I'm pretty sure this situation is becoming quite close to last resort, as some just can't handle it anymore.
Yes mostly an intervention is held by FRIENDS and FAMILY, but the reason for this is because they are the MOST AFFECTED by the person. In this case it is the community.
/Usually you dont reply to rep comments I know, but this guy constantly bad reps stupid things and I just cant stay silent about it anymore.. It's really annoying
actually in the entire time I've been on this forum I think this is the only thread I've ever neg repped in. I don't even like repping at all. I neg repped in this thread to somewhat balance the circlejerk rep being thrown around. "hey man great job calling a guy a tool..." "oh man that was real clever how you spent like 2 paragraphs explaining that calling him a tool is OK and constructive" The post where he was called a tool gets 10 +reps while actual constructive posts get 2... ridiculous.
Anyway, who am I to say anything against the bias in this thread. I mean if the guy whom this thread is directed at hasn't even replied to any of you why should I bother? (Also thats kind of a big thing in itself isn't it). I suppose it's because I see injustice and don't like it. I'm not the kind to bend my morals for popularity and I never will be. This thread is wrong. If I saw some guy copping punches in the street for next to no reason I'd step in there too...
All the people "constructively criticising" Benji in this thread need to ask themselves why the hell they have the right. As far as I'm concerned he's dedicated a lot of time and effort into his fans/viewers and he obviously does what he does because he enjoys it. I'm not in any way saying criticism isn't a good tool for learning, but this thread is an absolute mockery when it comes to constructive criticism.
Benji is a caster, not a punching bag. Don't like his casting don't watch it. This whole thread is a joke and why it exists is beyond me. Have the balls to say your shit in private without the circlejerk rep... If you're not in a position to talk to him in a 1 on 1 basis than why the hell are you criticising him? Because you watch his stream? Don't ******* watch it.
Bring on the neg rep, I really don't care. I see a guy being abused by a bunch of "Bullies" (god I hate that word so much but it's the best for this situation) and I don't like it.
For the record some of the posts in this thread WERE constructive. This response is in no way directed towards the authors of those posts.
