I knew about it as the friendly creeper was one of the first videos I watched because a similar thing happened in one of my sisters old pocket edition world when we were kids around the same time the series started
It was also Stampy's idea to get rid of every character that could be traced back to a real person and not an actor. That is why he had people like William Beaver and Polly Raindeer, because a beaver and raindeer would never do something like that.
yea it makes sense, if the person who plays william/polly does something bad, stampy can always get rid of them and have another friend play that character
Yep! And also stampys friends play the characters behind the scenes and we dont know whos stampys friends are in real life. The only 1 we know is his partner but they are married so it would be a 0% chance of them doing something bad
Personally, I think Stampy’s Lovely World was at its best when Stampy’s helpers were actual people. The videos after they all left were still enjoyable, but something just felt like it was missing.
I kinda agree although they were always actors, Stampy’s been very open about how scripted everything is, and how people act in that series is nothing like how they act in real life.

I remember watching sqaishey and stampy as a kid and noticing the way they talked to each other, I thought "they have to be dating." I'm delighted to hear they got married.
Honestly, I think this goes to show how responsible and mature Stampy is, while also managing to keep that jolly and silly tone in his videos. I think that’s why I find him so beloved. His personality really does shine unlike any other Minecraft CC. Unlike the content farmers, he has an iconic personality and iconic content that never really did fall off. While his Lovely Minecraft World was and still is iconic, I don’t think I'll ever forget his Terraria playthrough. That, alone, always had me hooked whenever I watched it.

Fr. Back then (i was like 6 or 7) i was like “WHY, this is so stupid its not happening!” As a junior in high school. Listening to the story was sickening.
Seeing all these old names pop up brought back memories from years ago Can't even fathom the fact that Lionmaker spent only 10 months in prison. Bro needs to go back in there for life.
@@VioIet_Evergreen ColossalIsCrazy literally ripped Lionmaker a new one years ago when he was checking out the p43d0 warnings going off about Lionmaker, and instead of saying he didn't do it Lionmaker defended being a MAP and showed 0 understanding why children can't consent and other hallmarks of the scum of the earth. The proof is, quite literally, there for all to see. "The Depravity of a Minecraft Creator | The Lionmaker Saga" by j aubrey and TheRightOpinion, but if you don't want the breakdown, ColossalIsCrazy has the "Lionmaker Interview" up in full and it's over 7 years old. So yeah, no, that's not a lie.
Me too, he was my favorite for a while because his hide and seek videos were so funny in my eyes. I was pretty young though, like 12-13, and when I heard a small bit of the accusations against him I was shocked that someone would accuse such a nice person. Then his channel just disappeared one day, and after failing to find it, I went on to watch other Minecraft TH-camrs who I actually liked more. Years later I learned the truth and was shocked, and realized that all my fondness for lionmaker might have been a result of his manipulation in videos, endearing himself to us. Looking back now it’s still hard to fathom. The TH-camrs I went on to watch are all off in different walks of life, yet I still watch their old videos as a source of comfort. Not lionmaker though.
Good thing back when I first watched Minecraft TH-cam videos back in 2014, I never watched the Lovely World. Instead, I was mainly into PopularMMOs TNT and Mod Showcase videos, Orepros, ExplodingTNT, and DanTDM. Unfortunately, Pat, the guy behind PopularMMOs, was involved in an incident in Jacksonville that landed him in jail.
One thing I find rather lovely about this is that all the lovely helpers (bar the two who shall not be named) ended up nicely as the shots from their recent posts on social media show them with families or just having lives after TH-cam and even a few stayed and made followings of their own which kind of shows how much time has pasted and how stampy has been such a long time influence on peoples lives as the people he played with at the start have all since changed some are no longer friends with him some are and just it kind of just shows that life goes on idk it feels so wholesome compared to how some other series or groups end and even those who are no longer friends with him ended nicely and no drama (bar the two who shall not be named)
I'm still so happy that specifically Squid is doing really well, considering him and Stampy have always been seen as a duo. It sucks that they don't do much together anymore but it's so nice to see that they're both really happy.
