glad you liked my video
"mindcrack lore from a decade ago" is about right for me. I'm vaguely associated with "the mindcrackcirclejerk faction" if that phrase isn't complete nonsense, wildfallen was there too. We sorta implicitly took rob's side in that split, there because at time Guude was the one who had publicly feuded with more people
Rob won the optics lore on the split
So I think most people ended up leaning on his side
I too was looking at his linked accounts leg, cool stuff you work on
that community is wild, the people who are really into it are trying to make EVERYTHING compatible
Karp finished his starcraft integration, and then immediately started getting hounded to work on getting other games working
Replying to MrCheeze #mrcheeze_ I was involved in Paper Mario randomizer a bit, and my main awareness is those guys being asked about integration (which they haven't done)
I played that one when we did our big arch game
thats cool
I mostly only play OoT Rando's but the paper mario one was pretty good
I am waiting patiently someday for some group to take the decomp to make a pc port for paper mario

what I'm unsure about right now is how much it's "he was always bad" (as guude says) vs "he changed" (considering cases like the karate master vid where he went out of his way to build support for a member who had a hatedom)
I guess for someone so roleplay focused it's easy to slip in and out of the persona of who he was supposed to be
From our perspective, he was always an asshole, but he did get way worse
He just got more of a pass because he was also genuinely talented and funny
Its fine, we like rehashing this every other week
I've been doing it for the last 6 years or so since he started imploding
We are probably the only group that still actively pays attention to Rob (he does literally nothing now, so it is less interesting)
I think peak Rob was 2022-2023 for the antifan archival community
2024 Rob has not been interesting to follow
That was a blip in another otherwise boring arc
But yeah, the sex pest inner circle mod was crazy
and fun here because we got 2 or 3 people involved in that to come leak shit here for us, which was based

there used to be a mindcrack drama subreddit as well (they called it "MindcrackDiscussion") that was super autistic about dissecting every bit of drama as it was happening live, and even they have been totally dead for years and hardly noticed the end of that brand
Ilovecp goes hard
that guy picked a username

oh jesus I didn't even notice that
I've been there before, but tbh I was only really a pyropuncher fan as far as mindcrack goes, so I was never as involved in that community
him and beef are the only people I directly watched their mindcrack lp videos
I'll have to play Vech's game if it ever comes out, since I told him I would
He's kind of weird, but he also talked with me so I like him
The only mindcracker I know anything about more recently was blamethecontroller, because he rebranded and joined the media criticism youtubers like mauler and what not
that era of YouTube ending was sad, there really is nothing like 2014-2018 YouTube
it wasn't as creative and shitposty as pre-2014, but it felt like everyone was having a good time and videos were fun
now most people with that "YouTube should be fun" mindset have quit or died and the platform feels really sterile
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak him and beef are the only people I directly watched their mindcrack lp videos
personally I was one of the etho kids. in fact, his single player LP was the first series I followed on youtube, period
That's Polu as well, big "I wish Etho was my dad" vibes

probably too much tbqh
You're confusing terms
alog, not a lolcow
I think he meant lolcow follower, alog implies you directly fuck with the person
also I like doing data analysis, that which is why that exists lmao
For the record, I am a huge math nerd (doing a PhD in math), so sometimes I waste a lot of time doing random data analysis, which sometimes ends up being about Rob since that is something I follow
Oh I just read it wrong whoops
You should see my fire emblem heroes spreadsheet lmao
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak I think he meant lolcow follower, alog implies you directly fuck with the person
not necessarily, you can cross the line without actually interacting, and some of the more insignificant stuff in there is getting too close for comfort
I think we are just going to have to disagree, I think having it affect your life is going to far, me spending an hour tracking some weird thing does not affect my life.
Pika, we should have removed all ambiguity and bought that bench at Rob's park
which is over the line, but funny
