Hard to stay positive when you have so much hate. At least the blacks stick together and don't break each other down! Dey's is smarter den dem Dems dink boiiiiii
“Oh no, I’m losing money on my UA-cam account and I still need to support me and my unemployed girlfriend. So what do I do? Take out high dollar loans and move to an even more expensive house. That sounds about right.” -Phil, Probably.
Oh shit, they broke up. I stopped watching the DSP tries it vids from various anons and now I missed that crapshoot!? My morbid curiosity is increasing.
I interpreted that as Fredrik trying to reassure the viewer that Leanna was indeed legally an adult woman when she started dating Phil and that Phil wasn't a statutory rapist.
UA-cam really was a magnet for this sort of thing, it’s really funny seeing them all being subsidised by this shitty platform and completely eating shit when actual competition shows up.
he's also the epitome of white male privilege, being able to go as mediocre as possible and get away with it... a lot. being an American and with some decent income has also enabled, cushioned him.
Ziabetus Any situation in which he can try to make himself look like the victimized little guy, he will do it. I think he's even claimed that he didn't use a capture card for so long because he 'didn't want to be like other UA-camrs' or some nonsense like that.
Nightprowler Gladius "meme arrows"? The sheer irony of everything you just said is palpable. Also, the only person that called them funny here is you. Please return to le 9gag sir.
"UA-cam shut his channel to avoid litigations with Ubisoft, just to discover it was a honest-to-god troll pretending to be Ubisoft" Good to know some things never change.
This shits why I never did YT at all lmaooo ANY report is automatically acted on by this dumb asf automation system which lacks any sort of real checking
let's not forget him accepting thousands to play persona 3 just to rage quit it at the final boss on easy mode. even the official youtube account of atlus mocked that one.
To be fair, Nyx made many P3 players ragequit. The difference here though is that every other player of Persona 3 that ragequit at Nyx didn't e-beg on Patreon.
I like how this starts bad, gets worse, then continues to get worse beyond anything imaginable like he's somehow a singularity of failure and reality is collapsing into his event horizon of suck.
Agreed. He deserves a video, although that may mean aggressive attacks on Fredrik from King Onion Cuck. But if that happens, expect me to be at the forefront of this channel's side.
On one hand, I would looooooovvve to see a good comprehensive summation of everything the Onion boy has done. On the other hand, I can imagine that it would take an incredibly long time and maybe multiple videos, given the amount of drama that Greg finds himself in.
@@Anino_Makata Eh, Onision's fanbase has largely abandoned him. It would be like if Phil decided to do a response to this video: rambling, pathetic, and very few people, if any, would come to his defense. I wouldn't be too worried about Greg responding.
Uh. Folks that say he “fell from grace” don’t seem to recognize DSP never changed, their standards just rose from the subterranean depths to the grand heights of “expects basic competence and politeness.”
What made him "fall from grace" so to speak, was him switching over to streaming. Because people became exposed to what he's like when he actually interacts with other people. During his recording era, he only had the game and the camera to talk to. But now he has a whole stream chat full of people. And Phil has absolutely god awful social skills.
I love how Phil thought up a multiple-sentence theory on why people call him *The King of Hate* when it really just boils down to: “you’re an asshole.”
Phil actually reacted to this, and for most of the video it was him pausing and calling your facts wrong and saying what actually happened. Now if he was a sane normal person I’d believe him because not everyone is in every second of his daily life and drama, but he lies, manipulates, begs. Etc.
That's the way he always debunks stuff. He'll say why the "facts" are wrong and then say his side without any proof. Heck was on an interview last week and was supposed to "debunK" these myths about his racist humor and other crap but he had no proof. When the subject of his bank statements came up the best he could muster as a counter is "How could I be spending over 100 dollars at a pet store?" Funny enough a few days later he started to crap on the show that interviewed him calling them unprofessional, misinformed, only believed the detractors and then low key made a threat saying he has dirt on the 2 people that interviewed them that could land them in legal trouble. Just goes to show how much of a coward he is when he's not in his own echo chamber.
The only thing I believe from his claims in his video is about his deceased friend. While I know he's the master of lies, I don't think he would lie about a deceased friend. Everything else, however, baloney.
There is the german counterpart Drachenlord. He is much worse. Does nothing and everyoe hates him. But some are stupid enough to help him and give him money for nothing
Doing that is a red flag. Doing that sincerely instead of ironically is another red flag. Doubling down instead of apologizing when confronted by the fact that it is bad behavior is another red flag. Increasingly implausible claims that it's all other people's fault and never his own is another red flag. Associating the instinctive bigotry with the paranoid persecution complex is the point where friends and loved ones should be calling authorities and/or therapists.
2021 UPDATE: His bank account got leaked, and so far this year it's confirmed he spends thousands of dollars on mobile games, a thousand a month on alcohol, 2k on door dash, even more.
I picture Phil watching this and when the video describes the areas in his career he fucked up he sits there going "Bullshit! There was nothing I could do, dude! COME ONNNN"
Phil: points a camera at the tv screen for years, ignoring requests to use a capture card Phil at Twitch: I would never sacrifice the quality of my videos sir! This guy just likes to argue
Fredrik Knudsen: *Describes a Bad Thing happening to him* Me: "So was that the end or-" Fredrik Knudsen: "But this was nothing compared to what was about to occur."
I don't want to defend the guy myself, imagine a jew defending an anti-semitic dipshit who acted like an idiot and made tons of stupid financial decisions over the years, but it's kinda fucked how since the video (and likely a lot of others on the channel, i don't follow it that much) relies on depicting the people and groups in ridiculous manners and in a negative light to the point of downplaying the fucked up shit that did happen to them.
@@Raging I think the narration was fair. It's a recount of why he's infamous, not a biography of the guy. He tells the story of frankly disgusting attacks on DSP as well as telling the story of the frankly disgusting things DSP has said and done. It's not that the video is too negative on DSP it's that the guy himself is incredibly negative.
You urgently need to make an update video on this man. He uses all his fans' donations to pay for gacha games shown from bank leaks. Like, 1000s of dollars dropped on the regular, often daily. He's a gambler and actively denies any of it despite the blatant evidence. He pretends to be oblivious to it and defiantly scares all his remaining fans off one by one. Edit: and I should mention it's a mystery whether or not his current wife is aware of his habits. He also has very absurd habits of impulsively lying over the most insignificant and miniscule of things, and rages and bans people when they point out when he's lying or wrong. There's endless moments of him abusing his fanbase archived on UA-cam to witness for yourself. And every single stream these days, he throws a fit and guilt trips his audience when he doesn't receive any donations for 30-60 minutes. He literally keeps track of time. He definitely acts poorer than he is. This needs to be brought to light so no one falls for his shit anymore.
To be fair the people who legitimately fall for his shit are likely to waste their time and money on something equally absurd. Most of his financial support comes from people who get personal gratification from being a part of the drama. For someone as manipulative as Phil he's about as opaque as a window. His current story isn't even interesting enough for another rabbit hole video imo, and this is coming from someone who follows him pretty closely while waiting for the next circus, I'm more than a little ashamed to admit.
DSP wakes up every morning he gets out of bed and goes to make some cereal, he gets a bowl and pours some milk, the milk is curdled and he shouts to Panda "How was I suppose to know Milk goes in the fridge?" then he slowly starves as he puts bread in the toaster but the toaster wont work shouting to Panda "How was I suppose to know to plug the toaster in?" Panda plugs the toaster in but nothing changes, Phill hasn't paid the electricity bills. "I bought the house, why do I have to pay for dlc?"
My favorite running joke of this video is machinma cutting his pay every 5 minutes. Every two minutes we hear "and this cut into his already dwindling income". Dang man just get a job streaming is not meant for you.
All this shit went down before he moved back to Twitch. He wasn't a complete Twitch bitch until the back half of 2017. When Machinima dumped him, Curse picked him up, Laveria scammed him into a partnership, and Curse picked him up a second time.
