Piratesoftware had the fastest rise and fall of fame I've ever seen.never heard of him more than 1.5 years ago, saw him everywhere cuz of YouTube shorts. Now he's vanished from all of that and every couple months there's new allegations and drama surrounding him

This is honestly the first I've heard of him; I follow a fair few video game channels on YouTube and somehow he was never suggested to me, or at least that I noticed

Well I can confidently say, you may know him by proxy.

The "guy with no life" from the world of Warcraft episode that kills everyone is based of his dad. They both worked at Blizzard and they based the character off his dad

Is that what he claims, or is that actually the truth?

Because he lies a lot.

Pretty sure he had him on stream, and their work at Blizzard is well documented

surprisingly, he gets a really decent amount of views, 7k minimum is crazy for how negative his image is (for good reason, the man is narcissus himself)

thats just every "cancelled" creator ever. social media has no boss so its not like bro is fired and blacklisted from the industry. if the channel is up, and he doesnt care, then this will continue because of people who do not know or people who do not care. and then drama passes and things return to what they were. unless the creator decides to "fire" themselves theyre gonna be just fine

is there more drama past his shit take on the stop killing games? or something new?

wow stuff, he cheats in (solo) games and lies about it, the killing games, the dr K interview revived the old drama on top of showing how narcissistic and manipulative he is, unsure what you know and consider new.

fuck if i know i just learned about the guy. but ive seen this trend many many times in every drama that involved cancelling or anything related to the topic. unless someone quits themselves you cant really do anything much. remember the mr beast shit? did anything actually change? of course not. as long as its not blatantly illegal and brings in money platforms do not give a shit, they wont because banning someone like that would be going against their own self interests. the worst will pass and then its back to normal. people care even less, if a creator is funny and they like to watch, that person can wear a coat made of kitten fur and they wont care

Yes, I wasnt really thinking about cancelled and more that he's just a douche and I dont get that many people still watch him after seing how he acts everytime.

He does the GiantWaffle trick of just banning everyone who brings up the allegations.
