Didn’t say he did.
I’m saying it doesn’t matter and I don’t care.
He’s just a random person, he isn’t your friend or your family or someone close to you (most likely but I could be wrong), so his staying or leaving has no real effect on you at all. People get emotionally invested in content creators and games and feel the need to share their feelings all the time.
It isn’t necessary.
I kind of don’t think that’s fair to the people that do pay to boost, either. They just finished paying to buy the game (paying to play it) and then they pay more money to skip all the game’s content (paying even more money to not play the game they just paid to play!).
Imagine if when you bought a movie ticket you could pay an extra $5 to start watching halfway through the film. It’s fine - all the fun fight scenes happen in the second half! Who cares about the whole journey leading up to that, ye?
Just kind of a rip-off in convenience’s clothing.

But you’re also trying to tell him what he should have done, and you don’t have a right to do that. The thing about youtube is anyone can upload anything they want so long as it falls within TOS. Telling him “just make a tweet” is aiming to take his right to upload away from him, or acting like you have the right. And you don’t.
Who cares? It’s the internet. People upload stuff all the time. Pictures of their cats, their dogs, their kids, their takes, their opinions. If you have a problem with one guy who has an actual following posting his thoughts for his followers, then you should have a problem with the entire concept of social media, and the internet as a whole.
Nothing we upload is, but we upload anyway. You’re complaining to complain. You’re no better than he was.

So this I actually agree with.
I’m against people buying skips for story content and such because they get to the end and don’t know what going on.
I support it being there as an option to those who want it, but I always caution people from doing so because why play an mmo to skip everything?
Ultimately it’s up to them but I come down hard on allowing customers to use their money however they want.
I’m not telling him how to do anything. Stop insinuating. And in very much against the personality superstars aspect of social media. It’s actually made things so much worse for the internet as people flock to h likeminded firebrand who turns out to be a nut job.
These were your words. It doesn’t matter what you think, he has a right to upload his thoughts in whatever form he does. Just like you, me, or anyone else out there.

That was listing other options he could have done instead of making a video. It was not telling him what he should have done. Don’t be disingenuous, it’s unbecoming if you.
You don’t get to tell him what he should have done though, or what he could have done. Content creation is about creating things and putting it out there for people to observe.
If you were merely listing what “he could have done” instead, then fine. But it seems to me like all you’ve done throughout this whole thread is complain because someone did what they’ve always done - uploaded a video talking about their thoughts about something.
It’s the internet. People upload much worse daily. You should be championing the removal of social media instead.

Yeah it is a little weird to say you don’t care about someone and then spend an hour ranting about them.

Oh not complaining about him doing it.
I’m saying it doesn’t matter that he did and nobody should care.
So some rando streamer leaves, big deal, life goes on.
Literally the message I’ve been putting out there.
You people attach yourselves to these people like you know them, it’s sad.

I mean people keep responding to me and I can’t help myself when I see the blue symbol for responses lol.
Totally fine dropping it if people stop pinging me lol
And that is arguing semantics.
While I do concur on the whole with thee, this I dispute. He may so do, but Madseason bith under no legal compunction to adhere to aught he saith.
The implication bith obvious, though, in the context of the conversation; that he believeth Madseason should have, rather than releaseth a video, issueth a tweet

Wolf is my new favorite person.
Wonder if they talk like this in game too.
Same. That fancy way of typing/speaking gets me smiling every time.
And rip Madseason. I liked his videos.
I can understand the dislike for adding tokens, but I don’t know why boosts are a line in the sand for many people. I think the main arguments is bots, but what about the player who did not play Classic and wants to play TBCC? Should they be expected to slog thru classic (content they had no desire to play) to play the content they are interested in? Are Classic players mad that the new player will skip the “Classic leveling experience”? What experience is that…sit in SM while someone power levels you? It’s acceptable for me to grind for gold just to give to another player to level my character, but how dare I spend real money for a boost? Where is the disdain for the boosters for robbing these new players of the experience of leveling through questing and finding groups for dungeons? I do not remember seeing adverts for power leveling when I started playing in 2006, but to be honest it is embarrassing how much I did not know back then. As I understand it, there’s only one boost per account so if you want to level another toon then you need to level it. That should be ok. Classic players are playing the same game from 15 years ago, but their experience is not the same…and it never will be. As the saying goes “You can never go home again.”
Even though he has one more in the pipeline, it’s too bad his farewell video has been overshadowed by Blizz’s current crisis. His videos will be missed even if not everything he says resonates. Hey, no one’s perfect. lol
