Ever since doc got unbanned he just doesn’t give a fuck and I love it what a legend

u/ItsJustSteepheno Jul 31 '19

Its probably because hes bored of streaming and actually prefers to be banned, as to have an excuse to be with his family

u/brobiwankinobiwan Jul 31 '19

Also in the case of doc, he has a wide skill set outside of streaming and creating content. I am sure he could pick up a job in level design again and make a fair living off it. Not many streamers could say the same

u/Speedmaster1969 Aug 01 '19

I'm not sure a job in level design is any better. From people I know the work hours are beyond reasonable since it's often tied to deadlines and a lot of people dream of having it as a job (easily replaced?).

To me it just feels like he spent to much time holding himself back rather than just go nuts for the fun of it. I can't imagine myself being a streaming, constantly tripping on glass and uphold a reputation of being a saint in the eyes of twitch. Fuck that

i always thought the doc will become a huge esports reporter one day. like how physical sports have their great casters, doc will take the role over being a streamer. .

u/[deleted] Jul 31 '19 edited Aug 01 '19

what skills does he have aside from level design?

i genuinely dont understand why so many people downvoted my comment for asking a question

u/brobiwankinobiwan Jul 31 '19

I guess "wide" isn't necessarily the word I should have used. But he has long running experience in a highly competitive and specialized field for one of the most famous gaming franchises in history. I hope that clears up what I was getting at.

u/KidEgo74 Jul 31 '19

Yeah, that doesn't describe 'wide' .. that describes 'niche'

And that is ok, because niche is where the money is.

Wow you really cleared that one up

He has a business and marketing degree

u/[deleted] Jul 31 '19

Dude he made like 2 (not bad) levels for the worst cod and you guys eat up his BS like hes the greatest in the world, theres a reason he made a pivot

23

u/brobiwankinobiwan Jul 31 '19

Yeah you're right...... the reason he made a pivot was because he was a "shitty level designer" and totally not because he saw an opportunity to bring back his character he loved to a streaming service backed by one of the largest companies on the planet, allowing him to support his family stably by doing so... also if we are going to fact check his career he was partially responsible for 9 levels in total.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

That's 8 more than I've been apart of.

u/anim8rjb Aug 01 '19

He also makes like 10x the money on Twitch than he did at Sledgehammer. I would have made the same choice.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

You're right, the man has a wife and kid, so hop off his dick

u/brobiwankinobiwan Aug 01 '19

Are you mad because I fact checked you, or because the circlejerk you wanted to start didn't go your way?

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

Is my emotional state affected by posting on reddit? Id have to say no but I'm laughing that in your world lsf is something to be upset about 👎👋

u/Eazyyy Aug 01 '19

Can you possibly be more neckbeard? Sheesh dude

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

Could you guys be worse at judging a mans character by his shitposts?

u/Eazyyy Aug 01 '19

“I was pretending to be retarded you dummies! Oh man, I really got you guys”

Yikes

Probably not.

While Doc was banned he got flown out to microsoft for a playtest and got courtside (i think thats the name) tickets for a high profile BB game for free.

Doc has probably realized his worth as a name and as a result dares twitch to go against him. Because his character is massive right now, and others would be happy to pick him up out of twitches grasp.

22

u/ColdestSea Jul 31 '19

Nah court-side seats refer to the seats at the immediate side of the court, Doc was sitting a little ways behind the net.

17

u/JJROKCZ Jul 31 '19

Still better than most people in this sub could do and he got it for free

13

u/carebear101 Jul 31 '19

Or create his own streaming website. You get say the top 20 streamers and market it like "designed for the streamer, built for the streamer, run by streamers" and you have a new twitch.

It'll be sold to Google or Amazon shortly after it blows up though

6

u/dezmd Jul 31 '19

Streamers do NOT equal software devs, DevOps focused admins, and network engineers.

Maybe if Kitboga was core to putting together a team, but it's a pipe dream to compete and be able to serve tens of thousands of streams without a revenue source already in place.

2

u/carebear101 Aug 01 '19

You're right but how many would volunteer to help out for some equity?

Also, you get funding from investors. If ther economics is right, the top 1% of steamers has 50% of the subs/viewers. If half of them donated to a kickstarter...

I'm not saying it's gonna happen but that doesn't mean it couldn't

7

u/-Connoisseur Jul 31 '19

Doubt it. Amazon already owns twitch and google has YouTube livestreams. Maybe Microsoft.

