I checked it out for the first time. It's for babies.

Does anyone know/remember if mald is getting paid for his role of publishing director at offbrand games? When I heard him announce that he's joining offbrand, he never mentioned being a co owner of the company...in fact I heard that fact for the first time in this donation news thing. So he's not only a publishing director but also a co owner? When I first said it was shady, I had the impression that he was only an employee so a company he works for is giving money to a company he owns. But not it looks more like a company he owns is giving money to a company he owns.

He said he didn't register as charity because he didnt want to claim tax breaks and give the impression that he's taking money out of his left pocket and putting it in his right pocket...but this sounds like exactly that.

I personally went off the OP.

As you saw earlier, he's a huge advocate for anti-consumer practices, which is one of the reasons why he's so adamant about this campaign. The other reason is that he is the co-owner of a game publishing company called Offbrand along with Ludwig.

"Co-creator" may be more accurate but frankly there's not much info on who does what there. Not even a "Who we are" or "About Us" page I can find on the site. It's a shoddy website all in all.

I need you guys to stop driving each other into hysterics about muh charity fraud using misunderstood google results and plain wrong AI responses. None of you have any idea what you're talking about, especially not the guy with the huge ass ChatGPT text above.

I want to see Mald eat shit, but he's not doing anything legally wrong or even sketchy here.

His ferret stuff is part of his business. He'll write off all ferret related costs as business expenses, and he will declare all donations as taxable income. The IRS will be very happy about this, happier than if he actually ran a charity, because all they care about is getting their cut. They do not give a fuck if you call the payment you receive donations, subs, gifts, juicers, tithes, vbucks, ferretfuckershitcoins or whatever else.

What would be illegal is if Mald was falsely claiming that the donations were tax deductible. He did not. Nothing here is illegal.
He is making money, he is paying taxes on that money, the idiots that "donate" do not get to claim a tax write-off for it.

He could have made his ferret rape dungeon into a charity, but that would've been a lot of bureaucratic overhead just for him to then be unable to freely access the revenue.

He's a piece of shit for hoarding animals, he's a faggot narcissist for making it seem as if this was this grand philanthropic thing, and his fans are braindead simpletons for slobbering it all up.

What Mald is not is in violation of tax law, based on the facts known to us.

The problem is the word "donate". l2read spergtard.

 

[Rekieta’s Broken Penis]

I guess the conflict of interest thing really comes down to whether the (co?)owner Ludwig Ahgren gives a shit or not. If Mr. Ahgren doesn’t care, why should anybody else cry foul?

A donation is a gift - usually one of a charitable nature.

https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/donation

usually of a charitable nature - there's no strict requirement that the donee is an established charity under US Code 501
You don't happen to be the retard that posted your little AI law sperging in the steam topic are you?

I care because I think it's sleezy and that it's deliberately misleading. Where do you think you are?

 

[Ted's Cabin]

its the same thing with cheating in puzzle games or the voice changer shit, or the pedo shit from second life. its not real

Second life used to have fanmade news with headlines like "Second Life: Not as Many Pedophiles Anymore!" Though I don't think Jason has done anything other than create the world's largest ferret-slave onahole collection and he shouldn't be called a pedophile or a predator of anything other than ferrets.

Kek. "Kids are gross", according to a furfag keeping 50+ ferrets inside a small room in his house:

Gross and take up all your time.

Zoomer retards are really too retarded to comprehend how insulting this is to their parents, grand parents etc.

The actual reason is almost always that it'd interfere with their hedonistic lifestyle or interrupt their videogame sessions for the next set of however many years. Anyone who hates children hates life itself and it's a strong indication of how they perceive the world. I would have to give up my videogame for a mere child?

I personally couldn't find any info that he's a co-owner, only that he works there at some high level position. I'm not sure where kiwis ITT got the idea that he's a co-owner. If I missed a post I'd appreciate if someone could link it and prove me wrong.

This one is odd but I think I can answer it. It's just that they originally kept saying "we made a game publishing company" in interviews and shitter, and "game news" sites kept saying they co-owned it or it was a joint venture and then clarity two pages later that he was appointed as the director of strategy.

Called Offbrand Games, the new publisher is a joint venture between Offbrand and Jason ‘Thor’ Hall, known as the creator of independent games studio Pirate Software. (esportsinsider.com)
[two pages later]
Hall has been appointed as the Director of Strategy for Offbrand Games.

Here's another one, where he says "What if we made our own game publishing company" which again implies a greater stake than just working as a director, even though they do say after that he's their director of strategy.

