Well this sucks. After all the hate build up for reasons better expressed in the video, TB is avoiding all comments on YT and Reddit for the foreseeable future.
Thick skin does not last. It builds and builds, people have their breaking points and TB seems to have reached his. It is easy for somebody to say "you need thick skin" when they are not the one under fire. It is totally different when you're in it. Not saying I understand on their level, but I can say that it is really disheartening. You can have 99.99% good reception, but that .01 tends to linger and stand out more. It really eats at you, they can be the dumbest, most illogical attention seeking posts you have ever seen. But it gets to you at some point.
It is something I don't think people will understand fully until they do it and it happens to them.
NOTE: Noticed Tartans thread about The Order 1886 on the front page. This thread was originally featuring its new trailer. Saw that this thread no longer had a purpose, so I changed it.

That's a shame. I never really watched TotalBiscuit, but I've seen a couple of videos of his and he seems like a really nice guy. If this is a permanent change, I wish him the best during his future endeavors.
