IS RØDECASTER WORTH IT?

I have a lot on my plate now as I wait for my XLR cable and Røde mic mount to arrive. They should be here between July 8 and July 10. Once they do I'll be back to streaming.

Here is what I think about my gear:

The Rødecaster Pro II is the device out there.

It is the choice for streamers and podcasters who care about audio quality.

The Rødecaster Pro II is very powerful. It can be hard to learn.

Rødes tutorials for using two PCs are not great so you have to be patient and do your research.

I have found that using AI has been really helpful for troubleshooting.

This is especially true since I am still figuring out routing.

The Rødecaster Pro II is worth every penny.

Since it is a device you do not need to clutter your PC with extra apps.

You can control audio, instruments and even phone connections on the mixer. They have the app which the competition company do not have at all

I think it is way better than the GoXLR or Beacn Mix.

The team that was used to be behind the GoXLR made the Beacn Mix so they have the problems with reliability and software issue. Dont learn the hard way and find out. anyone i know have beacn audio interface and mic or mix create they have issue with it always. Not worth it.

If you are willing to put in the time to learn the Rødecaster Pro II is an upgrade.

The only bad thing about Røde is that they do not respond quickly. They never answer on Discord. I think it is better to email them directly and explain what you have tried so far. To be honest I did not even wait for them to get back to me. The AI helper figured things out for me faster than watching YouTube videos, which usually do not have clear instructions.

I use AI for help with technical issues. It is really helpful to be able to show pictures and ask questions, which makes setting things up a lot easier. I do not understand why people do not like AI. It is often a teacher than a person because it is always available to help you. AI can look at a lot of information and research quickly so you do not have to look through a lot of search results. I really like AI. I wish it was around when I was in school. AI are best tool. AI is a help and I have seen students and Twitch streamers use it to do their schoolwork and studies.

Røde really needs to get better at responding to people. The artificial intelligence technology has been very helpful, to me when I have problems. I like using intelligence because I do not want anyone else to touch my computer. The time I hired someone to fix my computer they made it worse and I had to send it to the factory to get it fixed.

I think some people do not like AI because they are upset that they are not getting hired to do jobs anymore. For example some artists come to my stream. Ask me to pay them to make pictures or emote for me.. I make my own art. I. Sketch my emote digital on my tablet. I even make Ai art for companies that use Ai. So why would I pay someone to do it when I can do it myself? It seems like these people are just mad because they are not getting work. Some of these artists are not even very good. They still want to charge a lot of money for their work.

They want to charge one hundred dollars for work that's not worth that much money. Each of them try self promotion, sometime i check their work after stream. i check their work and its ugly as hell. I ban them first. like take your self promo somewhere else dipshits.

I think this is a way for them to deal with their feelings. coping much..

anyways i highly recommend this Rødecaster pro 2. I bought in white color. Its so pretty with my marble table. Setup picture coming soon.

Why Does TikTok Mute You? The Truth About AI Moderation and "Shadowbans"

You ever been in the middle of a great livestream, feeling the energy, only to have your audio suddenly cut out? Or have you noticed your view counts mysteriously tank, leaving you wondering if you’ve been "shadowbanned"

You aren't imagining it. TikTok’s moderation system is constantly working in the background, and for many creators, it can feel like an invisible, unforgiving judge. Let’s break down the tech behind the curtain so you can protect your content.

The "Silent" Moderator: How AI Mutes Your Stream

When your stream gets muted, it’s rarely a human clicking a button in real-time. Instead, you are dealing with a sophisticated AI pipeline that operates in milliseconds.

ASR (Automatic Speech Recognition): This is the brain behind the mute. TikTok’s AI doesn't just "hear" sound; it converts your spoken words into text in real-time.

NLP (Natural Language Processing): Once your speech is converted to text, an NLP model scans it against a massive database of "forbidden" words. This includes profanity, hate speech, and harassment.

The "Confidence" Score: The AI assigns a risk score to what you say. If that score crosses a certain threshold, the system triggers an automatic action-in this case, muting your audio-to ensure the platform remains "brand-safe" and family-friendly.

Why does it feel like a false alarm?

Because the AI struggles with nuance. It often cannot distinguish between a streamer using a "bad word" in a friendly, conversational way and someone using it as a genuine insult. It also struggles with sarcasm, slang, and cultural dialects. In the world of AI, it’s usually better to be "too safe" than to risk a policy violation.

What is a "Shadowban"?

"Shadowban" is a term the community created, even if TikTok doesn't officially use it. It refers to a sudden, unexplained drop in reach. Your videos are still "live," but they aren't appearing on the For You Page (FYP), and your engagement plummets.

What triggers this "invisible" penalty?

Algorithmic Trust Issues: If your account frequently breaks Community Guidelines (even minor ones), the system builds a "risk profile" for your account. Once your profile is flagged as "high risk," the algorithm automatically suppresses your content to avoid recommending potentially problematic material to others.

Bot-Like Behavior: Rapidly following/unfollowing, spamming comments, or trying to "game" the algorithm with repetitive, low-effort content can lead the system to throttle your reach to prevent platform manipulation.

Sensitive Topics: Discussing controversial or borderline content can cause the algorithm to quietly deprioritize your videos, even if they don't technically violate a hard rule.

How to Protect Your Stream?

You can’t control the AI, but you can change how you play the game. Here are three ways to avoid the "mute" and stay in the algorithm's good graces:

1- Watch the "Broadcast" Language: Treat your stream like you’re on public television. If you have a habit of swearing, practice "clean" alternatives or designate "stream-safe" hours where you consciously watch your language.

2- Audit Your Content: If your views drop, look at your last 5–10 videos. Did you use any words that might be flagged? Are you using music that doesn't have a commercial license? Sometimes, the fix is as simple as a "cooling-off period" where you post strictly high-quality, guideline-compliant content.

3- Use Official Tools: Use the music library provided by TikTok. Using copyrighted audio is the #1 reason for automatic mutes, and it’s one of the easiest issues to avoid.

The Bottom Line: The AI is trying to protect the platform's brand, not punish you personally. By understanding that there is an automated "text-conversion" engine listening to every word you say, you can adjust your behavior and stop those random mutes before they happen.

The "Kick 2.0" Blueprint: Favoritism, sus Metrics, and the Snake in the Grass

I’m not here to sugar-coat the reality of where this platform is headed. It’s time to call out the tactics currently being used to gatekeep growth and manipulate the narrative of success. Many creators already recognize these patterns of behavior-I’m just the one saying it out loud. here it goes...

#Accountability #CreatorEconomy #PlatformDrama #Kick2.0 #StreamingCommunity #TruthToPower #Shadowbanned #X2026 #streaming #sugarbaby #gaming #shay #cute #good vibes #kawaii #taurus #boldandbeautiful

The "Desperate CEO" Starter Pack

There is nothing funnier than watching a CEO do a frantic PR lap across every other platform and get on politic new outlets or post a lot on X, begging people to move to their "innovative" new ecosystem. It’s giving "Please clap" energy. Same goes for their minions they botting to push make like the platform is legit when its all fake just like kick has issue. At least kick u get people transfer from twitch over to theirs.

The playbook is always the same:

The Paywall Flex: Thinking a blue checkmark is a "feature" and not just a digital dunce cap you have to pay $8 for.

The "Behind the Scenes" Delusion: Acting like the vibes are immaculate when the entire internet has seen the receipts of how the team actually behaves. and a lot people saw how they remove my check mark after earn it fair and square before they put behind paywall. A lot creator behind scene seen thoes recipts the ugly truth of asshole Team behind rumble and how they supress you if dare to speak out or not agree with their narrative. and shadowban me and make sure each time i stream i wouldnt get viewership. Its heavy manipluative and they dont care about the thejoker liptard botting because they botting their own platform. Or else they would done something about it.

The Copium: Calling it a "disruption" or a "takeover" when it’s actually just a massive, slow-motion fumble over.

You don’t see YouTube creators or Twitch leads out here acting like a door-to-door salesman for a product everyone already knows is broken. It’s not a Rumble; it’s a Stumble over.

If your platform were actually good, you wouldn’t have to tweet through the breakdown every 15 minutes. We’re all just standing here with popcorn watching the ship hit the iceberg while the captain insists the water is "refreshing."

The proof is in the data-just look at the recent reviews on Trustpilot. These aren't "haters"; these are real people who actually tried the platform and are reporting back on the disaster.

Why would anyone migrate to a platform with bottom-tier upload bitrates and a UI that looks like Temu YouTube? People already have Twitch, Kick, and YouTube-platforms that actually have cool features and work smoothly. Trying to "disrupt" the industry with a broken product isn't a takeover; it’s just embarrassing.

This is called karma. When you choose to mess with me, this is what you get. I’ll make sure my entire network knows about the dirty work happening behind the scenes-from how their team operates to their blacklisting tactics. Because I refused to go along with botting, they stripped the checkmark I earned fair and square, only to put it behind a paywall later.

The platform hasn't been the same since the mass departure of creators in 2023. On top of that, they stole my ad revenue. The site has become a haven for predators and those kicked off other platforms for bad behavior. They can’t land reputable sponsors; they only get obscure companies that don't know any better. This is why they lost Sneako and other big names to Kick. On Kick, even with the botting issues, you can actually be yourself without following a forced narrative. If you speak out against Rumble, they shadowban and blacklist you and remove your checkmark. Even 'Kick haters' only use Rumble as bait to make Kick jealous, hoping to get back in their good graces. Someone like thejoker for example and his minions. Some creators are just using Rumble as a tool because they're too desperate to admit they want to be back on Kick. I got the dm from thejoker back in 2023 he beg use my email to make kick jealous that should tell you a lot. Still got that dm btw;) dont believe me i will leak it. TRUE story btw.

People like Sneako, Mizkif, Fresh & Fit, and Tate’s inner circle have all moved over to Kick. Even Nick Fuentes has an account there now. Nobody wants this dipshit platform they keep trying to sell us on. If they actually want people to stay, they should fire the entire staff—starting with Mario and the 2023 crew. They need to stop blacklisting creators, pay for the damage they’ve caused, and return everyone's ad money.

