Dude is getting shit on in his latest video...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlivuTKypD4
Im just a tad skeptical, youtubers and twich people have been getting away with shady shit for years, public and private.Yeah, these guys are going to get sued at the least and probably will face criminal charges.
Will be hard for them to argue that it's not a gambling site and the skins aren't worth money when they're talking about how much money they "won" in the video.
Im starting a new Internet business. I don't have any money for advertising, so I need publicity. Can I tell people that if they say good things about my business in online reviews, Ill give them a discount on items they buy through my website?
Its not a good idea. Endorsements must reflect the honest opinions or experiences of the endorser, and your plan could cause people to make up positive reviews even if theyve never done business with you. However, its okay to invite people to post reviews of your business after theyve actually used your products or services. If youre offering them something of value in return for these reviews, tell them in advance that they should disclose what they received from you.
Is it just me or have the last few months been revelation after revelation of well-known YouTube personalities turning out to be grade-A assholes?

Speaking as a licensed attorney... these dudes need to speak to a lawyer ASAP.
I sense a businees oportunity, Quick, respond to them on twitter.
Isn't this what guys suing Valve for tacitly enabling that everyone was laughing at and calling an idiot? But when it's against youtube trash everyones cheering finally, hang them high?
This shit needs to blow up. Gaming media needs to jump on this. This is huge, it's shady and illegal.
He has to at least realize it's shady if not expressly against the law.
People think cosmetics in Overwatch are something, but it's this shit that actually disturbs me.
Out of curiosity do Gamblers on the site have a potential class action here? Time to use some of that H3H3 lawyer money.
I wonder if this will pop up on Kotaku and IGN

I hope Press Sneak Fuck is monitoring this thread. IMO Jason is the best at this stuff.
Money can change people, and YouTube fame is strange because it's hard to say how long it will last for anyone involved.
m0E (a popular csgo personality) recently got exposed for colluding with a gambling site called csgodiamonds. Basically, as I understand it, the site's admin would tell m0E about his rolls ahead of time, meaning he knew when to bet big and make a spectacle out of everything for his twitch audience. Thorin has a really good video about it in which he drudges through all the facts and events if anyone is interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sO22YayYqYE (skip to 1:01:58 for the tldr)
Shady things be happenin' in the scene!frickin' NA
Some people use their hands a lot when they speak, but I haven't seen anyone do it with their eyebrows until now. I'm hypnotized by how animated he is when speaking.

I can't believe how shady all this shit is though, and I really hope something is done about this. I have no sympathy for a youtuber who is undoubtedly trying to exploit his young audience by driving traffic to another operation he owns without explicitly stating the conflict of interest. It's really gross watching him try to act like the bigger person in his responses, when he knows damn well what he was doing all along.
That's the thing though. If I were a content creator, which I'd love to be, I wouldn't do it for the money. I'd just do it because I want to play a video game, and let people watch if they want.
The money would be a nice benefit, but I don't think I'd want to change how I think about playing games, or what I play, just because it may give me more money from ad revenue.
Even if I were to get famous, and lets say dropped from, I dunno, 250K subs to like 3,000, I'd still want to keep doing what I was doing. The passion of sharing opinions of games and allowing others to watch me play fueling my videos.
Maybe I'm just weird. Lol

One small YouTube who tried to expose them called eight_thoughts and made a video. Guess what these two cretins did?
@THoG_Empire they tried to take my channel down, and got me strikes on videos leaving me off youtube with a 2 weeks ban.
I guess they love to pick on small youtubers.

Got a link for that I'm interested.
Oh, damn, now I feel like an ass! Yeah, I've never watched him before; really interesting to watch that though, makes him seem way more expressive.He has tourettes. Lol. It's his "tick" (I think that's what it's called?).
Don't expect you to know that, since it seems to be your first video, just informing.
Man I really hope he was tampering the odds too - is this actually legally classed as gambling? I presume not and if not what is it?
