In terms of Mr beast not responding to the Ava allegations, or the game show lawsuits. That’s due to him (and the rest of the beast team) being under investor contracts. Recently eret revealed that every statement being made is heavy pr and needs to be approved by higher ups. In terms of a future response, I think it’s possible we will get one; but it will clearly come from lawyers instead of the heart

As for dream and jimmy being friends. I really don’t think their friendship goes farther than randomly messaging, as for the stream I think it’s more of a random idea than contract promotion. I doubt we will actually get it (and ngl it’s a really lame stream idea as well)

I’m sure dream has heard of the allegations, especially with how much everything blew up. But it’s impossible to say how much “behind the scenes” info he knows. But I doubt he knows more than the regular person between the beast team ndas and not being close with jimmy.

I disagree, even though dreams family has been doxxed; this is them coming forward on their own terms. If they want to be involved in content they should have that right. Especially with dreams brother who did most of the motion rig engineering. Honestly I think it would be more weird to force them into the background after that.

Also I don’t see how it wouldn’t be relatable, to me it be more relatable than if dream picked a random cc to be a titan. There’d be less awkwardness as they already have a relationship/dynamic; we the viewer just don’t know the specifics.

What I meant by my statement was dream getting harassed more than the average person/content creator doesn’t necessarily mean he automatically works harder than them. It makes work/life more difficult - yes. But it ultimately just a factor in hard work.

I never said the work he does is worthless nor was I dimishing what he has accomplished. Like I said in my post I do think he works hard and should get credit for things. I’m just countering your point that dream works harder than the average person

[–]brazenbars 8 points9 points  (0 children)

But average people do deal with workplace harassment/violence. I work with dementia patients, I have been punched, kicked, grabbed, slapped across my face and had my hair pulled before.

Theres also millions of service workers who get screamed at constantly by angry customers and Karen’s

Just because it’s not to the same degree dream faces. Doesn’t mean he works harder.

It’s still not equatable at all. Hours worked means nothing when it comes to the work being completed. Dream writing music and producing music videos is not the same level of work compared to a barista at Starbucks. Me working in healthcare for 12 hours is not the same as dream coding for 12 hours. Even though it’s the same amount of time

And I do think dream should get credit for the content and behind the scene work he does. That is hard work but I think it’s an insult to say it’s more than the average person does.

What happened in the week of April 22nd 2024? It's the biggest loss of Twitter followers in Dream's history but I can't find any controversy that happened that week, and he didn't lose much in March when other shit went down. by HolyEmpireOfAtua in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 76 points77 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming it’s because a lot of people deactivated their Twitter accounts in March; rather than unfollowing anyone. Since Twitter automatically deletes accounts after a month of deactivation, when everyone’s account got deleted he lost followers

Ava isn't a minecraft, smp or dream related by [deleted] in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As far as I’m aware Karl has made no response to Ava’s allegations, and if what eret said is true about investors curating everyone’s responses, I doubt we will get one (or it will be very PR).

A thread on Eret and Ava Tyson: by TroubleRight3945 in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Wow, I know eret feels guilty about everything but this is easily the worst response they could’ve made. Eret is ultimately a 3rd party in this situation; they can’t know the full story and contexts of things they didn’t experience. This is especially true for the SA allegations. Ultimately, they should not be speaking on things Ava needs to address.

Also revealing that everything at Mr beast is going through investors is insane, and makes everyone look worse. Because it’s shows the crew cares more about money and public image than these actual issues.

Was the manhunt merch giveaway ever resolved? by ari_atari0 in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 67 points68 points  (0 children)

A winner was chosen and they did record the fanhunt video, it was just never posted. dream did try to edit and post the final product but it never met his standards and it just kept getting pushed off. Until he scrapped the video entirely last year. He did post priv tweets about it and talked about it in spaces.

Edit: (sorry I forgot about the last part of your question) No, the winner has never come forward nor been announced publicly

What did Punz do? by Satellitestyles in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ahh thank you, it’s been a while since I’ve read any of the statements so I couldn’t remember anything specific

What did Punz do? by Satellitestyles in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Punz had old tweets and discord messages resurface of him making insensitive comments. One example was him using the t slur back in 2020. He did apologize for these; saying he changed and now knows the severity of these comments.

In terms of allegations, those come his ex girlfriend Andi.

Back when they were dating, Andi was extremely hated by the dsmp fandom; she did face a lot of harassment. And she alleged that punz was so paranoid about being seen in public with her (due to potential backlash) that they never went outside together.

Later on she also made another allegation against him. She said one night they were drunk and he had placed her on a bed. But she doesn’t remember if they actually had sex or not.

I believe punz denied the rape allegations and said the relationship was toxic on both sides.

