Yeah I really do. There's a much higher barrier to entry for Phil's forums than there is for joining a discord server. Look how many regulars he lost by moving from Twitch to YT. Being on a popular platform that people are already using counts for a lot. Not to mention all the features discord has that his ancient forums lack.
How long until he gets a job and starts saving money for retirement? You are expecting him to have a level of self awareness that he is incapable of doing
So if Phil wanted to apply for affiliate as soon as possible, he'd have to start streaming on Twitch... tomorrow? Interesting.
Twitch should only allow him back into the Partnership/Affiliate program if he makes a public apology to them.
Yep. Affiliates effectively get 90% of the benefits of partnership. Partners just get more emotes, their subs processing fees covered, exclusive bounties for shilling new games for money, encoding options available all the time (Youtube gives this for anyone but only partners get it on twitch lol), and a few other niche benefits.
yeah too bad square enix has its own sexual harassment too. but just isnt in your face news yet. so people dont care. just like phil. doubt he even knows but will praise square enix while shitting on blizz. but much like phil and alot of people in this case. once the square enix news makes it around the grape vine depending on how society sees its crimes phil will make his judgement on if he should shit on it or praise it. no moral background, just goes with whatever everyone else thinks but somehow he formed his own opinion about it
That and he’s basically admitting that he’s now forcing his fans to shell out thousands of dollars for the sake of keeping his frivolous lifestyle instead of dialing back his spending.
lol that comment really got his panties in a twist
It only gets more confusing when you consider that at least $1k/month of bills vanished into the ether when his credit card debt was discharged through his bankruptcy. In fact, he would have stopped paying his credit cards after he initially filed for bankruptcy in January of 2020, and he stopped paying his CT Condo mortgage back in April/May of 2019.
which means get ready for that begging, gonna be in full fkin effect
they get money for the ads played on their channel too i think.
More like $2-3k, just from credit cards. Add another $1200 or so for the CT mortgage.
All live commentary is improvised. And just because you do it, doesn't make you special or good at it, no matter how long you've speaking in front of people. Saying "Oh look there's a dolphin" when there's a mammal-like creature swimming in the water on screen is not waht anyone would classify as improv commentary, that's observational—which ironically he claims to be the best at. To improvise you have to be at least ten steps ahead of whatever you are commenting on, that way you can always think on your feet. The alternative definition according to Wikipedia is "Improvisation also exists outside the arts. Improvisation in engineering is to solve a problem with the tools and materials immediately at hand." Can you imagine Phil at work during a training exercise, like one of those nuclear test simulators like Homer had to do?
