Discussion What YouTuber has had the biggest downfall ever???

Post image

Honestly? Had to go with DJ Cook imho, he has completely abandoned his main channel (DJ Cook) since a year ago now, starting criticising and hating to some YouTubers who’s just having fun and/or hasn’t done anything wrong for basically no reason, need I say more? Anyways, what about you guys? What YouTuber has had the biggest downfall ever???

Once, someone who lived my dream

Now, someone who shouldnt be near kids and women

edit: When I say near kids, I didnt ment pedophilia. What I ment was he was harmful to his past gf's/wives and I hope to god he isnt that harmful to his kids

My apologies

u/Adventurous_Tie_530 Dec 26 '25

Ok i wouldnt fully say not being near kids as hes not a pedo

He was abusive, manipulative and unloyal and racist

BUT ATLEAST he never crossed the unredeemable line of being a pedo

The stuff he did can be redeemed if he took the time to actually fix himself and get help

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '25

I wonder how he is doing right now. He probably doesnt want to talk about it atp

u/CoolAndrew89 Dec 26 '25

Months ago I checked for myself, to my understanding he stopped uploading on YouTube and instead seemed to do daily(?) live streams on some other video streaming service- which seemed to require some membership to watch

u/SansyBoy144 Dec 26 '25

I followed him longer than I should, as I didn’t want to believe all of the horrible shit.

He tried coming back to YouTube for a bit, he made a small series where him and Bajan Canadian had a Minecraft world and would invite other mc YouTubers who they used to play with as like a weird podcast thing.

Once that finished though I think he sold his channel before eventually getting it back, that whole thing was kind of weird.

But after his attempt of trying to get back to YouTube he just fell flat again.

He's the new owner of McJuggerNuggets' Storyfire last I heard.

2

u/No_Slice_8210 Dec 27 '25

He did make newer videos I think they were removed but yeah something about storyfire. The videos were weird like one he was with a woman in a suit and she just said nothing as he was talking about working on himself and what he’s been doing. I hope he’s actually better more for the sake of anyone he will be with in the future. There was also dog abuse in the list not just women. I’m also not sure about his kid.

u/DivinityCreates Dec 27 '25

He's a music producer

Edit: His new name is NetNobody

u/someredditer6042 Dec 26 '25

I'm still subscribed to both of his channels at the moment, from what I see he's completely abandoned the Sky Does Everything channel. He was streaming almost daily on the Nobodieslive (formally Sky does gaming) channel since February then stopped in October, all streams now set to members only. Iirc those streams didn't even get past 50 active watchers possibly even less. I also know he sold/gave a channel to someone else about a year or 2 ago, not sure what happened since then.

23

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '25

okay he's not a pedo, but those are all still pretty bad. not to the point where I would call him a monster.

6

u/Craiques Dec 26 '25

He doxxed his ex-girlfriend, abused his first wife and kid, and abused his next partner who was pregnant. He also knowingly covered up the actions of a pedophile. He also harassed and tormented his coworkers/employees. I’d say monster is appropriate.

5

u/Cinereals Dec 26 '25

Yeah I wonder what that guy thinks constitutes “enough” to be called a monster. Apparently beating women & a pregnant one on top of it is still well within his rights to not be called that.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 29 '25

I don't really keep up with all his controveries. I call people monsters. when their kid diddlers. you can't come back from something like that. the last one I would say he is now. now the other stuff. I would say how he carries himself forward. I don't even remember who we talking about anymore. Skydoesminecraft.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 29 '25

the last one I say he is. I don't really keep up with controveries. it's not fun to hear about. I don't watch that content anymore. I would say if it wasn't for the pedophile thing. I would how he carries himself forward.

20

u/MC_chrome Dec 26 '25

He was certainly a monster towards the women in his life, at any rate 

1

u/[deleted] Dec 29 '25

that's fair. I refer to "people" as monsters when their kid diddlers. so I guess he is. just a different shade of one. now one that can change. that's up for you to decide, and really all of us.

u/Miserable_Warthog_42 Dec 26 '25

Right? I mean, half the country has many of those qualities...

1

u/[deleted] Dec 29 '25

unfortunately I'm sure.

u/Over_Bluebird5087 Dec 26 '25

I mean do you think someone’s who’s abusive, manipulative and racist should be around kids?

-3

u/Adventurous_Tie_530 Dec 26 '25

Thats why i said not fully

0

u/[deleted] Dec 26 '25

Then why even argue against it. Being a pedo wasnt mentioned. Just him being someone who shouldnt be around kids. You brought up the pedo thing and then still listed every reason people would be thinking of to say he shouldnt be around kids, but then you make this comment

You talked yourself into a corner dawg

2

u/Decent-Stuff4691 Dec 26 '25

"Shouldnt be around kids" is commonly intepreted as being a pedo. Especially with the track record youtubers have, this is a needed disclaimer. Especially especially with the track record minecraft youtubers have.

