Comments

Hey can't I post my video here . I'm new

@Bushmeat101

Can't wait

Jeremiah Gordon

Angel is not a twitch exclusive as it posts to Patreon every week.

The Normies

Having Rana in this video when she’s not in the X-Men 97 reaction is super misleading…

AvatarJordy

I’m too invested in this plot 💀 I actually wanna know the other stuff he says

Slump_Kami

I'm not a Normie, but my understanding is that you only have to go through another paywall on Twitch if you don't want to wait for the XMen show to arrive on Patreon in October. I don't see how that's predatory, and it's the same as the current model of announcing show schedules with different access timing based on subscription. Also, preeeeeeetty sure there'd be a huge backlash if the Normies took your suggestion to announce a "surprise show" on Twitch, where subscribers would have to pay just to find out what it is and if they even want to watch it. That sounds predatory to me. Also, like, c'mon, this is a gravy service. It's not a basic necessity like clean water or food.

Esther Boogie

Yay

Herberderber

So for all us who are paying 10 bucks a month to watch the uncuts are being told they also to pay another pay wall to watch another sbow....thats pretty predatory and ridiculous , especially to your patreon supporters who have already been supporting you. I think a better way to announce this would be to just have a post saying xmen is coming to patreon at such and such date. The twich exclusive could have been people getting to react to a secret show early but you have to subscribe to find out. That way people feel like theyre getting something instead of losing something

Rey

😮🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😆😂

Cliff Douglas

Normies got us heated. We're crashing out threatening lawsuits (only in America). Reactions are too damn high like rent. I want Trump and Harris to talk about the high cost of reactions in their debate. Forget cost of food, living expenses and gas.🤣

Cliff Douglas

If you don't mind me asking why is it banned? Is Twitch also accused of being used for spying like TikTok?

Cliff Douglas

That's reasonable. So this is an exclusive for the Twitch subs first. I'm okay with that. If they're paying too they should get a perk.

Cliff Douglas

That's funny. Okay I get it now. Normies are setting up pay add on DLCs like Sony.😂😥

Cliff Douglas

Oh wow really. Damn I have to get it back. I remember when it started it was mostly gamers (bad gamers).

Cliff Douglas

@Legion agreed. A general announcement for everyone on patreon at least a couple of days to a week in advance is something needed for people who have the ability to plan around this event while juggling real life.

Chaos T

Not everyone uses the discord daily to form relationships they aren’t capable of in real life Rickie. Your point is just as useless as the podcast one.

GrayStark

You use patreon as your own personal diary and say all kinds of weird uncomfortable stuff. Don’t make me go pull all the weird shit you say on YaboiRoshis patreon. But hey, if you wanna defend something. Defend being parasocial. Genuinely tell me a reason why that would be good for anyone involved. If you read the definition(s) of parasocial and don’t find it bad or weird then by God you might be too far gone lol.

GrayStark

The Normies are now EA Fifa 2024

Civ

Same reason I stopped watching their Buffy reactions, because Angel is a twitch exclusive

dannydarko27

Probably been a twitch sub

dannydarko27

Oh I see now the series is a perk for twitch so you have to pay to watch. Isn't that what Patreon is for lol. That's some hidden fees type of business practice

dannydarko27

I haven't been on in a while but you only get the sub benefits if you pay extra. Twitch is free you just get bombarded with ads if you're not subbed

dannydarko27

Nah twitch has really changed a lot I mean a lot

The Answer

We also discussed it in the chat which all patreons have access to. Any excuse is a good one when you don't want to change/admit personal responsibility....

rickie woodson

Says the dude who looks like a pot head lol. Ill stay "creepy" aka REAL bka MYSELF for doing nothing but telling the truth lol. Sigh normies. Too basic to be original and unique 💅. Yeah im soooooo creepy keeping to myself, reading books, watching tv and volunteering. Im the next booty bandit. Watch out boys lol. I stated a fact and if you actually did research before using words you clearly dont understand i wouldnt have to defend my friend from an uneducated miserable loser. You called him out for no reason. Get a better job so you can buy you some happy. 바보

rickie woodson

I like that the Rundown is Patreon exclusive though. My only issue that shows are not given equal time and more talk is actually given to shows that are not popular on here based on polls. Which is weird.

