I still can't get over the fact that DSP talks to his dents like he is their demented project manager. He really has sunk into his own delusional bubble.
I find this situation so funny and strange. Because of weirdos like OnlyIceCoffee in Phil's audience, him getting 550 memberships donated by one guy to less than 50 unironic viewers is actually possible. And because he deep down knows this and he's so insecure about his viewers having these weird agendas for supporting him, he can't really say what he wants to say. Moments like this show how DarksydePhil really is a puppet on a string. And he's strung up by the system of his own design of how he conditioned his whales to support him.
@SoFarSoGoodSoWhat14 Even if OIC is donating with "good" intentions, he's still fucking up the guy's life. If OIC didn't exist, Phil would have a year or two of actual job experience under his belt by now.
Since these memberships ARE legit, people need to keep doing this. Most of his dents are accepting gifted subs. If his channel is flooded with gifted subs every month the debts will take whatever pops up. Eventually I’d guess more than half of his 500* “real” members will have inadvertently taken one of the cheap foreign memberships.
lol I just went to his stream and almost every single viewer has a membership. I said, “man, Phil is doing awesome! I was considering buying a membership but it seems like Phil already has plenty!”
2:41 is literally perfect, if he just stayed quiet about all the member bombs and no money that he made off of them, nobody would really know or care. The only reason this is a "big deal" is because phil made it a big deal and talked about it constantly.
People do things specifically to fuck with DSP and every single time without fail he gives them an entire dedicated 30 minute segment in his prestream and yet to this day he wonders why they don't stop.
I love when people tell him to stop giving the trolls attention and he claims he already is or is trying, but then he feels the need to go into detail every time about what they're doing and how they ruined his life. It's bad enough that several people, real or fake, told him in the suggestion box to stop
Time stamps on DSP’s stream if you want to report his scams: 48:24 - DSP says he’s going to ignore foreign currency donations and memberships. 50:06 - DSP says he’s going to change his membership total from ~1,100 members to ~550 members because he’s not getting paid. When, in fact, DSP did get paid for those memberships.
I work on the front end at a grocery store. We have a regular customer who always comes in and rambles to our customer service people about whatever is bothering her that day. Most of the time it has to do with her bank "ignoring" her or how her debit card isn't working still. She reminds me so much of Phil it's uncanny. He also probably uses the motorized grocery scooters at stores as well
My favorite part of this was his whole, "No one is talking about this 'exploit' but I'm going to spread the word!", even though it's directly against his best interest to inform more people that this is a thing.
3:12 Phil is right here. His story IS a cautionary tale. But not in the way he thinks. If you're going to attempt to create content on this or ANY platform, take EVERYTHING Phil does and do the exact opposite. While that's not a guarantee of success, you'll have a much better chance of it than you will being like Phil. And, to prevent myself from spamming comments, as I've seen where this leads, I feel that Phil's solution is bannable. It just feels like some kind of a violation. He's basically threatening to ban people just for CONTRIBUTING in foreign currency. That smacks of racism and bias, and it's something I think YT needs to investigate.
Honestly the only reason Phil's way worked (in that he's still living in his house) is because he was fortunate enough to get in early and make a name for himself early. He's gotten his devoted audience through that. Anyone else like him would fail today, and Phil's support has been waning for a while because that factor has long since gone. All that's left is those who are in too deep
4:30 Phil less than 3 days ago: "The gifted members are to help the streamer. Whether you accept them or not, I should get paid for them all." Sure sounds like it's for the community 😂
Oh, an entire country has seen the robust and meaningful khantent of the Fill and declared war on him. Now if we could just get more countries on board, 2024 season of our favourite show should top '23. World War Fill. Sound good? Sounds good to me!
So to paraphrase: 'This isn't a problem for me, but imagine, oh God, just imagine if this were some smaller channel that needs all the money it can get. Boy am I glad I'm not THAT kind of channel, that would be catastrophic.' About 20 minutes later: 'What you guys don't understand is that I make my living doing this, this is my only source of income. So """fake memberships""" are a catastrophic exploit.' What is it then, DSP? I'm getting mixed messages here...
His research included someone reaching out behind the scenes and sending him all of the information regarding his issue. If this were school, he would have been slammed for plagiarism. Taking credit for the group project.