@@rainestorm6029 Lmao exactly some of the actual helpers were more evil then the antagonist of stampy's series itself careful guys *there is a mole in our midst's*
I miss the old helpers, every single one of them even if they appeared in a hundred or 2 episodes. They felt more real, more human than William Beaver or Fizzy Elephant who you could tell were paid actors. Theres always something about the in game names that stuck, "L for Lee", "BreadStix", "Liamardo39", you just know there's a actual person behind that mask. But i understand why he phased the actual helpers out, you ultimately cant control people but you can control characters
Here’s a little story, I watched Stampy since he first started back in the day. I have grown up for so many episodes all the way to 400. One day during the lead to 450 we had a big life crisis and lost Internet for a long while so I cried because his series was what got me through my childhood and taught me the meaning of teamwork and friendship… But to come back to it, I have never watched Stampy again since episode 600… And to come back to see what Some of these people have done, makes me regret growing up to know these people by watching their content along Stampy.. I’m just glad that Stampy cared about his audience, put matters first and dealt with them amazingly well. I just wish it could’ve been better for some around him. But to this day even without some of his helpers, I wouldn’t be where I am today. He is the reason why I have friends.
Lmao, I’d watch stamps every time I visited my grandma. I only saw some of the iconic (or most memorable) episodes. I only saw the final conclusion back last year. And damn. It’s fucked to think that even outside all of this, some folks just let us down.
Never once did I even think that Squaishey had a real name, lmao. I don't know why I never considered that Squaishey wouldn't be legally called Squaishey. Like I knew everyone else had "normal" names but consider my mind blown hearing about Kye!
I grew up watching Stampy, so while this was a welcome blast from the past, I was genuinely sad by the end. It felt like watching your heroes reveal that they were actually terrible people, and tricked you into feeling otherwise. I know that's really not what happened ( Stampy is a king for putting up with this btw ) but it still really hurt
From the stamplongnose wiki, “Hit the Target was originally a real person, but at some point that person stopped playing Minecraft and "Hit the Target" became a character used as the main antagonist of the Stampy's Lovely World series. This article mainly talks about the character.” Knowing Sqaishey had to substitute for lee at times, the same would be assumed for Hit the Target, So either Sqaishey played hit the target in episodes, or one of the other helpers did.
@@H-nt yes that's more than likely the case. In fact a few years ago he accidentally uploaded an uncut video which showed that Squashy is probably at least one of the characters in most episodes.
I believe he stopped playing minecraft and quit the series but allowed Stampy to continue using the character. HTT rarely had a voice role and if he did, it was either played by a bot, Stampy, or Squaishy herself. That being said, it's likely HHT was played by a bot after a while since HTT did not have any voice lines everything he did was conveyed by his actions, not words.
Bit of a correction for Captain Sparkelz, he wasn’t exactly the real guy. This person who joined Stampy’s videos was simply a fan of the then popular real Sparkelz, naming his account after him.
"Hellooo, this is Stampyy. And welcome to another M i nec raft lets-p lay videooo. And another video inside of Stampyyy's-aa-Lovelyy Worlddd." Such memories
Dude this was the first time hearing about what lionmaker did. And I'm honestly shocked, I thought that stampy and him just grew apart, but to hear this. This man had cool.maps and hungergame maps almost at the ready for stampy.
" you were all so young " hit me so hard i had to pause the video from my sobbing ,,, but no seriously him only getting 10 months is absolutely insaneeeee to me and genuinely terrifying ????
Back then when the L for Lee problem as well as lion maker was at large, the fact stampy shielded us from that was the best thing back then! I still give my full respect because of that I’m 19 now and looking back I am so glad he did that we were so young Thank you for many years and bringing joy to millions of children around the world again and again With that I salute you Stampy🫡
I never grew up with stampy but... THE FACT sqaishy says " you were all so young" gives me a weird feeling, like it's sadness and nostalgia and mixed with a feeling like i have missed and lost something great
now knowing Lionmaker is Belgian (I am Belgian too) I feel deeply disgusted by him. I saw him join and leave the series, but always found him the weirdest helper ever, feeling that through a screen on my ps vita, is just fracked up. Sadly pedophilia is increasing A LOT in Belgium (general crime across all boards has skyrocketed since 2015). PLEASE NOTE: I am !!!NOT!!! defending ANY pedophile in the following statement, the following statement is meant as a !!warning!! to the future generation and current generation. The most common reason here in Belgium is that Belgian girls do tend to lie about their age because of their looks. In Belgium you have girls saying they're 16 because they look like it, while in reality they're just 12 or 13 year olds. I myself had a girlfriend that said she was 16, while in reality she was 14. At the time I was about to turn 17. I instantly shut down that relationship because it's a too big age difference for me. I'm glad I did break up because she mentally drained me in a bad way
Belgian here, also didn't know he's from our country. And yeah, the lying about age thing is a big issue here, I know multiple people who had sex with someone who looked old enough and claimed to be old enough, who then ended up being like 14.
