Quote from: RPGPundit;1116741It surprises me how even some very popular youtube channels do that and yet people keep watching (I'm looking at Tim Pool as the biggest of guilty parties here: that dude makes wonderful points in the first 1-2 minutes of his video, and then just keeps repeating that same point over and over again for the next 18 minutes).

Tim Pool (and Pundit really) aren't videos that you watch intently. You put them on in the car while you're driving to work or in the kitchen while you do the dishes. They are effectively a replacement for things like talk radio. Something to have on in the background.

But the reality of it is that Youtube's algorithm rewards certain types of videos. A 2-3 minute video that gets right to the point will be buried.

I won't disagree that my videos are something you can think of as radio. Though I hope a better kind of talk radio than the stuff Tim Pool puts out. Anyways, given that I have zero production values and the video part of my video has almost no action (except if one of my cats jumps into the shot), my videos can totally just be listened to while you're doing something else.

Here's the charity being discussed: it's Heifer International
https://www.heifer.org/

Charity Navigator gave it 3 stars with 84% rating which is good.

RPGPundit, the next time some SJWS clowns cry there isn't a "Person of Color" present at one of these livestream events, you need to offer your assistance to attend as the token minority to ensure the virtue of the table! And if they turn you down, they're racist!

That's a very amusing idea!  But I hate livestream gaming...

So instead of providing evidence, we get all sorts of reasons for not doing so.

Now where have I seen that before?

Quote from: RPGPundit;1117655My videos are not "longer than they need to be", they're exactly as long as it takes me to say everything I have to say about a topic without repeating myself.

#OKBoomer.

Quote from: RPGPundit;1117655As for backing up my 'claims', you can:
a) take my word for it

You mean #ListenAndBelieve?

Quote from: RPGPundit;1117655b) Follow me on twitter, where the drama happens

Or you could provide the context in your videos just like every other #YouTuber, not least because people lock their social media and delete #Tweets.

Quote from: RPGPundit;1117655c) look up the name of the charity I mentioned and the context of the D&D event I mentioned and the guests involved which I also mentioned and find all the confirmation

I did, and found nothing supporting your claims.

Your turn.

Quote from: RPGPundit;1117655d) go fuck yourself.

At least you can take criticism like an adult.

Quote from: SHARK;1117660As far as claiming that your videos are "longer than they need to be"--that's an easy solution to that problem--don't watch them.

So don't consume media one's critical of?

Now where have I heard that before?

Quote from: SHARK;1117660What's the implication of "failing to provide any evidence to back up the claims made"?

Spreading harmful propaganda.

Quote from: SHARK;1117660If you got together with some friends down at the bar and grill, sitting around smoking and talking politics, gaming, and assorted issues of the day, and looked at your friends and said, "Well, what is your evidence to back up these claims?" I can't imagine that being received well.

Well joke's on you because my friends and I hold each other accountable. And our relationships are stronger for it.

Quote from: SHARK;1117660In my mind it would seem obnoxious, pedantic, and even rude.

The irony here is breathtaking.

Quote from: SHARK;1117660Based on your relationship, prior history of knowing them, and so on, there's a level of genuine trust in your friend's accuracy and consistency.

You mean #ListenAndBelieve?

Quote from: SHARK;1117660The insinuation is also acidic.

You mean like accusing someone of Attacking a D&D Charity Livestream for Starving Babies?

Quote from: SHARK;1117660If a person's faith in the basic merits and outlines of what Pundit is engaged in discussing is so low, it begs the question--why is someone like that listening to your video to begin with?

Same reason I listen to his ideological opponents: To see if the the basic outlines of what's being engaged with have merit.

Quote from: SHARK;1117660Certainly, some level of sourcing and attribution, where appropriate, is welcome, but it certainly isn't necessary or even desirable to somehow "footnote" or source every aspect of your commentary and discussion.

It is when making accusations like this.

Quote from: SHARK;1117660It makes me wonder why anyone that is hostile, dismissive, and skeptical would have the slightest interest in listening to your program, Pundit.

Because turns out #SJWs are just as bad when it comes to providing evidence, lie about folks like RPGPundit on a regular basis, and their friends take them at their word.

Seeing the problem yet?

Quote from: RPGPundit;1117824I won't disagree that my videos are something you can think of as radio. Though I hope a better kind of talk radio than the stuff Tim Pool puts out.

That's quite the claim so I'll ask: Better how?

d) go fuck yourself.

tried this, instructions unclear, got tentacle caught in rotary fan. 4/10 bad advice would not recommend.

The difference is I don't lie.

And I found an example in literally thirty seconds of googling. So the liar is you.

Here's one explicitly demanding that SJW gamers of color be hired or else this charity is alt-right or something.

And another.

Just in case, here's another. And another.
And another.

So, the question becomes, why is Annon Adderlan lying? What is his deep motive for hating Pundit?

All these people that hate Pundit seem, deep down, to be swarmy, lying fucks.

I can always tell when someone seems to have a legitimate disagreement with Pundit on something or other. Then there's the screeching, sniveling, ideological rodents that just hate Pundit because of ideological reasons.

There's some people who hate me for ideological reasons. There's some people who hate me just because I'm successful and well-known in the hobby in spite of all their ill-wishes. There's some people who hate me because I showed them up in a discussion once. There's people who just hate me because I'm an asshole (an asshole who's right and successful in the hobby).

I hate you for your humility! And your excellent slow drip coffee!

And although hiring people based on skin color is actually illegal, reply to all these fine Twitter posts offering your services! I can only imagine how joyously they will receive you! As a stunning and brave Latinx, you can rescue them from their dilemma of whiteness.

Just charge double, as reparations.

near as i can tell from googling most of them hate you because their twatteredit circlejerks told them too because you drink water and hitler also drank water ergo you must have space aids which is racist against oppresed pygmysexual goblins that have been colonized by enormous white penises of oppression or something, i mean, the details are fuzzy because its just paragraphs of soy dripping whining that reads in a nasally limp wristed voice, BUT the important thing is holy god in heaven wtf happened to D&D between when i quit giving a shit in 3e until now, motherfucking tranny tieflings and rape clerics...reditwatter is a damn asylum and i guess im a bad guy for thinking it should be burned to the ground along with everyones feelings.

everybody assblasted cuz feelings and im over here like:

Yup, that's true too, for those who casually hate me.

Stand strong, Pundit! Never back down, never give up, and never retreat! Bring the fire, and hammer them everytime!

MAKE GAMING GREAT AGAIN!:D

Keep up the good work, Pundit!

Thanks!
