lowtax and YouTube.

Hobbes

Does anyone have a link to wtf is going on with lowtax and YouTube? Appears hes pissed off a lot of people while his videos are hilarious but obvious trolls to wind them up more.

this thread makes no sense without links.

Lowtax runs somethingawful.com

Say what now?

Karoma: I had a google and a search on Youtube, its not really giving me the answers though. From what I've seen, "lowtax" was involved in a boxing match with some producer/director/writer...and thats all I've found.

that was a strange video

Indeed.
Not much of an ordeal over it yet anyway, nothing near the scale of the lonelgirl15 "scandal" that shook youtube over the summer.

Lowtax wrote an article slagging the crap out of a German producer who's movies are absolute shit. That producer challenged anyone who writes a bad review about any of his work to a boxing match. Lowtax took him up on that offer, then wrote another bad article about him.

The "Leave Peppermint Patti Alone" video is great!

Actually he never watched any of the guys movies. SomethingAwful intentionally write stupid reviews to wind up the fanbois. Just the first he got the crap kicked out of him for one of them.

Actually I think it is all part of the same thing. Lowtax is notorious for instigating pranks. I suspect it may be a continuation of the secret meme project they had on a while back.

Waltons

Yeah, it looks like it; especially since he mentioned peppermint patti in the vid that you linked to.
Hardly surprising to see him still taking the piss, really.

so how many something awful goons are here?

I read the forums a lot, but I havn't got an account. A mate of mine does.

Never thought I'd see myself paying for a forum but I did there

There have been some really quality threads on it over the years.

Lowtax is a ****ing idiot tbh. From what I gather in that youtube vid, he seems to be doing a very bad impression of Will Ferrell having a "bad trip".
