In this video, "The Real Problem" section is everything. The Smash community loves fixating on all of the unimportant details and then trying to figure out which public stance they can take for the most clout, but no one pauses to consider the root cause. I'd imagine a large reason for this is they'd rather put minors and community members at risk than part with their vices. This is a cultural problem 100%.
It’s cause the Smash community is mostly a bunch of socially awkward nerds. They lack any social or critical thinking skills and basically live and breathe Smash. They’re the epitome of gamer nerds in a basement,
It's pretty ridiculous as to whenever someone in the community proposes an alcohol ban within the venue for major tournaments, it always gets pushback because the alcohol is "part of the culture".
I'm 1000% in line with this. I feel like the vibe is "we want everyone to have a great time because this is a safe place where we are all respectful and nothing can go wrong :)" and then something OBVIOUSLY goes wrong and then they're like "this is shocking and horrible, how could this disgusting behavior have occurred??" and put the entire onus on the perpetrator. It's literally the Eric Andre shooting Hannibal meme. It's absurd. Everyone is ALL about being accommodating and respecting other people's boundaries until it results in them having to be sacrificial in the interests of someone else's well being.
Well done on providing a balanced viewpoint on this video and talking to everyone involved without trying to make anyone look better than each other, or making anyone look stupid for engagement. It hurts to see outside people's opinions on the smash community being full of predators when it's my full time job, and I can only imagine how much trauma it causes for the victims. There really needs to be a standard set for no minors without a guardian's supervision. Again, really appreciated the overall takeaway of this one. Fix the problem at it's core, because new, vulnerable and flawed people will come into a badly set up system and always be hurt.
Kinda sad that apparently, minors cannot be part of the smash community without supervision due to all the shit that happened. Its also sad that there's so much needless drama. Some years ago, I was interested in fully joining the smash community, entering tournaments etc but I ran as fast as I could when I realised how shitty it all was
>thinly veiled anti ZeRo shade You probably didn't like hearing this the first time from Tech but it isn't about letting ZeRo back, again, it's the opposite. You ass pirates never beat ZeRo, if you played a game that took any skill or that anyone good gave a shit about then the fact he is gone for good (a decision I agree with) would be a tragedy to you more than him. But maybe you can finally at least rival him by doing what he did. Fucking move on from the kids + smash = ??? equation just like he did. I do not want to supervise my kids at a Smash event or have them anywhere near one, ever asked us what we think? Just supervise your kid in a place where he'd get his boo t whole Ralph aged if you weren't there, 4head!! Sounds wholesome, one for the photo albums. Smash isn't oxygen, they don't need it to be happy. You need them at events to be happy because the publicity increases your paycheck, that's a you problem. I'll just play something else with them or buy them a Steam game they want. Peak 1st world problems, huh. Tech might even erase this comment or jump on me for it since I'm really not being polite, I'd get that, but I just want you to know Tech to me at least doesn't seem like the sort to be tamed and turn into a docile fool who'll nod in agreement with the rest of you gimr flavoured losers and ZeRo IS his friend, and it seems that'll be the case indefinitely. This whole 'I don't like your usual videos but this time you've been a good boy so here's a cookie!' tone is not going to change anything he does, I'm 99.99% sure of it. But I want you to know how ugly I thought it looked You will never be as cool as ZeRo to me and you look about five times more fake and creepy btw
Re-watching this and I am fucking dying of laughter at the fact that the intro contains Esam talking about how he said a bunch of slurs even though that has nothing to do with the video at ALL LMAOOOO
Twitters response to not even watching the video and shitting on WaDi just because you specifically went out of your way to present the facts is why the Smash community will never mature or have anything of value.
Remember when the Smash community would try to rally against Technicals? And yet I can’t see them ever doing even half of this investigative work and offering solid rationale about anything. Homerun video once again. Well done.
@@synnamon_toast_crunchwasn’t just a minor, wasn’t Puppeh 14 and she was 24 and they had sex and other weird shit? That’s next level weird. None of us are perfect and make some dumb ass mistakes, but that’s just too much
@@synnamon_toast_crunchI said “wasn’t just” as in on top of being 14, she was also a decade older-similar to Promelia and Squerk. Hope that helps with clarity
I only hope the best for WaDi going forward. Thanks for this video to allow him to speak. Its nice to hear from him and I sincerely hope all his future endeavors work out and he gets the healing he needs as well. The twitter smash community is actually vile so its nice to hear that he didnt even indulge them by reading any of their shit after.
halfway through the video and this is insanely well made. It feels like not one second goes without me learning something new about this situation instead of what i had learnt from twitter. Keep up the great stuff!
