RIP H to the usky Husky. look at the forum and look at how many replies this thread has. that's how it's relevant. kind of explains itself? people liked husky, so he matters to them. | ||

I don't understand this sort of Entitled Fan mentality. Just because somebody produces content you enjoy does not obligate them in anyway to keep you updated about their personal life, or choices. Edit: Actually re-reading this post I think I fell for a troll since they guy here is saying he didn't care about Husky anyways. | ||

Why is there so much hate towards iBleeedOrange in particular when the r/starcraft mod team is pretty expansive? Is it because he's a Reddit power user that's in control of a lot of subreddits? | ||

This kind of thinking is what's wrong with this community. To think that someone who dedicated years of his life to starcraft without getting much back from the community has to be grateful for the people he entertains with his content is just outright ridicolous. | ||

Sad news. Closing a channel makes no sense, unless he really wanted to "cleanse" his past or due to legal issues. He will have his reasons, I guess. | ||

I definitely looked forward to all his new content back when he was releasing it. Interesting and sad that he chose to remove it. I wonder why? Yeah, it's only natural to be curious when suddenly years of content is no longer visible. I'm sure he has his reasons and above all wish him well and hope he's in good spirits. | ||

That he is gone without a farewell - yeah, stuff happens and he probably did what is good for him and I really wish that this happy guy can do something that keeps him being happy. But taking his videos offline... that really hurts. He is a big part of SC2-history and without his content being there to refer on it... this is kind of taking away a part of the identity of the SC2-community  | ||

Yes he was the victim of some negativity but he just dealt with it like a champ. Him getting rid of his channel shows a level of maturity which a comparable but contemporary StarCraft related YouTuber like Destiny (who has decided to make a career uploading political debates with randos) will never achieve. Best of luck to Husky. | ||

The community treated him like garbage and he got out at the first good opportunity. Good man. i don't remember the commuity treating husky like garbage, but i remember them shitting on JP and totla biscuit so not surprised. disgusting toxic useless basement dwellers. funny thing is now that sc2 is on critical life support most of them probably don't even post here anymore. they're probably shitting all over lol casters or something the hypothesis of said basement dwellers trying to find something offensive said in his countless content to nail him makes perfect sense as well. SJW - useless to society and not contributing anything and then blame society for not having a job, then tries to drag everyone else down by getting them fired from their job. i do remember orb. he said stupid things, but here comes the witch mob to attack and destroy. and like easily distracted peasants they went on to the next outrage of the week and completely forgot about him i miss husky and also painuser/HD (when they comboed together on IGN channel) and dj wheat and JP and all their sc2 content. listening to them brought me happiness and brings me back to when i was still in my 20s. a carefree and happy time. i occasionally still listen and watch old content and derive enjoyment from it. i didn't care what their rating was. very sad that husky has removed all his vids. GOOD JOB SJWS. GOOD JOB | ||

I don't understand how anyone can spend years making content and have it as a full time job, but have no desire to tell their thousands of fans that they are not going to make that content anymore, it just seems weird. And from a practical perspective i bet Husky still gets daily or weekly messages asking whether he is coming back to SC2, he could have saved himself a lot of time simply by putting out a short message saying he is moving on the other things. | ||

Please consider that being in the public eye is rarely a totally enjoyable experience. Anytime someone makes a name for themselves anywhere on the internet they open themselves up to the best and the worst sides of Fan culture. People by and large are usually pretty kind and supportive, however the bad apples tend to make themselves stand out. Now I have no idea if that is the case here, but my point is that neither do you. It's simply not fair to assume much of anything about the situation others are in. Then you also have to consider that it is everybodies choice to live how they want. Maybe Husky decided he just didn't want to be in the public eye any longer. He could have made some announcement about this, yes, but that would generate a new wave of attention. Perhaps, he simply preferred to let peoples focus move on and fade away. Sorry, I don't know why this issue is bugging me and I am partially just playing devils advocate. However I just find this mindset of Fans to be very short-sighted, not thought out, and to be perfectly frank it is just selfish to think that you are owed anything by people who produce content for entertainment. Though there is a pretty large debate to be had here about this topic, I am going to stop there as I don't think the larger topic has any bearing on this instance. | ||