DarkSydePhil was a once well liked youtuber he became so popular the only thing he was afraid of was losing his money and popularity which eventually of course he did.
This Rabbit Hole digs way more deep that whats shown in the video. Ever considered doing a follow up? It gets a lot whole more interesting than this I can say it for sure. All the stuff that has happened in 5 years its worth checking out.
Yeah, those 5 years do bring some good stuff. Like his wwe champions and gin adictions. The other scams, the bankrupcy and some other sagas that phil got into. And it seems that he's gotten desperate lately.
He claims he changed a lot, but in fact he is not. I mean he thinks he can hide his true form from everyone's eyes. He is still the same lair and he has never changed his attitude at all.
There are people like Chris-Chan, Terry Davis, Gene Ray and even Spoony, whose stories, despite some controversial events, might be seen as tragic... and there is DSP and Digital Homicide, who can blame only themselves for their downfall.
Terry Davis and Spoony were at least talented. Terry built a fully functioning OS by himself and Spoony made a lot of great videos that I still watch from time to time. Phil has no talent. Wait, that’s a lie. Phil is incredibly proficient at begging. And lying.
True, his life has taken a dark direction. It is pretty tragic when you think about it. However, if he were a smarter and less egotistical person, this may not have even happened to him. Like PhantomAlucard said, he brought this all on himself. Well, except for the swatting. He didn't deserve that.
Between all the rants; denial; lies; impatience; and discussing private medical issues relating to his ex-gf online - his biggest problem was a complete lack of self awareness. He lives his life like he's an adult child who has rare moments of maturity.
Perfect example of his lack of self awareness is latest ultra street fighter two rant mid game. When fan asked "Could you be less of a sore loser?" when he kept losing to a blanca player (which he is so paranoid about that he believes it's same person stream sniping him and using "lag tactics") he went absolutely ballistic and started raging that one who said it. When he was then called out that he can't improve he exploded again, stating once over again that he knows everything there is about SF2 and he achieved pro-level skill so he can't possibly improve and learning would make him bad. When he was called out this, he literally told that his viewers "Spout so much non-sense like your ass is your mouth". Oh and when mods started apologize for behalf of Phil, he called them to stop acting stupid....and then told people to "relax" and stop being butthurt and grow a pair and complained how everyone needs to grow up. Search "Scrubmode street fighter 2" and enjoy the show.
I agree with you about the manchild comment. He should have grown and matured with his content. He should have realized he couldn't play video games on the internet for the rest of his life. He should have branched out when he was getting 100k views into an actual business- game reviews, movie reviews, blogs, etc and create a network which he could have his friends and creative people have their own shows on his network. Like The Nostolgia Critic and Angry Videogame Nerd did. But Phillip was a short sighted fool.
I envy people like that. People who thrive on awkwardness, have no shame, feel no embarrassment and aren't self conscious at all. They would have no problem being loud and obnoxious or chewing with their mouth open. I swear people like that never seem to get called out for their behaviour. I'll chew with my mouth open for 2 seconds or do something I'm not allowed to do by accident and people would fucking jump on me instantly and shout me down. I worry way too much about other people and how they feel.
This episode was arduous to make; Phillip has a strong tendency to ramble, making it time-consuming to research which, incidentally, is why this episode took so long. Edit: I'd also like to mention that I didn't tell the full story behind Laveria Media; their side of the story is that, when Laveria learned Pultavi was hiring DSP, they demanded they rescind their offer.
Nah. Eric Cartman is a highly intelligent and charismatic sociopath. DSP can't claim to possess either of the two qualities. They're both obese and behave like children, but therein lie the only similarities.
"my income is slipping and I'm almost broke, what do I do?" 1. make a 4th failing youtube channel 2. retry twitch for the 3rd time 3. blame my fans 4. beg on patreon and make promises 5. not follow through on promises 6. make another youtube channel how come "work at McDonald's" never occurred to this guy
His persona 3 run still gets me. His patreon funds over 1000$ for him to play persona 3. He rages quit on the final boss on easy mode and it took him 2.5 years for him to return and beat it. I beat it on my first try on normal mode.
Phil is the kind of guy to throw a boomerang, get hit by it, and blame Australia for making such a crappy shuriken. And probably say "Wooow, nothing I could do!". Part 2 when?
"Between this and the Spoony video, I am reminded how not to act on the internet. Thanks." - it actually has made me paranoid and I'm cautious of every word.
Update for 7/27/18: Curse dropped DSP's main channel. Update for 11/30/18: Last Thursday, DSP stated that he needed $16,000 in donations in addition to his normal income to pay for taxes. He also stated that his parents were dying of an unknown disease and needed money to visit them one last time before they die. And yes, this includes money to stay at a hotel instead of his parent's place. Update for 9/18/2019: In the spring, DSP went to visit his parents with his new move in girlfriend. Surprise, though. He got married to her. The whole trip to see his dying parents was actually so he could get married behind his fans back so he doesn't get doxxed which was his excuse. In addition, recently, he had a stream where he would reveal something special for $1000 in donations. He only hits the goal due to one person footing most of that and the reveal was a cat named Jasper. This is after many many months saying that he couldn't afford to get a cat because his bank account is always overdrawn. He also stated that he had a reveal at $2000 for this stream. When the whales footed this donation goal, he revealed that it was fake! He just needed money.
HyperSquid Oh no no, I don't mean Pandalee, he began dating another woman shortly after the breakup. There's not much information about her, but it appears she is not a troll. She is legit attracted to DSP and enjoys his company. Just, why.
You mean Kat or as some circles call her 'The Horse'. He claims she's still with him but he keeps trying to hide her and any videos that seem to show her have her appear to be incredibly uncomfortable. It was shown recently that she was cheating with DSP on her old boyfriend and is believed to be a gold digger.
Princess Luna Well I already knew she wasn't wish him out of genuine love for the guy, but if it was to get his money, that's just plain stupid. He doesn't have any. I thought that was common knowledge.
It’s kinda hilarious that DSP constantly complains about terrible balancing, bugs and poor control in other games, but his greatest achievement in the FGC is thanks to bugs, terrible balancing and poor control
Swatting is "questionable"? I'm not sure I follow, it seems putting people in danger, wasting resources, and possibly lowering the tolerance and trust of our police force is objectively shit
"HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW YOU HAD TO PAY BILLS?" "Dood come on, the bank only gave me like 18 warning letters at most" "Moving money into an offshore account to avoid tax is illegal? Since when?"
If you can believe it, he has gotten considerably worse after this video was uploaded. - he was booted from Curse, forcing him to go on his own with Adsense - his Adsense was suspended because, as this video shows, he outright asked for viewers to click his ads - with the luck and survivability of a cockroach, he somehow had his Adsense unbanned and is currently receiving (albeit weak) revenue - he somehow managed to net what we in the detractor community like to call a paypig, someone who is responsible for much of a streamer’s revenue. This piggy is called tutankhamunnn and was responsible for over *65%* Of Phil’s revenue for September. - he also managed to drive away this piggy by showing no gratitude for this person gifting over 700 subscribers and donating well over $3k in bits and tips - since breaking up with Leanna, he immediately picked up a woman named Kat, who was found to be a golddigger after some digging by the detractor community. Phil was actually talking to Kat while he was still with Leanna, and used much of the money raised for “taxes” to fly Kat to WA from Michigan, as well as moving her in after only meeting her 3-4 times. - Phil has raised money to complete another entry of his DSP Tries It series, but has since ignored the obligation and bans anyone who brings it up on stream - Phil has adopted the term, “interaction,” but not as you or I might use the word. Whereas interaction means talking to and responding to chat, Phil interprets it as receiving money from his fans. If you ever read his twitter and see a tweet that says, “fun stream tonight! lots of interaction!” You’ll know that he meant a lot of people were cheering and tipping - he will often, and I mean OFTEN bitch about low viewership, will blatantly ignore the game or stop the game (something he claimed he would never do) to read shoutouts, and at his lowest point this year, actually shilled for Ubisoft, doing a sponsored stream for the latest Assassins Creed game. Mind you, he was already playing the game and had PLENTY negative to say about it, but during the sponsored stream had nothing but positive things to say about the game.