Crime hasn't gone up as significantly as you think. Media reporting and coverage thereof has -- you merely feel like crime is on the rise. It bequeaths itself to "law and order" policies resulting in retrenchment of civil liberties in the name of security. Be mindful of this.
Fair enough. I am in the UK but I had a bf in the states who said he was 16 and at the time so was I. We only really texted but he eventually told me he was fourteen when we started and turned 15 when I was 17. That made me feel really gross so I stopped talking to him.
I really wanna missed the old Minecraft videos with Stampy's Helpers I've been watching for 12 years ago. Stampy is always a good man and we will miss him so much.
What’s funny, is that every time I point this out, everyone says I’m insane and emotionally biased. These people are either predators themselves, or had to cover for one, or are ignorant and fail to see the wickedness in pedophillia.
That is something I’m interested in. Does the real HTT know they’re a character now? did they give permission to continue to be included like this during the series? So many questions…
Lionmaker actually invited me to play with him in a hunger games match. My cousin was there at the time and I got a random invite to join, soo I did. I absolutely demolished all of them and knowing what’s happened since makes it that much better.
This is the first time I heard of what happened with Lee Bear. I loved the videos he and squid did with Stampy. With Squid it was Building Time I loved the most. When Lee "wrote" to Stampy to say he was leaving, I actually cried (I was 10) and hearing what happened, shocks me more than I could imagine. I'm so happy I grew up watching Stampy and seeing him protect an entire generation from Lee was probably so hard for him to do without letting any of us know what actually happened. My upmost respect always for Stampy! Amazing Video!!! Good job😊
As a child when I first started playing Minecraft when it came to the 360 back in 2012 I grew up on channels like Stampy, DanTDM, and PopularMMOs it hurts my badly to see stuff like this happen seeing some of my favorite characters growing up like Lee turn out to be this disgusting it hurts my heart but I'm glad I had a somewhat good childhood because of channels like Stampy helping me cope with certain bad events that happened in my life
@@AutumnThe_Toaster i grew up watching Dantdm and PopularMMO's too as well LDshadowlady??? SkyDoesMinecraft (oh how the mighty have fallen) Aphmau PrestonPlayz Woofle's the pack basically umm..... Stampy OFC
Crazy thing, I had a school project where the topic was, "your favorite person." I didn't know who to do it on so I chose my favorite TH-camr at the time, which was Lionmaker. I had no clue the kind of guy he was, but I did find out 2 years later. Can't believe it..
Lionmaker was an adult when that event happened. Lee was ~16 years old. He still did an awful and heinous act, but I feel like we should cut him some slack in terms of harshness. I hope that he realizes that he hurt a lot of people and caused so much pain but I also hope he is doing better. I hope that everyone who has been hurt by him is also doing better. Mistakes are a lot easier to make when you’re that young.
The fact of L for Lee and everything that happened with him, is just insane, seeing how much of the series he was a part of... Also what happened with Hit the Target? I mean technically not a helper per say, but still a character of the world?
I think the original guy quit gaming at some point and possibly let Stampy use his account / character, in which one of Stampy's other supporting cast (usually Squaishey apparently) would control that account
He been watching stampy since i discovered TH-cam about 13 years ago, im now 19 and remember the the videos like they were yesterday Who would’ve known that the guy making our childhoods, was secretly keeping stuff from us so we could enjoy the videos despite the situations, respect to u stampy
damn i didnt even finnish the vid but im also 19 and the absolute nostalgia while watching reminds me of the xbox 360 days lol. everything great always comes to an end
I knew about Lee but lionmaker.. that is just disturbing. It’s sad to hear this stuff because I thought that besides Lee they just all left and went on with there own lives. Hopefully those 2 never come back.
L for Leeee 100% played his final character. He signed his book. Keep in mind he was only around 14 at the time of those two pranks he pulled. Younger than both victims
I remember in the last weeks before Lee left, the description mentioned him not being played by the actual Lee for a while. Looked back at some of those videos and that part is gone
@@MoonlarkSpirits L for lee is one of the few cases I can forgive him a tad bit. Teens do all sorts of bad things. And many in the Minecraft community have done wayyyy worse.
