Stryder7x posted his response to Gabri's allegations: Imgur Album (archive)

TL;DR:
  • Stryder dug out messages from 2017, both handwritten and electronic, where Gabri is ecstatic that their relationship is doing so well
  • Messages from Gabri explicitly saying that nothing in the relationship was Stryder's fault when they broke up
  • Her lying about dating a mutual friend of theirs, Jeremey, right after her and Stryder broke up. She said "if he [Jeremy] gets hurt, I'll bring up hell." Jeremey was also trying to spread Gabri's allegations.
  • A timeline where Gab's made accusations in the past when Stryder's YouTube/Twitch career was on an upswing
I can still buy that Stryder could have had asshole moments. He admits as much and most of us do when we're under the age of 20. Barring some actual receipts from Gab in the form of something actually incriminating or actual charges being filed, the worst thing that happened is that two people who couldn't handle a relationship were in a relationship.

Pretty much.

I can accept that he was an immature douchebag because that's probably most people in online gaming communities.

But the part that proves to me that Gabri is lying about all of this, something her supporters keep ignoring, is the title of the original tweet: "I was RAPED by my ex-boyfriend"

Except she offered zero evidence of any rape happening. She purposely put that in the title to attract attention. If she had said she was emotionally abused by her ex, that would have made all the difference. She wanted it to draw attention and using that word was exactly what would get her the attention.

Even her defenders / supporters are repeating that Stryder was definitely abusive to her. Okay. You can be abusive and not a rapist. For fucks sake.

Gabri responded to Stryder.

There are more messages in here, where she gives examples of 'manipulation', but all it seems to be is some guy trying to get back with his ex. Gabri really wants to split hairs over the whole 18/19 thing, but this whole thing just seems to be '18 year old guy fails to read mind of 16 year old girl, lets his dick do the walking'. Apparently Stryder deleted some messages he shared with people?

Gabri is also mad Stryder would hold onto her letters, and tries to make the point that not everything in the relationship sucked, when the main point is that she's describing the exact same event in two completely different lights.

There's an archive of the response attached.

Billy Mitchell sued ApolloLegend, Twin Galaxies, the owner of Donkey Kong Forum and Jeremy Young in three separate lawsuits for a collective 13 million dollars, most likely to scare them into retracting their claims against him. Apollo is not backing down and wants to open a collective defamation case against Mitchell (funded via a gofundme), but we'll see where that one goes.

He made the goal in about 3 hours (he had a month to raise 10k)

What kind of dollar store lawyer does he have who'll take a defamation case for $10k pre-paid?

Good, fuck Billy Mitchell. The man is a pathetic scumbag who couldn't handle being found out as a cheater. Never stop rubbing his face in that, he deserves it.

He's right down this one alley of people I've sort of mentally and unconsciously bunched together. Y'know, like that one talentless hack uncle who had one claim to fame? Chris Metzen has become a rockstar, but looking back, he did mediocre drawings and got a job coding without any know-how. Mitchell is unimpressive and what, made a living off of hotsauce? One claim to fame, speedrunning, and he's hanging on for dear life.

It's honestly one of the more amusing stereotypes to follow; people who can't put words to what they're worth, yet just sort of ride the wave of being notorious for being notorious. Not saying Metzen didn't earn his place, but really, he was a motivational speaker the last half of his career.

10k goes to lawyer, some will be set aside for income tax (since he offered access to Dwayne's Twin Galaxies documentary as a reward, part of the fundraiser is apparently taxable), a flat fee goes to the guy who made said documentary, and then he wants to start giving away $50 to random people until it's all gone.

Kinda curious why he thinks legal fees will not exceed $10k though.

He probably got a quote for filing and initial stuff and is overly optimistic, or the lawyer he hired thinks he can recoup his money by winning, or it's a strip-mall dogbite lawyer and this will go really badly because speedrunners are retarded.

Doesn't Billy have to, I don't know, actually prove everything that was said/shown about his records being fake was incorrect?
You know, with actually facts and evidence?

Please, let this go to trial.

Technically, I dont think he does. But the defense will have to prove that he is. So, Billy Mitchell being a loser that cant beat games without cheats will become legally binding.

I don't think he gives a shit, he didn't even take a lawyer. In 2015 he sued Cartoon Network for his portrayal on Regular Show and the case was dismissed because it had no substance, but all he wanted was the attention anyway. I assume this will be a similar situation.

The lolsuit against him is what's going to be actually interesting, either because Mitchell will have a meltdown or because something goes wrong with the funding.

Someone who is only famous for playing video games wanting attention? Absolutely no chance, he had a solid case!

If you're waiting for Billy to have a meltdown during this case I think you'll be disappointed, he took it well when Apollo Legend tried to fuck with him so I think any sperging he does will be offline and we'll never hear about it. He's likely got a publicist telling him what to say and what to not say, so I doubt he'll go spazzing off around the Internet. My prediction is he'll just stay quiet about the whole thing.

Except he went on a panel and mouthed off about how much he hates everyone and talked about the case.