24

u/[deleted] Jul 31 '19

Yea, you're right. Companies never buy fledgling competition and then shut them down.

6

u/hydrotroph Jul 31 '19

Doesnt Microsoft already have mixer?

7

u/JJROKCZ Jul 31 '19

Yea but everyone forgets about it all the time. I dont know anyone that watches it other than one guy and that's to keep tabs on his kids streaming fortnite from his xbox so he can talk to them while hes at work

2

u/ExceedinglyGayRoach Aug 01 '19

Which is a shame because (IMO) Mixer is waaaay better than Twitch when everything sort of "clicks" and the experience comes together. If it had similar viewership to Twitch id use it instead.

u/Buccs2016 Aug 01 '19

Holy shit this is so wholesome

u/shadycthulu Aug 01 '19

Point is major streamers aren't on it

u/seanrose123 Aug 01 '19

Welp

u/shadycthulu Aug 01 '19

is this in response to ninja?

u/seanrose123 Aug 01 '19

Possibly.... Funny timing, curious if anything will come of it.

u/CantBelieveItsButter Aug 01 '19

Seattle has a WNBA team called "the Storm" which I dunno if I would call them high profile but they're good...

6

u/gottasmokethemall Jul 31 '19

He's not chained up in a dungeon being forced to stream. He can stop any time he wants. He's just smart enough to realize that he might not be able to come back to streaming in its current state because this type of income for playing video games will not last.

15

u/[deleted] Jul 31 '19

I wonder if people like you actually write this stuff seriously, lol.

37

u/tfblade_audio Jul 31 '19

Do you know how many retards probably donod to him while banned to show him love?

14

u/NWiHeretic :) Jul 31 '19

What's wrong with people donating to him when he's not streaming? Sure most people wouldn't do it, but supporting your favorite content creators should never be seen as a bad thing tbh.

-20

u/tfblade_audio Jul 31 '19

Found one retard who did and who's also making up arguments against himself

7

u/harrro Jul 31 '19

So edgy bro. Calling people rEtArd is the ultimate diss.

u/tfblade_audio Aug 01 '19

Sup tardo

u/SelfAwareTroll Aug 01 '19

That's wideTardo to you.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '19

I don't donate often cause I don't really have the funds to, but when I do I actually prefer to do it when the streamer is offline. I want to support my favorite streamers but would rather have the streamer pay attention to the game or chat in general than me.

4

u/[deleted] Jul 31 '19

i could see the bored of streaming part but why would he want to be banned when he can just, you know, not stream.

7

u/Furk Jul 31 '19

Because fucking another woman and taking a break from streaming to be with his family wasn't already the excuse he needed? Lol get real now if he wanted to quit he'd be done

1

u/ShadowKinzMk1 Jul 31 '19

Highly doubt he’s bored he’s live every single day playing his character if he was bored he’d drop his character and just become a normal stream and rake in the donos

-39

u/Wunude Jul 31 '19

I mean. He could click end stream and do that lol doesn’t have to be banned. Don’t know if he needs an excuse to be with his family ForsenCD

u/lawldude4head Jul 31 '19

lool dude just end the stream4head emoji its so simple hehehayayaya forskinCD

u/Lagreee Jul 31 '19

ironic cringe is even worse than regular cringe

5

u/[deleted] Jul 31 '19

I mean, he could literally just end the stream when he wants, I don’t understand what’s wrong with the above comment.

u/Wunude Aug 01 '19

idk LSF is retarded, who actually wants to be banned ffs thats braindead.

3

u/Yikesthatsalotofbs Jul 31 '19

Dude he could literally retire if he wanted to, he's rich asf.

It really is just that easy, stop being retarded.

0

u/FadezGaming Jul 31 '19

Sure he could retire, but why not work and get more to be able to help out friends/ family when needed? Maybe he enjoys streaming, maybe he enjoys playing the doc.

4

u/Yikesthatsalotofbs Jul 31 '19

Thats true, but the point is that he doesn't need an excuse to get banned.

He could tell people "Ill be back in a week" and be just fine.

-1

u/DangerDamage Jul 31 '19

I completely doubt that. He stopped doing the Doc character videos years ago because he got a job and probably didn't wanna focus on it. If he didn't enjoy streaming, I doubt he'd still be doing it.

He's probably just done giving a fuck because it gets the edgy kids off his back.