Yeah hopefully Lee grew after that. Like I keep saying it’s way way better then the crap that Mini Ladd or Kiwiis pulled did (Inabber and Tehnemi covered both of them)
I didn't know about any of that, Stampy did an amazing job at shielding us from that. Lee was my favorite character so the news was quite weird to hear but the truth does matter. Thanks for making the video for us.
Let’s be thankful that stampys lovely world ended with a happy ending It’s sad to see it go but at least stampy didn’t end up like most modern Minecraft youtubers
As a 16 year old i had a breakdown watching this I had watched stamps for years and his videos (esp stampies lovely world) has always put a smile on my face and helped me get through rough times seeing what happened with L for lee really hit me considering he was loved by the community for stampies lovely world but I’m sickened by what he did I just can’t help but wonder why did it have to end and why did they have to do such disgusting things I feel bad for stampy cause he was a close friend to spampy I know A nobody like me shouldn’t says this and probaly won’t get have an impact but I hope y’all all have a good fay
K so i feel like finball may have been dashed over just a teeny bit But, the dude (from what I can tell) still checks his comments About 2 years ago I commented on his last live stream asking if he was alive and all he commented was "barley...." I can only hope that he's happier now and is living a good life
To be honest I never watched any of these people but they spread Joy throughout the game community to be honest if all of them come back one more time to do one more video together I would watch it except for those people that did the bad things
I was looking for a certain helper who appeared a few times. It was Shoot2kill the person who made the massive cruise ship and toured stampy. Stampy and squid also nick named shoot2kill as daisy the cow
To anyone wondering; Ash Didn't own his channel he was contracted it as part of a group and when he left said group he breached the contract and was removed from the channel which was later assigned to drew, he had a video on it but I believe he was forced to take it down because it was gone days after it was posted probably due to an NDA unknown to Ash, Either way he makes content nowdays at his own rate and whatever he wants to make which is a lot better considering just a few years ago he attempted suicide but one of his discord members managed to get an ambulance to his house before he passed
This was peak of young youtube era !!! all this time… it be the ones closest to you man. Im so glad I found this out as an adult now.. my kid heart would have not processed that💔 Thanks stampy and squishy for doing the right thing. 💜
Not sure if you have seen this, but lee has responded to squaisheys comment basically trying to defend himself while being very aggressive. very strange of him.
Now that I see this, I realize there were a lot of helpers that I missed considering I belive I started watching around stampy’s 130th episode or something like that back when I was a huge Stampy fan. I need some catching up to do this summer
Lionmaker is by far the most heartbreaking to me. I watched his videos way more than stampy’s and knew lots of people who enjoyed his videos as well. I didn’t even know what was happening when it was happening. I want to feel sorry for him but I’m not sure how
@@WolfRoseQUEEN Lol I just noticed this. Yeah, I wish I could link but most links get auto filtered so you’ll just have to google it. Martyn married Stampy’s sister, Netty. They have 2 kids. Super cute.
Back when L for Lee was the main helper I was really enjoying the series. I was really upset when the character left but when I found out the truth I had a lot of respect for the way the situation was handled. Especially since 12 year old me shouldn't hear that info at the time. Stampy raised a generation and he has nothing but my gratitude for that.
I remember watching like hide and seek Minecraft videos with Lion Maker, Paige the Panda and a couple more TH-camrs when I was young and I remember people being like “Lion and Paige, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G” I never knew she was underage oh my god

It really sucks that lion maker turned out to be a horrible person as I fondly remember watching his hide and seek Minecraft videos.
The fact he only served 10 months is disgusting
Fr
Me too, he was my favorite for a while because his hide and seek videos were so funny in my eyes. I was pretty young though, like 12-13, and when I heard a small bit of the accusations against him I was shocked that someone would accuse such a nice person. Then his channel just disappeared one day, and after failing to find it, I went on to watch other Minecraft TH-camrs who I actually liked more. Years later I learned the truth and was shocked, and realized that all my fondness for lionmaker might have been a result of his manipulation in videos, endearing himself to us. Looking back now it’s still hard to fathom. The TH-camrs I went on to watch are all off in different walks of life, yet I still watch their old videos as a source of comfort. Not lionmaker though.
Oh was just thinking the same thing, his hide and seek videos were amazing, so sad he had to do what he did
I can't believe lee became like that.. It's truly sickening since lee is the only helper I can remember. Childhood destroyed, truly.
Ngl I thought cuz jus started his own world the twin
Good thing back when I first watched Minecraft TH-cam videos back in 2014, I never watched the Lovely World. Instead, I was mainly into PopularMMOs TNT and Mod Showcase videos, Orepros, ExplodingTNT, and DanTDM.