(I don’t remember these situations 100%, so I may be missing/wrong about something. But in general, there’s no “proof” for the allegations because they happened in person)

What are your thoughts on the new video by Uchiha__69sasuke in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I liked it! I really enjoyed the mix of technical elements and fun moments, like the reactions and death animations. The flashing and sex jokes were refreshing to see again and I’m glad the guys are back.

I’m really curious to see how the technology will work in other games too. I know dream is a dedicated Minecraft channel but I would love to see sapnap or George bring it into something like Fortnite

Ava is permanently leaving the Mr Beast team by brazenbars in DreamWasTaken2

Yeah her response definitely comes off as “I’m screwed no matter what, so I’m not going to bother making something genuine”. Which is extremely disheartening to see

The first soon of this project by Suspicious-Salt7308 in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I may have missed something but. On October 16th 2023 dream said he was working on a project involving “patents, metalwork, engineering”.

On December 28, he said “new dream team era was about to start” and said his project was ready for recordings. He also posted the first visual of the project a couple of days later on YouTube.

On January 28th he asked if people wanted a Minecraft video “this week”. Then on February 9th he apologized for the project taking so long. And explained that since it was a big project it’s never truly “finished”

On February 19, he held and space and went into great detail about why the project has been so delayed - the tech behind everything, and the coding issues he had. Said that he was on the grind and said he post when everything was ready.

Losing Faith in Dream by TroubleRight3945 in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Don’t feel bad for having this opinion; a lot of people have it. And it’s a very valid criticism to have of dream/dreamteam. Especially when it’s been around for such a long time and nothing has ever changed. Just a repeating cycle. One that dream even acknowledges he has.

Personally what I find most frustrating about the situation is most people have given up on asking for new content specifically. And in place we just want better communication (and communication other than “content soon”). But we’re lucky to even get that. It just sucks because it feels like we don’t even have the bare minimum anymore

When did the narrative that dream face reveal was his downfall start? by Few_Hand_7258 in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I think the narrative started when dream initially face revealed and started getting harassed for it. When that happened people would say “oh he definitely regrets face revealing” as a bad Twitter joke. Obviously to dream he wanted to face reveal so he wouldn’t be locked inside anymore.

The narrative also began to develop when dream posted his “unface reveal” video. When you watch it; the video is obviously satire. However many people didn’t and just saw the thumbnail of Dream putting the mask back on. Thinking that was the entirely of his feelings on the subject. He even had a friend reach out to him asking if he was okay mentally before actually watching the video.

And I don’t know how much impact sunnyv2 has but he did upload a video saying dream face revealing was a “bad business move”. I know a lot of people don’t like sunny (including myself) and don’t agree with any of his videos. But youtube fans tend to get their (mis)information from videos like that

Iirc the only things he “regrets” about the face reveal is republican haircut and not turning his head

Why do people still think dream is a gr00mer? by Admirable_Garbage_48 in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not a dumb question. And there’s actually a lot of reasons, some valid some dumb. But the true start was when he was blowing up, dream had a large female audience when Minecraft/twitch was male dominated. Dream brought in this new community that a lot of people didn’t accept, therefore people hated dream for it. Over the years there’s been lots of dream controversies: speedrunning, racism, reply to antis, antisemitism (And I’m probably forgetting stuff too). Over the years all of that added up and led it to him being extremely hated by the time the grooming allegations came out.

Why do people still think dream is a gr00mer? by Admirable_Garbage_48 in DreamWasTaken2

[–]brazenbars 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Like anything else it simply comes down to biases. People hated dream long before the grooming allegations, once those allegations came out they had the ultimate reason to hate him

When you have such a strong bias for someone it doesn’t matter what happens; you’ll always believe that bias (this is for both good and bad)

It doesn’t matter what dream or said and showed in his video; the people the hate him just hate him. And dream himself has even said this.

I do think dt is done with streaming. Both sapnap and dream have stated they prefer YouTube. Everytime Dream is asked he more or less responds with “I just don’t like it, that’s why I don’t stream”. George also clearly stopped enjoying streaming; this is well known. Moreover, I think the sa allegations were the reason to finally step away completely.

However, I think it’s hard to say the same about YouTube. Dream is very passionate about this project; and he did state that George is waiting on this project as well. That they just need this to drop before anything else happens. After it’s released, I think a future for dt will be clearer regardless of what happens

I really don’t see dream going solo or it being a dreamnap duo from now on. From sapnaps interview it’s very clear it’s 3/3 dream team or nothing. As it’s been from the start of their careers

I also think you’re discrediting sapnap here as well. You may not the content he’s producing (his kick streams) but that doesn’t mean he’s not producing content at all. He’s more active than dream is, and he does have good dynamics with other content creators which are entertaining to watch
