An Open Letter To Randbot
I realize many of you including Randbot believe I made the wrong choice to go public about my issues with payment schedules and my demand on a show percentage.
I admit, it was calculated. The truth is, I already knew what answer Rand would give. I just didn’t want chat to believe if I left. It would perceived as something I did and lacked. I tried very hard to smooth over my grievances with Rand. But he’s incredibly stubborn and selfish.
I also know Rand is a clout chaser and he will be much more flexible if I am open and honest with how things are run. As we speak, we’re both professionals. Rand will still stream. I will still stream. And will remain civil despite how ugly revealing the backend looks.
I missed Rand’s call ONCE. And he turns into a monster about it.
The way Rand speaks to me on stream. The way Rand speaks to everyone is not a bit. Not a meme. He’s very abrasive and rude. Senseless and mean. I often need to remind him to treat our own donators with a modicum of grace. Rand is equally as nasty to what he calls non-contributors. Which is everyone else. Every single viewer who does not donate is a net negative in Rand’s mind.
I hope we can sort this out properly. I do this because I care about him greatly. I value our friendship. I can only hope he listens and decides to slow down his drinking. I really hope Rand listens to people who really care about him and take issue with his on going behavior.
