I don't even like half of his targets; it's not like I'm a fan of HiTop, Hbomberguy or especially Patrick Willems. It's still fun to laugh at his dumb "space wizards" poster. But MauLer has the insane ability to take a video or review that should be easy to critique concisely and turn it into a boring wank session where he makes his target look better than they are.
 
Dunkey's response (the last sixth or so of the livestream because yes they spent that much time reacting to WW84) mostly composes of him looking bored and pretending to fall asleep while watching the EFAP on him. It shows the main flaw of EFAP. It is boring. It is hours upon hours of rambling. Their response to this seems to be that they find this criticism unfunny, and that they think their content isn't boring. Though to be honest. Dunkey could have done much better than he did. Here's a timestamp of where dunkey starts if you want to watch more of MauLer's critical responses.
I mean what did they expect, no one is going to genuinely respond to an 8 hour video where they go off topic on 30 minute tangents every five minutes, the fact that they pause every three seconds for the original video means you would have to respond to too many of these, like I don't care for Patrick Willams, but I can't blame him for ignoring all the EFAP stuff on him.

It's funny because the more autistic EFAP fans, the ones that spam LONG MAN BAD to every tweet criticizing Mauler, would say something along the lines of "well, not EVERY minute of that 8 hour video is dedicated to the topic at hand!" as if that makes it better. They did this to Jenny when she was surprised to see an 11 hour video with her name and face plastered on it but insist it's not actually just about her. You can't respond to what EFAP says to you in any reasonable way. The only thing you can do, and what EFAP fans encourage you to do, is have an unequal debate with Mauler. You by yourself against Mauler's circle with no mediator. Not particularly fair, ain't it?
I've been guilty of this myself in the past so I feel confident in saying this, but a lot of the time "criticism" is just a weasel word when really the person in question really just wants to attack someone. It's pretty disingenuous and a trap a critic needs to be careful not to fall into.
I know what you mean, I'm guilty of it too. Of course, criticism can be fine but some people like Mauler abuse the word as a shield to shit talk and ridicule people under the guise of trying to give constructive and earnest criticism. Replying to your enemies tweets and inserting yourself into their conversations that have nothing to do with you isn't criticism.

It's amazing that I hated these people a year ago but now I feel bad for them because of the shit they have to endure from Mauler.

The amount of fart huffing they're doing is just out of this world. 'We're having a very insightful discussion and Dunkey's brain just shuts off' like dude you guys are circlejerking the same point about some people loving the style and many others hating it. Also, expecting somebody to watch a 10 hour unfocused livestream so they can rebut you properly is absolutely braindead, other people actually have lives.

Also, love the 'IDK why Dunkey is so low energy on his stream but so lively in his videos'. It's amazing how scripted/edited content displays a different side to somebody than raw unedited livestreaming - I mean just because Mauler is just as bloated and boring on stream as he is in edited content is more surprising, tbh.

So he touts being part of a website whose divided scores for The Last Jedi is what shot him to his current popularity?
I'm pretty sure that is a meme. Not one I'm familiar with and possibly one that is pre-TLJ. The sarcastic 'TM' makes it pretty obvious. The 'intellecutal gaming' is also a meme, by the way.

Also, MauLer is pestering his husband to make a review for him to EFAP. He really is jumping the gun on WW84 and Mandalorian S2. He is itching for content that hasn't been made yet.

Only tangentially related but it seems that Mauler Jr. is feuding with Anomaly (40k youtube channel that has guested on EFAP a couple of times).

The spergery goes deep. But I can at least get that they have private autistic debates and they record themselves because...? Also Wolf still hangs out with them.
Also getting upset at a 'kys' comment when the EFAP crew says worse to their 'enemies' is peak hypocrisy.

Twitter and EFAP seem to be fundamentally different bubbles. Twitter, as we all probably know by now, brings out the worst in people. They at least pretend to get along and be civil in front of their audience on Youtube streams. I have a question. What is their behavior on Discord like?
Considering the nature of their content, which is attacking others, a civil war seems inevitable when a schism forms. MauLer is probably the most uniting force they have, since all of them seem to like to stay in his good graces and submit to his objectivity, which is their 'standard opinion' they rally behind. If MauLer retired from EFAP to focus on his reviews, leavings Rags or Jay in charge (which he would never do), they would fall upon each other like a pack of starving dogs.

