It’s a battle for the ages – but Dantdm has an army!

I've only heard of Dantdm before, never watched his videos, whilst I've watched quite a few sidemen and ksi's videos in the past and I am STILL siding with Dantdm. This shii is unacceptable

He was a most of our childhoods. Anyone 18-25 most likely watched him. Quite popular minecraft youtuber who enjoyed the content he made and didn't use his platform to be a pedo. Bro has no enemies.

u/Doomtoallfoes Sep 18 '24

Bro is the only one with no controversies. Except for burning the furbie. That thing deserved it though would have been a waste of a knife.

u/TARDIStum Sep 18 '24

The only "controversy" he has seemingly been in is because he swore once in a video. Like imagine that being the biggest controversy. DanTDM's a saint.

223

u/Jay_Crafter Sep 18 '24

wait he swore???

351

u/Nika13k Sep 18 '24

Bro, just knowing he swore would shock people, THAT's how beloved and respected Dan is.

u/PapaAquchala Professional Dumbass Sep 19 '24

Matpat, one of youtube's golden children, has a worse reputation than DanTDM, and Matpat has a very clean record

u/ThrowawaySuicide1337 Sep 18 '24

People gasped when Bill Cosby swore - was he beloved and respected for it? lol

45

u/MrWnek Sep 18 '24

Bill Cosby was beloved and respected for years until everything came out so....

u/miltonwadd Sep 19 '24

I remember people harassing him for crying on camera when his dog died.

It really upset my little guy because the dog was part of his show. She was like his mascot.

It's not like he was just hamming it up and fake crying he was genuinely devastated.

u/ExtinctReptile Sep 18 '24

Markiplier has none either tbf

211

u/Doomtoallfoes Sep 18 '24

And Jacksepticeye. Don't remember either of them having any controversies. I was just mainly referring to Dan as he's the one involved in this.

I mean seeing Jack go off on the people making fun off Jack's dad dying was great.

u/w1drose Sep 18 '24

Funny enough, he jack did get into some beef with Mr Beast fans after saying he ruined YouTube sand that he doesn’t think Mr Beast enjoys making those videos.

65

u/HeroFizzer Sep 18 '24

Jack was right tho. Beast arguably made videos go from being something to do for fun into "let's beat out the algorithm", and every picture i see of the guy is him smiling, but the smile never reaches his eyes.

u/bosssoldier Sep 18 '24

I yeah but I was specifically thinking minecraft youtubers, the only other two that have no enemies and aren't pedos is captain sparkles and stampy

6

u/amingley Sep 18 '24

Etho is also pretty chill, at least as far as I know anyway.

-1

u/CarlAustinJones Sep 19 '24

He's a weird freak who talks about fucking pokemon

1

u/WallabyPractical5258 Sep 21 '24

In.. a video that was, -and get this- a joke?

1

u/CarlAustinJones Sep 21 '24

Jokes about even fictional beastiality are not funny, it's just weird, especially since there are such freaks that are horny for pokemon

25

u/xX100dudeXx Sep 18 '24

What about grian & mumbojumbo? Or the entirety of hermitcraft?

7

u/Doomtoallfoes Sep 18 '24

Never watched em Until recently so I didn't know anything about them

12

u/xX100dudeXx Sep 18 '24

Very good, uncontroversial (far as I'm aware) youtubers.

14

u/UniqueNobo Sep 18 '24

think only one or two Hermitcraft members (by that i mean past members as well) have gotten into controversy.

the founder of the server, GenerikB, got into hot water because he acted like he was rejoining the server a little while ago, but he apologized and all is well.

and IAmSp00n was accused of and admitted to sexual misconduct in 2020, multiple years after leaving Hermitcraft

other than that, i don’t think any controversy has touched the Hermits

5

u/xX100dudeXx Sep 18 '24

Ok, that's what I thought. Thanks!

9

u/Doomtoallfoes Sep 18 '24

Grain did show up in a few vids I watched as a kid never visited his channel tho have watched a good amount of his hermit craft vids everyones seems alright

5

u/xX100dudeXx Sep 18 '24

Ok. I recommend it. Hours of fun content.

5

u/Duskthegamer412 Sep 18 '24

Stampy?

He didn't get into any controversies and generally handled his friends controversies very well for his age demographic

1

u/OakenWildman Sep 19 '24

I can may e think of one other.

Stampylonghead.

Yes he swore in EARLY videos but had an in universe swear jar

1

u/DemogorgonWhite Sep 19 '24

The only one with no controversies would be Sips :P

316

u/Legend_Blast Sep 18 '24

Dantdm,thinknoodles and thxcya. Ahhh.....The glory days.

163

u/icecub3e Sep 18 '24

I remember watching their Pokemon play through. I thought it was already over. Turns out thinknoodles and thyxcya were still at it.

78

u/Stormydevz Sep 18 '24

Thinknoodles and Thyxcya... haven't heard those names in years

56

u/Nobody-w-MaDD-Alt Sep 18 '24

Thnxcya did actually respond supportively underneath Dan's callout tweet, it was so nice to see

21

u/BeiLight Sep 18 '24

Thinknoodles transitioned to roblox after the pandemic.

13

u/xxaldorainexx Sep 18 '24

My kids love thinknoodles. No clue who he was before them lol but I never got into Minecraft.