Cliff Douglas

How did you watch them?

Cliff Douglas

Wait you have to pay extra for this Twitch. I thought that platform was gaming?

Cliff Douglas

Damn what a way to put it😂 ⭐️

GrayStark

Thissssss

IzanagiAce

I was able to watch the first 2 episodes after they stream, and I wasn't subbed. Is only 4.49 and is 30% off. I don't think is a big deal to wait until October 1st to see it on Patreon, but that's just my opinion.

Xonok

You can exclusively go fuck yourselves. Announcing on a site with a paywall that the princess is on another site with a paywall. What a joke.

Mike Drop

Yeah, so against this being a Twitch exclusive before Patreon I'm going to bow out. Best of luck to y'all.

Civ

I can't watch twitch vods in my country. so I guess I have to wait for 3months to watch finale reactions.

addnid07

Also, unless I missed a schedule announcement, announcing the stream the day of doesn't help either. Since these are happening in the middle of the day in the middle of the week, it's gotta be something people can plan for/around.

Legion

I don't mind what they're doing because it's going to be on Patreon next month though it's understandable why some are angry. However, the Q & A and Sunday Rundown may not be the most ideal places to have the information "X-Men 97" is going to be a twitch exclusive. There's over 20,000 members to The Normies Patreon and probably the majority of those people don't watch Sunday Rundown and the Q & A. The Normies are probably trying to drive traffic to those parts of Patreon but many people are just too busy to watch an hour-long podcast on top of the reactions being watched on a weekly basis. A post on Patreon, like the one above, a couple of weeks in advanced could have alleviated some of the anger we're seeing in this comment section.

Chaos T

I get the anger but threatening to sue is a new one 😂. Some people have way too much time on their hands.

Chaos T

Just keep attacking Rickie's weird creepy ass comments enough and they'll block you. It's great not having to see "OMG they're so hot" on a regular basis in the Patreon comment section. They're one of the most confidently wrong people I've ever come across on this platform.

Chaos T

I get waiting to keep the edited reactions until later but can you not just post the twitch vods here on Patreon for those of us that can't catch the stream live? Feels wrong having to wait a month for it when I'm paying for the Patreon.

DanDy

For those of us who watched the stream, can we put comments for SDR about '97 or should we wait until they start getting uploaded to Patreon first?

Jay

It would be great if us paying patrons could enjoy the reaction too. Please consider doing the right thing.

Co

Rickie I don’t wanna hear it from you. You’ve been posting weird creepy ass comments on every patreon I’ve seen for 4 years. Of course you would think parasocial isn’t bad

GrayStark

I understand that you guys want to boost your twitch subs, but it would be nice for us Patrons to at least drop an uncut after it airs. Is there a reason to have the Patron's wait for the uncuts? I get not wanting to immediately have to edit them down, but us Patrons are already paying. Seems like just putting out the uncuts for us would make 99% of the people complaining right now happy. But anyways, looking forward to this in October I guess! I loved this season of X-Men 97, looking forward to more!

Paul Stanley

terrible time to watch a stream, hopefully the VODS will be available later at some point

dugnutt

parasocial isnt an insult or inherently bad. get a dictionary..........

rickie woodson

LETS GOOOO!!! FINALLY WE'RE GETTING XMEN!!!

Watchdog

You are the biggest Karen that ever karened in all of suburbia. How are you THIS entitled?! Also the fact that you're speaking of suing anyone over TEN DOLLARS is incredibly pathetic.

Smash Bran'Discootch

Agreed. Other streamers do that. It’s a big misstep to say it’s exclusive to Twitch subscribers on an entirely different paid platform lol. And its at a time when people can be at work or school.

Legion

Please keep us all apprised re: the years long court battle over slightly earlier access to X-Men 97.

Firefx

Cope dumbass 😂

Zee

X men 97 isn’t on patron tho so they don’t owe us that

KingRath

Thank you cause they acting like I'm crazy for saying they should have created a post like this a while ago.

