Jim Sterling / James "Stephanie" Sterling / James Stanton/Sexton & in memoriam TotalBiscuit (John Bain) - One Gaming Lolcow Thread

[Oliver Onions]

Let's also remember the following two points of context around genderjames' current crusade:

1. It costs 5usd to sub to a twitch channel for one month
2. A streamer can put chat into sub only mode at any time

It is entirely within genderfatso's own power to end his perceived harassment. He could choose any one of the following options

1. Untag his gay content for queers as being gay content for queers
2. Restrict chat to paypigs only
3. Stop being such a crying faggot and stop making shrieking troll-validation videos

No no no, this won't do at all. This would require Jim to use his agency and take logical steps to sort the problem himself. He wants Twitch to fix it for him, but not in a way that could conceivably inconvenience him in any way at any point in the future.

Basically, he wants all his groceries in one bag, but he doesn't want the bag to be heavy.

I know we're not supposed to engage in social engineering, and just watch and laugh, but I can't help but think we could reignite two dying lol cows if we got Jim and Sargon to collide in some Gamergate 2.0

It wouldn't last long, but it would be some brief supernova of obese, autistic lulz that would give them both a final chance to shine.

He could have been training as a competitive eater, or as a power bottom

Don't those crossdressing sissy hypno fetish types refer to their crossdressing as 'their training'? I swear I've heard that somewhere.

This is always the same thing. Look at eternal UK Thot Katie Price and her petition to make social media accounts have ID requirements 'to make the trolls think before they post' - She did this after receiving hate online, and instead of taking whatever steps she could as a minor celebrity to avoid it (Hiring a social media person to filter it, setting up word filters, using a blockbot, or any other one of the absolute myriad of tools available to tailor your social media experience exactly how you want it), she instead starts a petition to make daddy government do the work for her.

I can't tell these days if these fuckers are just stupid, lazy, or have such an unjustified sense of self-importance they actually think the rules need to change to suit their feelings.

Another option Katie Price could have tried was not accepting huge sums of money to put every minute detail of her personal life --including her hilarious son-- on multiple reality TV shows.

Just another attention whore who wants to dictate the kind of attention she receives. But alas, thots will be thots.

And in neither case I believe them. Greg got his 'egg cracked' by Kevin Gibes of all people, the likelihood of Greg being a fetishist is 100% imo, and his shitty comic is trying to trick people into thinking that he's not a porn-sick asshole who gaslit his wife.

I admit I wasn't following it, but Greg's trooning out caught me by surprise. What's the kink that triggered it, anyway? Sissy?

It's terribly ironic because goths used to be so accepting of gender non-conforming men. But I guess everything is troons now.

We all talk about tomboys being tragic victims of the gendercult's pervasive influence, but goths are up there as well. Sure, I made fun of the guys in skirts as much as everybody else, but at least they were being honest about being men in skirts and weren't trying to muscle into girls' bathrooms.

I can't tell these days if these fuckers are just stupid, lazy, or have such an unjustified sense of self-importance they actually think the rules need to change to suit their feelings.

I'll take "all of the above" for $400, Alex.

'Hello you cuuuuuunt' always gets me My man Harvey has to be in his 20s now, I wonder what he's managed to get up to.

You have the crux of the issue here. People want to be known and get attention from the public, but don't want any of the negative connotations. The Internet & Social Media has exacerbated this by allowing more and more people to become minor celebrities and public figures, when they would really be better off not doing so.

The Internet & Social Media has exacerbated this by allowing more and more people to become minor celebrities and public figures, when they would really be better off not doing so.

I think the other thing it's done is forced 'real' celebrities to face the reality that they're not as popular as they think. Before social media, you either sent hate mail which went straight in the bin or turned up at a public event to call someone a cunt which A) Took too much effort and B) Would result in security re-enacting George Floyd on you.

Now through sites like Twitter anyone can tell Katie Price exactly what they think of her and her antics, and she fucking hates it because like all celebrities she's a narcissist who wants complete control of the narrative.

This goes doubly so for e-celebs who, as you say, really aren't mentally equipped to withstand the scrutiny of being a public figure. Combine that fragility with the colossal ego that fame in a vacuum breeds and the fact that, unlike irl celebs, a lot of e-celebs really have no life offline and it's no surprise we're now dealing with a plague of narcs who regard the Internet as their own personal playground.

I'm not very familiar with him but I'm guessing basic AGP combined with not getting enough attention/early midlife crisis, because he has a family. He's skinwalking his wife of ten years, which is horrific in so many ways. On the other hand the fact that he follows Kevin means that he can literally be into anything, because that man is a fetish machine. More details.

Oh, right. I was following that thread at the time. And looks like my prediction was correct: Greg isn't sperging out online all that much. At least not beyond the usual background noise for troons, anyway.

