Path of Exile drama continues as sponsored streamer gets his game account permabanned after calling the CEO a "brain dead bald frick". Streamer denies, but someone saved the video.

Video of him calling out the CEO:

The PoE community is infamous for its epic spergouts every three months when a new expansion league drops (pizzashill plays this game, just to give you an idea) but this one is beyond anything I've ever seen before. The entire sub has been seething non-stop for a week now, and the devs (Grinding Gear Games, better known as GGG) are pumping out patch after patch trying to appease the mob. But it's not good enough. One streamer (PathofMathh) had enough and thought it was a good idea to call the CEO Chris Wilson a "r-slurred bald frick" in his stream's chat, and also on video. He also said allegedly said that he should "go play with his fricking MTG cards" (the CEO is rich and has a very expensive MTG card collection).

I'm pretty sure this guy was sponsored by GGG to play and promote the game. Now that his game account is banned it's pretty much over for him. Most other streamers of this game seem to despise this guy because he tends to seethe too much even by PoE standards.

One of the biggest streamers in PoE who goes by the name Quin69 (a favorite among zoomers) responded with this video:

In the meantime the CEO is still trying to put out the fire regarding the new expansion with yet another personal post (the third one I believe) doubling down on the companies' unpopular views regarding the direction of the game. Naturally it gets downvoted into oblivion:
