The good intentions were first so his and his mates could make money. I think he's creative and interesting, but bad taste in my mouth when I found out it's all "lies" or exploits or cheating. | ||

He was a great PvPer in wow and leveled like a maniac as soon as any expansion hit, he´s not the best gamer in the world but neither are any entertainers on youtube. This is kinda bullshit, but since you said "not the best gamer" I'll agree somewhat. He claims to be sickest guy to ever play wow, promotes it, never claims otherwise, posts video's about it, and treat it as fact. Kinda dissrespecting to the top gamers who do play wow. And I was playing wow actively when he got famous. I talked a bit to one of the guys who carried him. Hydra Hydra got annoyed at his egotism and sub-par play, left team with him shortly after migrating to Stormscale. Athene dropped down 30 places, then disbanded team, got "top of the top" players to play with him, and never got especially high. Ever, except for when he got some of the top paladins to play for him, then took credit. It's just lies and trolling and scam all the way. In poker he would sit at 10c tables and shove every hand since he had 100% rakeback, he would do it for days, so no excuses. It's deliberate and calculated. http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28/internet-poker/pokerstars-pro-chiren80-dumping-back-forth-vpps-829120/ | ||

They'd just sit and be a bit offended and confused, and he'd keep at it. Clown, clown. I like "fighting" against him, ever since I thought about. It's silly that people who know what's going on sit still and say nothing. Atleast sharing what I percieve to be the truth about someone. I wouldn't mind or hate if this was with good intentions, but I feel it's not. It's a scheme, to further their own cause. it's more of an insult to gamers if anything. I get pissed when hundred thousands of people think best player in a game I love and have loved for 12 years is Athene, when that/those tittles goes to people who's worked their ass off, for a very long time. Respect is earned, not giving randomly to a lying clown *raaaAaaaGgge pull hair!!* ps, this reminds me of a frustrating conversation I had to a christian | ||

(with the help of kiwikaki :D ) well, just saying athene is one of the gamer i respect the most Yes, athene is a charactere he made to reach more people but when hes playing for real, i guess hes an extremely serious gamer | ||

Your post is pointless and dismissive. A lot of the people trashing him in this thread need to do a little research on the guy. I'm not gonna watch his videos because not only it would just be waste of time, but also he does not deserve the attention. He is just catering to adolescent gamers who would jump on anything labelled "the new cool shit", he is not interesting or funny at all. | ||

Btw, what is the ACTUAL term for "trolling"? "pull a joke on someone?" "pranking?" what is it? Clever. | ||

If you watched some of his blogs when he's out of character, you can tell he's like the nicest guy out there. The crew has already said that it was really weird seeing him act like that for the first time because it was just not him, BUT they got plenty of attention for their multiple projects like IPower and multiple petitions for whatever. They are activists IRL and they need to get their message out there by any means and Athene being a troll is a way like another to get attention. Although, up to recently, they haven't done much except trolling around, I think their project together to the top is fundamentally a nice way to promote obscure gaming channels out there but it's just wrong to promote shitty stuff for the sake of promoting them. I'd agree with what you've said, he's a character in most of his videos. Despite that being really obvious and loads of vids of him not being Athene, people still don't get it. His character is made to get the reaction it does. If you hate the Athene character, that is fine, you are supposed to. If you can see Athene for what he is, and also look beyond the character a little, then you might start seeing something else. Not sure about the TTTT, but whatever. If it helps even a few people get the viewers they deserve (emphasis on deserve), then it can't be a bad thing. | ||
