TF2 Emporium - 15-year-old cabal of terminally online game content creators contributing to the rot of a near 20-year-old game they could care less for.

One of the BIGGEST workshop makers just threatened to kill Trvmp (peace be upon him)

I wouldn't say that it "just happened", the og message was posted a month or so ago it seems, right around the election time:

Unsurprisingly, he pussied out and deleted the message. Still, its funny to imagine this ragehon trying to strangle some old guy with his hrt infestested noodle arms. Potential suicide by cop in the future?

He's a bong troon, it will be suicide by rope.

Because nothing says being a well adjusted individual more than putting your sexual obsession on your skin

Is that the Jetsons maid robot near his ankle?

Didn't see this mentioned here, but there also was a decent amount of Overcast seething in Emporium discord:

Oh no, what will we do without this season's vscript slop?
(for context: this is the guy who tried to insert Freeze Tag into the game)

I like how they always call people out without a single bit of proof. Perhaps they are trying to make it sound worse than it actually is?

Not helping the whole "Emporium trannies like making shit up about other people" stereotype

Aside from that, I noticed that Sonoma's twitter has suddenly gone protected:

Did some of them finally notice this thread? Or perhaps its related to something else?

I love (read: hate) how these trannies just hand-wave away people they don't like by calling them "problematic". Nah, fuck the trannies, they're the problematic ones. They've single-handedly destroyed what used to be a decent community of people by basically introducing a new fucked-up form of segregation to it.

 

[Patrick Bait-man]

Holy fuck these "people" are so retarded it astounds me how they even have the minimum brain cells necessary to have a business relationship with Valve in the first place. I nearly died of pure retardation reading that.

The What decided to post an odd formal video to valve on a secondary channel, which advocates for an in game war paint editor (which would lower the already limbo stick low barrier for entry for war paint creation, meaning any jibbering idiot that knows how to paste images and knows what holiday themes valve wants that year can get paychecks from valve), also if you weren't clued in to where this video's agenda falls, just look at the end credits, which include the creators of gems such as the following.



(I'm sure there are other 'prolific' workshoppers i didn't recognize by name, but you get the gist)

The What

how convenient since yesterday night he also made a vid about mym as well

it's useless blabbing that i couldn't bear to listen since he makes 4 minutes of talking in an hour, and also here's how he looks

https://youtube.fandom.com/wiki/TheWhat_Show#cite_note-12

Spoiler: like pottery

 

[Shoresy]

I think he's watching us. He changed his entire Facebook profile around since I posted that. The new banner and avatar were uploaded half an hour ago according to his page.

I had actually forgotten to save the link to his profile and couldn't find him for a bit until I googled "Facebook Brandon koller Lego" and found a result for a post in the Brickworld group.
View attachment 6746521
When I viewed the post and checked the profile that posted it, same bio and friends #.
View attachment 6746520

Definitely watching us. He's changed his URL, his name, his avatar and his banner again, and removed his bio entirely thinking I'd be unable to find him:

I wonder what he's gonna change his pictures to next.

 

[Patrick Bait-man]

Meanwhile, they're absolutely losing their shit over Overcast's uncredited assets and not getting that 1% cut (Pepperidge Farm remembers Invasion).

Funnily enough the creator is being fairly reasonable and responsive to the situation, offering to remove the assets while the emporium is demanding they get their share instead lmao.

Update: Chuds won, assets replaced with no compensation for the emporium troons.

I get the feeling that he is either super paranoid or there is something more embarrassing about him than just an autistic lego obsession

Does he have other notable socials?

Aw man, I thought this was the tranny door.

He uses the same username everywhere. The ones I found on Google are:

• Twitter/X (protected, though archive.org may be of use here)
• Bluesky
• YouTube
• Tumblr
• Twitch
• AlliedModders
• FurAffinity (seems to be entirely unused, though the fact it even exists is concerning)

There are other results from whatsmyname.app, but most accounts seem to be registered but not used whatsoever. It looks like from 2013-2015 he went around registering his username all over the place but didn't do jack shit. The MANYVIDS result is a false positive as it just takes you to a search results page.

speaking of a new video, some rando youtuber decided to make a small emporium video, nothing huge but it's something

(archive)

also anon summarizes current situation with overcast


e: also there was an interview with one of the overcast map makers on tf2g, got sent this screencap and has some interesting tidbits on this whole drama

I suppose thats better than nothing, considering that Zesty's Emporium video seems to be on indefinite delay. Curious to see Emporiumfags reaction if this goes popular

View attachment 6768488

At this point any self respecting content maker should avoid any of those "content packs" like blight, because you can be sure these rats will try to get their cut the moment your content receives attention from Valve. If anything, using Valve's own assets is more than fine for most cases and probably fits the theme of the game better

less a delay more the mym video comes first, but yes, after this it's unknown when he'll go for broke with that video.

Already been saved on preservetube, decided I should download it to be sure too, seeing this is the Emporium.

Will others beating him to the punch get Zesty to get up off his ass and finish his video? I wouldn't bet on it.

Zesty has said many times that he will publish the Emporium video when he is done with TF2, so not in the next year probably.

i'm making a separate post for it, but it seems tf2g has screenshotted a now-gone conversation with a very famous retard now


and tf2g decided to post this sadly unverifiable pic of him as well?


e: an anon was kind enough to offer this pic, whoever you are thank you anon!



from what i'm gathering there is an absolute meltdown on the entire emporium for that video, better get the most milk out of it asap since it seems like there's going to be a DFE party
