So Dreamkazper came back today and I cant believe people are defending a literal pedophile.
Sorry for only posting this after being inactive for 8974248 months but I’m fucking reeling at this. This is OWHotTakes level of stupid. This take is complete fucking garbage. Like imagine being this stupid. Imagine.
honestly in light of all the things coming up in the Dreamkazpar issue:
dear young and underage Overwatch, especially OWL fans
please be cautious around adults. both in fandom (especially if they are big name fans) and also on the creator side. and I am not saying this to try to ham anyone’s fun, but please. the majority may be perfectly nice people, but a) you can never know and b) there are predators in every single fandom/scene.
I have seen this back when I was a minor in fandom spaces and even with all the awareness we have nowadays it has honestly not really gotten any better. Today I have an almost teenage-aged daughter who is also into OWL and you can probably guess that this is horrifying on several levels.
there will always be adults that are deliberately preying on young people. and additionally there is a bunch of adults with simply no sense of boundaries on top of it. and it should be their responsibility to not expose you to anything harmful but some of them don’t care and some of them are literal shit.
so please be careful. check for red flags. don’t be afraid to cut contact immediately if you feel uncomfortable. talk to other people about it. an adult that you trust in your offline life, friends, anyone. do not, DO NOT EVER let any adult convince you to “keep a secret” in terms of your interactions.
i know firsthand how fucking flattering it is, how good it feels to the own ego when someone so much older, someone you look up to or someone you adore tells you you are “so much smarter and more mature than others of your age” or that they “don’t even feel like talking to someone younger when talking to you”.
These tactics tend to work especially well on people who feel alienated from people in their age group sometimes. we soak that shit up like water in the desert.
Honestly one of the biggest pieces of advice I can give you in regard to OWL players specifically? As harsh as this sounds: Don’t talk to them. Don’t chat with them, don’t interact with them in any way outside of official venues like fanmeets etc. They are adult (if sometimes very immature) men and no matter what they might say - you have actually nothing in common with them. The format of streaming makes them seem accessible but you actually don’t know the person behind the pc at all, no matter what watching their stream will make you think. they are strangers. and any interaction that goes beyond regular fan interaction should be taken with a huuuuuge grain of salt. And even if the 14 year old you is convinced you can handle and navigate all this just fine - believe me, the 20 year old you will probably look back one day and ask how the hell adults can be this horrible and why on earth no one ever stopped things.
tl:dr people are shit - please be careful and take care of yourself first!
fuck ANY of yall who blame the 14 year old girl in this situation. she was manipulated by an adult in a position of power who was fully aware of her age
Dreamkazper of the Boston Uprising has been suspended indefinitely due to recent allegations brought against him. These allegations include propositioning an underage girl. The Overwatch League and Boston Uprising have launched an investigation into the matter but it is incredibly unlikely Dreamkazper will be returning to the team.
