Did Max apologize? I looked on his twitter and youtube channel and didn't see anything.
I'm honestly stunned at how many GAFers (who are now banned) don't have an issue with this. You don't just say this word on accident unless you are a racist prick. Language like this shouldn't be tolerated anywhere, especially on GAF.
Not a good look. I popped in a few times last night took look at For Honor. Everytime he'd do that execution he'd make up some weird combination of words to call it. Could be it was just an unfortunate accident since he was just kinda spewing random nonsensical words. Though if that was the case I'm surprised he didn't instantly go "oh shit" and apologize. Maybe he did, but clip doesn't show it. Looks more like he just kinda swept it under the rug hoping no one would notice. I'm going to guess chat's response didn't help things either.
Goddamn at this graveyard...
Hope Max apologizes for this. Seems like a genuinely good dude otherwise; would be awful for him to not confront this.
EDIT: Missed a post above linking to a tweet. Acknowledging it is a start.
Atleast he came clean, but i would like to see a real apology. And what does he mean by "ninja squad" because if he's using ninja like i think he is he fucked up again.He just posted this about 20 minutes ago his previous tweets are discussing the issue in more detail

what was he even trying to say? it honestly sounds like he was rhyming a bunch of words and said it by accident because it was just a random rhyming sound
not that he actually used the slur by accident
Earlier he also tweeted what more or less equates to an apology, stating he was seeking forgiveness from some squad of his. He also responded to someone saying it wasn't a big deal by saying he's still disappointed in himself.Goddamn at this graveyard...

That graveyard, wow. Can't say you guys didn't deserve it. Since some were temps, hopefully you guys can collect yourself and realize why what you did wasn't cool.
The 'Chinda Chanka(?) Ninja Dagger'? I assume a weapon in the game that he unlocked.
It just seems like Ninja and Dagger got mixed up. Or it could have been the word before Ninja that got mixed up. I don't know if it's Chanka, or Chander or something like that.
He's basically been apologizing for it on his twitter for a couple hours. Said it was accidentally a mash up of Ginger and Ninja and it was his first time saying it and that it mortified him
Everything has a ridiculous name.
Mix up between Ginger and Ninja?
Sounds like maximum damage control
Just for those people who are saying he needs to address it, here are a few of his tweets.
"Last night I combined the word Ginger and Ninja in a furious rhyming of words to horrible resorts. Literally shocked me after I said it."
"Had to review the footage of the stream this morning and yep,totally said it. Need forgiveness from the NinjaSquad @INFINITE_SGE @unrooolie"
"After watching the video, I'm still disappointing. Was a slip but was still the first time I've ever said the word."
"Coming clean. Today I promise to never again do rapid name rhyming ever again. My NinjaSquad membership, revoked..."
"@lKzeroll @GeoffTheHero It was, but just the shock/feeling of being accused of being a racist hurts. Feelsbadman."
I thought he wanted to say Ninja Dagger and confused the words
Atleast he came clean, but i would like to see a real apology. And what does he mean by "ninja squad" because if he's using ninja like i think he is he fucked up again.
What is the "Ninja Squad?"
I could go on to talk about myself but this channel isn't about that. This channel is about YOU & the community that we are all apart of! See, ever since online gaming was introduced I saw the potential for something greater. The potential to play videogames with my friends no matter where we were. To enjoy the good times & experience the fun and excitement of playing the games together!
But then twitch came along and made the possibilities endless! Now I get the chance to hangout & play even more games with YOU! I get to meet some of the greatest people in the chat & sometimes in person! I've been fortunate enough to have a stream that consists of some of the most talented, coolest, kind, funny, supportive, and all around amazing group of individuals I could ever come across, and even though I'm the guy in front of the camera, I'm just happy to be apart of it all!
The "Ninja Squad" is more than just a community, we are a clan that's here to spread love, good vibes, and get our game on!! So at the end of the day, I want you to remember, it doesn't matter what games you play, all that matters is the people you enjoy spending time with. Now lets have some fun! ^_^

Overall it seems like a pretty fair response to something that fairly deserved a response in the first place.
You have nothing to apologize for because there wasn't even a hint of mal intent in that clip I just watched. Slip of the tongue, completely innocent.Hey guys. I'd like to post this clip for clarity, as my conscience won't let me do otherwise.

After tongue twisting words multiple times throughout the stream, I said something I literally didn't believe I said until after I reviewed the footage in the morning. I was woken this morning to several people telling me that Neogaf and Reddit are blasting what I said and it's blowing up.
It was absolutely not my intention to use this word. It's disgusting, filthy and I've never intentionally used it ever in my life. Deeply sorry to anyone who thinks ill of me after this, as I've wanted nothing but to create an environment on Youtube and Twitch of kind-hearted people who I try to give back too just as much as they've given to me. The accusations coming my direction is something I've never had to deal with before, and it honestly one of the worst feelings I can remember. Especially when everything about my life, family and friends is the exact opposite of what the word represents.
I'll let the mods decide what to do with this thread. I can't ignore what I accidentally said, but I'd prefer not to be reminded of it every-time I visit the forum I've been a part of for almost a decade.
Wow, I expected better from GAF members. First page comments seem to straight out of YouTube comments and Twitch chat. I guess social topics such as this, no matter the forum, will always bring out the worst out of people.
Ok Cool.
This had me laughing.Aiyyo Mahvel