Damn... Talk about a guy who continues to bite the hands that feed him, despite how lucky he is to even have been given these opportunities in the first place. And yet, someone always seems to be willing to give him another chance... Cockroach indeed.
isn't it all about having fun? i'm pretty bad at fps, but at least i can get so much fun with the homies on battlefront 2. and i've watched alot of streamers who were bad at video games, but at least they have fun and laugh it off, cracking jokes, instead of raging and blaming everything but themselves
@@falconer-ts8fq Yeah, but it just baffles me that a guy like dsp that has played so many games still somehow sucks at them. Sure, not everyone is an expert gamer, but I'm pretty sure even the average non gamer would find something they're half decent at if they had played as many games as dsp has. I'm also surprised that dsp fails to understand even the most basic mechanics (eg. The famous crouch jump video, I mean, the instructions are literally in the name. Crouch, then jump) but maybe I'm just being a sweatlord lol, I'm extremely competitive so I focus on skill more than fun. I do agree though that games are meant to be fun, I just have trouble having fun because I'm so focused on winning I guess.
@@abandonedaccountlel7605 exactly...hey, everyone has their bad days. one day, you rip asses left and right and always come to the top, and next day you play so bad like you've never touched that game before. but DSP is something else. instead of trying to get better and better, he always swears and cusses and blames everything but himself. and at least he should try to be likable, EVERYBODY MAKES MISTAKES GODDAMIT. he always finds excuses and he always looks so depressed when playing, then what's the point in following that sack of shit?
In some part of my mind, I feel kinda bad for because of the crappy situation he’s in financial but holy shit he’s got a massive ego for no reason. He doesn’t seem to understand a single bit of humility in the slightest.
I don't feel bad over Phils financial situation, he put himself into that trouble by taking out loans to buy a house he couldn't afford while his channels were on a decline. Also planning anything around youtube is incredibly stupid in general. Calling youtube a volatile environment for a 'job' is an understatement. I wonder what he was thinking.
There are plenty of people who are successful youtubers who make a living off of youtube for years but it in Phil's case he was never making enough money to begin with and he was never earning anywhere near enough money to quit his day job, youtube should’ve just been a hobby until it he really started to blow up in popularity views. Anyone with half a brain could have seen that posting 20 videos a day and only getting a few hundred views with subpar commentary and quality that could NOT warrant any success.
Yeah, okay, planning anything around youtube while putting all eggs in one basket with no 'PlanB' while your popularity is waning. As you say there are success stories. Guess Phil thought he was one of them. Father Time has sure showed him different.
I swear, watching any other UA-cam channel is like watching Netflix or TV, but watching DSP is like watching a gorilla sling shit everywhere from behind a glass window at a zoo
I like how Fredrick's closing moral for this episode is about the "volatility of a fanbase" when the clear moral here is actually "don't be a piece of shit".
I agree. Some content creators talk about how viewers aren't owed anything from them and then forget that the exact same applies the other way around. If all you do is shit on anyone who ever even remotely criticizes you, your viewers will turn away because that's fucking annoying and not fun. He could have decided to ignore the hate, been a good sport to people in the community, and things may have ended so differently. Also, anti-semitism. 'nough said.
@@taylorbrine I highly doubt he's an actual antisemite. Those were clearly jokes. Unless there are other anti-Semitic comments not covered in this video.
@@c_f0rce It's pretty clearly a shit-house Borat impression, not his real thoughts. Saying anti-semitic things is still anti-semitic though, even if you aren't an actual anti-semite.
i almost, ALMOST feel sorry for the guy. if only he accepted that his pride was blocking him from becoming a better person and player, he would get more views
It’s been long enough, we need a part 2 DSP himself said he’d react to the video at 400 members on UA-cam, and since this is 6 years old now, it’s time for the update on the last 5 years
This man now wants 16k in donations to pay his taxes lol (this man now scammed his fans once again he charged his fans 1k to reveal he got a cat! Ended up getting 2k)
And he got 1.1k in total i think? He didn't reach the 16k goal but still got WAY too much for what he does. Even today he gets around $50 in donations per stream. Meaning he's making at least $70 daily.
@@GaliosUA They started dating when she turned 18. Meaning DSP probably knew her when she was younger... Also not really, he was way older than her. It may be legal but it's still kinda weird.
@@roundabout468 what this guy says is right. She was 18 when they first started dating publicly, but they must go back at least a year, if not more considering.
Can we please get a part 2? He is so much worse now, as he has a mobile game addiction, and spends the entirety of his income on DoorDash and booze from Total Wine. Additionally 90% of his income is coming from a group of like 3-5 people.
I used to watch Phil's content exclusively back in 2010-2013. Even though part of me feels bad for what his life has become, I feel his story is a cautionary tale about the dangers of greed and ego. I honestly believe the best thing for him would be to quit UA-cam for a while. Sell the house, move back to CT, apologize to all his friends for his selfish antics over the past 5 years. Get a full time job and start interacting with real people again.
mineonlyhooves Probably never gonna happen because he keeps getting these new chances. His e-begging actually works to some extent too. He has many options at hand. He has many luxaries that he can, but wont give up, if he wanted to stay afloat, without begging. Overall, I don't understand why people would feel bad for him. He's an arrogant, self-centered ego-trip, yet time and time again he's able to weasle his way out of trouble. Not many UA-camrs in his situation can say the same.
It's gotten to the point that people are questioning just how in trouble, financially, he really is. The amount of money he's making should not be keeping him afloat. He's either lying and he still has a lot of money stored up, or he's getting a lot of help from his parents.
I have no idea who this person is. I'm not entirely sure why I care about his financial situation throughout the years. Yet here I am. Nice video, man. Very entertaining. It's evident there's a shit ton of research behind it.
I was 'late' to the DSP party. I researched Phil for 4 days to make sure I got the whole story. Lets just say the evidence against him is astronomical. He clearly has earned his infamy.
You forgot to mention some big topics to why he's hated now: - He claims to be broke and still owns the Condo but refuses to sell it because it has devalued. - He lives in a giant house on a private road but refuses to get a smaller place. - He leased an expensive BMW which he rarely used. - He lost his best friend because he was so greedy.
Hoax Devalued? In Seattle? Bullshit. Housing prices have done nothing but skyrocket in recent years, the median price for a home there is around $750k, hell that's up 15 fucking percent from LAST YEAR ALONE.
This is a very well made video. I came here hoping to get a summary of who DSP is, and I pretty much got it without any fluff or insults towards him. Good on you for making something that's purely informative.
6 years on, Philip is now a middle-aged man and sadly this video is *still* relevant as his behaviour has not changed. Indeed, with a dwindling viewership on his own channel and allegedly heavily relying on tips and direct PayPal contributions he spends an inordinate amount of time begging for money either during play session or directly to camera with the routine excuses of not being able to meet this month's bills and/or being able to purchase new games. As well as continuing to ban viewer that do in fact financially contribute, Philip has also taken to long-form rants about what he calls his "detractors" going so far as to call anyone that doesn't listen to him an "stupid brainless idiots" and dictates to his small fan base to only listen to him. The "detractors" also take the form of a cottage industry of other UA-cam creators that clip and monetise his content much to Philip's chagrin.
What I learned from this 1) Too much pride. 2) Playing the victim card (blaming others). 3) Inconsideration for others and the subscribers. 4) Arrogance. Let’s this be a lesson to all of us.
That fan who got banned by DSP has gotten possibly the sweetest case of revenge. First, popularizing the trend "This is how you don't play X" and not only it was enough to start a meme, it also exposed DSP's bruised ego and him abusing UA-cam's flagging system. Completely ironic that DSP finally got recognition but not in the best way and it actually contributed to his decline by taking away the attention from him. He's a brilliant mastermind that guy.
