==YouTube Channel==
===The lost deleted channel===
Roflgator originally had a YouTube channel prior to 2018 created before 2010 with E-sports related videos and him trolling in various games such as Second Life and Garry's Mod with millions of views. When converting the channel into a brand account the process failed due to a bug and was deleted. Contacting YouTube support he never got a response and has yet to recover any of his old videos.
===Current Content===
Roflgator's current content mainly revolves around his shenanigans in the social Virtual Reality game VRChat. Also running a community of like minded players he hosts near daily meet-ups where members of his community participate in improvised role-play.
His popularity saw a rise in March 2020 when xQcOW, HasanAbi, and Sodapoppin were invited to his bar by Pokelawls. Since summer 2020 his YouTube channel now publishes edited highlight video weekly. Before his rise in popularity video uploads were rare.
==Twitch==
His most played game for content being VRChat he occasionally remarks how unfortunately it is that this is the case, having a bittersweet relation to it and its developers. For a short time in Sept 2020 he was classified as a variety streamer for alternating to Minecraft, Among Us, and other popular games on the Twitch gaming platform.
Ever since his early days in VRChat in January 2018 (and still going) he often portrays the role of a troubled bar/night club owner where his focus is wing-manning and pairing visitors on dates or by hosting social games and game-shows. His livestream is often compared to that of a reality TV-show or a comedy sitcom. Occasionally other YouTubers or streamers are invited to stop by his bar for a good time in VR or participate in his hosted events.
His community of players are referred to as "The Gator Crew" and his community of viewers as the "Gatorboiz".
==Trivia==
*The bar where he hosts his daily lobbies in virtual reality named "The Gator Bar" or "The Golden Gator" has been recreated and reimagined at least 5 times since its inception in 2018.
*While not actually a furry, for using an alligator avatar in VRChat his community enjoys to tease him about it.