I'm from Argentina, and I must say. Lmao. Worth! I can't see someone from here ever spending a single dollar to troll DSP, but that's hilarious. I'm loving how you're also calling out his "fans" they're losers in the same delusional loop as DSP, they don't deserve respect.
This whole "member audit" is infinitely more hilarious when you remember that propping up those paintings in his background are PS5 and XB console boxes.
"My memberships cost $3.99 each and this person bought 400 members in two days essentially just spent... Think about how much money they spent... That's a lot of money..." Dude seriously walked right into an easy 4x4 and couldn't handle it. All he needed was the number 16 and then from there you just add two zeros.... Approximately 1,600 dollars. That was all he needed to answer satisfactorily. Phil Burnell, CPA.
That was the short begment. I couldnt sleep one night so I transcribed the REAL begment (slept like a baby after, dont judge me) So ways you can support the stream: Engagement -liking the video -liking the stream -leaving comments on the video -talking on the stream Superchat Supersticker Superthanks: -direct through youtube -guaranteed shout out in the comments! Memberships (OBVIOUSLY) -absolutely important things -way to support the channel and keep it ongoing -phil appreciates members -especially, those who gift members Member Benefits: -Chat crown badge -ignoring slow mode rules -talk as much as you want -access to a RIDICULOUS amount of emotes because of the amount of members we used to have -priority for special events Ex: for the christmas event the members exclusively will get to choose a game collectively -TONS of power of Phil’s stream! So: please consider becoming a member for the power you receive over the content and the interactivity you receive. So consider becoming a member or gifting members. Note: there may be low stream viewers compared to member numbers This is easily explained; Phil has viewers that do not watch live (THOUSANDS daily) who watch a variety of games You need to understand, Phil is different from other content creators. This doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out. 2 streams/day for different audiences. Plus: 3-4 games of variety at any given time Plus: on demand audience So, you have no point (not directed at anyone in particular) Oh and: *TIPS* Great to support the content for 2 reasons -immediate to Phil’s paypal, can be used for a bill, grocery, going out to dinner. Getting something right away instead of a debate. -Also, has less of your tip removed from a middle man if you donate through paypal via tip as opposed to other method (ex: RU-vid Superchat or supersticker which is neither immediate due to monthly payout and receives cut taken out for RU-vid) Typically with paypal this gives Phil move of a cut. So to incentivize this there are tip levels and rewards.
Phil: “I found a bug that could break RU-vid.” Phil in the Past: “Yeah I tried taking a computer science class back in the late 90s/early 00’s,” (whenever the fuck he was in college), “and it was too complicated for me.” … I’m calling him a liar.
Considering the economy of Argentina is in the shitter, a membership for $0.25 seems right, because their currency is borderline worthless. But Phil, the valedictorian can't figure that out of research it without pignosis being applied.
i remember phil screeching about how bad it was for his channel that youtube didnt implement gifted memberships the way they did at twitch..... he finally gets gifted memberships, another finger on the monkey paw curls, and he starts screeching about how when people gift memberships he never sees the money for weeks.... now people are exploiting those very gifted memberships to extract even more rant energy, just amazing to watch
Argie here. Regional pricing is actually great, you get, in volume, a decent amount from region where you would actually make no business or lose it to piracy. Problem for us is when first worldlers who think its unfair to them (and the fact our money is worth less with the same education/jobs/hours by lottery of birth is a ok because they won it) use vpns causing a loss of sales in the territories that fund the games/products and it results in us getting priced out of our own regional stores. The price increses in Argentinian Steam made so many turn back to piracy because people descended on our store en masse
I like your content because you hit every point that goes through my head. So many detractors just go ad hominem, but you logically dismantle everything Phil says. Good shit.
I love that the chat is included because you can really see what's happening while he's doing stuff like this. 99% of his chat is all larpers, and it's so interesting to see him look over - obviously see that - and continue running his mouth like anybody actually cares about what he's saying
Imagine thinking that Alphabet Corp. A 2T dollar entity with a legal department the size of a football team would have a hard time defending themselves in a lawsuit over regional pricing... Amazing.
DSP really never heard of "if it's too good to be true, it most likely is." But I also can't believe (OK, I can, but still) that he never heard of this VPN tactic to buy stuff cheaper elsewhere before. As a business owner, you have to be aware of these things.