You took people for granted, and this is what happens. You assumed they were small, but these creators have connections and word travels fast. People will always want to hear the truth and see the receipts. You might silence them on your platform, but you can’t silence what happens behind closed doors. As more people share their experiences publicly as i link above, others will treat those stories as a lesson and avoid your platform like the plague. been out since 2011 but still hard stuck in 6th 7th most of the time even with you botting it, now its on 8th place on leaderboard Platforms stats overview. You cant make this up. Cant even beat Soop or steamtv or bigolive. and chzzk. Nimotv usually are top of them. But this month they been slacking off. They always bounse back though.

KICK TRUE COLORS PART 2

Here’s Kick’s automated response to the proof I sent notice how dismissive they are and automated and its clear they never open single fucking picture proof was taken from their own website that show on dashboard. I went into full detail and to share everything that’s been happening to me on Kick for years now in part 1 post. read that then read this after. I had do this way because i am limited how many image i can upload. I only can upload 30 image on each blog post.

As you can tell, they never actually looked into it. They barely read my email and dismissed the entire set of screenshots that proved them wrong. Their automated reply is just damage control they know it’s Kick itself that messed with my account, because nobody else has access.

Metrics don’t just downgrade, nerf, or reset out of nowhere, especially not in October. Every other streamer’s achievements stay intact as long as they keep streaming, so what they said just isn’t true.

They don’t even seem to understand their own Terms of Service I’ve seen it edited multiple times, full of typos. The fact that this clown staff exists and that Eddie keeps hiring people who barely speak English, who just copy-paste automated replies what’s this CEO even paying them for? It’s all lazy, scripted nonsense.

I know people hate hasan right now, but he not wrong with these takes. this girl just listen to her own experience and this her actual experience she fucking work at Kick officer dont be stupid. things that we creator have not seen.

As First OG class 2022 of kick i remember her. She was actual the nicest staff that i spoken with on support. She was always super kind hearted and was not dismissive me when i spoke to her. Now we have Degen people same people she exposed on kick. and whatever she saying in her video is 100% Eddie instantly went do damage control try undermine her and tell people that she is lying when its not.

And honestly, after what ex-Kick staff member ItsMelissaDude exposed about what goes on behind the scenes, none of this surprises me. I’m sure they’re sitting in the office laughing, abusing their power, and doing whatever they want to creators like me.

Kick true colors

How They’re Undermining Me, a Hardworking Streamer, with Dirty Tricks part 1

Hey everyone, if you’re out there grinding as a streamer, building your community from the ground up, I need you to hear me out. I’ve been pouring my soul into this for years streaming live, chatting with real people, and always speaking out against cheating like viewbotting or fake followers. It’s all about keeping it real, right? But lately, I’ve been hit with something rotten on Kick, a platform that’s supposed to have our backs. They’re not just letting me down they’re actively sabotaging me. And I’ve got the proof.

This isn’t just a rant; it’s my story, backed by screenshots and timestamps from my own streams. If you’re thinking of jumping to Kick from Twitch for those big promises, read this first. What you’re stepping into might be a setup where the rules get rigged against you.

My Story: From Hope to Heartbreak on Kick

I joined Kick a while back, lured by the hype 95/5 revenue splits, no exclusivity traps, and a vibe that felt “creator-first.” I was all in. I streamed for hours, gaming and hanging with my community, never using bots or shortcuts. Just pure, honest work. Yesterday, October 21, 2025, I went live for a long session. My “Chatter Boxers” achievement tracking unique chats over 30 days was sitting at 17/100. Seventeen real people had chatted with me, and I was proud of that organic growth.

Then, mid-stream five hour later about five hours when they watching me stalk hate watching and that when they downgrade to 11 when u can see on date it said 17 they drop to 11 without any issue i had only 6 viewer that nobody was botting or anything. and the fact they doing this intentionally just because they have personal agenda this witch hunt. I watched it happen live. The number dropped from 17 to 11, right there on my dashboard. Three new chats rolled in (pushing it briefly to 14), but even that got erased. By the end, it was locked at 11 when we all know only kick have the power cuz they have code since they manipluting their own platform to thoes whom they choose to viewbot they also have the power do other things as coder we know they got full control. I was stunned. I grabbed screenshots to prove it:

Screenshot 1 (Oct 21, 9:00 PM CEST): Pre-stream, showing 17/100 Chatter Boxers.

Screenshot 2 (Oct 21, 11:30 PM CEST): Mid-stream, briefly hitting 14/100 with new chats.

Screenshot 3 (Oct 22, 1:00 PM CEST): Post-stream, locked at 11/100 despite activity. then thos new people came in and typed now it say 14 but i kid you not they will do this again.

its not first time they doing this to me cuz i been close beat and meet metric each time i get close to 100 they nerf it on purpose.

These shots were taken while I was streaming proof I’ve been consistent. This wasn’t a glitch. Someone or some system they control targeted me while I was live. I’ve been loud about calling out viewbotting on Kick and every fucking that know on kick knows this i even got harrased for back in early kick 2022 and 2023, and this feels like payback. They’re punishing me for staying honest while propping and rewarding viewbotter kcip and simp on 304

Support’s a Joke: Same Faces, Same Lies

Furious, I hit up Kick support right away. I sent screenshots, daily achievement reports, even VOD links showing the drop. Their reply? A lazy, ChatGPT-style copy-paste: “The requirement is based on your unique chatters over a 30-day period. If the number hasn’t increased after your latest stream, it’s likely because previous lower-performing streams are still factored into the average. Conversely, if the number has decreased, it may be due to a stream with a high number of unique chatters falling outside the 30-day window and no longer being counted. Should you require any further assistance or have any questions for us, don't hesitate to reach out again.”

What the hell? This automated nonsense doesn’t even match my situation I was streaming live when it dropped! They don’t look at my proof; they just slam that response without a clue.

It’s always the same people Pavle, Filip, Jovana, Luka, Nemanja, Ilija-dishing out this garbage. They’ve got it out for me, dismissing my evidence without a second glance, never escalating it to higher staff as they claim to have when we all know its same fucking people behind entire department i have seen each emails support they slack of that they forget put kick as best regard they put their name. Why? Because they run everything support, tech, verification, all of it. I’ve got a screenshot proving it: Nemanja, who claims he’s “just support” with no power to give checkmarks, was caught handing one out verified to one of her so called "friend" but reality he is simp to bitches that have not actual been streaming or do have any social media reach.

When I called them on it, they lied, saying he’s not in verification or tech. Bull. These same people control every department, and they’re using that power to attack my channel.

Kick’s Double Standards: Trashing Twitch While Playing Dirty

Kick loves bashing Twitch on X and on stream tweets, you name it, it’s all “Twitch screws creators!” Sure, Twitch has issues, but Kick’s the real hypocrite. While they’re out there preaching fairness, they’re pulling shady moves behind the scenes. They watched my stream live metrics don’t drop like that without intervention. And they have total control. We creators can’t touch leaderboards or stats, but Kick can. They even override my settings, forcing unchecked sub/dono details to show on my profile. here u have proof and if got to my kick.com/shay it shows. kick is force that and intentionally doing this then wtf is point with this setting when they override my rights on my own accoount.

Then there’s this: without my permission, they switched me from “Gaming” to “Just Chatting.” I don’t have mods who could do that. BECAUSE i remove all my mods on kick. And kickbot do nothing but commands links nothing else. That has no power to change category out of blue. i was playing dying light 2 and they just came to my fucking stream and change it. When I asked, they brushed it off as a like retard send that is your mods when i clearly tell that i do not have mod at all. and lied about it.

Compare that to Twitch I took a break from 2022 to 2023 because Kick came out 2022 year, and as a Kick OG, I kinda messed up my own Twitch grind. Still, when I came back at the end of 2023, my stats were untouched. Even after almost two years away, Twitch never messed with my account, because they don’t move like that.

Multiple times, Twitch support told me they actually want more affiliates to hit Partner, since they’re trying to move away from the affiliate system and push for more organic success on their platform. Since twitch only platform that actual have zero tolerance for viewbots and i notice how a lot stream get nerf in viewership cuz they viewbotting and we all know botting usually stay lurk on stream. Kick encourage botting they reward them still this day so many viewbotter that after metric chatterbox change a lot of them viewbots their way up to kcip program and since kick incompetent retards staff that simp and cant speak English they use chatgpt. automate reply. They leftover from dlive, trovo platform that fallen apart under their management.

And the wild part? Twitch never struck me, even when I cussed or played copyrighted music stuff that usually gets people in trouble. They know my character, and I don’t break rules. If it’s just copyrighted music, all they do is auto-mute those parts in my VODs.

Meanwhile on Kick…

Kick’s the one manipulating metrics, likely to hide their own viewbotting. Top streams with silent “viewers”? It’s everywhere, and they’re covering it up by kneecapping honest creators like me. The fact there dozen screenshoot that been seen and taken by admin like this clown hand out check mark to girl that dont even stream much before she got verified.

here is all my daily report that i been streaming on kick and my achievements. plz pay attention to these dates from this file. also below is close look on recorded proof of thoes moment i have been streaming.

Click on the image to view them. In the file named “Kick Achievements,” you can clearly see the screenshot dates proof that says otherwise. That is not normal that it goes down when i am stream consistently that just proof that kick did that during stream. u see 21 October i was live to 22 October i did 13h stream as i was live it happen.

This debunks the lies Kick support fed me. I’ve already sent all of this to them, by the way didn’t leave a single thing out. Kick respond to all this screenshot in part 2 blog post.

Why It Matters?

Creators, listen up. most of my haters dont like me i dont give fuck. but thoes whom have no issue with me. just think and read word for word.

Is a couple extra bucks really worth selling your morals and integrity for a “better split” on Kick? It’s a trap. If they’re sabotaging me, what makes you think they won’t do the same to you? We’ve already seen how many Kick creators got booted for no reason, and how Phase class members got ignored when they were doxxed and dragged. and many of them cry about on X we all seen those tweet. then you delusional if u think u will not also one day be having that experience when kick get tired of u.