Unfortunately, Pat, the guy behind PopularMMOs, was involved in an incident in Jacksonville that landed him in jail.

One thing I find rather lovely about this is that all the lovely helpers (bar the two who shall not be named) ended up nicely as the shots from their recent posts on social media show them with families or just having lives after TH-cam and even a few stayed and made followings of their own which kind of shows how much time has pasted and how stampy has been such a long time influence on peoples lives as the people he played with at the start have all since changed some are no longer friends with him some are and just it kind of just shows that life goes on idk it feels so wholesome compared to how some other series or groups end and even those who are no longer friends with him ended nicely and no drama (bar the two who shall not be named)
I'm still so happy that specifically Squid is doing really well, considering him and Stampy have always been seen as a duo. It sucks that they don't do much together anymore but it's so nice to see that they're both really happy.

@@commiedog425ok but.. who cares
I miss the old helpers, every single one of them even if they appeared in a hundred or 2 episodes. They felt more real, more human than William Beaver or Fizzy Elephant who you could tell were paid actors. Theres always something about the in game names that stuck, "L for Lee", "BreadStix", "Liamardo39", you just know there's a actual person behind that mask. But i understand why he phased the actual helpers out, you ultimately cant control people but you can control characters
My faves were squid, chocho, longbow
Here’s a little story, I watched Stampy since he first started back in the day. I have grown up for so many episodes all the way to 400. One day during the lead to 450 we had a big life crisis and lost Internet for a long while so I cried because his series was what got me through my childhood and taught me the meaning of teamwork and friendship…
But to come back to it, I have never watched Stampy again since episode 600…
And to come back to see what Some of these people have done, makes me regret growing up to know these people by watching their content along Stampy.. I’m just glad that Stampy cared about his audience, put matters first and dealt with them amazingly well.
I just wish it could’ve been better for some around him. But to this day even without some of his helpers, I wouldn’t be where I am today. He is the reason why I have friends.
Lmao, I’d watch stamps every time I visited my grandma. I only saw some of the iconic (or most memorable) episodes. I only saw the final conclusion back last year. And damn. It’s fucked to think that even outside all of this, some folks just let us down.
Never once did I even think that Squaishey had a real name, lmao. I don't know why I never considered that Squaishey wouldn't be legally called Squaishey. Like I knew everyone else had "normal" names but consider my mind blown hearing about Kye!
Lmao same
LOL
I don’t think someone would legally name their child Sqaishey😂😂😂😂
I always knew sqaishey's real name to be Bethany, even I was surprised to see Kye as the name. Sqaishey changed her name to Kye sometime back.
@@PTUBE101_Someone got legally named methamphetamine rocks, I think sqaishy is on the table
@@PTUBE101_ TO BE FAIR, there are some wild names out there so I would never put it past some rabid parents to name their child anything...
The lion maker thing was so crazy, I was a child during this era, and back in 2014, I almost met him through the build team I was apart of
I grew up watching Stampy, so while this was a welcome blast from the past, I was genuinely sad by the end. It felt like watching your heroes reveal that they were actually terrible people, and tricked you into feeling otherwise. I know that's really not what happened ( Stampy is a king for putting up with this btw ) but it still really hurt
Hold on you forgot someone important...
Hit The Target was a helper super early on, presumably a real person. What happened to him?
From the stamplongnose wiki, “Hit the Target was originally a real person, but at some point that person stopped playing Minecraft and "Hit the Target" became a character used as the main antagonist of the Stampy's Lovely World series. This article mainly talks about the character.”
Knowing Sqaishey had to substitute for lee at times, the same would be assumed for Hit the Target, So either Sqaishey played hit the target in episodes, or one of the other helpers did.
@@H-nt yes that's more than likely the case. In fact a few years ago he accidentally uploaded an uncut video which showed that Squashy is probably at least one of the characters in most episodes.
She probably did play him it would only make sense cuz😂
I believe he stopped playing minecraft and quit the series but allowed Stampy to continue using the character. HTT rarely had a voice role and if he did, it was either played by a bot, Stampy, or Squaishy herself. That being said, it's likely HHT was played by a bot after a while since HTT did not have any voice lines everything he did was conveyed by his actions, not words.
9:50 one of the most underrated Minecraft TH-camrs of the golden era. His chemistry with Squid and Stampy in there crazy craft series was awesome.
