I wonder if TB is ever embarrassed by the actions his fans take on his "behalf."
Probably very often.
He is, and he's frequently spoken out against it. Especially the whole "Cynical Fleet has arrived" bullshit that was going about a year ago. He said he wants viewers, not fans. Fans are blind , idiotic sheep. Viewers are simply viewers, and he hopes to have at least a semi-intelligent viewerbase.

I...dunno....what to say. That's got to be the worst thing he could have heard today.

Dangit. My thoughts go out to him.

I had the very unpleasant experience of receiving a full frontal assault of "internet-shitstorm" last year, when casually commented on that fighting games have very sexualised female characters, and TotalBiscuit replied, disagreeing. I got completely ransacked for about a week by angry internet kids that sent me emails, twitterposts, direct messages and youtube messages telling me just how "retarded" I was and how I should "kill myself" and what a "f*cking whiteknight" I was and how I shouldn't "expect to get laid" for saying that. For that week, not a single one of my uploaded videos on Youtube had more than 10% likes. I was being "dislike-bombed" by the Internet justice brigade.
 
Now, that was just a single week. I could survive that, even though it was extremely taxing dealing with all that crap every day. Now imagine ALWAYS living with it. Nope.

I wonder if TB is ever embarrassed by the actions his fans take on his "behalf."
Probably very often.
this reminds me once of when a you tuber I used to watch(and still do) called josh scorcher made a reply to a video enougher YouTube person made basically saying she disagreed that he didn't okami in this video he said why he disagreed with some of the things she said and yea know what happened? his fan base bombed her with death threats and so on in till the poor woman deleted her channel I should mention that he made a video after that basically how angry he was at them for being such dickheads after words as well.

also I hope total biscuits last quit is permanent all getting involved with it seems to do is cause him grief  which sucks because I love that mans channel plus he got me into arcen so I have him to thank for that.

No matter what people think of TotalBiscuit, I think he's been a major pillar in the gaming community, and it's going to be very hard to see him struggle with this. I dunno why this hit me so hard. I don't know him and I've never met him, but he feels very close to me regardless.