I haven't lurked or payed attention Maulers Discord in awhile (I might start doing it again cause why not) but I do know Southpaw has gotten into a load of fights with random people on there (Hell even I got into one with him forever ago there) and even left and came back. Mauler is his usual smug self like he is on Twitter all the time. Rags doesn't seem to talk much (only has 2,889 messages sent as I type this) but does seem to get pretty angry a lot.

This seems to be the most recent time Rags sperged out on the server, and from what Rags says, it seems like Mauler is the one editing the mini's, not some editor he hired. Like I said I'll try to lurk more in the Discord server in case I see anything worth posting here. Considering Southpaw got into that argument with fellow guest Anomaly, and Jay has gotten into beef with Jlongbone over troon shit, I can easily say without Mauler they'd all go after each other hard.

Is editing the minis really that hard? He probably was rushing the Mandalorian ones out, but some of them took insanely long to edit, sometimes several months. Most of the editing to obnoxious and unnecessary. If he just cut out the boring or unnecessary parts and didn't focus on making it funnier with wacky zoom-ins I'm sure it would be quicker to edit. Part of me is somewhat touched by Rags defending his friend so emotionally, but that comment voiced a very prevalent concern. He isn't an 'asshole'. Most likely he is a fan. He has a right to question MauLer. MauLer is taking way too long to make reviews on subjects that become irrelevant as he is making them. And when they come out they are bloated monstrosities only people with too much time on their hands would bother watching And technically he isn't making them for free: his Patreon is paying him thousands in confidence he'll make those videos. I wonder how aware of the behind-the-scenes of MauLer's channel Rags is. I doubt they have even met in person, now that I think of it.

If you look hard enough, you'll find some of his fans talking about this thread and calling us spergs for not liking Mauler.

Depending on the software, it's not even hard to do quick zooms. It literally takes a few seconds to change scale and position values unless he's dumb enough to not know how to use them or the timeline and moved it frame-by-frame.

My issue with isn’t primarily with Dunkey its with certain boneheads in his fan base who whenever he gets called out on a bad take do the whole “ACKSHUALLY HE WAS GIVING A BAD TAKE ON PURPOSE” Schtick except if it’s a take they agree with and he’s suddenly a genius.

This comes across as so sad and desperate, it would be so funny if Quinton never brings up the Mandalorian just so Mauler can't feature him. He must have the Batwoman season premiere on a countdown timer, cause that's the only thing I think he could put out with little to no pushback from his audience.
 
Based on the speed his other stuff comes out, Mauler is either completely unable to use his editing software, or only edits for like 20 minutes a day.

I would love to see what his schedule looks like. He probably has terrible sleep habits, considering he stays up for the entirety of every EFAP. He probably spends half of non-EFAP days asleep, and the rest is probably video games, social media, and streaming services. I get the feeling the seeing what the real human behind the the gas mask avatar is like in his life off-stream would be a rude awakening to many of Callum's fans. What is his home like? What does he spend all those superchats and Patreon money on? What is his future projects' progress looking like? He's promised several reviews he hasn't even begun to record at this point. I doubt anyone in his closest circle knows that. It's probably highly disappointing even to us, his haters.

Star Wars toys
Somehow I think that isn't true. I honestly don't think he cares much about Star Wars anymore. Maybe he was a fan in the past, but his lack of knowledge of the EU and disdain for the Filoni Clone Wars and parts of the Mandalorian makes me think that he isn't the type of fan that would buy a ton of toys, especially toys owned by Disney no less. He definitely owns more than one Lord of the Rings sword replicas. Maybe the whole set.

I imagine he spends it all on take out orders/fast food and whatever games/streaming services he gets. I doubt he has a girlfriend with the lifestyle he's living (I mean who would want to be with someone who spends all their time either sleeping or sperging out on Twitter or in a Discord call for literally half a day).

Also found out the reason why Southpaw made his video on Spiderman 2:

He really is a mini Mauler, sperging out over a literal nobody channel which of course caused Mauler to switch his long stance on SM2.

Whenever I peek at Discord, he's 90% likely to be playing something (League, Halo, Dolphin emulator). He probably only "works" when the mood strikes him. Doesn't he pay Boschett to edit most of the minis?

He's been very good at keeping most of his private life private, other than having a sister/parents nothing about him really comes to mind, lol