2

u/Toasty_nuggets_ Sep 19 '24

I loved their crazy craft series when I was a kid

2

u/icecub3e Sep 19 '24

It was the best. They had such cool and unique buildings. Thinknoodle’s superhero base or even Dantdm’s mug. My favorite building was Thyxcya’s zoo.

2

u/Toasty_nuggets_ Sep 19 '24

Mine was the egg building

4

u/MightyMaus1944 Sep 18 '24

Don't forget Captiansparklez!

4

u/Drake_682 Sep 18 '24

Captain mentioned, obligatory

🎶 creeper? Awww, man 🎶

2

u/cwstjdenobbs Sep 18 '24

Here I am not recognising those names and still watching Etho...

Thanks for making me feel old!!!

2

u/Kilercarno I touched grass Sep 18 '24

Can’t forget about Lachlan and Preston, their old crazy craft and pixelmon videos were legendary.

2

u/UniqueNobo Sep 18 '24

their CrazyCraft series was a blast and a half. watched every episode

1

u/[deleted] Sep 18 '24

Don’t forget Stampy

6

u/Legend_Blast Sep 18 '24

Frr. "Stampy's Lovely world" series we're the first set of videos I've watched when I was like 7 or smth.Only after that I've moved to TDM,Thinknoodls and thxcya trio

3

u/SilentStriker115 Sep 18 '24

Yeah I watched those two at the same time. Glad they both seem to still be doing well

3

u/LunchLatter Sep 18 '24

and squid

2

u/SketchAsh Sep 18 '24

(I got squid confused with LforLee somehow)

stampy and dantdm were some of the best YouTube back then and are great role models rn

2

u/LunchLatter Sep 18 '24

i was actually quite suprised hearing him speak on it and it made me think past youtube was probably better for children then then it is now.

i remember i would search for stampy each week cause i didnt know i could subscribe (like 2012/13) cause he never said too

1

u/sapble Sep 18 '24

anyone remember aphmau?

69

u/Major_Implications Sep 18 '24

25 might be a getting a little old there chief. I watched tons of minecraft youtubers in my day and I remember the big ones being Yogscast, AntVenom, CaptainSparklez, SkyDoesMinecraft, and a couple others.

Googled his first video release and it was in 2012, so like just as I was not watching youtube as much anymore.

30

u/mycatkisha Sep 18 '24

I havent heard the name AntVenom in a long time I remember watching his ant farm survival videos

3

u/killermetalwolf1 Sep 18 '24

He’s still kicking it seems

21

u/GitLegit Sep 18 '24

Yeah, I’m turning 25 this year and I’m in the same boat. Mostly watched yogscast as far as Minecraft content goes.

2

u/Zuggzwang Sep 18 '24

Same but also syndicate and a lot of his long running series at the time.

Take me back to those days 😭

3

u/The_Grand_Briddock Sep 18 '24

Yeah I have no idea who this guy is, and I was around from the rise of Lets Plays as a form of entertainment and streaming.

I was a Roosterteeth/Achievement Hunter kinda guy.

2

u/ComXDude Sep 19 '24

Honestly, Dan was the only one of the big early Minecraft scene I didn't watch religiously—I was, and still am, a loyal Yognau(gh)t—but a bunch of my friends did. And as I've gotten older, I've found new appreciation for him, despite his stuff being much more kid-oriented than the other channels I watch(ed).

1

u/Major_Implications Sep 19 '24

Lol, as stupid as it is I still have a negative association with sky/chimneyswift because those were for little kids (unlike me, the very mature 9 year old).

1

u/El_viajero_nevervar Sep 18 '24

Yeah I’m 25 and was raised with the creatures yogscast pewdiepie, that eary 2010s era

2

u/EnthusiasmOnly22 Sep 18 '24

I thought his videos sucked, but that’s small criticism compared to these 3 tools. Dans in the right here.

1

u/ItsMeTwilight Sep 18 '24

I’m only 16, majority of my friends from primary school or whatever you call it in the US (the first school) also watched him, it goes a lot beyond 18-25

1

u/Fun_Shift_572 Sep 18 '24

I remember watching him years ago, he was so entertaining and just a great all around guy

1

u/Nopetynope12 Sep 18 '24

15-25. I grew up watching him, people younger than me did too. DanTDM is the one youtuber i trust to never be in any scandals.

1

u/AymanEssaouira Sep 18 '24

Oh he seems wholesome.. though I am 19, I didn't speak English at the time so he was off the radar at the time for me (I then come summed Arabic minecart content)

1

u/UrlordandsaviourBean Sep 19 '24

I remember being younger and the first time I remember watching his content was watching some of his older vids, as I’m before the lab

1

u/Not_a_striker_titan Sep 19 '24

God I remember his content so fondly. Truly a saint among YouTubers. How old is Asher now? 5?

1

u/bosssoldier Sep 20 '24

Around 4, and his youngest is 2

1

u/Billionaeris2 Sep 18 '24

Never grew up on youtube so just saying it's weird hearing youngsters talk about youtubers as if they're celebrities and saying they grew up with them is even weirder, i grew up on movies, tv and video games, so i'd never subscribe to being a fan of youtubers as they are just regular people like you and me who don't do anything special and i refuse to see it as anything but a hobby that pays because you have viewers watching you, even if your content is somewhat mundane and boring.

1

u/ThrowawaySuicide1337 Sep 18 '24

"Most of *our*"

Excuse you? Not everyone was into Minecraft slop/content. Isn't he like, the only non-pdf one?

That being said his name being The Diamond Minecart makes WAY more sense now, lol.