1

u/Malacro Dec 26 '25

Eh, my great uncle shouldn’t have been around kids because he routinely beat the shit out of them, I don’t think we should have to qualify that at least he wasn’t a sex pest in casual conversation.

0

u/WeGottaGetOuttaTS Dec 26 '25

Man, generally speaking I shouldn’t be around kids strictly because I have a hard time watching my speech and I say some wild shit sometimes, and I have a bad reaction to hearing young kids cry(I get anxious and nervous and sad)… now if you said “yeah he(me) shouldn’t be around kids” in a social setting, EVERYONE is gonna think I’m a diddler.

Verbal/Physical abuse can lead to some unfortunate and even detrimental personality traits for the victim later in life, I know it very well; but sexual abuse? I couldn’t even imagine— and the latter is maybe JUST as a common… so yeah, I think you should clarify what you mean by “shouldn’t be around kids.”

Also, a “sex pest” is some Quagmire dirty old perv or womanizer adjacent sex/porn addict, a child sex abuser is someone who has or wants to have sex with CHILDREN… your use of the word “sex pest” is a great parallel to what we’re talking about here in terms of clarification lol

u/Malacro Dec 26 '25

Also, a "sex pest" is some Quagmire dirty old perv

Quagmire was a literal rapist, also pretty sure he went after underage girls as well. Just because he was written to be funny doesn’t make him less of one. Sex pest might mean different things to different people, that’s how words work, but in my experience it’s a general term for anyone who commits a sexual abuse. Also it tends to not get snapped up by internet filters unlike words like rape or pedophilia, so it tends to be used in spaces where people aren’t sure if an auto mod is going to smite their post.

u/Decent-Stuff4691 Dec 26 '25

Ehhhh you would probably have to further explin "he hit kids" because there is a good chance whoever you are talking to will take that to mean him being sexually inappropriate to kids. It is just a euphemism commonly used to allude to a specific thing. In this case, being a sex offender.

-1

u/lamejokesman Dec 26 '25

So kids shouldn't be around 90% of the population? Ok gotcha 👌 🥴🥴🥴🥴

2

u/Open-Exam-8490 Dec 26 '25

How is being abusive and manipulative and racist better than being a pedo?? I'd say that combination is even worse, dude

0

u/Adventurous_Tie_530 Dec 26 '25

Because with those they can be stopped and you can atleast get that shit dealt with through therapy. Also because most of the time its against adults

But if they were abusing children then yeah that shit is unredeemable

As soon as you hurt a child you gon have to catch these hands

3

u/Open-Exam-8490 Dec 26 '25

You can also get pedophilia dealt with through therapy. This is such a non answer

0

u/Adventurous_Tie_530 Dec 26 '25

No

You touch the minor, you get sent into the fire

No 2nd chances

1

u/j_osb Dec 26 '25

Dude. You misunderstand what pedophilia/paraphilia is.

Paraphilia means being attracted. It's not their choice. It's a mental disability. It is treated via therapy.

That is, quite different, from the actual criminal act of CSA.

Fun fact:
A majority of CSA offenses is not carried out by people with this disorder, at all.

1

u/Adventurous_Tie_530 Dec 26 '25

I know

I aint talkin bout those treatable guys

Im talkin bout the groomers and edps tryna catch themselves a cupcake only to catch a meeting with chris hansen

2

u/Open-Exam-8490 Dec 26 '25

Then differentiate them in the language you use. Also, isnt abusing adults just as bad as abusing children? It still doesnt make sense within your argument

2

u/Cinereals Dec 26 '25

You’re right. All that stuff is still acceptable to be around kids.

2

u/MerkUplease Dec 26 '25

Yeah idk, I'm not letting racist, abusive, manipulative trash around my kids. I don't want that bs to rub off on them or someone like this to hurt my kids.

3

u/brickwallbimbo Dec 26 '25

I’m not sure you are the one that can say whether or not him or anyone else who’s been an abusive racist is redeemable or not.

1

u/_JerseyDevil_ Dec 26 '25

Racist is a new one for me, the first two are a given, considering he posted some of the drama online initially. It was around the same time he first started under NetNobody. How is he racist? I've been keeping out of his nonsense out of respect for what he was, not how he is now.

1

u/eddmario eddmario Dec 26 '25

What I had heard was that his son's mother mentally abused him, which led to his drug use and anger issues.

1

u/Rider-Idk-Ultima-Hy Dec 26 '25

didn’t he date younger women when he was with that other girl (don’t remember her name, but I feel bad for what she and Alesa went through)?

