actually i think the one thing i really do wanna say about michael and jack’s comments today other than how well handled i thought they were is that i’m honestly pleasantly surprised at the company’s commitment to go back to edit and delete rh-centric content. like they said, he’s been working there for almost a DECADE, and that entire time they’ve been putting out multiple videos a week, many of which had him in there. this is especially true of the early days stuff where there were fewer members to rotate out in content. this man is deeply embedded in roosterteeth and especially achievement hunter, and has definitely been a part of most of their most popular videos, and they’re taking the time to remove him as fully as possible, views and popularity be damned.Â
honestly i didn’t expect that just because of the sheer volume of videos they’re going to have to sort through to do that. i don’t even think i would’ve been mad if they’d said that they were keeping the content up and just moving forward. actually i think one of my millions of vent posts about this mentioned that at some point, that there would be no way for them to do exactly this. but they are, at great personal and likely financial cost, and i respect the hell out of them for it.
#haywoodgate#i mean he's been one of the main 6 for as long as i've been watching#even a little longer than that#and they're going to cut him out of that history as much as possible#it's honestly amazing and i'm tentatively hopeful to see how they follow through#i decided already that i'm gonna keep the same level of support for rt#i think they handled this situation as well as they could have#and rh certainly wasn't the only reason i was watching their stuff#given that my level of engagement nowadays is just watching vids that interest me#mostly just minecraft and gta with a few playps and such sprinkled in#and extra life#like i'm not watching every vid any more which i definitely did for a time in college#i think i'll stick with that#ofc this is barring any more major wack shit like this#bc the thing is. i do not think it's rt's fault that he did this#they gave him the platform but he's the one who abused it#and that's nobody's fault but his
