Nick Robinson has been posting videos more frequently lately so I thought I'd continue my work of educating people about his terrible reputation by compiling as much info as I could into a google doc. There is so much misinformation out there with people saying false statements such as "it was just awkward flirting" or "there were no real victims". I want to give people a greater context of what went on and make it abundantly clear that what Nick Robinson was doing in the gaming/game journalism industry was NOT OKAY and he never took even close to full accountability for his actions.
If you have any suggestions for edits on the google doc, please leave a comment here or DM me. I'm sure there are aspects of this doc that could be improved. And please share this around as much as you can. I hope this will be a helpful resource for disproving misinformation and educating people that had no idea about Nick Robinson's past.

In reference to the Watcher situation
Does anyone have a copy of the Hopeless Peaches document about their experience with Lio Convoy? It seems like they deleted it.
Link to the deleted doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/17PPfAoLFXcND9I89T6h_RkuTR9wLNzRtXs4A2HfTiTM/edit#heading=h.utd5rkw85ws8
The way none of the comments I've seen have said anything about assuming Watcher is rich...
Here’s the video comparing the two animations:

Here’s the original animation alongside the animator talking about how he’s aware this has been happening and he hasn’t authorized it:

Admittedly I’m not really sure who LankyBox even is, but I was shocked to see they’ve got roughly 36M subscribers and average around 100k-300k per upload. Their content is sorta all over the place and I can’t even begin to describe what it is. It just feels like anything to get the attention of curious kids I guess?
Credit to Henry Resilient and his video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xknPQSf_bF4 . The video shows what jameskii lied in the google doc he posted with proof from public court documents and transcripts. Henry only redacted private info like names, addresses and phone numbers so if you want to see all that then in the video description he put ways to see the court docs and transcripts themselves if you want to or simply want to see if he was bs. In my last post I did showed the recording of a conversation of twomad and his alleged victim, i want to put other interesting thing i left out. Henry Resilient said that jameskii told him that the recording was deepfaked or ai, which is strange since you'd think he would've said that the recording is gross to use and disrespectful to use BUT he didn't. Henry mentions this two times, once in the post from before with the video taken down and again in this video. In the beginning of this new video Henry Resilient also said that it's that recording that taken down his video and other youtuber's videos. I should've added what jameskii said about the recording in my last post but i guess i forgot about it until i heard it mentioned again. I can post the recording as well since i downloaded the whole clip before it got taken down, let me know where i can safely upload it.
TW: Mention of Mental Illness and ED
For those who don't know, Mei Monte is now a beauty and lifestyle influencer (previously also a cosplayer) who was recently exposed by a past friend and ex-boyfriend for stealing, cheating, making someone develop an ED, and many more. Part 1 will be linked here. Disclaimer: Having mental health issues and an ED is not the issue nor the callout, her actions towards others are the issue. Your mental health is YOUR responsibility, and not a "get out of jail" pass.
Part 2 is an update regarding other friends' experiences with her having been her friend which led to her past friends realizing that they were both lied to and manipulated. Here is an outline of what part 2 has to offer
1. Promotion of eating disorders
2. Spontaneous breakup after developing a crush on RM from BTS
7. Fabricated stories about friends for content
8. Miscellaneous Compulsive Lies / Loss of Contact with Reality"
This post, again, is not something petty but a warning to those who idolize her. She can easily manipulate people. Upon visiting her youtube page, someone commented that since watching Mei Monte, her image of her own body has since been distorted due to Mei's unhealthy and toxic posts regarding weightloss.
Unfortunately, due to her looks and her wide audience, no one has been able to reach out to her and she is, to this day, uploading videos as if she's innocent.
"Ever since we met, she always knew she could get away with a lot of things. I just didn't know she'd actually do horrible things to people.. I wish I could've' done something to stop this.." - Past Friend.
Derek Graz is permanently banned on every platform (kick included!) other than YouTube apt. It’s very disturbing that yt would allow this. He has announced he will stream on YouTube in a couple days and he privated all of his old streams and vids on yt because they were filled with him sexually harassing minors and snapping girls as young as 13. New evidence has come out against him and he even made a new video admitting To secretly recording girls. Why is YouTube ignoring reports about him? (He did a lot of this content on YouTube as well before kick). This video includes a ton more evidence and it is insane to think YouTube is allowing him to stream on there.
If Asmondgold reacts to this and all four dudes end up in the same thumbnail, it'll literally be the four horsemen and the end times will come
Some are pretty obvious but sometimes the lines get blurred and I can’t tell or not. Maybe the feeling of it being AI is enough of a sign but IDK.
A peer of Silvervale, StellyriaFae released a Google Doc containing a list of transphobic Vtubers/Communities to avoid:

Unfortunately this attracted the attention of known lolicon defender, Rev says desu

And SmugAlana reacting to Rev, downplaying the Google Doc in her video description as "slimy attention seeking behavior"

Maybe I'm misremembering but I could swear Critical Drinker of the past was clever, pretty funny, and more importantly not an alt right nut shaking his fist at women and POC.
Shoutout to José for his recent video that takes a deep dive into how his current level of criticism is "shallow conservative" shit.
I hope this isn't a bad place to ask this, I've seen posts like this in the past and they seemed fine but I'll take it down if this isn't "on topic"
I've been a fan of Chuggaconroy for more of my life than not, and though I have some mixed feelings on how the whole situation turned out I've decided for me personally I'd rather not watch his content again. Thing is I really liked how he made lets plays, a series on a game he's already played and is extremely knowledgeable about showing you all the content it has to offer.
I like it far more than many modern lets players who play something for the first time and often only do one video per game, but unfortunately this is what most modern letsplayers I'm familiar with do, I was wondering if anyone here knows of other youtubers who take on the more "comprehensive" style I can watch instead?
posted this in r/watcherentertainment and it got taken down. But anyone else sooo upset about this development? I love Watcher but can’t afford yet another subscription service

Correction: It's actually six dollars a month
I've followed the boys since the Buzzfeed days, love their shows and I honestly get where they're coming from in wanting to maintain a certain quality standard.
They seem to want to emulate Dropout, but with a market so saturated - even when it comes to streaming services catered to YouTubers, it feels like it may have been a better idea to join or merge with a different platform than go completely solo
The comments seem to agree, lambasting the decision to switch from YouTube to an exclusive service, so we'll have to see if any course corrections happen in the next month before the official launch on May 31st

Yeah this is a call out from Wilymacshow about DarkviperAU, from his constant aggression and black and white thinking regarding react channels, to his overreaction to stuff such as the video of Among Us where he reacts badly to someone not being good at the game. Of course he will always say it is "Out of context" . And then there is what seemed to be him striking down critics who make a video of him, the most noted is Chudlogic's video.
And lastly, there is the pure irony of a Speedrunner being as salty as he is of someone else beating GTA5 with no damage before he did. Like sorry man, but that is what competition is.

Admittedly I haven’t heard of this guy until now but just judging by a lot of his thumbnails, getting big conservative anti-female grifter vibes. He does tv/film reviews but as you can tell it’s only for big franchises, and pretty largely just for female-focused series, like Captain Marvel, Ashoka, and various live action Disney remakes. It just screams the diet IHE mixed with a dash of Critical Drinker