I'm here today because I have an announcement, something we've been working on for a long time.
Because I love video games. I've been playing a lot of video games.
But I wanted to tackle the other side of gaming.
And I have this company, Off Brand. We've been able to do a lot of cool productions.
And we thought, what if we made our own game publishing company?
So, we're here to announce Off Brand Games, but it wouldn't make a lot of sense if another random YouTuber made a game publishing company.
So I'm not doing it alone, and I have a director of strategy here with me, aka the guy on your YouTube feed, Pirate Software, Thor.
Hey, everybody.
Who I'm super pumped to share this with.

Video game publisher. Ludwig and PirateSoftware are partnering to launch Offbrand Games, a new publisher that's getting things started by publishing Rivals 2, the sequel to the indie fighting game Rivals of Aether. (IGN)

One more, "we made a game publishing company" with a picture of Jason.


Most people are going to see any one of these and reasonably come away with the idea "they made a game company", which is probably going to enter their long term memory as some form of co-ownership.

conflict of interest in this case is about violating consumer trust, not your co-owners you unrepentant retard

This was my thought, which is why I was saying it's not the tax shit that's the problem, it's that Aether Studios would even do this in the first place and take skin buyer's money and funnel it into maldy's wallet.
Not illegal, but really cringe and weird.

 

[Cat tit bingo]

On the topic of his "rescue", one thing I know about ferrets is that because of there very thin intestines they are extremely prone to blockages and other complications that require surgical intervention. I wonder how well maldy and his pet pooner are watching the dozens to hundreds of ferrets he has to keep they from eating random junk or more importantly getting them actual surgery to save there lives when needed. You can claim the pooner is a vet all you like but I doubt it has the skill or means to perform surgery on shoe lace size intestines and I'm also doubting he'd shell out the 2 to 10 grand to a real vet for the surgery every time it happens, ferrets skin donations or not.
If maldy does grow his hoard to 250 I fully expect a tranch style mass grave if one doesn't exist already.

 

[Maldavius Figtree]

"Guys, it's not classified as a charity, we're just giving 25% of the earnings to the co-owner of our publisher who promises he'll use it on his personally owned ferrets. You can find out more at ferrets.live."

Which, legally, is not at all a problem.

The real problem is that he makes it seem as if this was a charitable animal welfare project, when in reality it's a business where he's buying up ferrets to generate passive income for himself.
He is a charlatan and a fraud. Jason is buying ferrets, thus increasing demand, which effectively means he's hurting ferrets for his personal profit.

The problem is the word "donate". l2read spergtard.

Right back at you, I explained why the word "donate" is not a problem.
Stop shitting up the thread you fucking retard. Everybody with two working brain cells can instantly tell your "research" is ChatGPT copypasta.

His gf isn't a vet, but a vet assistant, which is a much less demanding role and cannot perform any actual veterinarian work since they do not have a vet license.

You have a good point, in my research on this topic I found most animal rescues are not required to have an on-site veterinarian, unlike preservations or zoos, but I'm not sure if they're legally even required to have an on-call vet for emergency purposes. animal rescues seem very lenient on animal welfare since many of them are, pardon the pun, pet projects run by nepobabies like Mald, and since the animals are already very vulnerable, there isn't as much a focus on their care as there would be in an animal sanctuary, preservation or zoo(all of which are far more stringent).

We'd need someone more familiar with the law in washington state to chime in.

This raises a good point. I checked the OP again and didn't see all the details of his ferret sanctuary. Tomorrow I might look into his LLC and the relevant laws to see if he's above board (I doubt he is).

 

[Dr Pavel I'm CIA]

I checked it out for the first time. It's for babies.

Is he breeding them on top of buying new ferrets ?

Or is it a same case scenario as the tranch where males aren't separated or neutered ?

Anyway there's a reason why ferrets are considered an invasive species and for someone who cares about animal's well being I'm not sure it's a good idea hoarding as many of them.

well the bad news is he wants 250 of them and dosent seem to be taking breeding measure into account, infact they celebrating the mating

I am also super curious if they've talked about having the ferrets fixed upon or prior to intake. My ~expertise~ is rabbits and it's always been recommended to fix them whenever possible, and it's especially important for female buns due to the chance of reproductive cancer. Spaying is pretty important for female cats too for the same reason.

You hate PirateSoftware for "giving Asmongold a platform"
I hate Maldy for raping ferrets to death.
We are not the same.

 

[ChromaQuack]

Jason is buying ferrets, thus increasing demand, which effectively means he's hurting ferrets for his personal profit.

Which is also far more damning to his reputation in the public eye than "oh he did a bit of a fucky wucky with charity filings, maybe, probably, not really. He just didn't know any better taxes are so hard guise!".

Shit, even if he were actively engaging in charity fraud that's nothing to youtubers, it comes with the territory at this point, just look at Jirard.