A few extra buck aren’t worth losing your integrity. Kick viewbots their own platform, gives perks to favorites for a while, then drops them the second they get bored. It’s a pattern a handbook of shady behavior.

Remember Drake? Everyone was meat-riding him until they got sick of him, then they dropped him. Same with Adin once he moved to another gambling site, they tanked his Kick payout and witch-hunted the rest. Is that what you call a trustworthy platform? You really think they won’t do the same to you just because you’re kissing up to them?

Congrats, you’ve just sold your morals and your soul. All your integrity gone. You stand behind a platform that undermines creators your own fellow creator that u have something incommend with over org company that if things dark for u kick will not stand behind u once u share your opinion about things that when kick will look side way and start dislike u when u form your own opinions and start feel that effect " wtf i am doing i am going against and dismiss people bad experience even they shown proof when u get that AH moment and it effect your mental health and people don't respect cuz you sold your soul" Nobody will respect u as creator u just one of those Degen whom eat shit to get shit handed to u easy and sold out. and you chose their side over your own kind. Hope those few bucks were worth it.

And when they drop you because they will don’t come crying to those of us who warned you. Don’t play the victim when Kick moves on to their next puppet to parade around as “proof” of how great their platform is. They’ll promote you, milk you for content, then toss you aside. Let’s be real Kick’s competing with Twitch, but Twitch doesn’t even care about Kick. Twitch is focused on YouTube. And YouTube? They don’t care about either. They’re watching TikTok. (I’ll make a blog about that soon got a lot to say there.) You’re delusional if you think you have real viewership on Kick. You’re just another sad wannabe who used to try viewbotting on Twitch and got caught now you’re hiding out on Kick, selling out and betraying your fellow creators instead of standing with them. Just know, when they finally drop you and they will we’ll be here, the creators who tried to warn every new Kick partner and every KCIP member before you. They’ll use you, just like they used us OGs and everyone who came after. You’re not special to them. You’re just another puppet in their show.

We’ve seen the receipts Kick is shady and heavily botted. They want you to ditch your Twitch community for a fake dream. Sponsors are watching, and they don’t want to work with brand risks. That’s why they stick with Twitch and YouTube platforms that actually hold people accountable. Even some get unnoticed but at least when you report and give them actual proof they will ban that person. Once people stand together and spam tweet at them. Meanwhile kick CEO doing damage control the fact staff own staff member came out and expose their behind scene management that shows volume. here is proof i could find original video she made. here sweet girl react to her and she gave some of her intake which i agree with.

This is exactly why you’ll lose out on opportunities and deals. No streamer on Kick has truly blown up the way Twitch creators have. Think about Kai, Adin, and others I don’t even need to name them all. Everyone knows Adin’s on Kick now but he didnt got where he is at now cuz of kick its was youtube and twitch, but we all remember he grew on Twitch. Even he’s realizing how shady Kick is, constantly having to fight with them just to get his kcip payments restored. he also screw himself over because of kick. I was there when he was banned on twitch cuz he was showing a lot TOS and was stream on kick too. So its was not some bullshit as he claim to.

Nobody literally nobody has grown on Kick or earned real respect in the streaming world. Everyone knows Kick is botted, inflating numbers for both creators and the platform itself, all funded by dirty money. You’ve got to be seriously delusional to think you’ve got your facts straight if you believe otherwise.

Don’t even get me started on Rumble they’ve been pulling the same shady behavior as Kick. I’ve seen it up close, and I’ll be making a standalone post to expose all the dirt I’ve got on their creators and staff.

I’ve been in this game since BlogTV, since the early days of YouTube. I’ve seen platforms rise and fall, watched the same shady patterns repeat. If I never took breaks and kept streaming like Kai, I’d be massive too. But I had my priorities finishing school came first. I still streamed part-time and even did full-time on another platform when I had a 30-day partnership deal.

It was Rumble which I’ll address in another post where I’ll also share testimonies from people’s own experiences about all the predatory, harassing, and extremist behavior happening over there, along with all the viewbotting too.

I’ve seen what happens firsthand to creators screw their twitch community and sabotage their number over bigger bucks and short temporary deals. Look at Nickmercs he came back from Kick to Twitch after he got his bag and got tired of the bots. His numbers have never been the same. He used to pull huge viewership on Twitch, but after going to Kick, his reach dropped hard. You can check his live stats they don’t lie. Same thing happened with Ninja when he left for Mixer.

here u have guy react. These moment didn't age well. They sold their soul for bit when they come back they just don't have the number as they used to. Because they screw themselves over. If that how u want do things and not use their mistake to not make that same mistake as streamer on twitch that is your own right. Just learn from these streamer mistake. If you have loyal community on twitch promise me u don't want mess that over. Twitch i know got flaws i mean its not first time. but its stable platform and where sponsorship look at. U got chance get them then u will ever have on kick or rumble. cuz these two extremist platform that so much hate speech and constantly botted and that not good for business no company want work with u either. Because they look at u differently.

It proves the point: when you build a real community on Twitch, that loyalty stays there. The moment you sell out for a couple bucks and get blinded by Kick’s fake promises and inflated splits, you throw away what you built.

Kick’s a mess broken app, bad API, zero protection for female streamers, constant harassment, bot hate raids, doxxing, chatbot spam emote scheme, even people getting hurt live on stream. Twitch isn’t perfect, but it gives creators real tools to protect themselves on stream also so many moderation tools. Kick claims to be “out of beta,” but when you reach out to support, you just get automated replies. At that point, what’s the difference between talking to their “team” or an actual bot? Honestly, I’d rather talk to the bots at least they’re more accurate.

Just think about that before you throw everything away for a short-term bag or front page botted and few bucks hours pay.

Stick with Twitch and youtube, sure, for some viewership its hard. That how it suppose to be grind, but it’s real. My Twitch stats never get messed with; that’s peace of mind you can’t fake. you can do collab co stream with people that will help u since u care so much about viewership. Viewbot arent helping when they not subbing its very obvious.

If this resonates, don’t just scroll past. Drop your stories in the comments on my X post or here https://x.com/AmSHAY_

Tag Kick support (good luck with that). For those still tempted, ask yourself: is the payout worth the stress? I’m not giving up- I’ll keep streaming, exposing, and earning honestly, Twitch and multi on kick. Twitch always my main.

What’s your take? Hit me with your Kick experiences below- let’s speak out against these shady muddah fuckers

part two with more screenshot coming after this

Exposing the ExecutiveJoker: The Snake in Clown's Clothing Slithering onto Rumble community for nowdays

Hey fam

if you're tired of fake influencers who'll sell their soul (and your trust) for a quick view count, buckle up. Today, I'm calling out a guy who's made a career out of hypocrisy, harassment, and straight-up fraud. You might know him as "The Joker" – or as he rebrands himself these days, "ExecutiveJoker." Spoiler: He should just drop the act and call himself "Clown Supreme." This dude's a walking red flag, flip-flopping platforms faster than he changes his socks, all while viewbotting his way to fake relevance. And now? He's landed on turf – Rumble – sucking up to the biggest viewbotters here like it's his full-time job.

I've got the receipts: screenshots, DMs, unedited videos. No cherry-picking, no "out of context" excuses. This isn't drama; it's a public service announcement. Let's break down why you should steer clear before he bites.

Platform-Hopping Hypocrite: From harrasment on kick and parti to Rumble Bootlicking

Remember 2023? While the rest of us were grinding for real growth, ExecutiveJoker was crying in my DMs about how Rumble "ignoring" him. I have the screenshots – timestamped, unfiltered proof of him venting like a jilted ex. Fast-forward to now, and he's all over Rumble, kissing the ring of every low-rent creator with inflated numbers. Why the 180? Simple: clout-chasing. He'll ride any "meat" that gets him eyes, no matter how small or shady that meat is. Someone please get dildo to this guy in all shades. He love riding it so hard all cuz of clout.

This isn't his first rodeo. He's been bounced from platform after platform for the same toxic playbook: hate speech, personal attacks on staff, and relentless DM harassment their X or discord. On Kick? He got the booted out of kicp for viewbotting and nonstop bashing santamaria who "had zero power." Free speech? Sure – until it's aimed at the people keeping the lights on. He even turned a Kick feature event into a handout beg-a-thon, all while trashing Rumble behind the scenes with his buddy Sponge. (Yeah, I got those DMs too as i mention also this happen when i was playing fortnite with sponge also how he ask me use my partner email from rumble make kick jealous this was before he hit kicp ;) Bitter? He's obsessed – Kick lives rent-free in his head, even after they showed him the door.

Viewbotting Virtuoso: Fake Views, Real Desperation

Everywhere he goes, the views spike unnaturally. It's not organic growth; it's bots on steroids. And guess what? He's doing it right now on Rumble. Hop on his channel, and you'll see the same suspicious surges that got him boosted on kick. This guy's not building a community; he's inflating a balloon animal of lies. If you're a creator here grinding for real engagement, watch your analytics – snakes like this poison the well for everyone. Then nobody will respect you as creator when you hang around his circle. All thoes loser hang around him on parti. They nobody platform lasted two weeks. and he got kicked out on parti staff too. He lied. He was taking credit for everything and i warn parti they got their karam. KARMA is my best friend it never seems to be failing me with these haters of mine ;) ROLF

The Tate Flip-Flop: From Hit Pieces to DM Stalking

Oh, and don't get me started on his "evolving" opinions. Back in the day, he dropped a full hit-piece video on YouTube (from his alt account – yeah, I downloaded the whole unedited thing) calling Andrew Tate a misogynist pig. all bad name u can think of, right? Now? He's sliding into Tristan Tate's DMs like a groupie, begging for follows until he got it i remember back in 2023 he got super jealous based on his tone that i got oranically discover by TOP T himself cuz i was stream on rumble at time, and he use that follower screenshoot that tristan cave in or maybe his manager follower the joker for him or he just was sick of getting dms from him, He use that when he was live he was saying, that he will have tristan tate on his clown stream collabs, and shoutouts. "Come to my stream, bro!" – as if Tristan's gonna platform a dude who trashed his brother.

