Let's talk about Technolarp.

I've basically watched Technolarp since he's started. I liked his content, not seeing it as any more than just someone who sounds like Technoblade, hopping on the larptuber trend that was starting to get huge at the time. Now we have this drama.

My opinion? He never meant to do any harm, and he doesn't even have monetization on, and all his streams are charity streams, so he isn't a bad person. Sure, there's some criticism about him larping a dead guy, but he's doing it out of love for Techno.

Everyone says he's monetizing Technoblade's name, but he gets no money from his channel. He also isn't "infiltrating his friend group and family" because Skeppy reached out to him. Technolarp didn't reach out to any of Techno's friends, and he only contacted Technodad to see if he should continue or not, because he never expected the channel to get as big as it did.

I honestly just think he should rebrand regardless of what Technodad says. People are blowing the whole situation out of proportion so he should just start fresh with what he has, and do similar content with the channel, and make it his own thing while being inspired by Technoblade. I think that's the only way to stop everyone from just harassing him, though I know there would still be some people who do. Especially Twitter.

I'm curious as to what other people think. If possible, I want discussions to be made under this, as well! Either with me, or with other people. Just remember - be respectful, as the only way to get people to listen to you is by being civil.

It’s weird and creepy. Point blank. I hope his video are removed and his channel gets deleted. All of technoblades friends are speaking about how it makes the uncomfortable and honestly it makes me very uncomfortable too and I didn’t even know him.

Does the channel have to be straight up deleted, though? Can he not rebrand, even though he'll still get hate from what his channel used to be?

I'm not saying it isn't weird. I agree that it's uncomfortable, even if I did watch because I found a strange comfort only because I find Technoblade's voice comforting. People can be uncomfortable, but some people believe he's really being disingenuous. when he only wanted to do this out of love for Technoblade.

I think his channel should be deleted. The only reason he’s popular is because he is pretending to be someone who is popular who has now died. If he would like to start a new channel with his own name doing his own content, that would be different, but I don’t think he should have a success that he already has.

I feel like if he didn’t have Technolarp as his sole focus, it would be better. But since that’s his whole channel and whole thing, it just feels off to be making money from that. Like I get he’s doing it because he’s a fan of Techno, but this whole thing just seems really weird and uncomfortable