Super late seeing this video, but I actually know Juno and this is on par for her. She's tried dumb shit like that before, and is generally an opportunistic person above anything else. She's manipulated people for things she wants/needs, even tried to with me. Awesome video man, always appreciate seeing how thorough you are and it's nice to see some of this brought to light.
I don't know her but literally everything about her behavior screams "cluster B." She didn't want to give him head because she didn't love him, but she managed to manipulate him into a relationship anyway and predictably vilified him once he developed the good sense to reject her.
Congratulations on 100k. I remember watching your channel when it had like 2k subscribers. Happy to see the current numbers are more in line with the quality and value I see from your content.
You’re the only commentary or commentary-adjacent channel (whatever you want you call it) that isn’t completely low effort and terrible. Very well balanced and thoroughly researched takes. Great job. While I love the Smash stuff I think your greatest arcs are still ahead of you.
The "smash community" often has things like this happen because fans of that game have a tendency to be awkward, geeky, loners. Those types of people, try as they might, have no idea how to properly behave in society. So when given the opportunity to connect with others in a close and/or intimate way, they will almost certainly eff it up royally. To you normal, well adjusted folks out there, things like how to treat people you care about, when and how to speak on sexual topics, and how to avoid compromising entanglements with minors, seems like a bunch of very easy things to do. But trust me, never underestimate how socially inept are smash players, yugioh players, or any other fans of geeky, made for kids franchises. Theres no malice in most of these instances. Nothing dangerous or predatory. Not usually anyway. Its mostly ignorance, stupidity, immaturity, or some extreme combination of the three. But that wont stop the other half of the smash community from burning them at the stake. The half that are drama queens, clout chasers, and generally spitefull assholes. Trouble is even tho these might be the true worst part of the community, the people they attack are hard to defend because the things they do/are accused of doing are in truth, very dumb. So its easier to throw your hands up and resolve to watch the whole enterprise destroy itself.
A lot of this behavior is social ineptness while socializing with other socially inept people at locals as their main form of socializing. So yeah, I can see some of the weird behavior as inexperience and loneliness
Close enough, the higher than average loner density extends beyond smash into almost all videogaming spaces. I don't know why smash would be disproportionately effected by that, what I could see is the community being on the younger end as far as gaming communities of fighting game communities go. Maybe a year younger on average, obviously very counterproductive in situations like these that need as much adult handling as possible.
Congrats on 100k my dude. I may not be an OG, but I've been here for a couple of years reguardless staying back and watching as you dismantle each and everyone of these unfortunately, congnitively deficient individuals.
This is something I said when TK Breezy made his video on the WaDi situation: " that WaDi needs to come out of substancial evidence of his innocence, and my question is: Is there substantial evidence of his guilt? A Twitlonger is nothing. it's a Text someone sat down and wrote. and the phone screenshots also aren't conclusive. I'm not out here saying he's innocent, but this "Guilty until proven innocent" mentality has to stop. SPECIALLY when it comes to serious accusations like pedophilia. If someone does this kind of thing, and you can prove it, you don't go to twitter, you go to the authorities. If you're not willing to pursue this literal criminal accusation and are content with just ruining your target's livelyhood/reputation, I'm gonna find it very fishy. That's the issue I have with the part at: 12:27 TK, you say "Bro, do you need a video of making out for you to believe?" and... YES! if Squerk is making this serious of an accusation, the onus to produce IRREFUTABLE evidence is on him. It's not mental gymnastics at all. The phone screen shots is something easy to fake, you can save any random number on your phone with the name "Wadi" and send messages back and forth. The mentality of "Believe all Victims" is a very stupid one. It puts the person who was accused in a position where they now have to prove a negative. Whether he did it or not, this is not a good way to do things." And *whadayaknow,* I was 100% right. it's ZERO wonder (pun not intended), There was no crime here, all that happened was a guy that made poor decisions in his love life, and he got completely destroyed in the court of public opinion for absolutely no good reason.
