The Shoutbox
this was is also the same guy that started a livestream in a public restroom at a convention. so it's not like he was ever working with a full cranium.
i should add that he is a 35 year old man, married, and has kids. so even if they were 18 and it was all above board he'd still be doing damage control.

social media essentially invites this sorta behavior from creeps. it gives them easy, private access to kids who are impressionable and eager to please their "idols". and the platforms don't do anything to stop it.

i couldn't stand the guy, so this is a win for the internet!
Even though I check in with game streamers from time to time, I had somehow totally missed this guy. Not sure I have the time or will to catch up with any of this. What's the short version?
he was like the poster child for Twitch for awhile. the specifics are cloaked in NDAs, most likely, but he openly admitted to talking to a minor and, in his own words, it was "mutual conversations that sometimes leaned too much in the direction of being inappropriate". he got dropped by Twitch but they paid out his contract fully. so it's one of those "what i did wasn't illegal, but it was stupid adjacent".

basically, he probably sexted with a 15-17 year old, but since no images were exchanged and they never met in the real world Twitch couldn't get out of paying, and so they just opted to pay and drop him.

the game developer company he was a part of, which had a friend as a co-founder, also dropped him. i think that, in and of itself, speaks volume.

Which is why I wanted a cheat-sheet… but probably best if I keep investigating myself.

"i know these look like minors. but totally not"
