I saw this guy in the Rajjchellor show once. Didn't know him before and he came off as a massive creep and weirdo. I remember some racist stuff too? Not sure. I didn't know if it was all just some incel act that he is doing for the stream. I guess it wasn't

Here it is for anyone wondering



None of it is an act. He used to get super mad at people when they made fun of incels and go on long rants about it, and his discord was like 4chan. Extremely disturbing racism, sexism, mysoginy.

It is the most unique and horrible instance of "no way this guy is serious" but yeah, he was serious, i've ever experienced in my entire life.

should probably contact method's sponsors and let them know their money went to harboring a rapist child groomer for a year

One of the screens has me crawling out of my skin.

It's unforgivable that this took as long to happen as it did. He should have been removed after the incident with Poopernoodle.

Yup I remember seeing that months ago too and completely forgetting about it until now.

Then there's this along with the fucking kotaku article... Like who the fuck even wrote this statement??????




Darrie knew the entire time, she's been the CM since before Josh even joined.

Holly shit, that's fuck up.Josh used to be one of the best healer in wow and the most poplar streamer in METHOD.
I used to wonder why Josh disappeared all of sudden. What a disgusting piece of shit. And he quit his job to be full-time streamer. Get fucked.
Anyone has rumors about Asmongold? Hope he is not later revealed to be a creep.

Asmon is a weirdo but nope, no allegations or anything.
He also seems pretty ethical about certain matters when I watch him.

As far as I know, no. His chat is trash, and people may hate him for reasons or another but, I feel like he's changed a bit over the years. He's been open on twitter about supporting women, has always gone with stamping out racism in his chat along with other things he comments on and he's generally more open now. Obviously his chat would probably make you think otherwise but that's a ton of people to deal with lol

Asmon's chat is trash and he doesn't do himself any favors when he leans into it. The guy himself is all over the place in beliefs and ideals.

Most of wow twitch chats are pretty toxic. Fuck Josh. After I read Asmon's comments on twitter, it seems like a open secret in WoW twitch community. And it would become the largest PR crisis for Method. How could they hided/protected Josh for nearly 1-2 years is just crazy.

I'm confused by your post, are you saying that asmongold is a pedo/rapist?

Hopefully Blizzard bans his accounts too, I'm pretty sure there's plenty of guilds willing to welcome him aboard.

This dude needs to be locked up. Jesus. It was pretty obvious a year ago that something happened between him and Poopernoodle off-camera but I never imagined it was that horrific. Disgusting.

And I didn't even know about the stuff with the underage girls until now. Good god.

Wait, what? Why/how the fuck is this limited to "parting ways" with streaming platforms or guilds? This is a case of child pornography, child solicitation, child grooming, and rape, possibly inter-state. This is arrest territory, not a fucking guild or streaming ban.

Hence Method showing the most hesitation possible.
They're afraid of what was coming (which is literally now happening).

I can imagine them having a good idea of what generally happened after, like, he tried and/or did something a gazillion times apparently. It's probably in Method's best interest to never get this to court.

They fucking knew. I knew, and I'm not part of the higher end WoW community. This guy was notorious for this shit. That statement has my jaw on the floor after Darrie was being apologetic about it the past two days.





It's an outright fucking lie.

All these shit heads are cowering to save their brand right now. I can't wait until more proof surfaces just how toxic they all are. The only "method" members that I feel sorry for right now are the random other streamers that are affiliated with them. But they'll have to cut ties by the looks of it. Zizaran and Esfand are two wholesome streamers that are under "method".

But anyone that plays wow under the method brand and the head org of method (sco in particular) are complicit. You don't spend hours and hours in a discord with someone without knowing what they are like. Fuck Sco, Josh, and all of method

I'm waiting for someone to reach a boiling point and leak the slack shit. It's happened to them before, will happen again.

Poopernoodle was visibly traumatised by whatever happened between her and Josh. The fact Method saw all of that and the Twitch permaban and did nothing is a fucking joke. I can't believe Sco actually tried to get him unbanned on Twitch. Fuck them all.

Edit: Just read Poopernoodles story. How heartbreaking, I felt sick reading it. This guy is scum.

Never forget that Method kicked someone within a few hours for ninja looting in WoW, but knew what Josh was doing for years.

Any member of method and their leadership should get permabanned from twitch and wow. Plenty of receipts that prove they knew all along.

asmon is a funny one. he comes out with some pretty sexist stuff, particularly to play up to his audience. but then occasionally he comes out with something really heartfelt, sensible and thoughtful.

also, i just saw this trash tier tweet from summit (someone who i already thought was a cock) with a reasonable response from asmongold. tbh i disagree with him i think it's well past the time that we need to give methodjosh any air to defend themselves, but more generally it's not a unreasonable position.

Yes, contact all their sponsors and partners.
These are the ones they're actively showcasing currently.

I had seen some of the fallout from the situation with Josh and Poopernoodle on reddit last year, but her account is so much more awful than what I expected. I hope she has good support around her, in person and not just online.

It must be crushing to be a victim of something like that and watch the tidal wave of accusations coming out right now, feeling like those dangers are everywhere you turn and the entire industry you've been building a career in is a cesspit, on top of everything else going on in the world right now. Josh is truly one of the most despicable human beings I've had the misfortune to learn about.

I'm not aware of any sexual harassment/assault stuff, but Asmongold follows several alt-right accounts on Twitter like Mike Cernovich, Stefan Molyneux, TheQuartering, Lauren Southern, Nigel Farage, Ian Miles Cheong, Nicholas J. Fuentes, Jesse Kelly, Henrik Palmgren and in the past also Alex Jones (banned now). I also saw an Infowars sticker in one of his twitter pictures at some time (which was the reason why I checked his follower list and unfollowed him).