I had a straight-up convo with Tristan myself i told him and show him even proof. Tristan tate simple said thank you for showing me this. He has no idea whom this guy is. Which lead to maybe his assistant might follow him– educated him with the facts, shared the proof. Tristan's ride-or-die for Andrew; he'd go to war over an insult word against his brother. No way he'd touch this clown after seeing the full video, i doubt andrew tate seen that video if he did he would block him (not some clipped "out of context" BS). But ExecutiveJoker's out here, DMing everyone in my circle, trying to turn followers against me. Pathetic. Facts don't lie, and my receipts are saved.

Zero Integrity: Snakes, Affairs, and Empty Threats

This isn't just online pettiness – it's a character reveal. While married, he was secretly DM-sliding into other girls inboxes, he got that pedo behavior dm younger girls, he is cuck aswell. Zero morals, zero loyalty. He'll switch personalities faster than channels, mirroring whoever he's leeching off that week. Got a beef with Kick's Santamaria? Sure, I'll call the guy out too (he's got simp vibes, sure so is thejoker and all my haters that from rumble and kick twitch etc. and I've said it to his face on stream). But I don't make it my life living living attacks, no 24/7 harassment. I've got a stream to build, a life to live. I got actual life. This clown his only life is going around clout chase and flip flop and come back in years later suck up with tristan tate he forget that internet is forever and you can easy find alt account and dirt on someone that made hit piece. ;)

Remember that X Space where he meat-ride Santamaria and never gave anyone chance to talk with santamaria and give their feedbacks, then got booted the next day he GOT kicked out of kcip LMAO. nonstop character assassination? that what you desever and should get.

Kick featured him from day one, supported his events– and he repaid them with ungrateful venom. Used other people's bad experiences on kick as his own story. Classic fraud move: point fingers while hiding your own dirt.

And the cowardice? He deletes tweets, scrubs DMs, and folds like a lawn chair at the first sign of heat. Remember his empty "I'll sue you" threats made by ActionMan? (another biggest viewbotter) All clout-chase – followed by DMs begging for a fake beef "for content." Chicken.

Stay Woke: I've Got the Full Expose Dropping Soon

Look, I see snakes from a mile away. I'm 10 steps ahead, screenshots locked and saved because smart cookies don't play checkers – we play chess. This guy's fraudulently pointing fingers while the proof piles up against him. He DMs your followers, whispers poison, then chicken out and claim he was be positive when someone calling him out. When you wake up from the bite, don't come back to me and ask forgiveness and tell me like but....shayy "But he seemed cool!"

Stay away from me. You stay on their lane and i will not forgive or forget. You belong among snakes cuz you one yourself;)

I'm not done. I've already leaked unedited DMs to the people who need to see 'em-no edits, no games. And soon? A full exposé DM leak, dropping all the receipts. Tristan already knows; he's gotten the video, and I've shown him that I know when he starts sucking up, I'll call him out on it. I'm pretty sure he already has-he said multiple times he doesn't know him like that or talk to him. He doesn't know who this clown TheJoker actually is. The Kick staff know, and soon, you will too. Because I don't bullshit anyone. Ask Crayon on Kick. Ask Whiz: I do not fuck around; I tell it exactly how it is.

I don't give a fuck about people's validation. I call anyone out, and I forward their own dirty laundry. All of kick Phase 1, 2, 3 all of them, even Whiz- I called that motherfucker out too. I was just raised to always be straightforward. I think I inherited my dad's personality even more after his passing away. I fear nobody- only God!

When Whiz afraid, to call out TheJoker for all his viewbotting how he sucking up to whiz. Pretty sure they're in DMs with each other, asking not to be part of botted.wtf or they'll be exposed. I already called his Whiz ass out. Like I said, I don't care if you're a friend, enemy, or brother or sister. I will FUCKING hold YOU accountable. I do not take sides- I call out the hypocrisy. If you expect me to be liar and fake friend and not call out your shadyness then you really not friend of mine. You as snake as them!

Always screenshot everything from these people because they have a habit of deleting things that put them in a bad light—and TheJoker, that clown dude who's now sucking up to everyone on Rumble, is a fraud. He will delete anything that contradicts him. But guess what? I play chess. I screenshot everything. So I can just slap that on his smug face :) I learned this from a police officer when I was a kid that another story why he told me that to another time telling that story when i am ready. He told me to always keep proof- that'll be your biggest ammo to debunk people's lies and remove their venom from people's grasp. Receipts do not lie. This why these receipts always used by lawyer. I have sister as cop and she actual study law to be come lawyer until she change her mind want capture criminals then safe them.

Hmm maybe i should be real detective police ngl. 🤔 Even my lawyer say i am pretty good at law and knowing my rights super well and love expose these criminals and people with zero morals.

Pick Me Girls and the Men Who Enable Them

Let me get this straight: I’m not here to sugarcoat it. Pick me girls exist, and honestly, I despise the energy they bring. The ones who scream “I’m not like other girls!” while dragging every woman around them down a peg just to get a guy to notice. And don’t even get me started on the men who eat that up like it’s gourmet food-these guys manipulate, cheat, and lie, and somehow, the pick me keeps orbiting them like it’s cute. Nah. It’s pathetic.

A pick me girl isn’t “unique” or “independent.” She’s performing a highlight reel for male validation. She will:

Diss other women to make herself “better”

Hide or downplay her interests if they aren’t considered “masculine-approved”

Constantly signal that she’s easy to manipulate or control

And the worst part? She acts like this is empowerment. It’s not—it’s internalized insecurity on display.

Men Who Love Pick Me Energy Are Trash Here’s the kicker: pick me girls and the men who orbit them feed off each other’s toxicity. These guys:

Cheat without shame

Gaslight and manipulate

Expect loyalty while giving none

And the pick me? She eats it up like it’s dessert. She’s “okay” with betrayal because she’s been trained to think approval is worth more than respect. It’s sad, it’s wild, and it’s exhausting to watch.

Why I Hate It I hate it because it’s a toxic cycle. Women tear each other down, men take advantage, and nobody learns self-worth. It glorifies being desperate, submissive, and performative over being authentic, self-respecting, and unapologetically human.

Break the Cycle Here’s the truth: stop competing for male validation. Stop excusing manipulation and cheating because “he likes me.” Lift other women up instead of downing them. Respect yourself enough not to orbit a trash planet. Authenticity beats approval any day.

Reality is... Pick me girls aren’t cute. They’re performing a sad reality show that men exploit and society applauds. I’m tired of watching it. Respect yourself, respect your friends, and stop playing the game. Real queens don’t chase cheap crowns. If a man actually respected you, he would love you for who you actually are-your mindset and your opinions. My parents have been my role models. My mother was not a pick me girl. She had her own mindset and her own opinions; they communicated as partners and, of course, fought aswell-no life or marriage is perfect-but they completed each other because both had different take about life and own mindset about things, this why their marriage worked only death split them 12 kids together. This pick me girl energy isn’t cute; that’s why y’all end up in one-night stands. All that pick me energy hasn’t landed you a ring on your finger with the guys you act so much pick me that way toward too. Have some self respect.

kick and twitch the difference

I’m telling you straight, buckle up for this lengthy comment. Many Kick streamers defend the platform simply because they’re receiving handouts. They’ll lie outright to protect their perks. I’m here to tell it like it is. I’m the only genuine streamer on Kick who multi-streams and keeps it real. I’ve stayed authentic since the early days in 2022, and I’m the only one who hasn’t sold out to the platform. I’ll praise them when I see something positive, but if I don’t, I hold them accountable-unlike the meat riders on Kick. Because Kick pays you and gives you attention, you’re suddenly singing their praises. But as OGs of Kick, we have a different story. It’s astonishing how much Kick exploits people, manipulates them, and sucks up to anyone willing to follow their narrative. Those of us who’ve been on Kick longer have been treated differently, and we have our own stories to tell.

Kick is shady. They lie. You’re selling your soul, whether you realize it or not. If you knew what they do behind the scenes and how much they suppress streamers, you’d think twice. You even admitted they gave your partner front-page exposure—that’s proof they’re trying to buy your loyalty. You think they’re better just because they shower you with perks. Kick’s front page is botted—it always has been. Between August 1 and 4, I had a ton of active chatterboxes, but Kick nerfed mine for no reason. I’m the only streamer on Kick who doesn’t bot and has spoken out against viewbotting. Now, staff are targeting me because they don’t want more people telling the truth. Even your own streams on Kick are heavily botted—the chat is just spammed emotes, and it moves much slower than your Twitch chat.

I think Twitch is better, and here’s why. I took a break from Twitch in 2022 to grind on Kick. Twitch never touched my achievements. I could take years off from Twitch, and my stats would still be there. But Kick? They mess with your stats and lie about it. When I asked a prominent Kick streamer, they showed me screenshots proving their stats weren’t touched or reset after 30 days. But when I reached out to support, the staff gave me a generic copy-paste response, claiming it resets after 30 days. Yet, I was in a new month with 68 chatterboxes, and on August 4, they nerfed it to 22. That’s definitely Kick staff’s doing since they control the coding-I can’t influence that. To this day, they haven’t fixed it. I’ve asked every streamer I know on Kick if their stats were ever reset, and they all said no-everything intact. So why only mine? Because they hand-pick people they don’t like, especially those outspoken about their viewbotting problem.

Kick viewbots their front page, and I’ve noticed that when Eddie himself raids, those bots don’t transfer. A front-page streamer I know raided, and none of their front-page viewbots came through because the bots are bought specifically for that channel. A legitimate platform wouldn’t suppress people who speak up about it. On Twitch, I’ve called out streamers for viewbotting, and Twitch never blacklisted or suppressed me-they actually appreciated my reports. On Kick, however, a streamer even showed her viewbotting software live on stream, which trended for both Twitch and Kick. Twitch banned her, but Kick rewarded her with a Stake deal, and to this day, she’s never been banned.

