Favorite internet personalities that did not turn into LOLCows over the years?

[FireGod365]

While CA has turned out to be a dumpster fire, there are still producers that actually managed to put out good content without going insane (relatively speaking). Cinema Snob, Phelous, Obscurus Lupa and perhaps a few others managed to still be kinda good imo.

LGR, 8 Bit Guy and Nostalgia Nerd all weathered enough criticism to push any of them into cowhood but all 3 have managed to be immune to getting involved in the drama.

 

[Kari Kamiya]

BlackBusterCritic. Probably helps that he actually made sure to get a life and remained a hard worker, so he's doing pretty well for himself last I heard, especially since he has a little boy to take care of. Internet's probably too crazy for him to tackle anymore, though I at least hope he heard about SolidMario's return.

 

[Otis Boi]

JhonTron, Mandlore Gaming, Cinema Snob,and NightMind.

Some of these guys have been caught up in drama but never fell fully into cowdom possibly because they are self aware enough to know when to lay-low or take a beating a move on.

HELLO, I'M GURU LARRY!!!

 

[The Flawless Gazelles]

lgr, 8 bit guy, ave, dave jones, frank howarth. or simply everyone with translatable skills into real life.

 

[Francis E. Dec Esc.]

Matt Carcappa and Jay Ryan from X-Entertainment/Dinosaur Dracula and The Sexy Armpit. And of course Dr. Stuart Ashen.

Lupa's a spergy annoyance, OP. wtf are you talking about.

James Rolfe has had his missteps but he seems to have found a good groove.

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

Always Dick Masterson.

I'm still laughing at his RSS feed hack of Maddox's shit-tier "Best Debate" podcast.

JonTron, Guru Larry and James Rolfe so far.

Jerma is by far the best streamer on earth. he is incapable of fault and completely free of any corrupting aspects.

His newest videos have been really good, especially since he had hit a somewhat dry spell in recent years. I still love his old stuff even though it shows its age (it was one of the first things I ever saw on Youtube). I think it's for the best that he and Mike Matei are basically 30-year-old boomers at this point. They stay out of e-drama and politics and are generally out of the loop when it comes to what's going on in the "nerd" world.

Definitely RedLetterMedia, for similar reasons to AVGN.

I wish I could say Sam Hyde, but he seems to have gone way downhill ever since World Peace got cancelled.

 

[morbidly-obese-steven]

I too like to check out Phealous(?)'s videos and even Lupa occasionally (tho im fucking autistic and am not that entertained with reviews of non-cartoons and she had said she doesn't care for cartoons so I watch mostly her videos with Phealouswhatever, the Barnie movie and some cheesy xmas movie ones were fucking funny) tho she had her crash with CA but idk I find her kind of sympathetic in the end and her video of addressing the drama was really decent even tho she kind of washed her hands out of the piss fountain of CA meltdown.

Otherwise some a bit more obscure characters like TLR;, King of DIY (probably obscure for people who do not do the fish tank wank), Tennings and some more known ones like SomeOrdinaryGamers, Jontron and the dude who I think is sill in CA and reviews porn movies and who's name I never remember because of weird channel name.

I dunno, I've really liked Hyde Wars so far.
I'm also looking forward to this fucking game he keeps talking about.

Keep your stick on a vise.

People with actual professional skills are hard to lolcow. Then you have Thunderf00t who, way too often, falls into lolcowdom. Still like the guy when in non cow mode.
