promoting gambling nap in the Zed and
Dylan Rigby what’s up guys welcome to
gambling in FIFA that is right guys
there’s a site called galaxy comm listen

no matter who tells you differently
gambling is not a good habit Craig
Douglas aka Neff and the zed or an FN 2z
I honestly don’t care and his business
partner Dylan Rigby seemed to have
forgotten that life lesson when they
promoted a FIFA gambling ring called
foote galaxy the site had no age
restrictions allowing minors to place
bets on in-game events with the in-game
currency as payout one notable victim of
this scandal was a 14 year old boy who
lost over five hundred and eighty six
pounds which equates to over 700 US
dollars
Douglas and Rigby ended up receiving a
massive fine of 265 thousand pounds
which is just over 350 US dollars
oops if I can show you some examples on
the screen I will there’s no bets up
right now but they have real-world bets
where you can use your coins in fifa to
bet on real-world outcome of footballing
events and renewing the lawsuit from
digital homicide Jim sterling a journey
of a game critic sued for 10
million dollars and the game developer
that did it that actually did it some
people just can’t handle being
criticized after he reviewed the
slaughtering grounds YouTube’s greatest
showmen found himself in a two-year feud
with James and Robert Romine the
brothers who had developed the game as
digital homicide the brothers became so
enraged that they eventually found a
lawsuit against sterling in March of
2016
however the lawsuit was filed with
ridiculous claims that the Romines were
trying to pass off as liable slander and
assault the case was dismissed with
prejudice in February of 2017 and
Sterling soon uploaded a video that went
into the case in great detail who hid
yours truly with a lawsuit for 10
million dollars for talking about his
shit-shit games number 8 dream daddy
drama game grumps and pony plays not
only do I know that the game itself is
existing just for the sake of
exploitation and preying on current
mindsets not everyone was thrilled about
dream daddy the first game released
under the game grumps brand friends of
the grumps ding dong and Julian of Oni
plays expressed disappointment stating
that the game felt like it was
exploiting the LGBT community in order
to make money the criticisms actually
weren’t aimed at the grumps but the
development team that the grumps have
supported game grumps member Brian West
would indirectly acknowledge these
remarks on Twitter with member zuzibe
aho dismissing their alleged status as
beta testers dream daddy may have been a
resounding success but it seems like Oni
plays and game grumps won’t be
collaborating again as both channels are
no longer subscribed to each other like
I said everything I’ve seen from it I
can be number seven failure to disclose
machinima
[Music]
[Applause]
guys in a world where almost everyone is
financially supported by advertisements
and marketing it is important to
disclose if your ad is a paid
endorsement the FTC has been really
cracking down on catching violations and
it started to show when the current
generation of consoles began in early
2014 multi-channel network machinima was
caught endorsing the Xbox one without
disclosing the fact that these
endorsements were part of a paid
promotional deal this story would exist
to form nothing but headlines as neither
Microsoft nor machinima suffered any
consequences and not even any fines
number six sexual assault allegations
Toby Turner aka 2-buss kiyose a person I
dated a few years ago has just made some
extremely serious false accusations
about me in April of 2016
Toby Turner found himself under several
accusations made in a tumblr post by
ex-girlfriend April Fletcher claiming
that Turner had drugged and raped her
Turner responded in a video shortly
after stating that the allegations were
false when another of Turner’s exes
Jacqueline Glenn defended him things got
weird as he sent her unwanted emails
which eventually prompted her to
threaten her restraining order against
him because of all of this he lost his
voice role as ant-man in the Marvel
Avengers Academy mobile game and his
book deal for a young adult novel was
dropped in June of 2018 two years after
the allegations were made turner
uploaded a video explaining his side of
the story and she asked that she sleep
in the bed with me I said ok and then
she asked me to cuddle her and we
cuddled and nothing else happened
number 5 rumors of pedophilia – reverse
um I didn’t expect to freaking get this
big and I didn’t expect like my past did
everything if you weren’t aware of his
work Brandon Asher better known as
basher verse is a popular youtuber
amongst the Minecraft community
particularly with younger audiences when
he tried to join a group with
skydoesminecraft in early 2015
a background check showed that he had
inappropriately
message to miner when he was 18 although
he’d tried explaining the situation to
his fans
the infamous keemstar quickly called him
a liar which prompted many people to
start labeling Asher as a pedophile this
was enough for him to upload a mental
breakdown video stating he’s quitting
YouTube however he soon started
uploading again and the scandal died
down after some thorough explanations
why would they send Klara with me if
they thought I was a weird psycho
pedophile or something number 4
misinformed politics jontron the main
question on everyone’s mind is all is he
a racist is he a Nazi simple answer and
this whatever one wants I mean you know
no I treat every single person with the
same respect they afforded me
in January of 2017 John Jafari aka
jontron came under fire after making
some controversial remarks about racism
and immigration the backlash grew worse
after debating with twitch streamer
destiny about his viewpoints in March of
2017 some of his comments involved
concern over white people becoming a
minority and his claims were often
flawed or caused the conversation to
derail into other subjects whether you
agreed with his views or not this would
result in him losing a voice-over role
he had in ukelele and he would no longer
be an active member for normal boots in
November of 2017 jafari would go on a
podcast with h3h3 admitting that he was
ill-prepared while also discrediting
himself by saying I’m just a comedian
I’d prefer to take a step back now
return to doing comedy it’s what I do
better anyway number three
drop in the n-bomb PewDiePie well in
jeez oh my god you would think for
someone as famous as he is PewDiePie
would learn to watch what he says
especially when many of his fans are
children although Puetz had been in some
hot water before the whole fibre thing
that cost him his show and got him
dropped by Disney but this might have
been an even dumber unforced error while
playing player run owns battlegrounds on
a public live stream PewDiePie became
frustrated with an enemy player and
dropped the N bomb in front of millions
of viewers
he later uploaded an apology video
saying that it was a heat-of-the-moment
thing and there was no excuse for it hey
man it happens I mean not to me cuz I’m
not racist but whatever I’m just an
idiot but that doesn’t make what I said
or how I said it okay it was not okay
number 2 a sexual predator in Minecraft
lionmaker oh oh what’s this

Wilton aka lionmaker was a
well-established minecraft youtuber with
a young fan base of over 600,000
subscribers in June of 2015
Wilton had Skyped with a 12 year old
girl asking him to send nude photos

time of the messages a few months later

Trevor Martin and Thomas Cassell claimed
that they were approached by a Counter
Strike global Offensive skin gambling
site named csgo lotto in order to
promote it to their audience when they
were discovered to actually be the
site’s owners Martin would desperately
try to spin the controversy which
obviously failed the FTC would take
action against them both but the results
mounted to basically nothing in
September of 2017 the two reached an
agreement with the FTC that they would
be more transparent and never do it
again
