       @randbot @comradepond @graf @eee @Horonelius @GatorTime Indeed, Pond made a whole show on it, and you adopted the habit of pressing the silly-sounds button when getting dings subsequently, to everyone's delight. Sure, most of the piss lands elsewhere, but a few drops get good flight-time when one tries!But you know Pond doesn't generally pass up on a good opportunity to bully you into greater success.

       @comradepond @randbot To be fair, Rand is usually drunk.

       @randbot @graf I don't believe an offer to talk about improving your monetization was a demand to speak about finances publicly or an attempt to embarrass you. It becomes doubly offensive to people to not only have a gift spurned, but spurned publicly. You in turn take offense when people highlight, accidentally or not, that you are not optimizing your revenue potential, despite it being a bitter self-deprecating joke you make frequently.Graf is not only a fan of yours but a man who facilitates a significant portion of your success, and a good guy overall. Just like you too, he has a tendency to over-react and be stubborn about it. Obviously you didn't want to offend him, or continue to offend him, but you're stubbornly autistic and regularly drunk. Not the best combination for making up with people.No streamer is an island. Your success, professionally and otherwise, depends on the goodwill of others like Graf, Pond, and plenty of others. Cultivating those relationships is key to continuing your dream job and advancing your metrics of success. You are incredibly lucky to have the charisma to attract people like them and have them offer their help just out of an appreciation of you. And you have an obligation as a pragmatic professional and, moreso, as a fundamentally good guy to respect them and try to mend things when they go awry.A solution is to try to resolve matters like this privately. Let Pond mediate if she is willing to endure this latest unnecessary conflict, and probably ask her to help if she doesn't volunteer because you off on your own is likely to worsen a situation like this. It's all irritating and probably something you think you shouldn't have to do and dislike nobodies like me mentioning it, but it is good and necessary to practice what is a key skill in the pursuit of improving a critical relationship you have built.

       @randbot Rand, stop sharing these absurd photoshops and post the REAL portraits.

       @randbot @Deplorable_Degenerate @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @GoonPatrol @Heil_Honkler @Orkin_Awk @Terry @comradepond @verita84 @iamthemostnormalhumantrustme Overlord disappointed me immediately. It gets dull fast when the whole premise of the show is, "I'm an overpowered character in a world of scrubs". I found Log Horizon to be much more interesting in that genre.In the second episode the "players" discover they respawn if killed, and are effectively immortal. The whole first arc then contends with the horrible discovery that despite being hungry, no meal tastes good. They do some creative problem solving that explores the "rules" of the world and how to work around them, which becomes a major theme throughout the series.

       @randbot Excellent. The hardest part is maintaining a new habit for the first three weeks. Anchor it with a routine when you are to wake up, even as simple as brushing your teeth and showering, and it'll be easier still. Watch out for temptations for the next several months to deviate from it, even "as a treat", and you'll be naturally craving to go to bed when you should and wake up when you need to.

       @randbot You mean the story you have been fondling about in your mind for several years now? Yes, you should write it. Write a little every day, make reading segments on your show to fill up content, give contests to listeners to submit artwork (AI or otherwise) based on your scenes, and you'll have a story done in no time.Possibly start with a short story in the same vein before tackling your full-on feature. If you need prompt ideas, ask your audience.

       @Kent2 @randbot @wd_5x5 @WhiteJihadJaws Why would he indulge someone clearly annoying him deeply with something that further compromises his family's privacy and safety? What, as if his conscience is weighed upon so heavily by the opinion of "Kent2" online.

       @Kent2 @randbot @wd_5x5 @WhiteJihadJaws Thankfully Kent2 cares so deeply for Rand that he implores him to further expose that destitute family for his own amusement and satisfaction.

       @wd_5x5 @AWIVR @Kent2 @randbot If you people actually care about Rand's success, you wouldn't castigate him in public channels. Plenty of people who actually care send Rand opportunities, advice, and other forms of support in private - like myself. The concern trolling is self-serving for Kiwifarm milksops, not Rand's wellbeing or his show's future success.Actual friendlies choose tacts and approaches that work, that come without self aggrandizement and sneaky forms of sniping and accusation from safe little texting accounts. Rand makes errors and has plenty he can improve on like any other, and like any other will naturally defend himself against public accusations and attempts at humiliation. He has rejected far better people over lesser matters that got inappropruately dragged into the spotlight, whether it was them or himself doing it.It doesn't work. He clearly won't respond to any of these public concern-trolling manipulation attempts with anything but scorn, because to him they're nothing but drama farming bullshit as proven by how insistent Kent2 is to suckle at that tit. And that's exactly what most of this accomplishes, and little else.That's obvious to anyone even slightly outside the autistic spectrum, and it precludes the honestly friendly and intelligent supporters from adopting that tact. But not you sorts. What is it then? Dishonest, or stupid? If neither, realize your tactic here will not get you the positive results you'd like to see in Rand's career and choose a different approach. Namely one not involving public castigations that anyone, Rand included, will naturally dig in their heels about and resist.