Probably the most detailed video about the helpers, was really curious as to what happened to them
thank you for talking abt people who've i havent thought or seen abt for YEARS, awesome vid :D
Bit of a correction for Captain Sparkelz, he wasn’t exactly the real guy. This person who joined Stampy’s videos was simply a fan of the then popular real Sparkelz, naming his account after him.
💀 yeah that is what everyone was thinking
Choo choo sounds so genuine wow haven't seen such an honest youtuber in a hot damn minute
Dantdm...?
"Hellooo, this is Stampyy. And welcome to another M i nec raft lets-p lay videooo. And another video inside of Stampyyy's-aa-Lovelyy Worlddd." Such memories
I may go back and watch one of his videos just tk hear him say that one more time for nostalgia
Dude this was the first time hearing about what lionmaker did. And I'm honestly shocked, I thought that stampy and him just grew apart, but to hear this. This man had cool.maps and hungergame maps almost at the ready for stampy.
It’s so cool learning the names behind the characters and nicknames
L for lee was my favourite in stampys. I was always so excited to watch and I was crying when he left, and now, I’ve learned the truth.
Bro lionmakers videos were part of my childhood. I loved his hide n seek videos. It was a definite punch in the gut to find out who he really was.
I remember all these! This video is good and it's nice to see that some helpers are still active today
" you were all so young " hit me so hard i had to pause the video from my sobbing ,,, but no seriously him only getting 10 months is absolutely insaneeeee to me and genuinely terrifying ????
Definitely hit hard
Maybe Craig became a mailman for a well-known blue-haired guy... 🤔😅

Amy Lee has moved on to be an editor for one of my favorite TH-camrs she seems to enjoy her job and I’m happy for her
Which youtuber?
Yeah which one?
Which?

Bro this vid was beautiful and nostalgic 😂 and the ending was badass😭
Back then when the L for Lee problem as well as lion maker was at large, the fact stampy shielded us from that was the best thing back then! I still give my full respect because of that I’m 19 now and looking back I am so glad he did that we were so young
Thank you for many years and bringing joy to millions of children around the world again and again
With that I salute you Stampy🫡
I never grew up with stampy but... THE FACT sqaishy says " you were all so young" gives me a weird feeling, like it's sadness and nostalgia and mixed with a feeling like i have missed and lost something great
now knowing Lionmaker is Belgian (I am Belgian too) I feel deeply disgusted by him. I saw him join and leave the series, but always found him the weirdest helper ever, feeling that through a screen on my ps vita, is just fracked up.
Sadly pedophilia is increasing A LOT in Belgium (general crime across all boards has skyrocketed since 2015). PLEASE NOTE: I am !!!NOT!!! defending ANY pedophile in the following statement, the following statement is meant as a !!warning!! to the future generation and current generation.
The most common reason here in Belgium is that Belgian girls do tend to lie about their age because of their looks. In Belgium you have girls saying they're 16 because they look like it, while in reality they're just 12 or 13 year olds. I myself had a girlfriend that said she was 16, while in reality she was 14. At the time I was about to turn 17. I instantly shut down that relationship because it's a too big age difference for me. I'm glad I did break up because she mentally drained me in a bad way
Many girls do that, it is a problem that is WORLDWIDE (Pretending they are older but are not that old)
Belgian here, also didn't know he's from our country. And yeah, the lying about age thing is a big issue here, I know multiple people who had sex with someone who looked old enough and claimed to be old enough, who then ended up being like 14.
@@GPXBrent for the record: Holland is just as bad in this case
Crime hasn't gone up as significantly as you think. Media reporting and coverage thereof has -- you merely feel like crime is on the rise. It bequeaths itself to "law and order" policies resulting in retrenchment of civil liberties in the name of security. Be mindful of this.
Fair enough. I am in the UK but I had a bf in the states who said he was 16 and at the time so was I. We only really texted but he eventually told me he was fourteen when we started and turned 15 when I was 17. That made me feel really gross so I stopped talking to him.
I really wanna missed the old Minecraft videos with Stampy's Helpers I've been watching for 12 years ago. Stampy is always a good man and we will miss him so much.
Honestly, thank you for making this answered so many of my childhood wonders 😅
The most shocking part about this video is that lionmaker only got 10 months in jail, like surely CP and r*pe should be way longer
What’s funny, is that every time I point this out, everyone says I’m insane and emotionally biased. These people are either predators themselves, or had to cover for one, or are ignorant and fail to see the wickedness in pedophillia.