I know right? This popped up on my recommended list and I watched it again only to discover that I stopped watching this last time right after hearing that dick-knot smacking his fat jowls on a fucking tater tot.
For the longest time I thought Darksydephil was just a character he played kind of like James Rolfe from the AVGN. But no, I realized it wasn't an act the further and further Phil descended into madness.
Comparing him with AVGN it's like comparing hot camel diarrhea to Phil's BBQ sauce (it's a restaurant in san diego and nothing to do with this phil btw)
He’s still in character. Just not when it comes to the e-begging, having two mortgages, a car loan, the taxes, and the infamously long-lived “muh bills.” He breaks character at times. Like when Viscant tried to fight him. Or when Jaha ran him down. Or when Twitter blew up on him over the State of Decay 2 “paid shills” comment. You get the idea.
He mainly did that to see if TIHYDPs would stop since they typically showcased comments on screen regarding a particular fail that he did but that didn't stop anything. And it's not like he reads comments anyways so what's the point in disabling them?
@@infernoROBO he used to read them, he would address the criticism he got by insulting people on the next video instead of trying to improve. Keep in mind that those people were fans of his who just wanted him to stop making a fool of himself while playing a game. It was simple things like "you skipped the tutorials and are shitting on the game when it's your fault" that pissed him off because in his mind, he knows better than you and he's not responsible for it, the game gave you the option to skip so the devs are to blame for it not him. That kind of thing is what turned his his fans to "detractors"
@@hoppinggnomethe4154 Barely anything in his channel reaches 1000 views within the first month, there's no point in doing that when at most he has 30 dislikes. Even then, a fair amount of his own videos have more likes than dislikes, not for much but still. Idk how much he can win with his youtube account, but the way he treats it makes it seems as twich it's his priority and youtube is just an easy buck, the comments are disable just to mess with the TIHYDPs people make, the likes/dislikes have no use so he doesn't give a fuck about them.
Extreme mood swings, pathological lying, refusal to apologize, inability to groom one's self, inability to take the slightest bit of criticism -- the same symptoms show up again and again whenever these types of people use the Internet. I swear, a new diagnosis called Internet personality disorder is going to be created in the future, mark my words.
These are symptoms of already existing personality disorders. Tbh, it wouldn't surprise me at all if the vast majority of people who become notorious on the internet have serious undiagnosed personality disorders.
It's just narcissism run wild. It's been incentivized in today's society on all levels. The internet has just put it in the spotlight, front and center. No need for a new diagnosis.
Just to set the record straight, Phil didn't get swatted. The police knocked on his door and asked if everything was ok, walked through his house and left. He played the victim and made it out like the cops broke down his door and held a gun to his head.
Johnny Zen What’s much worse is that he flat out blamed everyone who was making fun of him or criticizing his behavior for the incident. He literally claimed that the people who were making TIHYDP videos or mocking him in any form (even so much as casually bringing up horrible things he did in the past) were directly responsible for this “attempted murder”.
@@m.w.9899 technically it is but in his case it was more of a wellness check. He even admitted it was as much then claimed the next day that he almost got murdered when he realized he could pull the victim card.
The rabbit hole just continues to go deeper and deeper... - This past Thanksgiving, Phil had yet ANOTHER begathon, just like he did in 2017. - For clarification, last year he begged his fans for money, claiming that DSPGaming wasn’t a business and had been dodging a business and occupation tax for years. Despite the fact that he was writing off electricity, video games, printer paper, etc. for taxes, he was shocked and blown away that he owed a lot of money and raised between $5k-$10k last year. - Around this time, he moved his current girlfriend Kat in with him from across the country and claimed it cost a lot of money to do so. -Fast forward to this year’s begathon; he now claims that the $10k he owed to taxes last year went into his CREDIT CARDS, and the $5k-$10k raised last year just vanished off the face of the earth. - He began claiming that the REAL reason he was booted from Curse was trolls; his claim was that when he was released on July 20th, he was somehow important enough to warrant an, “off the record conference call,” where nothing was in writing. He went on to claim that despite dozens upon DOZENS of people being released from their partnership, Curse (just like machinima) LOVED him and his content (dumping anywhere between 30-50 ten min videos a day to his channel) and never wanted to get rid of him. His claim was his number of false flags was too much for Curse to handle as they had to go through each and every report. This is a bold faced lie. He claims that the cost of manpower to close his reports greatly outweighed the money he was bringing in. Again, he claims trolls were responsible, despite plenty of evidence existing that MANY channels were released. - He claims that his life and his relationship were amazing; somehow, a young woman, not even 30 years old yet, is okay with being in a relationship where there is heavy financial debt, she’s forbidden from having any social media or internet footprint, is okay with working 8+ hours 5-6 days a week at a real job while her asshole lover is sitting on his ass playing video games for hours a day, etc. He ALSO claims that the financial strain has put the relationship, “on hold,” leading many to believe he wants his fans to pay for an engagement ring for Kat. - In a particularly disgusting move, Phil claimed that his elderly parents want him to come home from Washington to Connecticut to see them. He claims that he can tell that something is wrong with his parents and their health but they haven’t said anything as to not make him worry... Mind you, his parents are in their 60s and his father is still working full time. He claims that he doesn’t know how much longer they’re going to live and despite them offering to pay his travel expenses, accommodations, rent a vehicle/use their own, etc. he simply CANNOT DO IT. His parents are (allegedly) dying and he can’t stop streaming! ...even though he took the day off before Thanksgiving and is taking the day off this Wednesday. Sure seems urgent! - He proceeded to lay out his woes; despite making anywhere between $7k-$10k a month, Phil needs AN ADDITIONAL $16k by April. This is way more than he needed last year. - He offered a few “solutions” to his problems; pay off taxes by taking out more loans (lol wut), refinance his gout mansion (though he would need to prove he is up to date on backed taxes for at least 2 years which I ain’t buying), and his main solution, the only one he’s interested in, he hopes that, “a miracle,” happens, like he lands an opportunity to make more money more quickly, that some GENEROUS FAN (hint hint) drops the money on him, etc. - Mind you, he claims he can’t get a job because he’s already, “working 12 hours a day,” (which is laughable considering he barely streams 4-6 hours of gameplay, he has two 1+ hour prestreams where he pisses and moans about his financial problems and trolls, and takes multiple 15-30 minutes breaks each time he streams), he can’t sell the house because his, “office,” has soundproofing foam on the wall (???), he can’t move back to CT because it, “costs too much money,” etc. - He has no solutions and proposed no changes, he’s simply using his fans as an atm, he still streams the same boring shit and ignores his chat unless they give him actual money, and has actually gotten MORE toxic since. I... I just don’t understand this person. His ego is so big, SO BIG. A detractor named Tevin (who has drawn all of Phil’s ire as of late) restreams Phil’s streams as a way to counter inflated views on Phil’s actual stream. Phil is lucky to keep anywhere between 200-400 viewers at any given time, while Tevin brings anywhere between 1k-2k. Phil gets very angry about this and proclaims, “you ever notice how Tevin has sometimes 5x the viewers I do? And yet, somehow, I still make WAY more money! Let’s think about that for a second!” Less than 24 hours later... “guys, I’m really worried... My Twitch payment should’ve been here and I have no money left in my bank account... I need you to tip! I may have to wait another day or two til I get my money!” He has absolutely no shame and deserves to lose everything. Even though his parents are only in their 60s, were in good enough health a year or two ago to paint rooms for Phil’s house, and even working full time, he claims they’re dying and he may never get to see them again. That. Is. LOW. Burn in hell, Burnell.
ron sae This just happened a few days ago and someone replied to the last comment I left last night. So I made an update because people need to know who this guy is and that he does NOT deserve your money. IM obsessed? You don’t know the half of it.

