exactly, I am not spewing hate, I'm just stating that I think he could produce videos without destroying shit - I'm in the UK in small firm, 3-4 people already stating they prefer Jay2cents cause he respects the gear hes provided by sponsor - flame me, but that's RL comments

He's drilled through motherboards though...

when accusing someone of "shit" might wanna check 1st - especially when the whole channel is tech oriented

if this was from Martha Stewart, I would've understood

Linus respects hardware and does not like when it is damaged. However, you are not taking a key factor into account. And that is the MASS amount of hardware Linus handles and receives on a daily basis. So the probability of something getting dropped/damaged is increased exponentially compared to other tech Youtuber's/reviewers.

Would you be more happy if he had only low end hardware?  The man has built an incredibly successful YouTube empire!  He's an entertainer and a business man.  And a damn good one.  The disrespect you talk about is all in your head.

I would be happy if he respected it

1) Ultimately, what LMG is operating is a film/television set, and despite best efforts, accidents and damages will occur on a film/television set.  This is the reality of producing entertainment content.

 

2) He didn't demand.  He rather apologetically BEGGED for a replacement, even admitting that he'd understand if Asus never sent them a free demo unit again.  It was pretty much the total opposite of a 'demand'.

My point is he's gone away from what he was, I for one am unsubbing - I will use these forums as I think the community is great, for tech vids I will remain with Jay2cents

jay2cents is a channel i don't respect because of the attitude, i watch a video for content not to be reminded of his attitude

  if you are talking about good calm channels i would say ltt, paul hardware, nexus( i love truthful in-depth reviews he goes the extra mile), df foundery.

That wasn't even his attitude in the slightest. You are making things up in your head buddy.

But Jay didn't go "oh shit guys, I'm  dick and drilled though the mobo you provided me, give me another" hence my point!

Yes because that is totally demanding a new one with no respect.

No, but Linus was in the other room and no one was near the test bench when it happened to loose footing and fall off the table. He apologized sincerely to ASUS and said he would understand if they won't send him any more products. However, he respectfully requested another. You are full of it tonight aren't you?

Why do people give a shit, it was an accident. Live and learn, yes it was kind of ASUS to send a replacement to Linus. 

It wasn't the way it happened it was the "hey guys I dropped this shit, give me another kk"

 

If that's us? Fuck you, buy another

Yep, now I know you are trolling. Just stop giving this guy attention. That is exactly what he is here to attain. Why else would he post such a controversial topic on a forum he knew it would rile up?

Gamers Nexus and PC Persepctive are the sources for that, and Paul's/Jay's channel to a lesser extent.

In no way was that an English sentence with any actual meaning, you lose 50 points and may not pass go.

Yeah but that is irrelevant, as Linus needs that board to do product reviews of Ryzen in which case Asus has financial gain from... Both are businesses looking out for their interest. You being the targeted consumer.

of course it was - as was his remorse when he tweeted it demanding a new one and of course - Asus shit them selves and shipped one over night

Why would they shit themselves? Because Linus would call them out on twitter because they won't send him another free product? Think about that for a second. 

 

The nail thread had more sense than this.
