XboxPlayz

Steven (born: ), better known online as XboxAddictionz (or XboxPlayz), is an American gaming creator on YouTube. He primarily focuses on trolling disrespectful or aggressive kids on Xbox (as well as his younger brother Jaden), and verses them in a variety of games such as Minecraft, Call of Duty, Fortnite, and Grand Theft Auto. He will occasionally team up with other YouTubers such as Sorra TV, CptVideoGames, and Master of Luck to trick people who they have already trolled in playing with them again. Occasionally, he does "Reinviting" videos, in which he contacts people he trolled in the past to see how they are doing, often 1 or 5 years later, and discuss their thoughts on the video and their reasons for things that happened in the video, with many of the kids having matured and/or gone through puberty since the video, some of them even having their own channels or TikToks.
==History & content==
XboxAddictionz joined YouTube on August 18, 2011. 
On September 25, 2012, he uploaded his first Minecraft video of him messing with his little brother Jaden (or Saltinnee14) in Minecraft.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upYp_In8T4k On January 23, 2014, he started his second channel, XboxPlayz, for behind the scenes videos, reactions, and reveals, which then the first video to XboxPlayz was published in March 2014, which is a timelapse build of a WWE arena in Minecraft.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2c-NKKsUCNs
===Collaborations===
He would continue to collaborate with other YouTubers as time went on, and often joined up with Master of Luck, CptVideoGames, Just Bee, Duck Voice, and Final Sorra (mainly the older brother). Most kids who'd been trolled by him would become famous in some sort of way and be messaged by Steven's fans, being notified of the video. Sometimes Steven re-invites said user in an amount of years, and talks to them about their experience post-video, any funny stories, and what they do now. Reveal videos are him or another person revealing to the user that they were recording and tell them about the channel.
===Trolling===
Steven would sometimes have different spins on videos, with different characters in "hacked worlds" such as Herobrine, Freddy Fazbear, Pennywise, and a "spooky horse". It is mostly him as said character, with host privileges from the legacy console versions of Minecraft. It's unknown if he will do this again. Sometimes when he collaborates with Final Sorra, he will often bring up a "grandpa" voice, where Steven tries to convince younger users that his grandpa just got an Xbox, or is old and trying to socialize. Sometimes he will disguise under different usernames to trick the participants into thinking he is someone else.
He also plays various other games, and trolls people in Call of Duty, Fortnite, and Grand Theft Auto Online. He will often troll the users in the video in matches, or 1v1 battles.
===Termination===
On December 5, 2019, XboxAddictionz was terminated from YouTube due to "multiple or severe violations of YouTube's policy prohibiting content designed to harass, bully or threaten". There was no warning, or any active strikes on the channel, it just ended up being terminated that day. On Twitter, XboxAddictionz tweeted about the situation, notifying people of the problem.
===Post-termination===
Since then, he has moved his content over to his 2nd channel, XboxPlayz, and sometimes reuploads XboxAddictionz videos on there but some of the scenes that are considered bullying and harassing have been removed (sometimes making it a funny moment) with the XboxAddictionz branding removed and replaced with XboxPlayz. He also reuploaded some of his old videos on XboxAddictionz2, though this could also be someone else reuploading the videos. 
He also reuploaded all of his videos on Patreon, which can be found here, containing all his videos and exclusive Patreon content.
==Trivia== 
*His little brother was born on April 19, 2005. Jaden (or Saltinnee14) was the one who helped jumpstart Steven's YouTube career, being his first and potentially most famous trolling victim. His brother would be 19 today.
*A long-running gag on his videos is that he will ask for extremely low like goals, such as 11, 21, 39, 3, or some other random extremely low number compared to other YouTubers. Oftentimes the number will be related to a meme of some sort, such as 21, 420, or 69, with the meme being played as the number is shown on screen. Sometimes he will give the low number and then say "it might be a bit too high," or "I know we can do it." This is likely a form of sarcasm.
*He has had three videos animated into short videos by Ricky St Jones, who works for Smashbits Animations.
**He and the other person he collaborates with are often drawn as a white and black sheep together.
*He has a list of running gags on the channel:
**His pet cat often coming and messing with Steven's equipment.
**His pet grasshopper Lenny.
**A fake gun in Call of Duty: Black Ops III named the potato gun, which has often been used against younger Final Sorra.
**Mentions of his grandpa or grandma occasionally.
**Having kids in the video occasionally rap to a beat with random and sometimes vulgar lyrics.
**He will usually mention characters from the Nickelodeon show Spongebob Squarepants.
**Usually in Minecraft videos, he will have a contest with the kid to build pixel art of a random character.
***He will also build houses made of dirt and "fix" stuff in creative with dirt.
**Sometimes when the kid is telling a story, he will animate it in some way in Photoshop with stock images.
**Occasionally, when a kid says "jesus christ" or "jesus" in frustration or shock, an image of the parody religious icon Buddy Christ will appear.
*Steven had a husky named Luke, who passed away around June 20, 2024.https://twitter.com/XboxAddictionz/status/1803928411443708381