I wish he talked that fast. Holy shit. That is so much more digestible! 🤣🤣🤣 Actually, like 85% of the lolcows require 1.25x - 1.50x to relieve that uncanny feeling of regardment. 😅
He 100% spent money. He didn't have an anticipation of getting those memberships are normal. Everyday style person would have just waited till the money shows up or not
While giving money to him makes you a dent, there’s something to be said that they got him to spend the US price equivalent in WWE Champions. DSP spends $400 but receives $25. That’s why he’s so angry when he says he’s subtracting 500 members.
As a non-American I find really impresive the ability of dsp to think that other all people live like him. If he thinks one way, literally all the world should think like him. It's like, where I´m living a small mx state, a 60-dollar meal for you is 4 nice "once in a week date with my family (gf)". Also, I liked your take, I think you covered all the things, like he is getting paid, maybe less, but paid non the less.
Phil insisting YT breaking the law and would lose in court, basically an infinite money hack, yet he’s not retaining a lawyer? Weird. Almost seems like maybe he doesn’t even believe it himself …
Argentina 🇦🇷 is a detractor hahahav🤣🤣🤣. Besides a DSP dent wasn’t even able to give away free memberships because Phil doesn’t have viewers to give em away to. Lmfao now that some hilarious shit 🤣
25:47 oh shit, I know you've mentioned it a couple times but I can't remember the guys name. But the new sandwich pic is some nice stuff. Really digging the ravens lil chef hat lol If you see this, artist guy, you've made my day
"As you know...I don't do product placements, or advertisements" **2 minutes later** "So a VPN can protect you, and allow you to mask your IP address..."
In this episode, Phil fails to learn about purchasing power parity... Hell, if he were smart he could set a vpn himself and get more hogan pulls per dollar!
I don't think DSP will ever mention your channel or acknowledge that it exists, even if he's aware of it -- which he has to be. And here's why I say that... I haven't really explored too many detractor channels, but from what I've seen yours stands out. I haven't seen anyone else break DSP down the way you do. You go into detail and you're truthful and you're fair. That's why I keep coming back to your content, to be very honest. And, lot of the people who comment on your videos... it's not just me doing this... I mean, of course we loathe DSP and talk trash about him... but we often have a degree of empathy for him. We're just disgusted by his self-absorbsion and entitlement, right? Of course. But this community isn't pure hate. The short version is that engaging with your content would require DSP to do some real introspection and take personal responsibility. He won't, he can't do that. AND. If I've misrepresented other detractor content makers, my apologies to you. But what I said is *my* experience.
Can't remember which one was but on one of this rant segments about the members he straight up says "I DON'T CARE IF THE PERSON GETS/USES THE MEMBERSHIP!-" and I'm sure he switched gears quickly to not say "-I WANT THE MONEY!"
Alright... i hate giving THE GUY money of any denomination. But holy crap, as angry as he is? Totally worth the 25 bucks (17.50 to Phil) . lol dude is slamming his hands into the desk and ranting like Alex Jones lol
I wouldn't be surprised if Phil himself tried to "exploit" (his new favorite word), the system and bought himself the memberships. Then when he found it it wasn't going to work he bailed on the scam.
You mean he would buy them for 0,5$ and then thought he get 3$ from RU-vid? Stupid enough to be him but this is also the guy that wont use any free streaming service and pays for a subscription instead.
24:15 - "....If this starts happening en masse to tons of RU-vidrs..." DSP seems to not realize the reason why no one else is complaining. It's because other RU-vidr's subs/viewers are HAPPY WITH THE CONTENT from their preferred RU-vidr, and don't need to pull some VPN technique to avoid giving them money, they happily pay the RU-vidr, because they like what said RU-vidr provides. So therefore, no lawsuit of any kind will come about. But of course, Phil being Phil, doesn't provide a good enough product to warrant any normal person paying him money, so he ends up being the only person affected by it.
Also the idea that Dave could possibly find a bug and replicate it no problem is beyond belief. And his rant that he has for any site devs / grad students is hilarious. His insecurity of having a BUSINESS degree is showing.
My conspiracy theory is that Nikita will wait for big drops in memberships and will do this again. Only a small group is willing to spend money on something as useless as a DSP membership. Phil can’t prevent this and also gifted viewers cannot be returned, his best strategy to s to remove the members goal and focus on the tips goal