This shows Kick’s lack of integrity. This streamer’s video (copy-paste this link) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mv2RfRCIZQM and her Kick channel still stands: https://kick.com/queengloria.

To this day, she’s still not banned and continues viewbotting on Kick. When Twitch saw that video, there was no question-instant ban for tampering with viewership. But Kick? They reward people like her with partner and verified status.

This has been ongoing since 2022, and now, in 2025, they keep hiding behind the “beta” excuse. Viewbotting violates their own Terms of Service, and that should be non-negotiable. Kick’s TOS changes constantly because they copied it from Twitch, typos and all. I even saw them fix those errors later. They don’t enforce their own rules-it’s all for show. Words mean nothing; actions do. Most Kick moderators are biased. Nothing you report gets addressed-you just get the same copy-paste response every time. Eddie himself is biased. Anyone who challenges him faces defensiveness and suppression. I’ve seen plenty of OG streamers silenced by him personally for calling out Kick’s shady practices. Then Kick goes into damage control, making excuses while inviting only those who align with their narrative. I’ve never seen them bring in anyone unbiased, critical, or independent-only those who play along and keep up the act.

You’ve done zero research on Kick. If you dig deep on X, you’ll find plenty of leaks. Better yet, talk to the Kick OGs who witnessed everything and tried to help the platform. I have screenshots of Kick staff messaging OnlyFans streamers in their chats, telling them to mention the staffer’s name in their partner application emails to get approved faster. That’s favoritism and creates an unfair disadvantage. There are plenty of receipts showing how Kick staff operate, and they do damage control by inviting Twitch streamers to distract from these issues. I remember they had a vouching system for verified channels on Discord, but they purged it to control the narrative and deny it ever existed. I have screenshots of a first-class streamer admitting she used that system to get her friends verified and partnered. Nobody gains anything organically on Kick-it’s either viewbotting, vouching, staff favoritism, or friends already partnered vouching for others. The internet is forever, but people are gullible and don’t do their own research. They suck up to get money, sell their souls, and don’t ask tough questions or hold Kick accountable.

Kick brags about viewbotting, calling it “cope.” They’re unprofessional about it because they know it’s happening. They always bring up Twitch, but we’re not talking about Twitch right now-we’re talking about Kick. They started botting their own platform to boost its visibility, and they’re still doing it, especially on the front page. They even reward people who do it. I know many streamers personally who viewbot to get into KCIP, and I’ve called them out. You have to be someone prominent to get botted, but when you’re a small streamer, their excuse that “someone’s botting you” is absurd. Sites like botted.wtf use Kick’s own public API data to show how many streamers are botting-many of whom are partners. That’s how Kick found some of them in the first place. They know it’s happening; they just don’t care. The creator of botted.wtf even emailed them, offering to fly to their HQ to help fight the problem. Kick declined because they’re complicit. I’ve suggested adding a public viewer list since day one, and I still have all those emails with Kick staff, but they get defensive-because they’re hiding something. If they weren’t, they wouldn’t mind adding a viewer list. People like me, who aren’t gullible, don’t need a viewer list to spot viewbotting. But for those too entrenched to see it, a viewer list would make it obvious. Notice how partnered viewbotting streamers always have an issue with it—they know it would expose them. They also dislike Whiz because he’s exposed them on his list, which uses Kick’s own API data-you can’t fake that. People aren’t blind; they see the chatters are just spamming emotes. Some botters have even admitted to Whiz in private Discord DMs that they’ve botted their Kick chat-he showed me those messages.

Streamers always use the same excuse: “They’re just lurking.” Some have been using that line since 2022, others since 2023. It’s a tired defense—“lurkers,” even when the math doesn’t add up. Ten people typing with 1,000 viewers? Come on. That’s like saying your dog ate your homework. When you reach out to support, you get dismissive copy-paste responses like, “We’ve forwarded this to staff.” I have over a thousand of those emails, and I’m happy to leak them to show how poor Kick’s support is. Most of their staff don’t speak proper English, so they rely on canned replies. These are people hired from failed platforms like DLive and Trovo, who already did a poor job there, which is why those platforms died under their management. Early on, Kick hired streamers as staff with zero experience. The problem lies with Kick’s management. They’re friends with streamers, so they don’t punish them for viewbotting or cheating their way into KCIP or verified status because they don’t do their research. Even platforms like https://streamscharts.com/ count the bots.

Kick’s biggest issue is moderation. They don’t hold anyone accountable, even with proof. The coder who created botted.wtf tried to help Kick because he knows the data better than their staff, who were recruited from failed platforms and barely speak English. Check WhizKick on X for context-he’s posted about it. One Kick staff member even insulted him because he didn’t like WhizKick exposing the truth. Kick staff are clueless-they don’t even realize viewbot numbers are counted on sites like StreamCharts. The platform is run by amateurs. They intentionally suppress and nerf my account but not others, which speaks volumes about their character, especially since I’m the only one not botting. I’ve even been harassed for calling out viewbotters I know are botting. They hand out front-page spots like candy, and those pages are always heavily botted. You can tell by the chat: nothing but repetitive emote spam from the same accounts. Every Kick streamer you click on has botted chats with spammed emotes. Many are live at the same time, using chatbot software to spam emotes for them while they’re mid-game. I’ve personally witnessed one streamer do this to another.

Even big streamers like Nickmercs had the same issue on Kick. But now that he’s back on Twitch, you can see real conversations in his chat. It’s laughable how gullible some Twitch streamers are. The moment they get a front-page spot or an invite to talk with the CEO and Santamaria, they’re instantly manipulated—because they’re new and unaware of Kick’s history or ongoing issues. I was all in at the start, but I’ve seen too much, and I’m still seeing it now. They don’t want me to grow or get verified because I’ve been outspoken against viewbotting. Meanwhile, streamers who get vouched for, simp for staff, or kiss up get fast-tracked. They don’t like me because I see through them. They claim people “don’t respect the platform,” but it’s because of their shady practices. This is why major sponsors and big companies avoid them. Instead, they use smaller streamers as bait to lure in big names. They’ve never been for us-all they care about is buying loyalty and showering people with perks.

All the OGs got screwed over by Kick. Now, the so-called “first class” and “second class” streamers are starting to complain about the same treatment. I’ve been trying to tell them: Kick has never been on your side. They just use people to get to the ones they really want. When they landed Adin Ross, Asmongold, and xQc, they made it clear how little they care about small streamers. The truth is, Kick would be nothing without us. It’s ironic to see streamers who never got front-page or verified status organically now complaining that Kick purged the Discord because they lost easy access to staff. This proves my point about how these streamers get things handed to them.

I’d rather keep Twitch as my main platform, like always, and multi-stream from there—at least Twitch is transparent about splitting. They don’t viewbot their own platform like Kick does. If someone gets caught viewbotting on Twitch, they face consequences. Yes, some of Twitch’s rules are flawed, but I’d still take that over Kick’s shady operations. Every time you bring up viewbotting on Kick, they deflect and mention Twitch. We’re not talking about Twitch—we’re talking about Kick. Why backpedal? Yes, Twitch has botters too, but they ban them when reported and caught. Take QueenGloria’s case: a 4K clip showed her botting live on stream. On Twitch, that’s an instant ban, no debate. On Kick? Nothing. No problem at all. I wouldn’t be surprised if Kick suggested that botting site to her in emails. They’re capable of it-they bot their own platform to inflate numbers. I know verified Kick accounts belonging to people who have never streamed a day in their lives. Why would those accounts be verified unless Kick is verifying bot accounts to brag about their “huge number of verified users”? I’ve reported those accounts with zero stats, but Kick hasn’t banned them or fixed the issue. Meanwhile, accounts on X are selling “Kick verification” to anyone. There’s a lot of shady stuff going on that people refuse to believe-mostly because they’re too busy enjoying free perks and attention.

Kick loves silencing people. They suppress anyone who speaks up and protect those who align with them. Those getting perks are quick to shut down anyone with a different story because I don’t kiss up to get handouts. They defend their perks, but when things don’t go their way, they cry about purged Discord channels or not getting front-page spots. They’re ungrateful, even after getting everything handed to them. I keep it real. I don’t drag other creators down or die for a platform like they do. They love to blame Kick’s victims-those who get treated poorly for no reason, just for following the rules and not botting like other streamers or the platform itself. When things go wrong, Kick doesn’t care. Just like Twitch didn’t care when Doc, Nickmercs, or other big creators left. No platform needs any creator—they’d be fine without us. But when creators attack others for sharing their stories about how Kick treats them, they’re the first to defend because they’re getting paid and told by staff to go to war for them. There was even a Discord channel where admins held meetings and told people to harass me. An ex-Kick staff member came forward and revealed how staff openly said racist things behind the scenes, but Eddie did damage control. Now, more people are noticing as KCIP members on X complain about not getting their way with Kick anymore. When we OGs from 2022 tried to warn them about how Kick exploits and uses them, they didn’t listen. Now I can say, “I told you so.” They deserve what’s coming for all the harm they’ve done to me. Karma’s real, isn’t it?

The real problem is people selling their integrity for a platform that doesn’t care about them once they get the streamers they want. They’ll attack creators grinding hard just to protect their Kick perks. These streamers are narcissistic-willing to lie for the platform to keep their front-page spots or Stake deals. I miss when creators supported each other and didn’t turn on one another for platforms that drop them as soon as they get who they want or when things go south. Kick has never been for small streamers. They always planned to use us to get to bigger fish. They bring in Twitch streamers who don’t care about the platform-just looking to get paid. When things slow down and their chats are botted, they bounce back because sponsorships aren’t coming in. No big company wants to touch Kick because of the degeneracy, lack of accountability, and rampant botting. Kick streamers clout-chase hard, cozying up to people like Kai Cenat to boost their image or seem legit. Small companies or energy drink brands don’t mean much. Major players like Samsung, Elgato, and others look to Twitch, YouTube, and some to X. Orgs simp hard because some female streamers blatantly viewbot-you can tell by the emote spam and dead, slow chats, way too slow for their claimed viewer counts. These orgs and smaller energy drink companies don’t do their research either. I’ve seen so much clout-chasing from Kick streamers because they’re not getting real opportunities-because Kick never addresses allegations and refuses to change. They’re a brand risk. If I were Samsung, Elgato, or Monster Energy, I wouldn’t touch them either. That’s just business.