Im glad youve done the work to uncover this situation, people’s public image can ruin their lives, and you do work to make sure that its as accurate as possible
eeeeeeeeeeehhhhhh.. WaDi def did something worse here he is still the bad guy here Juno is just a dummy who is making the bad stuff bigger which is def stupid
You're still running with that without having any way of knowing what happened. It's just a he-said she-said. If he is the one lying about the assault then obviously is in the wrong and did something worse. If she's lying about sexual assault then she definitely did something worse@@bareq99
Youre a goat man. Hate to hear when people call Coffeezilla the only real journalist left. Its probably because Coffeezilla isn't treated like a troll for exposing debauchery. Your grind is admirable brother, congrats on 100k you def deserve it man. Ban Nairo
i don't have any particularly strong feelings on WaDi either way, but i'm still not over TK Breezy saying "the age of consent is arbitrary" in response to the Juno thing, i think that might be my new favorite Normal One to come out of smashers since "Adult Hunting" lol
it's in reference to Captain Zack going after older dudes in the community and how some people used that term to defend what happened with Nairo (although it's confirmed that Zack went after a lot of older dudes in the community so he's definitely an adult hunter)
If I'm not mistaken I thought TK Breezy just said it's arbitrary in the sense that society just picks an age and we all agree it's acceptable. Like there's not necessarily a clear biological reason why consent isn't slightly less or slightly more than 18, we just chose that number because it's also the arbitrary number we chose for adulthood. Either way that number should be respected though. Maybe TK Breezy said something else though, idk. Just think people can hear he said "age of consent is arbitrary" and think he meant it doesn't matter, when I believe he clearly does think it matters
Thank you for the info. Use to watch WaDi all the time and just completely forgot about him when he all of a sudden disappeared. Had no idea this was the situation he was in. Hope he gets the help he needs.
Already listened to the video last night, but I caught the intro on a replay and had to say: holy _hell,_ that's a nice intro! Like, there's more effort put into that minute and twelve seconds than some hour-long videos I've seen. Even the parts you skip of the pages are fully scripted (minus the Pentagon part oop); the Gimr quote dig was on-screen for five whole frames and still got a chuckle out of me. _Mad_ props to Editor Tech!
The quality and effort you put in these videos is sick. Keep up the good work man. This shit matters, regardless of whatever scene it is. Justice is key and putting all the information out is so important. Thanks for the hard work.
Hearing all these names thrown around is so crazy only because i’m in WaDi’s region, like hearing names like Juno clique after I literally talked to them in person a couple weeks ago is crazy.
I aint gonna lie. Juno dating and moving in with Wadi was stoopid on her part. Even after saying “im not that into him” and “seeing his red flags”. Like what did she think would happen?
Great video, I really like how much effort you put into these research vids because of the "mostly" unbiased standpoint, and it allows me to take in the most knowledge possible. You really make me remember sometimes, that no one is perfect, and sometimes people can overlook the bad things when there is enough good to cover it up.
I had wondered where WaDi had been for quite some time now, as he was one of my favorite Smash content creators for a while. This popped up on my recommended and I'm glad I took the time to watch it. It saddens me greatly to hear all the things that happened to each of these people. I think it's fair to say that no one was in the right here and I hope each of them can move on with their lives without a lot of resentment or trauma in their lives.
29:03 Agreed. I have no idea how kids are able to drive or outright fly to these long distance events, and stay with adults they only know through the competitive scene without involvement from their parents. A responsible adult wouldn't allow that, if only because you're setting yourself up to catch a case or have false allegations leveed against you. Obviously, the minors only hold so much responsibility (they're kids after all), and I don't want to victim blame or anything, but still. Who thought this was ever a good idea?
Really great video. So happy that you reached 100k subs, if anyone deserves that it is definitely you. Every video of yours has a lot of work put into it and helps give me important insight into things and let people actually make informed opinions instead of taking shit at face value and mobbing up. Thanks for all that you do Technicals, love all your content!
Thanks for giving an update on Wadi. I've tried to look him up a few times since all this stuff happened and couldn't find anything. My reading at the time was people airing their dirty laundry and personal business. Ya, some of the stuff was less than ideal, but Wadi never seemed like an evil or dangerous person. It's sad how quickly an internet mob forms an unwavering opinion. People (maybe it's a vocal minority) seem so quick to turn on someone (or an org, like panda) and cancel them. There's no room to be nuanced, but few situations are cut and dry.
