not to be a lil sensitive but not only do i just think its bad taste to constantly joke abt killing off a 3yr old fictional or not but it also just like. doesnt reflect well on the ccs involved to be doing this like. just so they can upset fans that arent even theirs like. theyre just doing this to make people Uncomfortable and Upset and thats fucked up when we were told that michael wouldnt have this stuff happen to him. theres a difference between sam keeping michael hostage when sams habit of kidnapping michael was already established and something beeduo was aware of and.
sapnap n george constantly getting people into actively threatening him and constantly baiting viewers into believing they killed him off like. for many its funny sure but for a lot of other people its just genuinely upsetting and disappointing esp bc theres a possibility that it messed with other peoples (such as tubbo and ranboo, MICHAELS LITERAL PARENTS) story arcs lmao. rp etiquette is down the gutter w this -🎭🎪
Yeah like I'm not watching this particular stream so I can't testify as to like how far this particular joke went, how quick they dropped it, how clear it was that it's a joke, etc BUT
I feel like it's different for the CCs because they always know their own intent. So when they say they're going to kill him, THEY know it's a joke, and they assume everyone else knows it's a joke. And by now, most of us do know it's a joke! But back when this all first started that really wasn't as clear, y'know?
I feel like esp with upcoming lore they know not to Really put the actual mob in any Real danger but like. Even if we take int account that they're currently acting Out Of Character (which means that this isn't c!Sapnap threatening a child it's Sapnap The CC threatening a Minecraft Mob who belongs to someone else) it's still weird because. Again there are countless pets builds etc on the server that are important but would upset people way less and may EVEN lead to "lore" or something.
Like there are other people on the server who are in way more frequently, and if the point of the joke was to grief or pretend to grief people, you'd think they'd choose a target that 1. Isn't super plot relevant and 2. Is owned by someone who logs on more frequently, y'know?
So like I fully understand that the joke is not "Kill Michael_B", the joke is "SAY we are going to kill him/pretend to kill him while really he is safe." I understand that that is the intent behind the jokes and that they wouldn't actually ruin someone's storyline on purpose.
But the fact that they're STILL singling out this one mob as the one they're going to joke about killing really does make it seem like griefing or killing a pet isn't the punchline at all and the punchline they're actually shooting for is seeing fans get upset. And I know they probably mean it in a lighthearted way, just to see people spam D: or NOOO in chat and such, but it's just Weird that this is a joke they continuously return to, because how many times can you pretend to kill the same mob and watch people for "no don't" before it's not entertaining anymore?
Like I'm sure they don't mean badly and maybe it's some like inside joke between them that we're not in on but I really can't figure out what's funny enough about "I could kill this mob which would cause a poltline to be ruined but I won't but will pretend to do it" for them to do it over and over again (esp because these ccs are so effortlessly funny)
(but seriously nobody send any ccs hate over this they haven't done anything actually wrong 👍)