After three years, Kick still hasn’t improved or built a reputation that companies can trust for deals. Early on, streamers complained about Kick cons and begged for events instead of building a solid reputation to earn drops organically. Getting drops on Kick isn’t easy—companies don’t hand out games for free. Many streamers don’t understand how business works. For Twitch, it took years to get drops because they have policies and don’t tolerate degeneracy or constant viewbotting. Companies watch closely, and Kick rewards bots instead of stopping them. Kick streamers clout-chase because they’re struggling to get things organically, and Kick’s reputation is poor. That’s on them-they refuse to improve or elevate the platform.

I’ve been suggesting features while others begged for handouts. I still have all the emails between me and Kick. I suggested channel points, name tags in titles, and a better dashboard. Early on, an admin visited my chat, and I showed them in detail how we should be able to move tabs. Even Santamaria screenshot my suggestion to edit channel points. Every time Santamaria goes live, I see Kick partners sucking up to him. I haven’t seen them make suggestions-all I see is a “me, me, me” attitude. I have emails proving how much I’ve contributed to feature feedback. While others in those purged Discords asked for favors and features, I’ve never been featured or asked for handouts. Everyone’s selling their souls on Kick. I’d rather have zero or one viewer than bots watching me like them. You can tell by their faces-entire Kick streamers rely on gifted subs from Eddie because of how much they suck up to him. They live off gifted subs since there are no ads, and not everyone is keen to subscribe. Their regulars gift chats, and many KCIP members post on X that not everyone makes much money either. You have to be glued to your chair with no life to make significant money, and that’s unhealthy.

No streamer has ever blown up from Kick. Bringing in established Twitch streamers isn’t impressive. Pokimane called out Kick for importing Twitch stars instead of building their own community, and I agree with her. Sure, some big Twitch names bring followers wherever they go, but no Kick streamer has gone from small to big on the platform—no one has reached Kai Cenat or Adin Ross’s level. That hasn’t happened, and it’s 100% Kick’s fault. They’re so focused on pulling Twitch streamers that they don’t grow their own creators. With all the bots lurking, it’s nearly impossible to break out organically on Kick. Most Kick streamers get deals through other social media because Kick isn’t listed on partnership or sponsorship applications. When I applied for Epic or Ubisoft, Kick wasn’t an option. I got my partnerships through Twitch. I’ve spoken to Epic and Ubisoft- they focus on Twitch, YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. Kick’s not on their radar. Kick streamers lie about getting deals through Kick- I know they use other platforms to land those. Legit company applications ask for your Twitch, Instagram, or TikTok handle never Kick. That’s just facts.

It’s all Kick’s fault. They refuse to change despite knowing about the massive botting problem and rewarding it. When Myron discussed it publicly on his podcast and solo stream, exposing Kick’s fake views, it didn’t help their case. People watch these big creators and see why companies won’t touch Kick. They won’t revoke KCIP or verified status from those who gained it through botting or vouching, so companies don’t trust them. That’s how business works. Companies don’t want to be scammed or give free products to creators who cheat to get ahead. Only small, lesser-known energy drink companies will deal with them because they’re desperate. Big companies like Twitch, YouTube, and TikTok enforce bans for breaking Terms of Service. Viewbotting is illegal, and the FTC is on Twitch’s case-that’s why they added “tampering with viewership” as a report category. Kick does nothing about it because it’s covered by Stake. As a non-American company, Kick may avoid dealing with the shady stuff. Plus, Kick’s tied to Stake, a gambling-heavy site heavily pushed on the platform. Every Kick deal comes with gambling attached. Nickmercs, for example, wasn’t a gambling streamer on Twitch but had to start because it’s in his Kick contract. The same applies to any Twitch streamer who returned—they had to gamble because it’s heavily enforced. Anyone with a Kick or Stake deal, even if they’re not into gambling, gets pulled in. I’ve seen kids gambling live on Kick, and they did nothing about it. Yet they wonder why people criticize them.

Twitch degenerates flocked to Kick because they couldn’t get away with viewbotting there. Twitch denied their partnership applications. I know a first-class Kick partner who complained because she was botting on Twitch too, and they rejected her. Those not caught haven’t been reported yet. But Twitch now posts on X that they’ll combat viewbotters. Twitch will act if you press them, but Kick refuses they backpedal and bring up Twitch when we’re discussing Kick’s failure to enforce against viewbotters. Some lost their Twitch partnership right after getting partnered on Kick. If you haven’t lost yours, you’re lucky-Twitch just hasn’t noticed your Kick deal yet. But once someone reports you with proof of your Kick partnership, you’ll lose it. Twitch allows multi-streaming, but you can’t openly promote Kick while under contract with both. Good luck when they come for you or pray they don’t notice. Many “first-class” Kick members lost their Twitch badges upon getting Kick partnered. Some no longer have their checkmarks, and others are just waiting to get caught.

Kick should be a backup, a multi-stream platform. Twitch and YouTube should be the main stage for legit deals and sponsorships or to be taken seriously. I’m ready for the Kick defenders and simps to flood my comments. If this even gets approved knowing how many get perks from Kick but suppress real talk while they preach freedom of speech on their streams but silence the truth. As long as they’re riding Kick’s coattails, they know they’ll get their perks and front-page spots. This is what happens when streamers sell their integrity for a front-page spot and a few bucks per hour streamed. I’m pretty sure this comment won’t even go through, especially since you’re getting paid by Kick.

You need do deep research X has all the leaks of how kick staff been giving hands out also if watch Santamaria u can quickly notice all kcip meat riding. lots of emote spam chatbots.

Life Update ✨

I'm finally getting fully settled in soon. The last room is actually my setup room. The kitchen and bedroom are done. The only thing missing is the bed, which I can’t afford right now. Both closets are filled. Now it’s just the office/setup room left.

In the meantime, I’m setting up the alarm and security system-someone’s coming next week to handle that for me. I have to wait on garage security until I get an internet connection run out there. Then I can set up security there too.

There’s still some small stuff left in the living room. It’s just me moving boxes around and opening them. Everything will be settled soon, and I’ll finally see the living room floor.

Balcony furniture will have to wait-probably next year I can really enjoy it, especially since I’m getting a Weber grill too next year summer. I’ve got way more space than I’ve had the past seven years in old apartment.

I can finally feel at home now. No more cluttered paper boxes around my bedroom or setup room. I’ve got a storage unit inside the house, plus a tiny room in my office room that I use for cleaning products and storing extra food that doesn’t need to go in the fridge or freezer-also laundry products. I love my bathroom is big enough have my washing machine in there. I don't like sharing. I love everything is near me. Neighborhood is super nice. Around nature. After I am settle I will go for hours walk to get know the streets and learn the road to the stores.

I’ll get back to content creation in July. I need this whole month to finish settling in, relax, and recover from the pain. My body’s super sore from lifting heavy stuff. Financially, it’s a mess-this move created a lot of bills because of the contract with my old apartment. I have to juggle bills and delay some things until I’m back on track.

I’ve got a lot of overdue bills. Now that I live on a new street, I need to secure my home. I need this security system. Luckily, the company I’m going with is open to splitting the bill and delaying part of it. I used this company years ago when I lived in a similar house-they were so kind.

I told them I wanted the package setup to be black, with two pink and two black key fobs. He giggled and said he’d make sure I get the color combo I want. That’s just the feminine side of me. Pink isn’t my favorite color, but I like having a cute keychain-and it’s easy to recognize what it’s for. This company is amazing. Best in Norway, honestly.

I also need to get a doorbell with a camera for the apartment. Things are slowly coming together-starting to feel homey. I plan to live here for more than 7 years, unless the landlord decides to move in himself. I want to stay here until I’ve saved enough money to buy my own house.

I’ll probably end up buying a place around here. I’ve seen some really nice, affordable houses in this area. Oslo? That’s just for doctor appointments or spa treatments-I’ve never been a city girl. I’m from the countryside in Iran, surrounded by farms and nature. I’m a freakin’ Taurus-it’s in my blood. I just can’t live where it’s crowded and full of bad energy.

I love living in a good environment, in a family-friendly and much safer city. I live in an area where neighbors look out for each other, and there are dogs that bark at unfamiliar faces-makes it easy to tell if someone’s acting sus. I already said hi to my neighbor below me; she has more than one dog that barks a lot. I even offered to babysit if she ever needs help.

I’m only allowed to have visiting dogs-not allowed to own one myself :/ I’ve told a lot of people that my last apartment didn’t allow dogs either, and I lived there for 7 years. Renting just sucks when it comes with those pet rules, especially when the apartment doesn’t even come furnished. Like, what exactly is going to get ruined? The floor? And even then, it’s not like I’d let anything sit there- plus the dog would be potty trained, and I’d take it for walks.

I really, really want a dog :/ A dog would help me on so many levels. I guess I was just born to be petless. Back in Iran, I had pets-so many animals-and that’s why life has felt empty without them. I’d rather have a dog. I’ve dated, but I never really enjoyed being with the people I dated. I love dogs more than boyfriends. More than humans, honestly.

I’ve got more love and respect for animals than I do for people. There, I said it. Animals are just so pure and kind. Best believe that. I’m a dog person, and they say dogs are a human’s best friend for life.

My life’s been flipped upside down, and I miss my childhood. All those animals I had back in Iran brought more joy to my life than anything in adulthood has. There’s just something about animals- words don’t do it justice. Some of them show more humanity in a single day than most people do in a lifetime.

The Frustration of Dealing with Unprofessional Landlords

Renting an apartment can be a stressful process, especially when you’re a responsible tenant armed with a polished application, verified credit checks, and glowing references. You’d expect landlords to appreciate the effort, but too often, you’re met with silence, excuses, or outright unprofessionalism. From ignoring messages to choosing short-term tenants for supposedly long-term rentals, some landlords make the process unnecessarily frustrating. Here’s why this behavior is a problem and what tenants can do about it.