@@ContentEnjoyer-gm3ky yikes they need help for sure 10 months is WAYY to generous
Why’d we never talk about the real HitTheTarget? I want to know where the original went.
That is something I’m interested in. Does the real HTT know they’re a character now? did they give permission to continue to be included like this during the series? So many questions…
all i know is they lost interest and there was an agreement ish to continue them as a character in the story
The one you're thinking about was replaced after the original's voice actor got caught having sex with a goat.
@@FreeRobux712 huh???
He has a channel called HauntedPurpose
Lionmaker actually invited me to play with him in a hunger games match. My cousin was there at the time and I got a random invite to join, soo I did. I absolutely demolished all of them and knowing what’s happened since makes it that much better.
“You were all so young during this time, it didn’t feel right” you know what? Fair enough, fair enough
This is the first time I heard of what happened with Lee Bear. I loved the videos he and squid did with Stampy. With Squid it was Building Time I loved the most. When Lee "wrote" to Stampy to say he was leaving, I actually cried (I was 10) and hearing what happened, shocks me more than I could imagine. I'm so happy I grew up watching Stampy and seeing him protect an entire generation from Lee was probably so hard for him to do without letting any of us know what actually happened. My upmost respect always for Stampy!
Amazing Video!!! Good job😊
The Lee situation is what really sucks because he was pretty much my most favorite helper. It's truly disgusting of what he did.
It's crazy to think that 5 days ago would've been officially 12 years since Stampy's lovely world started
there is always a new documentary on stampy every few years and im still gonna keep watching all of them
As a child when I first started playing Minecraft when it came to the 360 back in 2012 I grew up on channels like Stampy, DanTDM, and PopularMMOs it hurts my badly to see stuff like this happen seeing some of my favorite characters growing up like Lee turn out to be this disgusting it hurts my heart but I'm glad I had a somewhat good childhood because of channels like Stampy helping me cope with certain bad events that happened in my life

Crazy thing, I had a school project where the topic was, "your favorite person." I didn't know who to do it on so I chose my favorite TH-camr at the time, which was Lionmaker. I had no clue the kind of guy he was, but I did find out 2 years later. Can't believe it..
Lionmaker was an adult when that event happened. Lee was ~16 years old. He still did an awful and heinous act, but I feel like we should cut him some slack in terms of harshness. I hope that he realizes that he hurt a lot of people and caused so much pain but I also hope he is doing better. I hope that everyone who has been hurt by him is also doing better. Mistakes are a lot easier to make when you’re that young.
Is their confirm sources by officials?
The allegations of L for Lee were never confirmed and were most likely a hoax
At 16 years old, you should know not to stalk, harass, and ejaculate on the things that other people own.
Yeah, atleast Lee had a smaller moral compass and has time and motivation to change
Nahhh no slack it creepy and 16 Ur not a child u know what is right or wrong
The fact of L for Lee and everything that happened with him, is just insane, seeing how much of the series he was a part of...
Also what happened with Hit the Target? I mean technically not a helper per say, but still a character of the world?
I think the original guy quit gaming at some point and possibly let Stampy use his account / character, in which one of Stampy's other supporting cast (usually Squaishey apparently) would control that account
He been watching stampy since i discovered TH-cam about 13 years ago, im now 19 and remember the the videos like they were yesterday
Who would’ve known that the guy making our childhoods, was secretly keeping stuff from us so we could enjoy the videos despite the situations, respect to u stampy
damn i didnt even finnish the vid but im also 19 and the absolute nostalgia while watching reminds me of the xbox 360 days lol. everything great always comes to an end
I knew about Lee but lionmaker.. that is just disturbing. It’s sad to hear this stuff because I thought that besides Lee they just all left and went on with there own lives. Hopefully those 2 never come back.
I'm glad SB737 Was able to keep going. Got his on channel now.
L for Leeee 100% played his final character. He signed his book.
Keep in mind he was only around 14 at the time of those two pranks he pulled. Younger than both victims
Young Teens do pull a ton of crap. Why? Well, it's because they are teens.
I remember in the last weeks before Lee left, the description mentioned him not being played by the actual Lee for a while. Looked back at some of those videos and that part is gone
@@ThisChannelIsAbandoned300 I do agree. Teenagers... they/we do stupid things. But we grow and mature eventually (hopefully)
@@MoonlarkSpirits L for lee is one of the few cases I can forgive him a tad bit. Teens do all sorts of bad things. And many in the Minecraft community have done wayyyy worse.
