Its pretty stupid seeing that guy say "this is crazy" like he made some genius revelation and puts it out for the likes retweets or whatever the fuck kind of satisfaction he gets from "notifying" his followers. Fuck that guy and fuck people who shit on the dead. May he rest in peace

I mean I get endless amounts of hate every single day just from playing video games online. On top of hate from people at work and general society attitude. Only difference is I would be famous.

Yeah but people don't try and ruin you is my guess atleast not to the extent of someone well known. Its toxic. I understand what you are saying but man people just take it to the extreme

The difference being you can just leave a lobby or get off for the day. The same people don't follow you day in and day out picking at any perceived weakness over and over forever.

This guy was severely depressed and Bi polar. Some of the comments that would get said to him would wear down a completely mentally healthy person.

For anyone who doesn't know, Reckful pioneered IRL streaming and basically invented text to speech donations. Most every Twitch streamer who's been around for a while looked up to Byron and considered him an inspiration and a friend.

We all knew him, we all liked him, and we'll all shed a tear for him. He was the Godfather of Twitch and there will never be another like him. RIP

this is not true. you might be a fan but please don't pretend he had any clout outside of real life streams, WoW and LSF subreddit. I watched reckful for all of 30 seconds and found him incredibly boring. I would be amazed if anybody I watch on twitch ever gave him a second thought, nevermind find him inspirational

Yeah I totally forgot that he pioneered IRL and that. Damn

The people that take the time to actually go out of there way to make a troll account or just say fuck it and make really shitty tweets/donations to his friend's whether it's online or on Twitter are the biggest pieces of shit I've ever seen. It's shocking that people operate this way.

Edit: I posted this before I saw what this zammox guy said. There's literally 25+ streamers who talk about how much they looked up to Byron and how deeply this has impacted them, not to mention the countless amount of fans who he's helped. STFU.

Not only is this in really bad taste but you are also completely wrong. This guy was pretty much the grand father of Twitch and one of the most influential pioneers of video game recording in general. You can talk about the impact this guy had for hours.

I hope this is trollin

i don't watch real life streamers or follow twitch gossip so he's not a big deal to me. I see no influence over the people I watch on stream, except maybe they use TTS? I guess his fans live in a small bubble and can't imagine the world outside of their own.

provide some examples that do not revolve around WoW, parasocial relationships, building a community of gossip and drama or real life streaming.

This year has not been kind to anyone including myself. I don't think I'll ever recover from the loss of Hana and the way she went out.

May this man's soul find peace.
Social media was truly a mistake.

Maybe you should ask them first instead of just assuming they're as ignorant as yourself

Reynad was the first with tts. Reckful was the first to have personal donations through PayPal before it was integrated into Twitch.

A bigger pioneer imo.