       @AWIVR @Kent2 @randbot @wd_5x5 He doesn't lie about my interactions, because I'm not throwing tantrums and dragging things into public out of petty vengeance at him getting defensive. There's hardly a more salty sort than a former lover. I do believe Rand has made mistakes when it comes to his responses to genuine attempts to help from those who, in turn, approached it the wrong way. There's enough responsibility for everyone to accept.Rand has been cutting his show times down to more manageable blocks - that is an indication of him taking private advice. He likewise has become better about attending to dings, a constant struggle with him but something again that he took on board from those navigating the matter properly. Has he further improvements to make? Absolutely. But is he improving? Yes, and his continuing improvements will not come from people trying to attack him publicly.If Rand has actually been drinking lean and pissing in jugs - claims that reek of exaggeration and that I take with a pinch of salt - that would obviously be dangerous behavior. I know full well that DJ Rand moments are not as uncommon an occurrence as they should be, nor do I excuse Rand's bad behavior that damages his enterprise and his relationships. What I do realize, however, is that he doesn't give a damn what I - random internet person - has to say about it in any public context. Same with you people. Rand, like most others with any modicum of internet following, often realize there are followers who just ankle-bite for its own sake, and defensiveness generally results. There are better ways to handle it than how Rand often approaches it, sure, but given the concern-trolling and other bullshit from tantruming imps he's endured over the years, it's understandable why he shuts the gates on randos and parasocials even approaching with what appears like ill intent or bearing unpleasant news. He lets himself lash out similarly to those who don't deserve it, and has created many hardships because of that. But, again, you are no Sven or Graf or whatever, objectively or in his eyes. Neither am I. We will be treated to different standards whether "right" or "wrong", but so it is. Accept it and behave accordingly.All I know of Kent is what his current tactics are, which is textbook concern trolling. I enjoyed NJP but was never the fanboy for them, so your claims that Kent is NJP sycophantic royalty or whatever mean nothing to me. As for yours, I know Rand personally ripped into you after years of your contributions and support - perhaps without a good or full justification - and when you retaliated the both of you just fell further and further into odds with each other. And now you follow him around, denigrating him publicly, etc etc. I wish it wasn't that way, but I have no standing or desire to nanny you on how to best spend your time. And in the end, you admit that you don't believe anyone can help him and you simply want to point and laugh. Indeed, good that you can at least accidentally be honest about your ill intentions towards him. Now anything you had to say about him, whatever merit pieces of it had, will be easily and fully dismissed by Rand. See how pointless that approach all was for you? See how you further affirm Rand's defensiveness against publicly "concerned fans"? It's easier just to blame Rand for why you couldn't reach him, rather than accept that you too failed in several ways out of too great an emotionality or too weak of a strategic constitution. But I suppose Rand will make lemonade from your lemons, so in a way you have helped his show despite your lack of faith - if that makes you feel a bit better!

       @Kent2 @wd_5x5 @AWIVR @randbot He certainly won't listen to *you* people. You swing at shadows - I never said Rand is "effective" or an asset, whatever you mean by that. Clearly he has comedic talent and persistence that is not being realized as fully as it can be at the present moment. He doesn't realize how positively influential and better compensated he can be, if he adopts better business habits. I've said this for years. He knows what his numbers over the past several years indicate. He knows where his difficulties lie more than any internet prattling will be privy to.He would benefit from honest advice, given in its proper context and methods, but that isn't what you are giving. You are trying to milk a lolcow out of clear resentment and frustration. "Tough love" means nothing from someone he sees as nothing but a public twerp trying to get a rise out of him. Rand doesn't answer DM's - one of his bad habits - and he doesn't care much for the opinions of random parasocial internet critters. Rand takes advice from his friends and from those he admires like most people, and guards himself against the others who frequently, like yourself, conduct concern trolling trying to exploit him. Does he friendly-fire on genuine compatriots? Yes, terribly so, and he shouldn't and it has cost him dearly. But that isn't the case with you. You're goading him to expose more of his information and publicly humiliate him just so you can satisfy your frustrations. It's self-serving bullshit.If you actually wanted to improve Rand's career, you would develop a relationship whereby your good intentions could become known to him and in such a manner that he would gradually accept. Throwing a tantrum at him as some nobody is clearly ineffective, but that only applies to someone actually wanting to be helpful to Rand - not a concern troll as your behavior indicates you to be.

       @randbot @HEREWARD_SILVATICI @Terry @JuicyGothMommyFeet @AmericanSpartan @internetfreak To be fair, it is amazing you would remember any of the falling out given you were blackout drunk for most of it. I will always hold precious Cowboy's funny little giggle at dad jokes. His often overly-dismissive contrarianism is what got him at loggerheads with Rand ultimately, but of the Cubic Moreens he and Dingo were and still are my favorites and I would hope Rand and they would all make up and comment together again one day.

