    I do wish SE would get his YouTube account shut down. His guides are awful and they breed bad players.
    Amen brother. His "guides" are drivel. I wouldn't go as far as shutting down his Youtube channel. he should still to commentary
    because his "guides" are utter trash and do breed Kool-aid drinkers.

    Breed bad players, seriously? There are plenty of good and bad players in this game, it has nothing to do with Mrhappy's videos. I've watched Mrhappy's videos and I'm not a "bad player".

    Some people like to have a peek into something before diving in, especially with a toxic community that expects no one to be new to anything that isn't brand new at the time.

    You should always value your own experiences over someone else's guidance when it comes to this, but going so far as to say he breeds bad players and his account should be shut down is ridiculous. Especially when he produces great content outside of guides, as well as supporting charities and overall just being a nice guy to talk to.

    Pointing the blame at his videos, which I still fail to see how they're warranted as "bad", is essentially a reaction of said "Kool-aid drinkers". Some of them are outdated, a few might actually be categorized as "bad" or misinformed, but that doesn't exactly say that as a whole they're "utter trash". So I'm guessing his videos really did breed that sort of player you describe negatively, as I seem to be referring to one. >.> Funny how that works.

    Always always ALWAYS point the blame for bad things at the person who does them (in this case, the player that fails to adapt to play better). Don't find a scapegoat for the people that fail to adapt or interpret information correctly. As in doing so, you're showing you lack the ability to perceive personal conduct, essentially that you're no better than the typical mouth-breather. That, to the rest of us, is a situation that is just begging to be mocked. It's like the argument that video games breed murderers, where it just ignores so much logic to point blame at something that doesn't deserve it.