@D Zuke I think he's just grown up a little. He used to be super edgy and liked to criticize other youtubers cus that's easy money, but it doesn't earn you much respect.
Many content creators who faded into obscurity were hit by some kind of bad decision or a tragedy in their personal life taking a toll on their content. DarkSydePhil is one of the few whose poor status and personal struggles are entirely to blame on himself without having broken any laws or getting into legal trouble (with the exception of the S.W.A.T. incident, but that wasn't his fault). He's not a criminal, he's not someone who cheated his way into finding fame, he's just a loser in every sense of the word with an unconsciously massive ego who refuses to learn and take responsibility for his poor behavior, which is all the more sad when you realize that with such a long-lasting career, he had every opportunity to save himself if by simply apologizing.

The emphasis makes it sound like he's surprised
Trust me, everybody was surprised. Everybody was less surprised when she left him.

Pokemanic33 God just watching that clip of him and her creeps me out, she looks uncomfortable but he has no issue with invading personal space
I interpreted that as Fredrik trying to reassure the viewer that Leanna was indeed legally an adult woman when she started dating Phil and that Phil wasn't a statutory rapist.

It went from seeming like "comedic meanness" to "Wow, this guy really is just a piece of work, isn't he?"
Agreed.
What made him "fall from grace" so to speak, was him switching over to streaming. Because people became exposed to what he's like when he actually interacts with other people. During his recording era, he only had the game and the camera to talk to. But now he has a whole stream chat full of people. And Phil has absolutely god awful social skills.

Phil actually reacted to this, and for most of the video it was him pausing and calling your facts wrong and saying what actually happened. Now if he was a sane normal person I’d believe him because not everyone is in every second of his daily life and drama, but he lies, manipulates, begs. Etc.
That's the way he always debunks stuff. He'll say why the "facts" are wrong and then say his side without any proof.
Heck was on an interview last week and was supposed to "debunK" these myths about his racist humor and other crap but he had no proof. When the subject of his bank statements came up the best he could muster as a counter is "How could I be spending over 100 dollars at a pet store?"
Funny enough a few days later he started to crap on the show that interviewed him calling them unprofessional, misinformed, only believed the detractors and then low key made a threat saying he has dirt on the 2 people that interviewed them that could land them in legal trouble. Just goes to show how much of a coward he is when he's not in his own echo chamber.

He's lucky he's a white guy. I can't imagine that ending as well for a streamer of color.
You urgently need to make an update video on this man. He uses all his fans' donations to pay for gacha games shown from bank leaks. Like, 1000s of dollars dropped on the regular, often daily. He's a gambler and actively denies any of it despite the blatant evidence. He pretends to be oblivious to it and defiantly scares all his remaining fans off one by one.
Edit: and I should mention it's a mystery whether or not his current wife is aware of his habits. He also has very absurd habits of impulsively lying over the most insignificant and miniscule of things, and rages and bans people when they point out when he's lying or wrong. There's endless moments of him abusing his fanbase archived on UA-cam to witness for yourself. And every single stream these days, he throws a fit and guilt trips his audience when he doesn't receive any donations for 30-60 minutes. He literally keeps track of time. He definitely acts poorer than he is. This needs to be brought to light so no one falls for his shit anymore.
To be fair the people who legitimately fall for his shit are likely to waste their time and money on something equally absurd. Most of his financial support comes from people who get personal gratification from being a part of the drama. For someone as manipulative as Phil he's about as opaque as a window. His current story isn't even interesting enough for another rabbit hole video imo, and this is coming from someone who follows him pretty closely while waiting for the next circus, I'm more than a little ashamed to admit.

The hilarious thing is that he is so unsure about his own maturity that he tells other people immature, to grow up, and think like an adult.
He brought it all on himself. No sympathy from me, not with his attitude being what it is.
True, his life has taken a dark direction. It is pretty tragic when you think about it. However, if he were a smarter and less egotistical person, this may not have even happened to him. Like PhantomAlucard said, he brought this all on himself. Well, except for the swatting. He didn't deserve that.
Between all the rants; denial; lies; impatience; and discussing private medical issues relating to his ex-gf online - his biggest problem was a complete lack of self awareness. He lives his life like he's an adult child who has rare moments of maturity.
Guldalder Fair enough
Perfect example of his lack of self awareness is latest ultra street fighter two rant mid game. When fan asked "Could you be less of a sore loser?" when he kept losing to a blanca player (which he is so paranoid about that he believes it's same person stream sniping him and using "lag tactics") he went absolutely ballistic and started raging that one who said it.
When he was then called out that he can't improve he exploded again, stating once over again that he knows everything there is about SF2 and he achieved pro-level skill so he can't possibly improve and learning would make him bad. When he was called out this, he literally told that his viewers "Spout so much non-sense like your ass is your mouth".
Oh and when mods started apologize for behalf of Phil, he called them to stop acting stupid....and then told people to "relax" and stop being butthurt and grow a pair and complained how everyone needs to grow up. Search "Scrubmode street fighter 2" and enjoy the show.
I agree with you about the manchild comment. He should have grown and matured with his content. He should have realized he couldn't play video games on the internet for the rest of his life. He should have branched out when he was getting 100k views into an actual business- game reviews, movie reviews, blogs, etc and create a network which he could have his friends and creative people have their own shows on his network. Like The Nostolgia Critic and Angry Videogame Nerd did. But Phillip was a short sighted fool.

I envy people like that. People who thrive on awkwardness, have no shame, feel no embarrassment and aren't self conscious at all. They would have no problem being loud and obnoxious or chewing with their mouth open.
I swear people like that never seem to get called out for their behaviour. I'll chew with my mouth open for 2 seconds or do something I'm not allowed to do by accident and people would fucking jump on me instantly and shout me down. I worry way too much about other people and how they feel.
Dude, all of your content is insanely well-researched and presented excellently. You're killing it, keep it up!
This episode was arduous to make; Phillip has a strong tendency to ramble, making it time-consuming to research which, incidentally, is why this episode took so long.
Edit: I'd also like to mention that I didn't tell the full story behind Laveria Media; their side of the story is that, when Laveria learned Pultavi was hiring DSP, they demanded they rescind their offer.

Tyler So this was the guy? Holy crap no wonder he looked so familiar.
Didn't seem that long to me, I just discovered you yesterday.
Phil is like Eric Cartman but in real life
Nah. Eric Cartman is a highly intelligent and charismatic sociopath. DSP can't claim to possess either of the two qualities. They're both obese and behave like children, but therein lie the only similarities.
He’s Cartman but an absolute moron

