==Controversies==
===GrowBux===
On September 25, 2017, Denis made a video about a website called Growbux, a website he created that gave users "free Robux" after installing an app.https://web.archive.org/web/20200506054853/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1NGtWKPxAQ This caused lots of controversy in the Roblox community. Many accused him of exploiting kids by making them download applications that could contain malware and spyware, some developers of popular Roblox games (like Alexnewtron the creator of MeepCity) even said that he violates Roblox's terms of services which has a rule not to provide free Robux through third-party websites, along with violating the COPPA guidelines (COPPA is a law that prevents websites from exploiting, scamming or collecting personal information from under 13s).https://twitter.com/Alexnewtron/status/912420764023889921 Denis has tried to deny the accusations, saying it's not a scam. He even called another person "ignorant" for being misinformed. This caused even more hatred for Denis. He eventually apologized and updated everything. 
==Disbanding of The Pals group==
In February 2019, Corl got into an argument with a fan of The Pals on Twitter and made disrespectful tweets towards the fan which caused him to recieve backlash. Corl's fans then blamed the fan for being the cause of the hate that Corl was receiving and made hurtful messages towards the fan which lead to her attempting suicide. Shortly after, Denis kicked Corl out of The Pals and abandoned their 11-year friendship. A few months later, Corl posted pictures of him holding a Mossberg shotgun, but was promptly deleted. Later, Denis announced that The Pals will be disbanding and all remaining members would work on their own channels. Denis, Sketch and Alex still remain active to this day, while Corl currently remains inactive. Sub remains active on Twitter but inactive on YouTube.