Imari

Oh they mentioned it briefly in a random hour long podcast? How dare I be uninformed

GrayStark

X-Men 97

David Campbell

Hi David - Will you help me understand which show we are not 3-4 weeks ahead on Patreon under Premium Access? This is my math but I could be counting things wrong BLEACH: 23 wks ahead on premium OFFICE: 13 wks ahead on premium BEAR: 9 wks ahead on premium HARLEY QUINN: 5 wks ahead on premium FMAB: 5 wks ahead on premium COBRA KAI: 5 wks ahead on premium FREIREN: 4 wks ahead on premium BUFFY: 4 wks ahead on premium SAMURAI CHAMPLOO / BLUE EYE SAMURAI: 4 wks ahead on premium SUNNY: 4 wks ahead on premium SW (StarWars) SHOWS: 4 wks ahead on premium YOUNG JUSTICE: 4 wks ahead on premium

The Normies

I think this is a nice thing to do for your Twitch subscribers. I’m not on Twitch and can’t watch during the work day, but I still support you doing stuff like this. I’m fine waiting a month to see it on Patreon.

Les

HIM and Zee below are the most parasocial people I’ve seen on this patreon, get help😂

GrayStark

Yes. We plan to have ALL episodes on Patreon on Oct 1st, if everything goes according to the plac

The Normies

Ok so it’s still coming to patreon just later? I’m ok with that

SirTirus

@Imari, no they did it was on sunday rundown for the last few weeks, they said multiple times, I hate it too don't get me wrong there is no reason to not just put the uncuts on paetron except to try and get us to subscribe to twitch, which I'm not doing complete waste for me I can't watch their live streams 99% of the time. But they have said many times this is how they are doing it, I didn't post about it before because I hoped they would at the least dump the uncuts on paetron.

Macs

Wrong again y'all love making excuses for what. They literally gave us no warning and not only that but they only posted this two hours ago so if you didn't see this notification you would have to wait a month to watch the first ep since they decided to make this public knowledge four hours before doing the very first ever stream. Why would I be happy to pay more money when I subbed to patron for the literal extra content they are withholding from me. Y'alls logic sucks bad.

Imari

Why, because I don't want to get taken advantage of when someone takes my money under false pretense. You can feel free to bend over and take it while saying thank you and criticizing any who dare complain, but I choose to keep my dignity.

David Campbell

Idk, I used it when AMC denied a refund on a movie ticket and when a pest control company signed me up for service without my permission. We essentially get a lawyer on retainer for even the most trivial things.

David Campbell

Yes I guess I liked my other comments multiple times from multiple accounts too right? 😂. You’re mad because people aren’t fully agreeing with your childish whining. Cool, unsub week your term is up brokey lol. No ones D riding, you just look lame 😂

Zee

But never an actual full post till now cause if you search X-men 97 in the search bar nothing pops up in any of the Sunday rundowns. Just this single post try again. Sorry to burst your bubble but they don’t give us the best heads up on things.

Imari

look to be honest knowing they could just dump the uncut on paetron same time makes this look bad, if there is some reason it would take more then 5 mins to do so I'd understand but in this case its a bit shitty. I can understand why people are upset. I know they already said they are doing it this way but is their any reason other then trying to get us to sign up to a twitch stream that plays at a time many aren't able to watch?

Macs

😂😂😂 sure buddy

Zee

Sorry to hurt your feelings but someone actually liked my comment the second I posted it cause idk I make good comments. And I already asked them to put discussions on Patreon uncuts and they said they are keeping them exclusively on YouTube. What do you think that means??? Oh that they want views on their YouTube videos right ok. Like I’m not complaining for no reason I was subbed for a month or two this was simply just the last straw for me. Idk why you are D riding them so hard but it’s ok to not be comfortable sitting in shit when you can sit on a chair. 💀

Imari

It's fine to hold back or delay the content from YouTube, but to hold it back from the Patreons who sub under the promise of getting early access is underhanded.

David Campbell

If you pay for early access to content, you should never need to wait.

David Campbell

Raise your hand if you signed up for Premium access under the promise of getting content, and I quote, "a minimum of 3-4 weeks ahead" or Early access to "gain one week early access" only to be one month behind. If I really wanted to, I could probably use my work's lawyer benefits to sue their ass.