UPDATE: Humanity still sucks.
UPDATE: DSP gets worse and more pathetic by the minute
UPDATE: There is no UPDATE. Everything's still the same.
DOWNDATE: Pignosis is real
UPDATE: DSP just lost his pseudonym so I have taken it. I am now known as...DankSideGil.
Between this and the Spoony video, I am reminded how *not* to act on the internet. Thanks.
Not to mention how NOT to treat your fans and viewers.
Spoony??
Ironically not just by DSP and Spoony themselves but also the people that they were around too. Everyone was scummy in these vids tbh.
+OlivineCityMetal Yeah. The LordKat part in the Spoony video for example was better at highlighting the assholery of LordKat himself than of Spoony.
"Between this and the Spoony video, I am reminded how not to act on the internet. Thanks." - it actually has made me paranoid and I'm cautious of every word.
Update for 7/27/18: Curse dropped DSP's main channel.
Update for 11/30/18: Last Thursday, DSP stated that he needed $16,000 in donations in addition to his normal income to pay for taxes. He also stated that his parents were dying of an unknown disease and needed money to visit them one last time before they die. And yes, this includes money to stay at a hotel instead of his parent's place.
Update for 9/18/2019: In the spring, DSP went to visit his parents with his new move in girlfriend. Surprise, though. He got married to her. The whole trip to see his dying parents was actually so he could get married behind his fans back so he doesn't get doxxed which was his excuse.
In addition, recently, he had a stream where he would reveal something special for $1000 in donations. He only hits the goal due to one person footing most of that and the reveal was a cat named Jasper. This is after many many months saying that he couldn't afford to get a cat because his bank account is always overdrawn. He also stated that he had a reveal at $2000 for this stream. When the whales footed this donation goal, he revealed that it was fake! He just needed money.
Princess Luna YAY! Now if only I could find out if that girl he's dating finally wised up and ditched his ass.
Amelia Bee watch the end of the video the text said they broke up
HyperSquid Oh no no, I don't mean Pandalee, he began dating another woman shortly after the breakup. There's not much information about her, but it appears she is not a troll. She is legit attracted to DSP and enjoys his company. Just, why.
You mean Kat or as some circles call her 'The Horse'.
He claims she's still with him but he keeps trying to hide her and any videos that seem to show her have her appear to be incredibly uncomfortable. It was shown recently that she was cheating with DSP on her old boyfriend and is believed to be a gold digger.
Princess Luna Well I already knew she wasn't wish him out of genuine love for the guy, but if it was to get his money, that's just plain stupid. He doesn't have any. I thought that was common knowledge.
It’s kinda hilarious that DSP constantly complains about terrible balancing, bugs and poor control in other games, but his greatest achievement in the FGC is thanks to bugs, terrible balancing and poor control
Swatting is "questionable"? I'm not sure I follow, it seems putting people in danger, wasting resources, and possibly lowering the tolerance and trust of our police force is objectively shit
Odin Destroyer of Used Car Salesmen he has said later on that calling it questionable was wrong.

If you can believe it, he has gotten considerably worse after this video was uploaded.
- he was booted from Curse, forcing him to go on his own with Adsense
- his Adsense was suspended because, as this video shows, he outright asked for viewers to click his ads
- with the luck and survivability of a cockroach, he somehow had his Adsense unbanned and is currently receiving (albeit weak) revenue
- he somehow managed to net what we in the detractor community like to call a paypig, someone who is responsible for much of a streamer’s revenue. This piggy is called tutankhamunnn and was responsible for over *65%* Of Phil’s revenue for September.
- he also managed to drive away this piggy by showing no gratitude for this person gifting over 700 subscribers and donating well over $3k in bits and tips
- since breaking up with Leanna, he immediately picked up a woman named Kat, who was found to be a golddigger after some digging by the detractor community. Phil was actually talking to Kat while he was still with Leanna, and used much of the money raised for “taxes” to fly Kat to WA from Michigan, as well as moving her in after only meeting her 3-4 times.
- Phil has raised money to complete another entry of his DSP Tries It series, but has since ignored the obligation and bans anyone who brings it up on stream
- Phil has adopted the term, “interaction,” but not as you or I might use the word. Whereas interaction means talking to and responding to chat, Phil interprets it as receiving money from his fans. If you ever read his twitter and see a tweet that says, “fun stream tonight! lots of interaction!” You’ll know that he meant a lot of people were cheering and tipping
- he will often, and I mean OFTEN bitch about low viewership, will blatantly ignore the game or stop the game (something he claimed he would never do) to read shoutouts, and at his lowest point this year, actually shilled for Ubisoft, doing a sponsored stream for the latest Assassins Creed game. Mind you, he was already playing the game and had PLENTY negative to say about it, but during the sponsored stream had nothing but positive things to say about the game.

I posted another comment updating everyone if you care to read. It’s on here, I just posted it a little while ago.
this guy has played so many games yet he's somehow bad at all of them
Indeed
No problem being bad or calling the game shit when you are angry the problem is blaming your failures on a medium instead of yourself
isn't it all about having fun? i'm pretty bad at fps, but at least i can get so much fun with the homies on battlefront 2. and i've watched alot of streamers who were bad at video games, but at least they have fun and laugh it off, cracking jokes, instead of raging and blaming everything but themselves
@@falconer-ts8fq Yeah, but it just baffles me that a guy like dsp that has played so many games still somehow sucks at them. Sure, not everyone is an expert gamer, but I'm pretty sure even the average non gamer would find something they're half decent at if they had played as many games as dsp has. I'm also surprised that dsp fails to understand even the most basic mechanics (eg. The famous crouch jump video, I mean, the instructions are literally in the name. Crouch, then jump) but maybe I'm just being a sweatlord lol, I'm extremely competitive so I focus on skill more than fun. I do agree though that games are meant to be fun, I just have trouble having fun because I'm so focused on winning I guess.
@@abandonedaccountlel7605 exactly...hey, everyone has their bad days. one day, you rip asses left and right and always come to the top, and next day you play so bad like you've never touched that game before. but DSP is something else. instead of trying to get better and better, he always swears and cusses and blames everything but himself. and at least he should try to be likable, EVERYBODY MAKES MISTAKES GODDAMIT. he always finds excuses and he always looks so depressed when playing, then what's the point in following that sack of shit?
"Phillip's pride after taking *4th place* was inflated"
literally by this point every time something bad happened to him in this video (except the swatting) i just found myself saying: "good"
In some part of my mind, I feel kinda bad for because of the crappy situation he’s in financial but holy shit he’s got a massive ego for no reason. He doesn’t seem to understand a single bit of humility in the slightest.
I don't feel bad over Phils financial situation, he put himself into that trouble by taking out loans to buy a house he couldn't afford while his channels were on a decline.
Also planning anything around youtube is incredibly stupid in general. Calling youtube a volatile environment for a 'job' is an understatement. I wonder what he was thinking.
There are plenty of people who are successful youtubers who make a living off of youtube for years but it in Phil's case he was never making enough money to begin with and he was never earning anywhere near enough money to quit his day job, youtube should’ve just been a hobby until it he really started to blow up in popularity views. Anyone with half a brain could have seen that posting 20 videos a day and only getting a few hundred views with subpar commentary and quality that could NOT warrant any success.
Yeah, okay, planning anything around youtube while putting all eggs in one basket with no 'PlanB' while your popularity is waning. As you say there are success stories.
Guess Phil thought he was one of them. Father Time has sure showed him different.
I swear, watching any other UA-cam channel is like watching Netflix or TV, but watching DSP is like watching a gorilla sling shit everywhere from behind a glass window at a zoo
It is literally not even remotely close to Netflix or TV… I grew up cable, there’s a totally different vibe

I agree. Some content creators talk about how viewers aren't owed anything from them and then forget that the exact same applies the other way around. If all you do is shit on anyone who ever even remotely criticizes you, your viewers will turn away because that's fucking annoying and not fun. He could have decided to ignore the hate, been a good sport to people in the community, and things may have ended so differently.

