@@eoin..Billy Mitchell, the loser who cheated a bunch of world records, harassed him and tried to silence him with lawsuits until Apollo couldn't handle it and took his life.

Hey I didn't mean to sound so negative. If they're paying you get that bag and congrats dude. I can't support kick, but I'll always stay a youtube sub haha.
@@IdJustLikeToInterjectFrAMoment The entire reason Kick exists in the first place is because they thought Twitch had too much moderation. Twitch. The hottub site.
@@IdJustLikeToInterjectFrAMoment probably because it's well established. UA-cam has problems too but no one's gonna start uploading videos to a different platform because it's way too established. That being said there have been people that gladly swapped over to UA-cam streaming to get way from twitch and its controversy at times.
I visited their site after reading all these comments vagueposting about how awful it is and the 1 thing I was able to find fault in was a category for gambling streams. I can see why some people would have an issue with that. Is there something that makes them untrustworthy in some way tho? Caught selling users' credit card/personal info? Caught lying about smth? Anything?
How did you think this was going to land? This was a bummer to hear all around. Glad you are in a better place, but the tone of this video was jarring.
@@Lucy-yc4bc Nah I'm not blaming him it could just be shooting himself in the foot now for a short term profit if he wants to do youtube for many more years
Glad to see you're doing well and that you're getting that bag. I'm not particularly interested in live streams, especially over at kick. Can't wait for new main channel vids, if they ever come back
I'm happy you're getting to do what you love & get paid for it, but turning this into an ad for Kick wasn't the right move. Definitely should've separated the topics a little better. Seems like most people in these comments would agree with that statement, too...
Because his comeback is going to be focused around using kick? Its a new area for his career and he wants to promote it, should the video have focused on how much dantes sub means to him?
@@eprimchad2576 All he needed to say was I'm gonna be streaming Runescape on Kick, but then he goes into this whole spiel about how awesome Kick is and that it's actually better than UA-cam and Twitch. Also I never said anything about unsubbing so I'm not sure why you even brought that up.
My problem with kick is not that it platforms slots/gambling, but that the money you’re receiving is (in part) from people who are ruining their lives. Gambling has always been a poor tax
I don't trust kick. If it sounds to good, it's probably not going to last. There were a lot of crypto platforms that did that. Massive rewards with no negatives? It's going to die in a year. Or kick is going to do a 180 soon and start taking massive cuts from creators.
Can you stop spamming this? Look, I agree that his death was sad, and we should absolutely remember him. But we shouldn't spam his name everywhere with the same comment over and over. Ask yourself: Is that what he'd want?
Gambling isn’t the problem about kick. It’s the people actively creating a spreading cp on kick and their discords. Or the blatant racism by their streamers but kick does nothing.
Glad you’re doing well, good luck with your stuff going forward. I think with the move to streaming and being more hands off with content, this is my jumping off point. All the best.
@@JK-gy2bc nah that's BS. That was a mentally ill man lashing out at the person most likely to be harmed by that kind of thing with his dying breath. Ezscape was no worse than anyone else, and imo was significantly kinder and more objective than most of the other people commenting on Apollo's shit. It's sad that he killed himself, but calling upon someone with nothing but malice like that really destroys any tragedy, he used his own death to try and harm someone else. That's messed up.
They don't. They're eating the expense for the time being to lure in streamers from other platforms, and once they feel like they're ready they'll start changing the revenue share to something that's profitable.
@@IdJustLikeToInterjectFrAMomentKick is pretty much home to incels and racists that couldn't spread their beliefs on Twitch. Twitch is horrible for a number of reasons is bad, but Kick is *far* worse.

Nah that ain't it man and as for your other stuff i hope it goes well but i hope do realize that this means to your old fans such as myself
I don't know much about old school runescape other than that it's not at all uncommon for people to seemingly disappear for extended periods of time when they are playing it

Ez scape plz come back. You can still play runescape and still make videos. Idc If the quality drops if you spend less time editing them. Your videos were my absolute favorite to watch. I'm sorry if people are hating on you. Hope you're well!

how does kick make money with the 95/5 split
They don't. They're eating the expense for the time being to lure in streamers from other platforms, and once they feel like they're ready they'll start changing the revenue share to something that's profitable.
As the one above me said. They just use the money from Stake, the gambling company that is the owner of Kick to pay the streamers.
They don't, the platform is literally just an advertisement for their gambling stuff.