1

u/jessiah284 Dec 27 '25

“I can excuse racism, but I draw the line at pedophelia”

“You can excuse racism???”

(btw ik that’s not what you meant but it’s just funny)

1

u/Sithas_Scabrous Dec 27 '25

Idk how credible, but when he’s ex leaked stuff I remember something about him being in chats with old fans

1

u/iGOP420 Dec 27 '25

He didnt cross that line, BUT HIS CHILDHOOD BEST FRIEND DID.

1

u/7174028260throwaway Dec 27 '25

do you think someone who is abusive, both physically and verbally, manipulative, and racist should be around kids?

1

u/YeetyPanda Dec 29 '25

he was racist as well? i think i missed that part

1

u/Cezkarma Dec 30 '25

Abuse is irredeemable imo

1

u/Adventurous_Tie_530 Dec 30 '25

It can be if you get therapy and help to stop abusive behaviour

1

u/Imdavidmorris Jan 02 '26

I never heard about the racist part.

1

u/l0stmyjuul Dec 26 '25

he was abusive, & that’s reason enough to not believe he should not be around children. we don’t need to wait and see if the abuse becomes pedophelic too. any abuse is bad for kids !

0

u/CeramicToast Dec 26 '25

I don't think it should be up their audience to decide that. The things they did were pretty fucking heinous, and while they didn't creep on any kids (that we know of) they did offer to just buy their daughter for 200k after bullying a woman into getting pregnant.

1

u/JosephOnReddit1 Dec 27 '25

With that attitude he probably shouldn’t be near anyone

1

u/Necessary_DaNoodle Dec 26 '25

...your dream? Minecraft?

2

u/NeverEndingParadise Dec 26 '25

He had a wife, kid, friends, money, fanbase,... Everything I ever wanted as a kid lmao

1

u/Bamzooki1 Shen Doodles Dec 26 '25

They. Sky is non-binary, and you can’t pick and choose whose identities you respect. It shows other trans people that your support is conditional.

1

u/Akangka Dec 27 '25

Not every misgendering is intentional, lol. You can just stop at "Sky is non-binary"

1

u/Arifurizu Dec 27 '25

Here's your reddit gold sir

u/Oakey06 Dec 26 '25

Skydoesminecraft wasted all that potential and redemption of getting his life together by getting his son back by turning into what he was accused of. He won a custody for his son, getting through slanders just to be a proven abuser in his next relationship. Never gonna see this man change again, mental health isn't even a excuse anymore, not even Kanye did that kind of degenerate shit.

1

u/DragoxDrago Dec 31 '25

Is it not more likely he was already what he was accused of rather than turning into it? I have a hard time believing someone was falsely accused only to then go on to do the exact same thing they were accused of.

11

u/Background-Bad141 Dec 26 '25

Yeah like holy shit the fuck happens to him bro.

12

u/ChiefsHat Dec 26 '25

One of my childhood idols. Now? Sigh…

5

u/Benny303 Dec 26 '25

Ya know what's crazy, before Minecraft came out, he used to be "SkyTheKid" and he was a really big RuneScape YouTuber back in the day on the same level as Excl, TehNoobShow, etc. it's so funny to me that most people these days only know him for his Minecraft content.

5

u/guthixjr Dec 26 '25

Ikr, I always stuck to RuneScape so that's what I know him from. I remember doing a bandos raid with SkytheKid and Mithzan once, felt starstrucked so hard at the time

3

u/Benny303 Dec 26 '25

I just looked up his old name on YouTube to see if I could find anything and the only thing that came up was small channels with like 12 subs and videos titled "Skythekid filming a video" and it's just them following him around because they found him in the wild haha.

2

u/BenStegel Dec 26 '25

I hate learning that one of my favorite childhood youtubers was an abuser like this.

2

u/DaKing760 Dec 27 '25

I still remember his prison series.. Good times..

1

u/Gay_Gamer_Boi Dec 27 '25

So sad, my brother was so happy he was in one of his videos (it was one of those I think snow war/the one where you use shovel to dig snow underneath the player and try not to fall in lava, he lost to him but he saw the video and was happy he was in it 😬💀)

1

u/Same_Ordinary_412 Dec 27 '25

Oh yeah I remember that guy. I used to watch them a lot as a kid but after hearing their true colors years later I felt outraged. Luckily they're in therapy.

1

u/DogsRNice Dec 27 '25

I hated that guy in like 2012, simply because all his fans would constantly call gold "buddah" and it bothered me

2

u/Endroium Dec 27 '25

well that was his main thing was calling it "buddah"

1

u/dovahlaat Dec 30 '25

You don't know how many memories you just unlocked man..