The lesson is this: If you have beef with someone and you think they did something illegal, tell the justice system. Don't make a twitlonger to try to round up a mob of people to punish someone for you. Mob justice is not justice. If the justice system (which has been refined over hundreds of years) fails to punish someone after looking at all the evidence, how is a mob of random assholes going to do a better job without also destroying innocent people in the process? I can only conclude that it's not justice that you are after, but the thrill of execution.
Rally high quality video. I follow the smash scene a lot competitively but not this type of drama stuff and this video does a great job of catching me up
CONGRATULATIONS ON 100K! That joke abt it on the conclusion got me laughing😂 as usual your content is clear, concise, easily digestible, and above all else; fair. Love how youre unbiased and upfront about considering things from all sides and willing to do the extra digging to support any evidence/lack thereof. Good stuff as always man
Really ironic Squerk saying "f*ck the Smash community" like he wasn't cancerous himself, dude was threatening to physically assault minors before he got banned temporarily lol
Glad you're able to present the facts in a digestible manner. More people need to be this analytical before jumping to immediate outrage just to be on the "right" side. All of these people made some pretty terrible mistakes.
@jannomeeuwessen4886 did you not watch the whole video? Technicals made a joke bc Virginia's law says up to a year in jail and or 2500$fine. But also like all states if its your first offense you usually get a slap on the wrist.
Hooray! A new video from favorite to content creator that makes videos about a community I'm not involved with, surrounding a game that I have never played!
Imo the whole juno wadi thing was something that didnt need to be aired out on the internet and just seemed like a personal problem rather than the witch hunt it was made oout to be. I was much more concerned about the squerk one because the original age gap was 15 not 17 so thank you a lot for clearing that up. Tho i still believe that u should not be dating people under 18 if u are 20+ but I am glad that it was concentual. I will say after all the info has been laid out and both parties have said what they needed to say I think a year or maybe even 2 would be a fitting punishment for this. Also wanted to say i am glad that the people involved were willing to speak and not leave things to hearsay and interpretation. Good shit as always

Both VGBC's account deactivating because of a birth date error and this video are, indeed, a blessing
Sounds like Juno and WaDi both made bad decisions. This is why you don't make mistakes with unstable people. They will try to ruin you afterwards.
eeeeeeeeeeehhhhhh.. WaDi def did something worse here
he is still the bad guy here
Juno is just a dummy who is making the bad stuff bigger which is def stupid
You're still running with that without having any way of knowing what happened. It's just a he-said she-said. If he is the one lying about the assault then obviously is in the wrong and did something worse. If she's lying about sexual assault then she definitely did something worse@@bareq99
@@bareq99dawg did not watch the video
@@connorself I definitely did
WaDi is still the bad guy here (specially a shit boyfriend, but thankfully not in an abusive way)
@@bareq99 oh Word yeah, i thought you meant in like BAD guy not like “bro can’t keep a girl”
Youre a goat man. Hate to hear when people call Coffeezilla the only real journalist left. Its probably because Coffeezilla isn't treated like a troll for exposing debauchery. Your grind is admirable brother, congrats on 100k you def deserve it man.
Ban Nairo
It's even better when you know that Coffeezilla's robot is dubbed by Tech 😂
@@mds_main I actually never realized that but I def hear it now that I know. I cant believe I didnt realize that sooner.
@@nJudas
Yeah it's even confirmed in Coffee's videos descriptions. Really cool.
i don't have any particularly strong feelings on WaDi either way, but i'm still not over TK Breezy saying "the age of consent is arbitrary" in response to the Juno thing, i think that might be my new favorite Normal One to come out of smashers since "Adult Hunting" lol
Tk breezy is a woke leftist loser. My younger sibling could probably beat him in a debate and a fist fight
Could you clue me in on "Adult Hunting"?
I haven't heard that before.
it's in reference to Captain Zack going after older dudes in the community and how some people used that term to defend what happened with Nairo (although it's confirmed that Zack went after a lot of older dudes in the community so he's definitely an adult hunter)
If I'm not mistaken I thought TK Breezy just said it's arbitrary in the sense that society just picks an age and we all agree it's acceptable. Like there's not necessarily a clear biological reason why consent isn't slightly less or slightly more than 18, we just chose that number because it's also the arbitrary number we chose for adulthood. Either way that number should be respected though.
