    I’ve forgotten who but I know one of their content creators was accused of either grooming or at least having inappropriate conversations with a or potentially multiple minors.

    James Ryan Haywood did some penis crimes at Rooster Teeth conventions. Basically a dozen variations on “not technically rape.” With fans, of questionable age, on the company dime. As soon as credible accusations arose, his ass was gone, and the rest of Achievement Hunter had exactly one emotional-and-drunk livestream to say they were never going to acknowledge him for the rest of their lives.

    His whole personality on-camera and in-game turns out to be really close to how he sincerely acts and thinks. He was not playing a heel.

      I had completely forgotten how bad it was. I’ll edit my previous comment to fix that error.

        I don’t think an edit was necessary, but if you’re gonna edit it, he committed sexual assault against multiple probably-legal-at-the-time fans.
