Why has no one made a post about PirateSoftware roaching?!

Introduction

This (on the right) is PirateSoftware

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1736790474P2ztUSgPP_Z_rg.webp

He's otherwise known as Jason Thor Hall - or more importantly - as Maldavius Figtree, his online Fursona when he played Second Life.

He rose to fame by (ab)using YouTube Shorts. In these he shares his outlandish knowledge on a plethora of topics ranging from computer science (hacking), running a ferret rescue operations to working at blizzard. In fact, he will mention at least one of the topics within 10 seconds. He's also a game developer and a streamer. The sad reality - he has no clue about anything. People tend to believe his words as he appears wise and smart and stuff. His KiwiFarms Thread has 160 pages of people rightfully hating and collecting his r-slurred statements. He's god's gift to mankind - and he'll make sure you think so too.


Drama

He's also a self-proclaimed "top-tier" World of Warcraft player with years of experience and an actual history of working at Blizzard - and then wimped out on his hardcore (permadeath) streamer guild OnlyFangs, getting multiple others killed as he ran away from a very survivable encounter. To clarify, various streamers are currently running a hardcore classic world of warcraft guild called OnlyFangs. The point of hardcore is that you only have one life, if you die at any point of the game, you have to re-level which may take at least 120 hours. So unlike regular classic which is piss-easy baby mode, dying is a big deal. That's why you need to trust your teammates in a dungeon or raid, as your in-game life depends on them NOT fricking up. Pirate did frick up. In fact, he fricked up so bad that the entire streaming world sans his paid shill buddy Asmongold is pooping on him. Rightfully so. Not only did he frick up, he also refused to acknowledge even a modicum of accountability, and instead iteratively double triple or quadruple downs on his original statements. The entire /r/LivestreamFail subreddit is full of threads pooping on him and it's genuinely the most endearing thing I've ever seen. Not even universally hated child male feminists are as despised. Never mess with !g*mers:

I won't go into more detail here because most of these threads are just hating for the sake of hating or other known streamers giving their extremely valuable opinion but

this is the original thread that started all of it - containing the now infamous clip.

Does he deserve the death penalty&&

I don't know about the WoW stuff but I hate this guy and other similar clickbait codecel streamers, it's always a waste of time to watch them you learn nothing new.

There's a minute portion of codetubers who are actually good. I like Jonathan Blow streams even if he's a bit of a cringe hardass and Sebastian Lague is a Eurostrag but I really enjoyed his chess shit. There are a few Kaggle grandmasters who stream and they're great as well.

Almost everyone else is worthless. YouTube keeps pushing people like Theo on me but all he does is read blogs in 6x the time it takes for me to do it myself, it's so boring.

I think he's even worse than the average codecel streamer. When you look at his code, it's just obvious he knows jack shit about programming and he's just bullpooping to his naive audience. Learning from him might actually make you worse at coding.

I only saw a few videos before I just asked YouTube to hide him so I don't know that much.

Granted I'm very senior so the content I like is very niche because it's stuff I haven't really encountered before in my career

Hes just a normal slop entertainer and doesnt really code much at all. Which is why he is popular.