The Ghosting Game: Ignoring Messages Without a Reply

Picture this: you find a promising rental listing, spend hours crafting a professional application, and hit send with high hopes. The landlord sees your message-you can tell from the read receipt or platform notification-but days pass with no response. Not even a polite “Sorry, the apartment is rented.” Just silence.

This isn’t just rude; it’s lazy. Responding to a message takes minutes, yet some landlords can’t be bothered. They peek at your application, decide you’re not their pick, and move on without a word. For tenants, this ghosting is demoralizing. You’ve invested time and effort, only to be left wondering if your application was even considered. A simple acknowledgment would go a long way, but too many landlords lack the basic courtesy to provide it.

Failing to Update Ads: A Four-Second Fix Ignored

Another common issue is landlords who fail to update their rental ads. You message about an apartment, only to hear-days later, if at all-that it’s already rented. Why wasn’t the ad marked as unavailable? Updating a listing takes seconds, often doable right from a phone. Yet, some landlords leave ads active, wasting tenants’ time and raising false hopes.

This laziness doesn’t just frustrate applicants; it reflects poorly on the landlord’s ability to manage a property. If they can’t handle a simple ad update, how will they deal with maintenance requests or lease agreements? Tenants deserve better than this half-hearted approach.

Choosing Short-Term Tenants for Long-Term Rentals

Perhaps the most baffling behavior is when landlords claim they want long-term tenants but choose renters who stay only a few months. You submit an application showcasing your stability-verified credit, solid references, and a desire to stay for years-yet the landlord picks someone who moves out shortly after. This makes no sense for a property advertised as a long-term rental.

Why does this happen? Some landlords skip proper tenant screening, prioritizing quick deals over quality. They might choose the first applicant who responds, even if their background suggests they’re not in it for the long haul. Others may not verify tenants’ intentions or financial stability, leading to a revolving door of short-term renters. This not only disrupts the landlord’s income but also frustrates tenants who were ready to commit long-term and got overlooked.

The Bigger Picture: A Lack of Accountability

At the heart of these issues is a lack of accountability. Some landlords act as if renting is a side hustle they can half-ass without consequences. They don’t communicate clearly, sometimes barely speaking the local language, making it hard to trust their judgment. When you call to follow up, you might get vague excuses or a dismissive “It’s rented.” Worse, you’re left wondering if they even checked the chosen tenant’s papers or references.

This unprofessionalism isn’t just annoying-it’s unfair. Tenants put in significant effort to present themselves as reliable, only to be ignored or outdone by less qualified applicants. Landlords need to step up: screen tenants properly, respond to messages, and update ads promptly. If managing a rental is too much work, they should hire a professional property manager or reconsider renting altogether.

Your unprofessionalism and lack of accountability cause you to rent to first person was in viewing without background check. You skipped a reliable tenant with five years of solid references, eager for long-term renting. That’s your loss- hope those you chose don’t stay, in long term and don't pay the bills in time. that will reflecting your poor mindset.

"I’ve found a couple of houses, and they replied promptly about viewings. One landlord called right after reading my application, checked my references and credit report, and confirmed fiber internet. He’s keen to rent to me. I’ll view his large house with a garage soon. That’s professionalism-carefully selecting the right tenant, not just renting to the first viewer without considering better options"

Wish me luck, and I hope that cold landlord just few mins ago, unprofessional landlord who rudely just peak the message. faces karma for their lazy, careless behavior.

Life’s Testing Me Again - Right Before My Birthday

Anxiety is through the roof right now. Like, sky-high. Anything - literally anything - can set me off. The wrong word, the wrong glance, the wrong question. Boom - spiraling. And you know what? I’m done pretending I’m fine.

If you’re family, or acquaintance or friend of mine don’t come at me sideways.

Don’t be judgmental or try school me. Don't gaslight me with “intentions.” Right now, I need prayer, support, and help packing. if you a family That’s it. Nothing more. Nothing less. That all a family can be there for me for the packing and clean this apartment and settle in new house. And they can go by their own life.

This shitty thing happened to me: I lived here for five years. Five years of scraping by, surviving, breathing life into a space I made my own. I got this apartment in pure survival mode - when I was inches from being homeless. It wasn’t glamorous. It was tough. But it was mine. And now? I’m losing it.

Not because I failed. Not because I disrespected the blessing. But because life just... rips shit out of your hands sometimes, no matter how tightly you’re holding on.

I don’t need anyone’s judgment. I don’t need questions like, “Why are you moving so far?” I need a roof over my head, period. When you’re fighting to stay afloat, location snobbery doesn’t mean shit. Peace means more. Safety means more. Having fiber internet, a store nearby, buses and trains — that’s my checklist now. Not some fantasy about staying in the city that didn’t even have my back when I needed it most.

And y’all didn’t visit anyway. Five years. You came when it was convenient for you. Never for me.

I’m tired. I’m tired of carrying the weight of my own survival and dodging guilt trips at the same time. I tried to leave before, and my own mother told me, "talk me out of it and said won't find better." Bet your ass I did. Just not in the city I grow up in. Sacrifices have to be made when you want peace more than you want proximity.

Even my landlord was sad about this when they gave me the news. Said I was the best and the most nicest and honest person tenant they ever had. Always pay rent on time no drama no sound nothing and super disciplined and amazing communication

Told me not to ever think this was my fault. It’s not because I was bad — it’s because their daughter needed the space.

It’s not fair. It’s not right.

But that’s life. Sometimes it punches you in the teeth even when you were playing by all the rules.

And what makes it worse? This all hit me a WEEK before my birthday. Literally the worst month for it to happen.

Norway’s tough enough in April - weather’s still shitty, energy’s low, costs are high - and now I’m out here going to fighting for an apartment, stressing, packing, cleaning, moving.

Trying to hold my life together with bloody knuckles.I’ve got two debts I'm still paying off. almost debt free i had plan here.

One almost gone when come to my debt, but the other things dragging behind me like a broken chain. I had a plan - to stay, save up, and finally grab my own piece of the world. AKA house. So i just need do that from new place.

Now? That plan’s on fire. And I’m rebuilding from the ashes in real time. Packing after five years of my life a place i could finally call home feels like a funeral. Every box I tape shut is a goodbye. Every scrub of the floors is another goodbye.

And not a single person is here helping me carry the weight. I found this apartment in the blink of an eye — pure luck. I almost went homeless once, and I never want to feel that way again. If I don’t secure a new place within the next three months, I'm fucked. I have nobody to turn to.

My family always looks away when I need them, but expects me to show up when they need something. The second I told them what was happening, they all went super quiet. So no - I’m not going to feel bad, and I’m sure as hell not going to listen if they start bugging me about moving to a city far away from them.

MFERS - I lived near them for five years and they never visited ONCE. Mom only came around when it was convenient for her.

So honestly? I don’t give a fuck if I move far away. That’s exactly what I want - distance. They were never there for me anyway.

My dad was my safety net. When he passed, I lost the only parent who truly had my back. I’ve always been the black sheep of the family - just like he was.

Each time I moved, my dad was my rock. He helped however he could -even if it was just staying on the phone for an hour, believing in me, telling me I could do anything. He always said, "You can always come home when you need to."

When I lived in Oslo as a student, I was home at my parents for six months out of the year and at my own place for the other six. It worked because he was there, keeping the door open.

When he died, everything fell apart. Not even a month after he passed, my big sister threw me out. I haven’t spoken to her since.

When the cops showed up because of the drama my 3rd big sister caused, they said straight up:

"Y'all are shitty siblings. The fact that your mother - the elder of the house - didn’t even speak up? She just lost her father, and y’all couldn’t wait to toss her out." When you as sister don't even have right say anything in this matter you don't even live in this house. how can walk in here and make that call to toss her out. So they worry for my own safty and took me out of that fucking house put me into foster home for while til found my own place.

Exactly what the cops said. Word for word. that when i had find quickly apartment while living in foster home. which didn't last long and also this current apartment found in stress of moment too.

They waited for that moment - because while my dad was alive, they couldn’t touch me. He was my shield. My protector. The only parent who loved me for real, without conditions.

Anyone who tried to harm me had to get through him first. He protected his daughter like a wolf guarding his own - because he knew the jealousy that ran deep in that house.

I was his favorite - not because of favoritism, but because we understood each other. We were both black sheep. We were both honest, loyal, and respected each other.

I obeyed his house rules. I never acted out like my other sister, who had no respect for him or his home. I was one of his good daughters - like my other big sister was too, she got married and found her dream man.

And now here I am. Still standing. Still fighting.

Carrying it all without him. I had to build an entire wall around myself, because he used to be my wall. When he passed, that’s when I lost my purpose - my safety net.

I had to figure it out alone. But he raised me so well that I’m capable of carrying on without him. Even if it breaks me sometimes.

I haven’t moved on. Not really. just bottle all pain deep down. I refuse let him go! i will move on when i meet him again!

Life without him is still the hardest thing I faced. And this month - it always cuts the deepest. It just got a little worse this year - more stress, more weight stacked onto my shoulders. with this temporary i have to move out and find new apartment because in Norway these two months always hardest. And super expensive!

Life can throw every damn storm it wants - I’ll keep walking through it with pain.

Because I have no other choice. Because I believe - even on the days it feels like a joke - that somehow, somewhere, I’m headed toward something better i hope and wish for!

This isn’t the ending, i hope! It’s just another brutal, unfair chapter. That came out of my control!

And trust I'm gonna try survive this. Like I always do. Like I always fucking will.

It’s just... this is the last fucking thing I needed.

All this stress. Moving ain't no fun.

Even if I secure a new apartment, it’s the settling in that wrecks you - Getting used to a strange place, losing more sleep because everything feels unfamiliar. It’s like...

BOTTOM LINE: I am a turtle, a black cat (especially a rescue or stray), a hedgehog, and an owl - all rolled into one. I don’t just "adapt." I feel everything first, I analyze, I guard myself, and I only open up when the energy feels right.