 

[stupid frog]

This is the core issue people like Jim don't seem to get, and the main reason I think his audience is leaving in droves. Because Jim is perpetually miserable, he assumes everyone else must be too.

In reality, it's the year of our Lord 2021, and most people are over the perpetual outrage mentality, especially in video games. Even if you agree with everything Jim believes, there's nothing enjoyable about tuning in to watch/hear a clearly miserable man bitch like a child; I'd rather get that info from someone like Critikal, who covers a lot of the same topics as Jim but in a light-hearted, comedic way that makes it entertaining instead of depressing.

I don't know if it's just getting older --probably not since Jim is my senior-- or a broader cultural shift but I'd rather just enjoy things now, and if I can't enjoy something I ignore it and move on to something else that does spark joy. Life's too short to be angry all the time.

Maybe since we have to deal with Covid, everyone has less patience for stuff that should be put on the backburner in comparison

That's certainly on brand for Jim.

He wants to put on a wig and the rest of the world is supposed to intuit that he's now a "woman" and treat him accordingly. He can't exercise any self-control when it comes to microtransactions, so he wants companies and/or government to manage his consumerist impulses for him.

Setting aside the contemptible nature of such a worldview, it must be absolute hell expecting the entire world to organize itself just to regulate your emotional states. You'd be miserable literally all the time.

 

[IAmNotAlpharius]

I know we're not supposed to engage in social engineering, and just watch and laugh, but I can't help but think we could reignite two dying lol cows if we got Jim and Sargon to collide in some Gamergate 2.0

It wouldn't last long, but it would be some brief supernova of obese, autistic lulz that would give them both a final chance to shine.

The most I’ll do is unsubscribe. I’m generally too lazy to subscribe/unsubscribe but when he was all salty about losing subscribers I had no other choice but to unsubscribe.

Personally fuck microtransactions, all of em. You know what I would do? Play another game?

There are a fuckton of games that exist without the microtransaction/gacha mechanics, From oldie games like Timesplitters, SOCOM or Syphon Filter to even new ones (with some acceptable DLCs) like Frostpunk, Darkest Dungeon or even the Soulsborne games.

Plus, there are other stuff besides videogames that you can explore, listen to music, watch movies or watch anime of old, I see no reason to be constantly angry all the time like Jimbo here. Just don't fall for the hype/cinematics and try something else.

It's that easy, yet I'm surprised he hasn't caught up in it.

 

[WULULULULU]

Double post but for some reason I cannot edit my post.

Jimbo posts a boring 'review' of Aliens: Fireteam Elite. Sounds like he's not interested in the entire thing and just sees the game's bugs.

 

[Oliver Onions]

For sake of comparison to Jim's sour-faced drivel:

On top of just generally being much more pleasant to listen to (despite being an Aussie cunt) Gmanlives states in his review he didn't have a single crash in his entire run, while ya boi Guru Larry dropped into the comments of Jim's video to share similar sentiments, (and appeal to Jim's consoomer side):

This begs the question: Is Jim the unluckiest man alive, or is he completely full of shit and exaggerating a game's issues so he has an excuse to cry more?

Given that he actually re-uses footage of the same glitches at different stages in his opening montage, I put it to you, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, that he is in fact full of shit.

 

[TheBeanz]

Wait a minute, didn't Jim do a thing on Aliens toys recently? You'd think he'd have noticed such a thing considering he's just 'so into toy collecting'

 

[Prince Vegeta]

I mean, I believe you, but I just don't understand why. What's the goal?

 

[Oliver Onions]

If he can pretend a game is worse than it is he has more to bitch about, and can continue to delude himself and his audience the games industry is irredeemable. From his spiel in that troon collab video a while back it's apparent he is now utterly incapable of holding any positive opinion about video games.

I was thinking the other day about an old JQ where he talked about how companies like EA think only three games exist: Call of Duty, Candy Crush and Clash of Clans. The point of the video was this kind of tunnel-vision is what was causing the homogenisation of AAA gaming, but the irony is that's now how Jim views the industry as a whole.

To Jim, every single game in 2021 is just microtransactions, bugs and crunch; he can't even entertain the notion anything exists outside of that because it would mean recognising how myopic and fucking pointless his weekly rants have become.

I think that he is a living being with magnetic field of energy flowing around his biomass, causing electronics to fuck up.

I never ever encountered the bugs he bitched about in Homefront or We Happy Few.

Nah, I don't see how that would work. They're not competing to win over the same audience so there's no incentive for them to clash with each other (unlike Sargon vs. Metokur). Sargon's also settled into a comfortable niche at the moment with his Lotus Eaters podcast, which he wouldn't want to risk by starting Internet slapfights with other content creators.
