as said he's a very skilled minecraft player and he was never an outwardly unpleasant person he wasn't overtly bigoted and although we'll discuss some curious takes in due course there was no obvious reason to hate him having also wasn't the most diplomatic person and he definitely had a very competitive streak to him with a dashing assault on the side now i don't think his attitude was particularly exceptional as a matter of fact i think him and i are quite similar in that regard the difference is in spite of the fact that i am a massive gamer i don't ground my persona in playing online games nor do i think i have an audience who would take my in-game passion particularly seriously because you know you really shouldn't stands on the other hand can be very serious and there are plenty of reasons for this partly because of who they are they may be young they may re-tone differently or they may just want to show their commitment to their beloved creator there are people in an array of fandoms who vie for the approval of their heroes to even receive moments of recognition for their devotion to that icon that leads people to actions that may not necessarily be viewed as healthy or productive to the world around them or other people in pursuit of a twitter reply plenty of studies published have documented traits exhibited by those who engage in celebrity worship of any kind on one hand you'll have people who are a bit more connected to reality on the other you'll have people who believe that if these celebrities saw them in a restaurant they'd come and sit down for a chant many want to believe that now as noted celebrities often have limited scope acknowledging public support rather than a few generalized statements about how much they love you guys i discuss that spectrum which many youtubers occupy and although some certainly express affection for their devotees many still maintain a professional distance dream wasn't of that persuasion he'd always conveyed gratitude to those he felt responsible for his success and that definitely encompassed many within the stan community he was also just extremely active and interactive on twitter which enabled plenty of positive exchanges with his supporters he'd engage with them make them feel valued wanted part of a greater movement and for the earlier part his time the spotlight was quite blissful drew's relationship with his audience was tight-knit and for every positive interaction they had he gave people more reasons to support him he made it a rewarding experience to the average fan there were a lot of perceptible benefits to standing dream pair this with the natural yet impressive growth of this channel and it seemed like a recipe for mutual success was brewing however it's a two-sided coin because although dream was hot PROFANITY_TOKEN and he kind of knew he was the problem is that when that's undermined or challenged it can regularly cause an emotional response now that emotional response from someone like dream wouldn't inherently have any repercussions in fact amongst friends it can often be laughed off the problem is that when you involve people who don't have that context nor that necessary understanding of how to handle situations a ripple effect occurs where any sort of negativity is amplified because those more devoted want their commitment to go unparalleled especially when dealing with drama but so far we hadn't really had any of that let's introduce it then
