own are just different people. And Rafters is Phil. Hanlon's razor. Conspiracy theories are fun though.
EDIT: And no, I don't count that time he posted a picture of his bulgy eyes and came to show us a folder full of white sheets of paper claiming to be showing us "Da bills and tahxes" as him actually showing jack shit.