That’s survival. That’s wisdom. That’s strength.

It takes time to get used to a new place. The first month is always the hardest - until the walls stop feeling foreign, until the silence stops feeling empty, until you finally feel home again.

DM Disasters: Why You Need to Learn How to Talk to Women 🛑

Let’s talk about something that’s been irritating me lately -guys who have absolutely no clue how to approach a woman. I’m Persian, living in Norway, and just trying to make friends online. But instead, I keep running into these clowns who think they can win me over with the most off-putting, cringe-worthy messages. Spoiler alert: This is exactly why you’ll never get a girl like me.

The latest disaster? Some guy named Ahmed slid into my DMs, and within minutes of saying hello, he’s calling me “beautiful,” asking about massages, and talking about marriage. Excuse me? We just started talking, and you’re already acting like I’m your wife? 🤢 I told him I’m only here for friends, but clearly, he didn’t get the memo. Instead, he doubled down with his creepy vibes, thinking that’s the way to my heart. Newsflash: It’s not. It’s the fastest way to get blocked.

This isn’t just about one guy-it’s about a whole type of guy. The ones who think throwing around pet names like “beautiful” or “baby” is going to make me swoon. The ones who come on way too strong, acting like they own me before even knowing me. The ones who can’t hold a respectful conversation to save their lives. Let me be crystal clear: This behavior is a massive turn-off. It’s desperate, it’s immature, and it’s why you’ll never stand a chance with someone like me.

I know what I want, and it’s not this nonsense. I’m into older men-real gentlemen who actually know how to treat a woman. Men who don’t need to resort to cheesy nicknames or weird, forward comments to get my attention. I’m talking about the kind of man who can have a proper conversation, who respects my boundaries, and who knows how to act with class. Not some boy who thinks “massage therapist” is a pickup line. If you can’t bring that energy, don’t even step into my inbox.

So, to the guys out there who act like this: Do better. Learn how to talk to women with respect. Stop with the nicknames, stop with the creepy vibes, and stop thinking you can fast-track your way into my life with your awkward, pushy messages. I’m not here for your games, and I’m definitely not here to teach you how to be a man—that’s your mom job or you need grow the fuck up. If you can’t figure it out, don’t be surprised when you get left on read or blocked. I’m a queen, and I deserve a gentleman, not a clown.

To the ladies reading this: Don’t settle for these types. Know your worth and demand respect. And to the next guy thinking about messaging me: Take a long, hard look at yourself. If you can’t bring respect and maturity to the table, don’t even try. I’m not interested. 💅

🔥MESSAGE TO KICK STAFF & ADMINS (at the top of the blog post, loud and clear)

💬 Message to Kick Staff: Let’s Talk

To the Kick team- mods, admins, whoever's pulling the strings behind the curtain:

This is bigger than hurt feelings. This is about suppression, favoritism, and the open secret of viewbotting that you continue to ignore while punishing creators like me who speak up. You removed my achievement milestones with zero explanation, while others- some of them literal cheaters-got to keep theirs. I've submitted reports, evidence, screenshots, logs, all the receipts. And what did I get? NPC copy-paste replies and silence.

I’ve been with Kick since 2022. Day one. Built everything from the ground up. No bots. No shortcuts. Just pure hustle. But lately, it’s felt like I’ve got a target on my back just for calling things out.

Let me say it straight: this ain’t just negligence. This personal.

Support tickets go nowhere. The same biased staff respond every time. I've got logs. I've got timelines. If needed, I’ll leak it all. My support were ignored. Viewbotters I reported are still verified and thriving-some of them literally shown using bot software on stream. Nothing happened.

If your idea of “creator support” is brushing real problems under the rug and punishing the ones speaking truth? Then maybe it’s time people know what’s really going on behind the green logo.

📝 The Blog Post: "The Mask Is Off: My Truth as a Day-One Kick Creator

I didn’t want to write this. I wanted to believe in Kick. I wanted this platform to be different. But when silence becomes suffocation, the only thing left to do is speak louder.

I've been on Kick since 2022. Day one. I didn't migrate from Twitch or follow a wave-I was part of the tide that helped this place rise. From scratch, with no bots, no help, no clout handed down. Just community, consistency, and hours of unpaid work.

So when I say I’ve been suppressed by this platform, I don’t say it lightly.

🎯 What Happened to Me

Out of nowhere, Kick removed all my achievement milestones-without reason. These weren’t just stats. They were proof of the grind. And guess what? Other streamers? They got to keep theirs. I talked to multiple people on kick . Their metrics carried over just fine.

So why me?

It’s impossible not to feel targeted. Especially when botters are getting checkmarks and platforms like mine-organic, honest, loyal-are being stripped down. Especially when people like Gloria, openly boot up viewbotting software live on Twitch and only plafrom whom took action while kick rewards her, and still walk into Kick with open arms and full support. Make it make sense. and many other people swatbest (botting just get verified since his boys got like that) peteycottonmouth, lilskamlive etc... and petey and lilskam yet verified through that botting even kick knows about this and fully aware their metric is based on lies.

🚨 The Viewbot Epidemic

Let’s talk about PeteyCottonmouth, Swatbest, and the army of botted chat accounts they ride in on. The same clowns who brag in Discord about running alt accounts and restreaming people’s content to weaponize it against them. I banned Swatbest for harassment and suddenly? My viewership tanked. He cried in Discord. Then? Viewbot attacks.

And Kick? I gave you everything-screenshots, logs, timestamps. What did I get? i am happy leak all support have with kick and so people can see how actual kick staff acting.

"We’ve forwarded this to the correct team.”

Weeks passed. Months. Those same botted accounts? Still active. Still protected. The ones doing the dirty work? Still verified. Still on front page. Still untouched.

🥀 Where’s the Accountability?

I watched Kick grow. I stayed loyal while others laughed it off as a Twitch knockoff. I believed in KCIP, in the dream of a platform where creators actually mattered.

Instead, what I found was:

Admins messaging mostly female streamers privately, encouraging them to apply for verification. if they mention their name which Andrew you guilty of doing yourself. lets not deny that.

Verification given not based on merit, but on social circles—a Discord fast-pass system.

Botters openly thriving while those reporting them get ghosted.

I’ve seen names like TheJoker flip-flop, break every rule, slander other creators, get removed from KCIP, and still walk away verified. You know what would've happened if I did that? I'd be banned before I could blink. if did half shit most these mf has pulled. But yet i am getting suppressed and you guys remove all my hard work milestone and its time everyone knows this how you treated your OG from 2022 THAT getting robbed daily basic.

🧩 Let’s Be Honest: It’s a Rigged System

I've seen the inner circles. The favoritism. The bias. Verified accounts that don't stream, that have fewer followers than me on their social media most botted followers on IG and they get verified, still got the badge. Why? Because they knew someone. Or because someone on staff liked eddie or you andrew aka santamaria.

There’s even a public website by Whiz built on kick API, showing who's clearly viewbotting. You can't even say it's speculation—it’s data. And still, you do nothing.

So no- this isn’t “drama.” This is a culture problem.

💔 To Other Creators: This Could Happen to You

If you're on Kick and you think staying quiet will protect you? Think again. The second you speak out, you become a threat. Your numbers dip. Your reports disappear into a void. Your milestones vanish.

That’s what happened to me.

And if you think I’m bitter? Nah. I’m awake. There’s a difference. i was robbed since day one and still getting robbed as people walk on kick and get verified without earn it or people not even active streamers.

💀 Kick’s Soul for Sale? wanna eat shit to get shit.

Is that really how you want to be remembered- as a creator who sold their soul just to sleep well at night, robbing from others while hoping the same never happens to you?

That’s not the legacy of a real one. That’s the path to irrelevance. You’ll fall into the void, forgotten. Because no one respects a narcissist who stood silent while others were wronged- just because you had a checkmark and a KCIP badge.

If that’s your stance, then may God bless your soul- because karma’s got a perfect memory.

God will remember the creator who stood by and said nothing while others were robbed of what they earned through loyalty, grind, and integrity. You may be thriving now, but that spotlight fades fast—especially when people realize you never once stood up for what’s right. You never challenged the system. You just played your part and kept your mouth shut.

When that happens? You're no better than the platforms we all left behind- Rumble, Twitch. You become a hypocrite. Just another Joker, shouting “me, me, me” while fellow creators are silenced, struggling, and buried beneath injustice.

As long as you’re fed and you can sleep, it’s “fuck everyone else,” right?

Mothers with mouths to feed. Creators with bills to pay. People who gave their all for this platform while it gave them nothing in return.

Yeah- fuck them, huh? my fellow creators?

I don’t care if this pisses people off. I’m not here to kiss ass or chase clout. I’m here to tell the truth.

Because when creators who've done nothing wrong get punished, and people who game the system get protected because they choose sell their morals and principles and meat ride over money , that’s when the mask slips.

And you know what’s underneath?

A creator who’s willing to sell their soul for numbers and a platform that won’t lift a finger when shit hits the fan—is playing a dangerous game. These companies don’t care about you. They’re a business, and businesses always protect themselves. But the fellow creators who feel your pain? They’re your real community and you chose not to stand with them.

When push comes to shove, and legal action is on the table, trust and believe: they’ll throw you straight into the lion’s den to save their own skin. If Kick ever gets legally forced to expose who the botters are in FTC for example and who enabled it, they’ll fold in a heartbeat and some of y’all verified and KCIP creators are so gullible, thinking this company will have your back when the fire starts. U dumbest person on this planet.

🗣️ Final Words

To Kick: you had a chance to build something real. You had a community willing to stand by you. But instead of protecting your foundation, you chose to reward the fakes.

I don’t care if this gets me blacklisted. Because the truth? Deserves the light.

I’m not afraid to speak it.

I never was.

✊🏼 Stand up. Speak out. The real ones are watching. I will expose any platform's wrongdoings, and those creators who ride the wave just to sleep well at night. Let’s make sure people know exactly who they’re supporting and watching.

Don't pick kick. PICK YOUR MORALS and stick with it. But if degen bad human being ofc u just like them.