...nicely done.
I used to watch Phil's content exclusively back in 2010-2013. Even though part of me feels bad for what his life has become, I feel his story is a cautionary tale about the dangers of greed and ego. I honestly believe the best thing for him would be to quit UA-cam for a while. Sell the house, move back to CT, apologize to all his friends for his selfish antics over the past 5 years. Get a full time job and start interacting with real people again.
mineonlyhooves
Probably never gonna happen because he keeps getting these new chances. His e-begging actually works to some extent too. He has many options at hand. He has many luxaries that he can, but wont give up, if he wanted to stay afloat, without begging. Overall, I don't understand why people would feel bad for him. He's an arrogant, self-centered ego-trip, yet time and time again he's able to weasle his way out of trouble. Not many UA-camrs in his situation can say the same.
It's gotten to the point that people are questioning just how in trouble, financially, he really is. The amount of money he's making should not be keeping him afloat. He's either lying and he still has a lot of money stored up, or he's getting a lot of help from his parents.
mineonlyhooves DSP is one of the big reasons I fell in love with street fighter and Zangief. It's crazy to see how his life changed since then.
I live in CT so please dont joke
mineonlyhooves
That would imply that he's even remotely capable of actual self-evaluation.
I have no idea who this person is. I'm not entirely sure why I care about his financial situation throughout the years. Yet here I am. Nice video, man. Very entertaining. It's evident there's a shit ton of research behind it.
I was 'late' to the DSP party. I researched Phil for 4 days to make sure I got the whole story. Lets just say the evidence against him is astronomical. He clearly has earned his infamy.
Same. don't care about this doofus, but he makes an interesting story
Watching summaries of the careers of youtubers is FAR more interesting than actually watching the horrible, self-obsessed videos they make.
It's a lot better to hear about a trainwreck from somebody else, than to be on the train.
MICHELLE VISAGE!!!! 🧡🧡
Fun fact: Phil spent more than $40,000 on a mobile game
For all of his flaws, DSP brought one important revelation to light, a hard reality that we were forced to accept:
Shrimp ramen contains no shrimp.
hell yeah baby
you're not wrong
Bugged ramen mechanics!
Yeah and I'll never forget him for all he's done for the ramen community
The shrip, sadly, is a one trick pony
You forgot to mention some big topics to why he's hated now:
- He claims to be broke and still owns the Condo but refuses to sell it because it has devalued.
- He lives in a giant house on a private road but refuses to get a smaller place.
- He leased an expensive BMW which he rarely used.
- He lost his best friend because he was so greedy.
Hoax Devalued? In Seattle? Bullshit. Housing prices have done nothing but skyrocket in recent years, the median price for a home there is around $750k, hell that's up 15 fucking percent from LAST YEAR ALONE.
Kevin Arteaga So that means DSP was BSing about house being devalued so he doesn't have to move.
Tenzing Khedup Looks like it, yeah.
Kevin Artega, The Condo is in Connecticut, and yes he moved into a 2 floor house across the country while his revenue kept decreasing
Wait...He has friends?
This is a very well made video. I came here hoping to get a summary of who DSP is, and I pretty much got it without any fluff or insults towards him. Good on you for making something that's purely informative.
6 years on, Philip is now a middle-aged man and sadly this video is *still* relevant as his behaviour has not changed. Indeed, with a dwindling viewership on his own channel and allegedly heavily relying on tips and direct PayPal contributions he spends an inordinate amount of time begging for money either during play session or directly to camera with the routine excuses of not being able to meet this month's bills and/or being able to purchase new games.
As well as continuing to ban viewer that do in fact financially contribute, Philip has also taken to long-form rants about what he calls his "detractors" going so far as to call anyone that doesn't listen to him an "stupid brainless idiots" and dictates to his small fan base to only listen to him.
The "detractors" also take the form of a cottage industry of other UA-cam creators that clip and monetise his content much to Philip's chagrin.
What I learned from this
1) Too much pride.
2) Playing the victim card (blaming others).
3) Inconsideration for others and the subscribers.
4) Arrogance.
Let’s this be a lesson to all of us.
5) terrible financial management
Sounds like an SJW lol
Narcissism
seems to be a running theme in the downfall of a lot of youtubers
8) unwilling to improve like even a little
That fan who got banned by DSP has gotten possibly the sweetest case of revenge. First, popularizing the trend "This is how you don't play X" and not only it was enough to start a meme, it also exposed DSP's bruised ego and him abusing UA-cam's flagging system. Completely ironic that DSP finally got recognition but not in the best way and it actually contributed to his decline by taking away the attention from him.
He's a brilliant mastermind that guy.

For the longest time I thought Darksydephil was just a character he played kind of like James Rolfe from the AVGN. But no, I realized it wasn't an act the further and further Phil descended into madness.
Comparing him with AVGN it's like comparing hot camel diarrhea to Phil's BBQ sauce (it's a restaurant in san diego and nothing to do with this phil btw)
Back then, it was just for fun and wasn't supposed to be taken seriously. Then, his isolation caused him to go insane more and more.
If it was a character, he wouldn't be in his financial mess, or have stagnant subscriber growth.
He’s still in character. Just not when it comes to the e-begging, having two mortgages, a car loan, the taxes, and the infamously long-lived “muh bills.”

the fact that this guy survived the camera's still on incident means he will outlast every youtube channel on the planet
checking this guy in july 2020, he has just disabled comments on everything with high view of 2k and lows of 200
He disabled comments like a long time ago, he said the comments were always toxic and that they would estrange new viewers.
He mainly did that to see if TIHYDPs would stop since they typically showcased comments on screen regarding a particular fail that he did but that didn't stop anything. And it's not like he reads comments anyways so what's the point in disabling them?
@@infernoROBO he used to read them, he would address the criticism he got by insulting people on the next video instead of trying to improve. Keep in mind that those people were fans of his who just wanted him to stop making a fool of himself while playing a game.
It was simple things like "you skipped the tutorials and are shitting on the game when it's your fault" that pissed him off because in his mind, he knows better than you and he's not responsible for it, the game gave you the option to skip so the devs are to blame for it not him. That kind of thing is what turned his his fans to "detractors"
He didn't even disable the likes and dislikes lol
@@hoppinggnomethe4154 Barely anything in his channel reaches 1000 views within the first month, there's no point in doing that when at most he has 30 dislikes. Even then, a fair amount of his own videos have more likes than dislikes, not for much but still. Idk how much he can win with his youtube account, but the way he treats it makes it seems as twich it's his priority and youtube is just an easy buck, the comments are disable just to mess with the TIHYDPs people make, the likes/dislikes have no use so he doesn't give a fuck about them.
Extreme mood swings, pathological lying, refusal to apologize, inability to groom one's self, inability to take the slightest bit of criticism -- the same symptoms show up again and again whenever these types of people use the Internet. I swear, a new diagnosis called Internet personality disorder is going to be created in the future, mark my words.
These are symptoms of already existing personality disorders. Tbh, it wouldn't surprise me at all if the vast majority of people who become notorious on the internet have serious undiagnosed personality disorders.
Or, more likely, people were already like this, but now you're finally seeing them because of the internet.
It already called G.I.F.T.
It's just narcissism run wild. It's been incentivized in today's society on all levels. The internet has just put it in the spotlight, front and center. No need for a new diagnosis.
Well the question is also…is too much Internet the cause, or the effect, of the personality?
Wow, so this dude was always in the right place at the right time, but just could not stop self-sabotaging. Don't know whether to laugh or cry.
Just to set the record straight, Phil didn't get swatted. The police knocked on his door and asked if everything was ok, walked through his house and left. He played the victim and made it out like the cops broke down his door and held a gun to his head.
Johnny Zen What’s much worse is that he flat out blamed everyone who was making fun of him or criticizing his behavior for the incident. He literally claimed that the people who were making TIHYDP videos or mocking him in any form (even so much as casually bringing up horrible things he did in the past) were directly responsible for this “attempted murder”.
To be fair though, an asshole getting swatted doesn't justify the act no matter how peaceful it ended up.

