If we were to tell you that youtube "analyst" Digibrony's account was suspended, you may very well reply with "who cares?". In many cases, that was exactly the response that was given, when word came down that such an event had in fact occurred.
Well apparently, the critic can't handle criticism himself, as the master of edge - and "self described Otaku Gonzo Journalist" - implied he would enjoy watching commenters burn alive.
Digibrony's account - "DigibronyMLP" - was suspended by Youtube "due to multiple or severe violations of YouTube's policy against spam, gaming, misleading content, or other Terms of Service violations." But evidently the takedown had nothing to do with ponies, or Hasbro but rather anime, as this letter to the Youtube legal team explains.
Numerous individuals commented, expressing their dislike of his videos and even specific incidents that they did not care for, in turn, criticizing the critic. One would think this would be fair game and a well-known analyst would know how to handle opinions himself.
You would of course be dead wrong, as he went to twitter to whine about it, saying "If this comment thread were a burning building, I'd laugh at every scream and watch until it was nothing but ashes.".
It is remarkable how many "important" people in the pony fandom, publicly dislike the pony fandom.

Oh fucking finally, now he can stop getting shekels from doing something he hates and finally move on.
ReplyDeleteFuck that pretentious shit, I hope he crashes and burns now.
And nothing of value was lost.

ReplyDelete"Oh nonono I'm not a BRONY, ew, disgusting. I am an MLP fan, there's a difference!!!11"
It's been happening since 2012 and it will continue to happen for the remainder of time. The part that confuses me the most is why they all decided to become weebs as opposed to furries or something.
>not knowing that everyone hates bronies ironically
DeleteWelcome to /mlp/ newfag
In this case, there's nothing ironic about it. Not anymore at least.
DeleteBetter that they become weebs than dogfuckers.
DeleteThis fandom is a lot like the video game industry. The highest ones form a circlejerk that hate the people they supposedly cater to and can't take any kind of criticism.
ReplyDeleteAnother self proclaimed Internet Celebrity (tm) throwing a butthurtt tantrum after his source of free attention is shut down.
ReplyDeleteI wish SilverQuill were the next to bite the dust.
Nah, Silver Quill's actually pretty entertaining.
DeleteSilver Quill is a shill because he always tried to add a positive spin to everything no matter how stupid it was.
DeleteOr maybe he's just not a harsh critic. I know it's easy to forget that on /mlp/ with how passionate anons can be with their hatred, but not everybody gets into a frothing rage and declares the creator a hack and the work as complete trash with no redeeming features when they dislike something. Some people do look for the positives. Those people are called optimists, and I generally find them to be pretty nice people, if slightly naive.
DeleteIf anything, Silver Quill's real sin is that he drags down his videos by doing collaborations with far less interesting people. 99% of the brony analysis community are total hackjobs and really should not be spotlighted. It's the same thing that so many people disliked TGWTG for. Silver Quill, Horseshoes, TBBAP and maybe Tommy Oliver on his better days are the only analysts I've ever felt were worth a damn.
I love you, Horse News.
ReplyDeleteDigi manchild confirmed for Phil Fish's gay lover
ReplyDeleteObligatory 'This Is Phil Fish' video

ReplyDeleteHahaha Jesus Christ, they really tore him up. Good stuff.
>kryptonlogic
A twit with an anime face avatar. These are becoming a stereotype.
Anyways, if he means the "disgusting" users on, say, tumblr, then he's actually correct.
Still a holier-than-thy-fandom shithead, though.
Why does everyone hate that guy?
ReplyDeleteI was completely neutral on the subject until I saw this. Fuck this guy and good riddance to his shit.
ReplyDeleteNever cared for this guy, so good riddance.
ReplyDeleteAlso who the fuck is Jose whateverhisname is.
The Head of public relations for Bronycon, the operator of their twitter, former EFN News head, and current writer for Equestria Daily.
Deletehe made himself a twitter account for his logical tweets too https://twitter.com/LogicalKrypton
ReplyDelete"fuck this guy because I don't like him"
ReplyDeletePlease. Digi is no more or less an autistic fucktard than any other youtube e-celeb, should we really be celebrating his takedown?
There are a lot of comments expressing indifference, which makes sense. People won't care if some twat they don't care about gets kicked off YT.
ReplyDeleteA lot of comments there are just pissing on him, though. If he hadn't gone full CR and turned into a brony hater before, he probably will now.
So...is it good he left ponies?
ReplyDeleteHaven't known that much about him, soooooo.... I don't know.
He was okay for a while. Did some interesting analyses and kinda helped pioneer the whole brony analyst YouTuber thing. Then about mid-S4 he suddenly went super emo and changed his formerly likable, happy OC to a chainsmoking coffee-addicted emo (I wish I was making this up) and became progressively darker and le edgier. He dropped doing pony-exclusive stuff shortly after this transition (going from "Digibrony" to just "Digibro"); I stopped watching at that point but from what I understand he only got even "edgier" and more depressing, and started becoming outright hostile towards the show (allegedly just bashing the hell out of the finale). People started getting sick of his shit, so I guess news like this is great for them.
DeleteWow. I had no idea he became so much of a tool.
Delete@Anon2: Damn. I dunno what you mean about hostile, but I wasn't too impressed with the S4 finale either other than the big cool DBZ showdown and nice songs. Either way Digi does sound like he's gone off the deep end. He's had this attitude for a while now, if his Skype hangouts with Horseshoes are any indication. He shit on /mlp/ for being full of anonymous cowards, but this little event shows that anonymity has nothing to do with it. He's just a big butthurt Digifag.

ReplyDeleteWell, if anything I guess the racist spergs at /pol/ were right, autism does self destruct.
I get called a furry enough just for liking a cartoon.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that fursona having stereotype is gone.
One less turd in the punchbowl.
so you're saying there's multiple turds in the fandom punchbowl then
Deletelots.
DeleteI would
ReplyDeleteI'd be running to city hall to apply for a parade license
I stopped watching his shit a long time ago, but if he really did become as much of a fandom-hating edgemaster as I keep hearing, then I pretty much agree with the majority on this.
ReplyDeleteAnything of value was already lost long ago.
How is this even news? Fuck this hiatus is tuning everything to shit.
ReplyDeletedidn't like his analysis vids, didn't agree with his thinking most of the time, and really don't care if he is or not into the fandom anymore, but YT is still in the wrong here, at least imho. I do hope he gets his channel back.
ReplyDeleteOf course now instead of making shitty videos of MLP he has now latched onto anime and has the anime fandom stroking his epeen.
ReplyDeleteSome people say that YouTube is the second largest search engine on the internet - behind Google of course. But YouTube is so much more than just another "search engine". It's a social networking site that can get you and your website tons of exposure, and tons of free publicity that can lead to more traffic and sales for your business. vues de youtube