Maybe TK Breezy said something else though, idk. Just think people can hear he said "age of consent is arbitrary" and think he meant it doesn't matter, when I believe he clearly does think it matters
@@thecapitalisticdictator2256I agree with you
Editing getting crazy good, keep going Tech.
Thank you for the info. Use to watch WaDi all the time and just completely forgot about him when he all of a sudden disappeared. Had no idea this was the situation he was in. Hope he gets the help he needs.
Geez pretty soon you'll have gone through the entire 2020 allegations list. Thank you TH-camr with 100k subs , excellent video
At this rate, that list won't be finished till 2025
The smash commmunity is making sure it's providing as much content for technicals as possible, sadly
Been waiting for this one my Richter, this is sure to be another banger
Already listened to the video last night, but I caught the intro on a replay and had to say: holy _hell,_ that's a nice intro! Like, there's more effort put into that minute and twelve seconds than some hour-long videos I've seen.
Even the parts you skip of the pages are fully scripted (minus the Pentagon part oop); the Gimr quote dig was on-screen for five whole frames and still got a chuckle out of me. _Mad_ props to Editor Tech!
The quality and effort you put in these videos is sick. Keep up the good work man. This shit matters, regardless of whatever scene it is. Justice is key and putting all the information out is so important. Thanks for the hard work.
Hearing all these names thrown around is so crazy only because i’m in WaDi’s region, like hearing names like Juno clique after I literally talked to them in person a couple weeks ago is crazy.
I aint gonna lie. Juno dating and moving in with Wadi was stoopid on her part. Even after saying “im not that into him” and “seeing his red flags”. Like what did she think would happen?
@@meyeneetuks4680juno was lying fr, wanted to be a part of his life for clout
finally hittin 100k. deserved brotha. big ups.
Great video, I really like how much effort you put into these research vids because of the "mostly" unbiased standpoint, and it allows me to take in the most knowledge possible. You really make me remember sometimes, that no one is perfect, and sometimes people can overlook the bad things when there is enough good to cover it up.
I had wondered where WaDi had been for quite some time now, as he was one of my favorite Smash content creators for a while. This popped up on my recommended and I'm glad I took the time to watch it. It saddens me greatly to hear all the things that happened to each of these people. I think it's fair to say that no one was in the right here and I hope each of them can move on with their lives without a lot of resentment or trauma in their lives.
29:03 Agreed. I have no idea how kids are able to drive or outright fly to these long distance events, and stay with adults they only know through the competitive scene without involvement from their parents. A responsible adult wouldn't allow that, if only because you're setting yourself up to catch a case or have false allegations leveed against you. Obviously, the minors only hold so much responsibility (they're kids after all), and I don't want to victim blame or anything, but still. Who thought this was ever a good idea?
How many responsible adults have you met in your life? I used to think I had met a lot, but as I get older I feel the opposite
Very often, adults are just like children but they need to pay bills lmao
At this rate the might as well have a parent or gaurdian accompany in these events, wait why haven't they've been doing that 🙄
CONGRATS ON 100K BROTHER!!!
Really great video. So happy that you reached 100k subs, if anyone deserves that it is definitely you. Every video of yours has a lot of work put into it and helps give me important insight into things and let people actually make informed opinions instead of taking shit at face value and mobbing up. Thanks for all that you do Technicals, love all your content!
100K HYPE! deserved for so long, congrats!
Coffee and Tech releasing a vid on the same day. Double dose of tech! Great stuff
I'm glad I got to hear wadi side finally thanks for giving him a platform to speak his side on tech he wouldn't be able to do this on Twitter or X now
Another amazing video, Tech! Thank you for all your efforts! You always find the facts 💖
Aye, congrats on the 100k! And dope video as always, keep up the great work!
Thanks for giving an update on Wadi. I've tried to look him up a few times since all this stuff happened and couldn't find anything.
My reading at the time was people airing their dirty laundry and personal business. Ya, some of the stuff was less than ideal, but Wadi never seemed like an evil or dangerous person.
It's sad how quickly an internet mob forms an unwavering opinion. People (maybe it's a vocal minority) seem so quick to turn on someone (or an org, like panda) and cancel them. There's no room to be nuanced, but few situations are cut and dry.
I don’t even care about smash anymore but I still will pull up for a technicals vid…This dude is relentless and mad entertaining. Journalism energy.
Another Detective Tech video! And congrats on 100K Subscribers, bro!