- This past Thanksgiving, Phil had yet ANOTHER begathon, just like he did in 2017.
- For clarification, last year he begged his fans for money, claiming that DSPGaming wasn’t a business and had been dodging a business and occupation tax for years. Despite the fact that he was writing off electricity, video games, printer paper, etc. for taxes, he was shocked and blown away that he owed a lot of money and raised between $5k-$10k last year.
- Around this time, he moved his current girlfriend Kat in with him from across the country and claimed it cost a lot of money to do so.
-Fast forward to this year’s begathon; he now claims that the $10k he owed to taxes last year went into his CREDIT CARDS, and the $5k-$10k raised last year just vanished off the face of the earth.
- He began claiming that the REAL reason he was booted from Curse was trolls; his claim was that when he was released on July 20th, he was somehow important enough to warrant an, “off the record conference call,” where nothing was in writing. He went on to claim that despite dozens upon DOZENS of people being released from their partnership, Curse (just like machinima) LOVED him and his content (dumping anywhere between 30-50 ten min videos a day to his channel) and never wanted to get rid of him. His claim was his number of false flags was too much for Curse to handle as they had to go through each and every report. This is a bold faced lie. He claims that the cost of manpower to close his reports greatly outweighed the money he was bringing in. Again, he claims trolls were responsible, despite plenty of evidence existing that MANY channels were released.
- He claims that his life and his relationship were amazing; somehow, a young woman, not even 30 years old yet, is okay with being in a relationship where there is heavy financial debt, she’s forbidden from having any social media or internet footprint, is okay with working 8+ hours 5-6 days a week at a real job while her asshole lover is sitting on his ass playing video games for hours a day, etc. He ALSO claims that the financial strain has put the relationship, “on hold,” leading many to believe he wants his fans to pay for an engagement ring for Kat.
- In a particularly disgusting move, Phil claimed that his elderly parents want him to come home from Washington to Connecticut to see them. He claims that he can tell that something is wrong with his parents and their health but they haven’t said anything as to not make him worry... Mind you, his parents are in their 60s and his father is still working full time. He claims that he doesn’t know how much longer they’re going to live and despite them offering to pay his travel expenses, accommodations, rent a vehicle/use their own, etc. he simply CANNOT DO IT. His parents are (allegedly) dying and he can’t stop streaming! ...even though he took the day off before Thanksgiving and is taking the day off this Wednesday. Sure seems urgent!
- He proceeded to lay out his woes; despite making anywhere between $7k-$10k a month, Phil needs AN ADDITIONAL $16k by April. This is way more than he needed last year.
- He offered a few “solutions” to his problems; pay off taxes by taking out more loans (lol wut), refinance his gout mansion (though he would need to prove he is up to date on backed taxes for at least 2 years which I ain’t buying), and his main solution, the only one he’s interested in, he hopes that, “a miracle,” happens, like he lands an opportunity to make more money more quickly, that some GENEROUS FAN (hint hint) drops the money on him, etc.
- Mind you, he claims he can’t get a job because he’s already, “working 12 hours a day,” (which is laughable considering he barely streams 4-6 hours of gameplay, he has two 1+ hour prestreams where he pisses and moans about his financial problems and trolls, and takes multiple 15-30 minutes breaks each time he streams), he can’t sell the house because his, “office,” has soundproofing foam on the wall (???), he can’t move back to CT because it, “costs too much money,” etc.
- He has no solutions and proposed no changes, he’s simply using his fans as an atm, he still streams the same boring shit and ignores his chat unless they give him actual money, and has actually gotten MORE toxic since.
I... I just don’t understand this person. His ego is so big, SO BIG. A detractor named Tevin (who has drawn all of Phil’s ire as of late) restreams Phil’s streams as a way to counter inflated views on Phil’s actual stream. Phil is lucky to keep anywhere between 200-400 viewers at any given time, while Tevin brings anywhere between 1k-2k. Phil gets very angry about this and proclaims, “you ever notice how Tevin has sometimes 5x the viewers I do? And yet, somehow, I still make WAY more money! Let’s think about that for a second!” Less than 24 hours later... “guys, I’m really worried... My Twitch payment should’ve been here and I have no money left in my bank account... I need you to tip! I may have to wait another day or two til I get my money!”
He has absolutely no shame and deserves to lose everything. Even though his parents are only in their 60s, were in good enough health a year or two ago to paint rooms for Phil’s house, and even working full time, he claims they’re dying and he may never get to see them again. That. Is. LOW.
Burn in hell, Burnell.
You seem to have a very unhealthy obsession with this guy for some reason.
It'd be best for you if you just stop thinking about him my friend.

This just happened a few days ago and someone replied to the last comment I left last night. So I made an update because people need to know who this guy is and that he does NOT deserve your money. IM obsessed? You don’t know the half of it. Look up Snort Burnell and David Davidson on UA-cam or drgnkiller on Twitter. Me posting one comment is nothing compared to dozens of tweets and daily videos my friend.
@@JanoyCresvaZero - I don't even know who those people are, I'm just saying what difference is it going to make whether you keep up to date with what he's doing if it's just going to piss you off.
ron sae
It’s an opinion that took me maybe 20 minutes to type up. It’s not that serious. I’m not really angry, it doesn’t effect me, I just don’t take well to liars and thieves.
he did not go down a rabbit hole, he dug straight to HELL
There's Content Cop, putting the criminals out there so that they face justice. Then there's Down The Rabbit Hole, with complete psychoanalysis and investigation.
what did we do to deserve such beautiful UA-camrs :'(
Ayan Joe I think that Idubbz should do a content cop on DSP
@@deathraider3172 not worth the trouble
@D Zuke Or maybe there hasn't been a "Leafy" or "RiceGum" yet that he has to take care of.
Fredrik and Ian are the heroes we need, but who we don't deserve.
@D Zuke I think he's just grown up a little. He used to be super edgy and liked to criticize other youtubers cus that's easy money, but it doesn't earn you much respect.
Many content creators who faded into obscurity were hit by some kind of bad decision or a tragedy in their personal life taking a toll on their content. DarkSydePhil is one of the few whose poor status and personal struggles are entirely to blame on himself without having broken any laws or getting into legal trouble (with the exception of the S.W.A.T. incident, but that wasn't his fault). He's not a criminal, he's not someone who cheated his way into finding fame, he's just a loser in every sense of the word with an unconsciously massive ego who refuses to learn and take responsibility for his poor behavior, which is all the more sad when you realize that with such a long-lasting career, he had every opportunity to save himself if by simply apologizing.
He did nothing wrong, he did everything correct
@@isaywhateveriwantandyougot7421Eh idk Doug Walker then dik stroaking Phil imo
@@ajaxmaxbitchwhat did DSP do correct?
"I'm losing viewers because I'm just -too good- at videogames."
-darksydephil
i think he was saying hes losing viewers because hes got better at games and isnt raging as much and yeah plenty of people get viewers who just come to see the streamer rage
@@TWEAKLET I'd argue the opposite, I've never seen someone who needs their hand held in minecraft or any kids game
@@Rossoneri2 I don't know much about minecraft, but I saw in one of his streams he was filling a big hole on the ground with water from a river; Walking back and forth with a single bucket like a fucking idiot for a painful amount of time.
Of course while chat was telling him there's better ways to do it and he was bitching about money
2010s: phil was in bad financial debt
2019/2020+: phil is now in literal 500k worth of debt
He's free of the debt actually, dudes unstoppable.
@@ResoluteCoyote Any source on this? I can't find the court case.
He file for bankruptcy and doesn’t have to pay anything dudes unstoppable
@@ResoluteCoyote $13000 dollars of credit card debt was cleared as part of his bankruptcy declarance
@@donkiko6708 yeah but they dont just take away your debts. they sell off your assets and garnish your wages. do any of you guys know anything about bankruptcy?
So much has happened since this video, you should really do a part 2.
Yes please. So many story arcs.
It’s like watching a train wreck. It just gets worse and worse, yet you can’t look away.
@@MisterSchitt any where were I might get a summary of these events?
@@LOLquendoTV
Yeah, bump.
@@MisterSchitt Hahaha! The way you have listed the events, it almost seems like a manga series.
He's essentially every 10 year old with a bad temper tantrum playing video games. Except some 10 year olds can actually play with skill.
and 10 year olds are 10, this man is 42 and is just as childish.
