Off Topic Discussion

no worries, the platform this forum runs on is notorious for abusive flagging issues, you can just edit your OG post and it will be re-instated.

I only follow one CC, BadKarma, the other is DEFYN strictly for early jet reviews otherwise I couldn’t care less, his voice annoys me and his sense of humor is the sort you’d find in a discord call on a squadron discord. That’s it, I usually don’t watch videos related to video games, they’re all largely boring and quaint.
As for the whole parasocial relationship people develop for youtubers and the likes, I never, ever understood that, it’s bizarre to me. Same goes for youtuber discord servers or whatever, ew.

Yeah he definitely puts on the kind of show the average 16 year old is looking for.

Every time he recycles the same “going so straight twitter would cancel him” joke for the 100th time I die a little bit inside.

Especially considering what Twitter is now, renders that “joke” stupid… But yes it’s the immature references and the crude low brow “humor” that gets ridiculous.

yeah.

I want a dry and flat review, period. Trim the fat imo.

Might I suggest “Tim’s Variety?” He does straightforward aircraft reviews, including some real world history. And without the cringe.

For example:

thats how i feel when I see a video where a cc can just stay at 1500-2000m in the F-15A and just get away with it

This whole channel is basically this, but to be fair he’s also a monster at the game (and it’s genuinely informative without jokes/quips, personally I cut volume.)

Somewhat cool shot from biting off more than I can chew.

DEFYN’s brilliant response to someone asking why he’s on a known cheater’s channel, actual child.

Honestly, I noticed it’s been getting worse. Way more political than back in the day. A frustrathing thing, but I guess not unexpected given millitary/WW2 enthusiasm tends to attract such.

It kinda made me nope out hard, all the same.

… It’s generally a curse with WT CCs. Another CC I enjoy watching opened their discord to new people. Joined. Did a ctr+f for certain keywords, checked some conversations. Noped out after realizing people like me are highly unwelcome.

Oh an Il2. There’s a tutorial maker I used to recommend. I got randomly recommended the guy’s squadron/clan recruitment video and… “I guess there’s a reason this guy mains german fighters beyond the fact they’ve got cool cockpits and easy handling.”

This one in particular is “Hilarious.”

… if anything, you get harrassed and sent threats for daring be open about who you are while trying to signal-boost your lab’s papers.

I know exactly what you mean hah, someone’s egg has been cracked ;)

As for discord servers, I avoid them like the plague, especially Defyn’s server which has a “Brown” role and people making fun of you “for being brown”, was promptly booted when I inquired what that role meant and wether he knew how bad it looked from a normal person’s pov, but he’s dutch and that country love to defend lovely things like blackface so whatever.

And yeah youtubers in general tend to be massive reactionary goobers, what a fun world, eh?

Yeah. Honestly that’s all I can say when I read this. Just… “yeah”’ in a flat tone
