Why is this guy still around after bathroom?

Huh?

If I recall correctly, he filmed some people in a bathroom without their consent

rigatti,
@rigatti@lemmy.world avatar

Oh. Yeah fuck this guy.

aStonedSanta,

Pretty sure that entire thing was accidental. Not that it makes the situation any better.

AmbiguousProps,
@AmbiguousProps@lemmy.today avatar

Well, other than just having a phone in your pocket and mistakenly hitting record, I’m not sure how it could be accidental.

aStonedSanta,

He was live streaming at a venue and went to pee and forgot to turn off his camera feed iirc.

missphant,

He streamed inside a public bathroom at E3. Then there’s also the thing where he cheated on his wife. I don’t know why people are so drawn to online personalities who prove over and over again they’re bad people with no intention to change.

Man I’m still trying to get one part for a gun that only spawns in a certain kind of weekly mission.

I log on, see that mission isn’t available, log off. Such engage, much gameplay.

When you act erratic like that, you got caught. If you were innocent of even intention no long winded explanation of “they want me to disappear” would be necessary as the messages wouldnt even exist. The dildo of consequences has arrived for Guy Beahm.

Aurix,

The great thing with your logic is no matter what he does he is guilty for you anyways. Great logic.

4am,

Man, he admitted he was guilty.

Holyginz,

Dude, he said he was guilty. The fuck are you even trying to say.

Aurix,

It is the pedohile predator messages that get me, when we talk about text flirting with a 17 year old. That is just not the scale of an issue people blow it out to be. People are like a rape-murder case almost happened. It is beyond ridicolous.

Holyginz,

It actually is a big deal. You really need to take some time to think it through to understand that. Either that or you are a troll and I’m just wasting my time right now 🤷‍♂️

imPastaSyndrome,

Yeah it would’ve just been rape of a minor, can’t prove he wanted to murder her!

Aurix,

I can’t believe somebody would type this for serious. First the jump between talking over text to rape is quite a long line in between. It is like us two disagreeing and me murdering you. And rape means non-consensual sexual intercourse. And given the age of 17 years, even if they would have consented, it wouldn’t be rape, as the person has enough emotional and sexual maturity to understand what it means. Now, it might be not legal in some jurisdictions, but this is just beyond wild proving my point people just want to make shit up.

@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

It’s called statutory rape. And he was married and 38 at the time. And he was also trying to meet this person at twitch con. And this is the same year of twitch con that he was caught cheating on his wife.

No amount of spin makes this OK. Please stop trying to justify pedophilia in defense of your favorite streamer. Sexting a minor is not ok, and the fact that even Beahm himself couldn’t spin this in a way that’s good for him should tell you something.

Aurix,

It wouldn’t qualify for that as depending on the country people can consent at that age. And we speak of a difference of a single year anyways. There is a reason people bring up marriage and age difference up instead, because it simply isn’t pedophilia. Current societal definition: “Psychiatric diagnostic criteria for pedophilia extend the cut-off point for prepubescence to age 13.”

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

The country is America dumbass. Age of consent is 18 in America. She was a minor, he was trying to solicit her at twitchcon. If you want to go the legal angle, that is a crime.

That’s not societal definition, that’s the clinical definition. But If you want to be pedantic, yes you are right. He’s actually an ephebophile, which is still detestable and is still illegal, still immoral, and still very fucking creepy.

Sexting a child is wrong. How is that hard for you to understand?

Are you a Doc fan? Are you a pedo/ephebophile? Libertarian? What’s going on here?

Aurix,

In over half of America it would have been legal as the age of consent is above 16 or 17. …wikipedia.org/…/Ages_of_consent_in_the_United_St…

This isn’t a child, it is almost an adult in the legal sense quite literally. Your entire point of a crime have taken place has just no ground to stand on.

There were inappropriate messages, but sexting wasn’t mentioned so far and I doubt the exact details will be known. A meeting in a public place like Twitch Con is better than some back alley.

Thanks to resorting to personal attacks, but I am bothered so much by this, because this situation makes shitty behavior as in cheating on his wife almost the same as actual rape and abuse cases. And that takes away resources in prevention and investigation where it is needed. I grew up with the Michael Jackson smear campaigns and social media just proliferated this type of abuse.

@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Twitch con was in California. And in the legal sense, almost an adult is a minor. So yes, this is a crime. And immoral. And worse than cheating. And yes, I’m ok with personally attacking pedos and those who defend them.

Also a lot of those states use age-gap/romeo and Juliet laws. In most states it’s illegal for a 38 year old man to solicit a minor.

