Becouse he was toxic, it wasnt the first time and he should be perma banned. Also anyone who watches this guy, you are whats wrong with games and twitch.

I've never watched his twitch that I can think of, but I do, did, watch his YouTube videos. How do you know his twitch is so toxic? Do you watch it yourself? Taking in information BTW does not make someone bad, its what they do with that information. I take it you're for burning books then. There is a certain group of people famous for doing that btw.

On another topic

As to the comments on GGG being Orwellian, Fascist, etc. All of these falls under the Marxist philosophy. Yes governments can impose them, but the ideas are a philosophy. You don't have to be a government to be a communist, socialist, fascist, or Orwellian. All you have to do is believe and aspire those beliefs.

it's a bit radical

Just to set the record straight; there are POE players that agree to Chris his vision and there are others against it. Of course those against, will always be the loudest.

I think a lot could have been avoided if Harvest League mechanics were never implemented (huge mistake where they once again caved in to the reddit crowd for more deterministic crafting) and if mass juicing never became popular. Of course the idea to aqcuire as much currency as fast as possible is always present in any online game. Problem becomes when the entire game starts to revolve around it and streamers promoting it fully to their followers. And I only mention currency because due to Harvest no one really cares about rare drops anymore. People are used to make certain profits per hour and if GGG touches that, most will get upset as their current toys to do so, are taken away.

Meh, you only pay attention to those who you disagree with as being the loudest. Perhaps I think persons like yourself are the loudest. If anyone says something negative there is an army of cult of chris there to attack that person, and that is how I see it.

As for harvest, gutting harvest and deterministic crafting which is extremely hard and and takes a LOT of currency to pull off. If you kill that you kill off what has kept this game going at the level it has since Harvest was implemented.

You say no one cares about drops, but I could say if you had it your way no one would care about crafting. I always find if funny when someone thinks there position is the only right one. You think "of course" about negative feed back, and you think drops are what's important. Streamers are what promotes the game. PoM is one of the fist YouTubers I watched on PoE. Zizaran, Path of Matth, Big Ducks etc. Oh you probably want Big Ducks banned too because he's not happy about Kalandra. Of course that's just me being negative about your view of being negative at streamers. Of course those negative are always the loudest,

except when it's your negativity, then that's ok....plz

First all just because hes a partnered streamer they are not allowed to ban him for an opinion even US laws protect him.

Now if it was posted in game/here yeah they have rights.

However, because this was done on Twitch. they by law are not allowed to ban him Perma. which they did. they are however allowed to revoke him as a partner and strip anything that came with it.


as for Chris LOL...dude is the worst DEV to ever exist he has not learned anything in the last 5 leagues. continues to be toxic to people not siding on his vision...

guess what it's killing the game and guess what any balls GGG had to remove him were removed.


when you have donators in the hundreds of thousands dip you really need to rethink your actions.

but w/e funny how fast these last 2 leagues have died more streamers are finally waking up and leaving and making a stance. kinda good because GGG will lose so much more players .

the fact they banned him will only make a big chunk leave and target GGG which i support. sorry but POE lost the battle funny how chris said D3 trash/d4 will crash yet here POE is burning fast from 5 leagues.

Wasn't big fan of PoM, so I thought he was better than that.
The ban is totally justified, with that level of hate he spewed on twitch. Such a fiasco for him a streamer and I also respect him less now.
People are upset, angry and frustrated - that's ok, but don't bring this out in public in such a vulgar way. This wouldn't solve anything. Keep streamer's dignity. You lose control, you step over the line - you get punished for this, all's fair.
Also I am surprised he didn't get strike/ban from Twitch for this, as they are much MUCH more intolerable to any kind of verbal offence - be that genders, races or any other.

He has every right to slam GGG they completely killed an entire game with one change

entire game killed yet ExileCon sold out. Right.

Not that unexpected. There are definitely a few thousand people & whales that will take whatever GGG hands out.

Its their money.

good point.

i dont think it should be perma, but that kind of behaviour is childish and shouldnt be tolerated. it's a videogame. Matth is a respected guy in the community, watching him act like that made me feel gross knowing how many emulate that and take it to the extreme.