Congrats on 100k not sure when that happened, I must've missed it
The lesson is this: If you have beef with someone and you think they did something illegal, tell the justice system. Don't make a twitlonger to try to round up a mob of people to punish someone for you. Mob justice is not justice. If the justice system (which has been refined over hundreds of years) fails to punish someone after looking at all the evidence, how is a mob of random assholes going to do a better job without also destroying innocent people in the process?
I can only conclude that it's not justice that you are after, but the thrill of execution.
Technicals a actual good research commentary channel
Proud of you tech, huge 100k. Always the best quality videos
There we go another Technicals video. I love your breakdowns of allegations and so on. Please keep up the great work!
Wadi was one of my favorite content creators, he always came across as a really genuine guy. I hope things change and he can return, his fans miss him
this man is UNABLE to miss, insane
Rally high quality video. I follow the smash scene a lot competitively but not this type of drama stuff and this video does a great job of catching me up
another amazing video, also congrats on the 100k
CONGRATULATIONS ON 100K! That joke abt it on the conclusion got me laughing😂 as usual your content is clear, concise, easily digestible, and above all else; fair. Love how youre unbiased and upfront about considering things from all sides and willing to do the extra digging to support any evidence/lack thereof. Good stuff as always man
Congrats on 100k!
Great video Tech. Your content never misses. Keep up the good work man!
Great video, also congrats on the 100k subs! You deserve it!
Really ironic Squerk saying "f*ck the Smash community" like he wasn't cancerous himself, dude was threatening to physically assault minors before he got banned temporarily lol
Congrats on the 100K Aniki
Technicals always coming out with bangers
Congrats on 100k dude
I can't wait to see how Nicholas The Oreo boils this down to "you're attacking zaptie!"
Finally now i can have an opinion on this topic!
Damn this video was great quality-wise and it was super entertaining too, great job with this :)
A new Technicals video? :O
Also, congratulations on the100k subscribers.
*that closing sentence from wadi was actually sad tbh, bro sounded defeated af whether he was in the right or wrong. I'll miss his content*
Dated a tranny kid. He was in the wrong
Here hoping there will be a boxing ring clip in this video. Esam in the opening is a good look!
Yo tech congrats on 100k you deserve it
Congrats on the 100k subs tech, huge fan of the videos!
Techs back to awaken the smash community
Congratulations on that milestone
Ty dean 🙈
Could you guys imagine what the smash scene would look like without this guy? I think it’s hilarious he’s even hear in the first place
Great vid man. Thank you for everything you do! ❤
Grats on 100k bro
100k congrats bruh
Glad you're able to present the facts in a digestible manner.
More people need to be this analytical before jumping to immediate outrage just to be on the "right" side.
All of these people made some pretty terrible mistakes.
Another great video Tech! I love your content, congrats on 100k subs!
Thank you for this video, it helps me understand the situation so much more
Congrats on 100k btw, you deserve it.
id love for wadi to come back to making videos. funny dude, its never the same after this shit happens
Only after a 1 year band and $2,500 given directly to Technicals.
No thanks
@@SmashingPichuI dont understand that. Why to Technicals? Is he some kind of judge who gets to decide the punishment and receive the fine money?
@@SmashingPichu lmaooo
@jannomeeuwessen4886 did you not watch the whole video? Technicals made a joke bc Virginia's law says up to a year in jail and or 2500$fine. But also like all states if its your first offense you usually get a slap on the wrist.
WE FINDING WALDO WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hooray! A new video from favorite to content creator that makes videos about a community I'm not involved with, surrounding a game that I have never played!
This 100K special is fire!!! 🔥 🔥
Imo the whole juno wadi thing was something that didnt need to be aired out on the internet and just seemed like a personal problem rather than the witch hunt it was made oout to be. I was much more concerned about the squerk one because the original age gap was 15 not 17 so thank you a lot for clearing that up. Tho i still believe that u should not be dating people under 18 if u are 20+ but I am glad that it was concentual.
I will say after all the info has been laid out and both parties have said what they needed to say I think a year or maybe even 2 would be a fitting punishment for this. Also wanted to say i am glad that the people involved were willing to speak and not leave things to hearsay and interpretation. Good shit as always
Great video man. Ty for your work
Thank you technicals, im glad you can tell me what to think and give me the right opinion
I'm glad I've always just played smash at home.