Raped at twitch con is better than raped in an alley? Jesus fucking Christ.

I’m guessing libertarian and pedo, you probably don’t actually give a shit about Beahm.

Aurix,

How did you get fro meeting somebody to raping on Twitch Con. You have zero reasons to assume this situation. It isn’t pedophilia in any legal or moral sense.

Chozo,
@Chozo@fedia.io avatar

Again I ask, where did you come up with this age? From what I've seen, nobody has specified an age of the victim.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Very true. I’ve seen no info regarding the minor’s age, which honestly is probably a good thing. The victim’s identity should be protected.

wildcardology,

Hmmm it sounds like you have a 17 year old that you want to text.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

He admitted to sexting a minor. How the fuck is he not guilty and why are you out here trying to defend pedophilia?

Does anyone have a link to a source on the age of the kid? I'm wondering if I'm missing it. People keep saying she's 17. Was that in one of his edits?

Can I point out the strange parallel between this and the storyline in The Boys this week? I won’t expand on it for spoilers but Jesus Christ.

very funny to release what is clearly a meticulously crafted response to career ending allegations of pedophilia while still staying in character as like the bad guy in a movie where a golden retriever learns to play counter strike

Alteon, do gaming w Dr Disrespect Admits To 'Inappropriate' Messages With Minor: 'I'm No Fucking Predator Or Pedophile'

From the conversations, it sounds like he knew they were a minor and still leaned into the conversations. Why? Why TF would you even be curious about it?

Yeah I’ll believe that when they release the transcript of what he said to the minor

workerONE, do games w New FPS Built Using Doom Tech Is Better Than Most AAA Shooters

The Demo was great, Im going to play this today

IMALlama,

Let us know what you think of it! It certainly looks like it could be entertaining.

magic_lobster_party,

I’m not the same person, but I’ve played a few levels now. I think it’s really good, especially for being early access. Reminds me of original Half Life, so if you like that kind of game it’s a strong recommend!

IMALlama,

Thanks for following up! I played the OG halflife when it came out, so I will be sure to check this out.

workerONE,

Just following up in case anyone reads this in the future. The game is really good. In FPS games muzzle flash obscures the target and there’s a little of this here, and there’s a rhythm to shooting enemies and then stopping when they are dead so you don’t waste ammo. Once you get used to it, it feels like a challenging part of the game. I didn’t find the map key until like an hour ago and I wandered around a lot looking for the next thing. Navigating is a large part of the game, because exits and tunnels are not always obvious. Sometimes it’s irritating especially if you don’t use the map. Movement and the world are awesome

IMALlama,

Thanks for the follow up!

thingsiplay, do gaming w Starfield’s Paid Mods Ignite A Review Bombing On Steam

I have nothing against supporting paid mods, if the modder wants it to be monetized. It should be the decision of the modder. Not everything must be free of charge. As long as the modder can decide it.

TachyonTele,

That’s what “buy me a coffee/beer” and commissions are for. Not Todd Howards attempt to skim the mod community.

Instigate,

If Bethesda created a paid mod market where creators could charge for access and Bethesda only took a super nominal amount of those payments to cover transaction fees (say, 2-3%) I would so be in favour of that. I love the idea of passionate creators being rewarded for their work, and frankly it could (and should) create a new employee pipeline for them.

Sadly though, then Bethesda might make 0.01875% less profit this quarter than they did last quarter, which these days is the death knell of the capitalistic venture.

BruceTwarzen,

Wait wait wait, someone got a free coffee from OUR game? This should be my coffee, i want coffee too. Tod Howard probably

TachyonTele,

Howard, “We make money off the game sales and the mods that people make. It just works!”

AndrasKrigare,

Exactly. I was extremely disappointed in the community reaction when Steam was going to implement the option for modders to get paid. Instead of focusing on the legitimate issues with the proposal (pay ratios were off, mod dependencies and ripoffs need to be addressed) it boiled down to “rah, I don’t want to pay for things I didn’t used to, rah. Real modders give me stuff for free.”

I think we’re missing out by not having this as an option. Modding can provide a good stepping stone into full game development, and if people can earn money for their work, they can justify spending more time on it or potentially even doing it full time.

thingsiplay,

Yes. Those who don’t want to monetize their work (which is actually respectable) would standout even more. In example there could be two versions, one free version and one paid version with a few little extras to support the developers. This is a way to handle paid software even in Open Source, in example on Android where such a payment system is integrated.

There is no need to have an account on a different platform, so I can support the developer, and another account for another platform that wants my bank accounts. I speak about patreon and and the likes. It’s all here, with my Steam account and money from Steam.