Yeah hopefully Lee grew after that. Like I keep saying it’s way way better then the crap that Mini Ladd or Kiwiis pulled did (Inabber and Tehnemi covered both of them)
I didn't know about any of that, Stampy did an amazing job at shielding us from that. Lee was my favorite character so the news was quite weird to hear but the truth does matter. Thanks for making the video for us.
This brings back so many memories, I am actually dumbfounded by how much I didn't know.
lionmaker is back THE WORLD IS DOOMED
wait what
Nice can't wait to see how this goes. 🍿
Uh-oh
I’ve never heard of this Stampy person, but Minecraft creator history is always interesting
stamps and a lot of his helpers shape my childhood so I’m very grateful that stampy made videos and did what he did
I love the almost identical editing style to SunnyV2 even the music and sound effects are almost identical
Let’s be thankful that stampys lovely world ended with a happy ending
It’s sad to see it go but at least stampy didn’t end up like most modern Minecraft youtubers
True
For all it is Worth it I am relived that only 2 of the Helpers turn out to be Bad People and not more of Them
As a 16 year old i had a breakdown watching this I had watched stamps for years and his videos (esp stampies lovely world) has always put a smile on my face and helped me get through rough times seeing what happened with L for lee really hit me considering he was loved by the community for stampies lovely world but I’m sickened by what he did I just can’t help but wonder why did it have to end and why did they have to do such disgusting things I feel bad for stampy cause he was a close friend to spampy I know A nobody like me shouldn’t says this and probaly won’t get have an impact but I hope y’all all have a good fay

But, the dude (from what I can tell) still checks his comments

When I was a kid I really loved Finball’s videos with his wife and son
Really hope he’s doing well now
This is a thoroughly entertaining and informative video, especially as an og to the lovely world (been watching since around episode 71 I believe)
A lot of research and work behind this video good work
Stampys lovely world has ended now 😭 a legendary series will be remembered
To be honest I never watched any of these people but they spread Joy throughout the game community to be honest if all of them come back one more time to do one more video together I would watch it except for those people that did the bad things
Only 10 months of jail for cp and rape is actually insane. He deserves to be in jail for life.
I was looking for a certain helper who appeared a few times. It was Shoot2kill the person who made the massive cruise ship and toured stampy.
Stampy and squid also nick named shoot2kill as daisy the cow

Wait what I thought this video would have like a 100k views! Good stuff keep up the work 😎
I use to love to watch loinmaker as a kid, i loved the hide and seek videos. Its such ashame what he has done.
To anyone wondering; Ash Didn't own his channel he was contracted it as part of a group and when he left said group he breached the contract and was removed from the channel which was later assigned to drew, he had a video on it but I believe he was forced to take it down because it was gone days after it was posted probably due to an NDA unknown to Ash, Either way he makes content nowdays at his own rate and whatever he wants to make which is a lot better considering just a few years ago he attempted suicide but one of his discord members managed to get an ambulance to his house before he passed
This was peak of young youtube era !!!
all this time… it be the ones closest to you man.
Im so glad I found this out as an adult now.. my kid heart would have not processed that💔
Thanks stampy and squishy for doing the right thing. 💜
Not sure if you have seen this, but lee has responded to squaisheys comment basically trying to defend himself while being very aggressive. very strange of him.
Can you tell me where exactly? I am intrigued
Stampy will forever be known as a legend to all who grew up watching his videos 🧡
atleast l4lee had the respect to choose to leave stampy's world to avoid bringing anything onto stampy
very high good quality video and good editing dude!
Now that I see this, I realize there were a lot of helpers that I missed considering I belive I started watching around stampy’s 130th episode or something like that back when I was a huge Stampy fan. I need some catching up to do this summer
Lionmaker is by far the most heartbreaking to me. I watched his videos way more than stampy’s and knew lots of people who enjoyed his videos as well. I didn’t even know what was happening when it was happening. I want to feel sorry for him but I’m not sure how

I was really upset when the character left but when I found out the truth I had a lot of respect for the way the situation was handled. Especially since 12 year old me shouldn't hear that info at the time. Stampy raised a generation and he has nothing but my gratitude for that.
I remember watching like hide and seek Minecraft videos with Lion Maker, Paige the Panda and a couple more TH-camrs when I was young and I remember people being like “Lion and Paige, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G” I never knew she was underage oh my god
