Maxime started as a small YouTuber, but his videos criticizing other creators for their unethical behavior quickly gained popularity, often going viral. 
One of Maxime's most famous videos is where he exposed a member of the GTA V French community team called "Razmo," revealing that their pranks were fake and scripted. He demonstrated how they presented a negative image to the French content creation community, particularly since they were heavily influenced by the biggest GTA V French content creator, LaSalle. Maxime frequently produces videos titled "<YouTuber> et ses videos FAKE FAKE FAKE" where he presents strong evidence demonstrating that a particular YouTuber's videos are scripted and therefore fake.
== Notable videos ==
=== Machinima ===
Maxime gained notoriety for his September 2017 video titled "YouTube est cassé." In this video, he explained how his channel received two copyright strikes from Machinima because he criticized one of their partners, Mcskyz, for promoting drop shipping. However, he was able to have the strikes removed and Machinima never bothered his channel again.
=== CoD Forlan ===
Maxime has also produced videos exposing problematic content creators like CoD Forlan, who used people's depression and trauma to make views, created misleading clickbait thumbnails, and showed gore content in his videos. After doing fake iPhone X giveaways, CoD Forlan received a strike that prevented him from streaming for 90 days. Fellow YouTuber, LE ROI DES RATS, debunked all his fake giveaways, causing CoD Forlan's channel to be deleted from the platform.
=== GameMixTreize ===
In another video, Maxime exposed Abdel, better known online as GameMixTreize, for promoting a dropshipping website created by his brother. As a result of the video, the website went offline and has not been put back online. It appears that the domain is now on sale and can be purchased by anyone.
=== Pyrorca ===
Maxime also produced three videos discussing YouTuber Pyrorca, in which he alleged that the YouTuber had pedopornographic images on his PC and groomed minors on his Discord by creating a fake identity. Pyrorca denied the allegations in a response video. However, in early 2022, Pyrorca was arrested, his house was searched, and his IT devices were taken away. Maxime shared his theory that Pyrorca won't go to jail because there is not enough space in French prisons.