       @pingpongchingchong @randbot @HEREWARD_SILVATICI @Terry @JuicyGothMommyFeet @AmericanSpartan @internetfreak Well I appreciate the effort post at least, as an effort-poster myself. The thing about the Cube, whether the official one or the technical Randian phenomena of Cube-formation, is that Rand has little to do with whoever actually becomes a part of it. Since the start Rand has kept a pretty-much open door policy on who pops onto his show. Frankly, it's sort of miraculous that he hasn't gotten more of a shitshow out of it than he has. But Rand opens the door, and various internet vagabonds show up and invite themselves in. The only real selection process going on is whoever feels comfortable enough jabbering in internet-public goes in, and in soft terms whoever actually enjoys Rand enough to show up based on who he is and his comedy. This, invariably, has yielded a crop of loud autists that form the Cube of the season. Autists who are attracted to Rand's show out of autistic-fellowship, and Autists lacking enough self-conscious inhibitions to jabber on in public. Not everyone who has gone into the Cube has been so, but the disproportionate rate leans towards autism. And not all of the autists are as bad as the one guy whose name I cannot remember who would be incredibly retarded all the time (I understand that is being far too general given how many there have been over the years), but there's nothing except Rand's seldom-but-explosive eruptions of genuine anger to slough them off. If they choose to show up, they show up.Finally, Rand gets puppy-piled by these people. Most of them are just so excited to be talking to and joking with a genuine Australian shitposter that they trample all over him and his show. Rand is autistic - he needs to run his little toy train the way he wants to or he's going to have a melty. But he's a gentle boy, a sweet shitposter, and obviously finds it difficult to firmly, directly, yet reasonably set boundaries. Instead he relies on dismissive comments, comedic insults, and indirect expressions of exasperation - all which are interpreted by the troublesome Cubic Moreen types as just more jokes from the funny man. Do it again, funny man! Make me laugh more, funny man! Funny man, me me me! The Rand get buried in excited little puppies shitting all over him, and he drowns in their retarded affections until he throws a fit and punts the puppies all over the place.Rand has the charisma and humor to put on a great comedy show, but he can further benefit from laying down structures that encourage good guests and cohost participation, developing some techniques to manage unruly chitter-chatter in a friendly and entertaining way, and practicing keeping to his own show-flow instead of decaying into barstool miserating. Most of this stuff has to be considered and worked on in private, because Rand like most people is not going to be able to endure confronting shortcomings in front of a braying audience. And he will either do this difficult work, and more besides, to salvage and improve his show - or he will continue to slowly decay down until it is back to the laundromat with our delightful shitposter. That would suck, and be a great shame given Rand's talents, but that would be the result of his implicit choices. As fun and personally satisfying as it is to go down to the bar and bitch with The Boys, it has wasted many a man and what could have been of him.

       @graf @randbot @Shadowbroker2135 Well, both of you rattling the tin can for money as your main form of income makes you both buskers at best. I think you'd both agree it's an unreliable and somewhat degrading way of being compensated for the value you offer to largely freeloading audiences. It clearly bothers you both.Not to say you necessarily need paywalls and cute vTuber shills instead, but if you both find the begging like hobos thing degrading and insufficient, new revenue gathering methods and angles must be explored. Graf's position is more flexible and uncertain in options than Rand's, but Rand has ALL of his proven solutions already provided to him on a silver platter and needs only start digging in. Both have unique challenges and advantages to handle.Both of you ought to succeed given your talents and efforts. Whether you will succeed or not depends on whether you grow beyond mere busking and utilize new ways of delivering value to your audiences. Or, if biting each other over who is a more noble and unappreciated digital hobo is too personally gratifying, just stay the course.

       @Sargent_s_laughter @graf @randbot @Shadowbroker2135 Graf acts like one of those monks who forgoes eating because he's convinced it's noble and righteous, but complains about starving to death all the while. And when someone suggests if he hates starving so badly, maybe he should forage a bit, he lashes out at them as if morally offended. He's clearly having another hysterical episode where the stress of funding his project by scraping and begging makes him lash out at everyone - especially those just pointing out that he's enjoying the lack-of-fruits of his choices, just like Rand enjoys his. If they like it so that they'll ban the obvious observer, then I guess let them wallow in it.If he wants to be an ill-compensated hobo, then he should stop complaining about people compensating him like a hobo. Same with Rand. If he wants to NOT bow and scrape and beg for every nickel like a street urchin, then he should explore new ways to encourage people to become patrons to his project. He can ban me, whatever that means, but he can't escape the simple reality. There are gluttonous ways to eat, and responsible ways to eat, and there are stupid ways to eat. But one must eat. Things cost money, and most people don't pay for free things without other forms of incentive. Both Graf and Rand use incentives like anyone else. The incentive they currently use more than anything else is emotional coaxing of the lowest kind - begging and then becoming abusive when their begging yield is insufficient - which frankly is more degrading and unpleasant for everyone involved than most other forms of incentive. If you provide something for free, don't bitch about people accepting your price happily and moving on.