David Campbell

Factually wrong ^, they've mentioned on the Q&As, Sunday Rundowns for WEEKs

Zee

Then ask them to put it on or suggest they put it in a proper reaction format for Patreon. Use your money to ask for something RELEVANT and meaningful lmao. Using your money yet your not even self aware they've been saying they would go this route lol very big brain. LOL at me talking about me liking my own comments yet when I reply to you there's already a instant like. Seems like a projection. If you not gonna sub then shut up and wait or don't watch, It's very simple.

Zee

This is literally the first time they ever posted something about what they are doing pertaining to X-men 97

Imari

yeahhhh, I'm not doing that, guess I'll be with the Youtube crowd, but who all gonna be on the couch though?

Doc Anime!

The point is they don’t put discussion on Patreon specifically because they want views on their YouTube videos. And I personally don’t care if you think I’m whining I can literally comment whatever I want as long as I’m subbed here. Just cause I’m capable of voicing issues with things that I give MY money to doesn’t make me any less valid in my annoyance. Anyways idc if you want to sub or not I explained why I am not going to already. And I noticed you liking your own comments which is definitely strange 💀.

Imari

^^^^

Zee

You can speak your mind and it can still come off whiny lmao. You can wait a month. They do discussions on their twitch so that point is weird. I’ve complained about their bad communication before but acting like this situation is a crime is just funny to me. You’re not being forced to do anything here. You have the option to go on twitch or simply wait. It’s not that deep

Zee

I already unsubbed lol and my anger definitely isn’t misplaced everything I said was within reason. They highkey just want money on all platforms and I get that but it definitely predatory the way they withhold stuff from people already giving them money 🙃.

Imari

My man you need to calm down, take a breath and just watch it on October 1st. Your outrage is completely misplaced and actually a little funny

Rando calrissian

Kinda predatory tbh

Denickart

That’s not really even the point lol it being twitch only at all is wild. It being locked behind a second paywall while people are already paying for their Patreon is in fact crazy af. People have been asking for the show since the min it came out. And now they are asked people who already are getting less content by not having discussions in the Patreon uncuts. But they are also forcing people that miss an ep on twitch to have to wait a month to see what they missed. Listen idc how much you love their content but anyone with eyes can see how this is high key giving scam 💀. I already unsubbed I’m waiting for my subscription to die out so while I’m here I’m gonna speak my piece about why I don’t like the way they do Patreon.

Imari

Bait and switch? Lol they told you for 2 weeks what they will do. You don’t wanna do twitch? Wait till October. The show isn’t a twitch only lol.

Zee

Y'all act like people can't have issues with the way they bait and switch us just cause your ok with it doesn't mean everyone got to be.

Imari

You know they gotta complain about something lol

Zee

Calm the fuck down people its gonna be on patron the first of October yall just have to wait a month

Rando calrissian

I agree with all of this lol they do the same thing with the uncuts where they remove the discussion from it so we can go to YouTube so we can give them views and/or likes or comments on the videos. Its kinda annoying when we already are paying for a service and they want us to give them more money or wait a month for something long awaited for.

Imari

Ngl, having it behind two paywalls at first is pretty shitty

SpeedyCat19

X-men is coming to Patreon next month

KingRath

I'm gonna be straight, I'm on the edge of unsubscibing from this patreon because I'm only here for always sunny and the office at this point. X-Men 97 is definitely a show that would keep me around, but I already watch you guys here and on YouTube, I'm not signing up for another website or subscription.

Gwyn

I’m not subscribing to twitch. I think it’s really underhanded to dangle this in your fan’s face. I can tell you guys did this to try and get more twitch subscribers. I can wait a month. But if it’s just you two, I’ll pass all together.

Adrian Howell

Yeah I watched it, I’m talking about getting blindsided by a paywall the day of and having it advertised on a service we ALREADY pay you for. Y’all aren’t as sneaky as you think cmon😂

GrayStark

Well that’s a really shitty way to do this show

Kollie123

Finally 🥹

Dominic

Thursdays 🔥

Zee

Damn. Don’t have twitch nor would I even be able to watch at 2:30 pm😂. One of the best superhero shows tbh though

Sage

This is high key why I unsubed from Patreon this month💀

Imari

It will be on Patreon Oct. 1st, as said in the video!

The Normies

The audacity to post this on patreon. Gotta respect it honestly😂
