73[[folder: Achievement Hunter]]
74''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamCity''. The achievement is - literally - paying your respects at the site where Bruce's parents were killed. Being Creator/RoosterTeeth, they try to lighten the situation with humor - claiming the chalk outlines make it look like Martha Wayne was giving a blowjob to Thomas when they died - but instead of [[CrossesTheLineTwice crossing the line twice]], it only crosses the line.
75* Tropers/ZetaRidge: Creator/AchievementHunter, their co-op Let's Play on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOh77-SMGrQ Ghost Recon Future Soldier]] is one of their weakest if not their worst so far. Gavin is especially cringeworthy on his playthrough when getting either consistently killed, getting caught, or "accidentally" killing civilians. I honestly wouldn't mind if they were goofing around but all in all, they were playing the game wrong not for comedy but rather obliviousness and sheer ignorance.
76* Tropers/JosephCBadass: Achievement Hunter has a number of such moments, but the defining moment has to be the 37th episode of their Let's Play Minecraft series, "Clouds." The objective of the game is to platform a long series of small blocks stationed high in the air, make it to the end of the course, mine the Tower Of Pimps, descend to the ground, and erect it by your pedestal, all while in 3rd person mode. To win the episode, one of the guys has to do this twice. [[TheAce Ray]] ends up doing this twice, but on his second time making it to the end of the course, we suddenly get live footage of the office, where we see Ray playing the game. In the background, Gavin gets up from his seat, walks up to Ray, and puts his hand on Ray's controller to make him walk off the course and die, prolonging the game. I choose this as my dethroning moment because Gavin ''very'' blatantly cheated by messing with Ray's controller. Now, I understand that if Ray won there, the episode would've been too short to be a Let's Play (and later in the series, this happens again to Ray), but cheating in an attempt to prolong the episode just isn't right. What makes this moment even worse is how the others will occasionally make fun of Ray over this,
77-->'''Michael:''' Ray, can you believe the frustration I'm feeling? (later) Ray, don't be such a fucking poor sport.
78** And in response, Ray can be heard fuming over this. And just to twist the knife one last time, Ryan makes it to the end of the course for a second time, but before he can mine the tower, Michael makes it right behind him, and Ryan, in response, breaks the block Michael was standing on, sending him plummeting to his death, which is also against the rules (in every episode, you're disallowed from destroying the terrain unless otherwise noted) and when the others realize what he's done, Gavin is the very first one to get on Ryan about cheating, making him not only a cheater, but a massive hypocrite on top of that. Geoff also comes across as hypocritical, seeing as he banned Caleb from Let's Plays for cheating in an earlier episode, but here, he goes on to add insult to injury as well by telling everyone not to cheat anymore, while completely ignoring Gavin. This entire episode just featured all the Achievement Hunters at their most mean-spirited, and if it weren't for the ending of the episode being the most perfect ending possible (Gavin made it to the end completely legitimately, fought off Ray who also made it to the end, mined the tower, but placed it on Ray's pedestal, giving Ray the final point needed to win the game), I'd have considered this episode to be unwatchable.

81[[folder:The Bad Webcomics Wiki]]
82* Tropers/{{Kenyastarflight}}: The Bad Webcomics Wiki -- [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a wiki devoted to reviewing bad webcomics]] -- has long been biased against UsefulNotes/{{furry|Fandom}} and {{Animesque}}/manga-esque webcomics, though they'll usually find other flaws to dissect in said webcomics besides the furry/anime-ish aspect. The point where it became a Dethroning Moment was in their Reactions section, where someone wrote a [[http://badwebcomicswiki.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Angry_Reactions#The_Chronicles_of_Loth rebuttal to the creator's reaction]] to their review of ''Webcomic/ChroniclesOfLoth''. Here the respondent flat-out stated, and I quote (emphasis theirs) "It ''is'' furry, and it ''is'' anime, and it ''is'' therefore terrible." Since when was not liking something justification for claiming it's terrible? The people behind the BWW may not be fond of anime or the furry fandom, but claiming that anything furry/anime is terrible just because they don't like it is idiotic. Their anti-furry and anti-anime bias was pretty obvious before, but hearing them flat-out proclaim it was the true DMOS.
83* Tropers/IndyRevolution: My specific moment for them is one that [[NeverLiveItDown lives in infamy]]-the site's official Twitter account's reaction to Chris-Chan's house [[NightmareFuel catching fire with her, her mother, and several animals inside.]] [[MoralEventHorizon They cheered it on.]] [[SmugSnake Then they laughed at someone saying they shouldn't cheer on the possible fiery deaths of innocent people.]] When [=CWCki=], the website literally devoted to making fun of her, [[EveryoneHasStandards finds your actions disgusting and pathetic]], then you know you are.
84* Sammettik: The ''Neokosmos'' review, which was written the same "Anti-Furry" guy above, at one point in its "author biography" devolved into a rant about how much ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' sucked, with the reviewer calling Steven a crybaby and a "fat fucker". I don't even like ''Steven Universe'' and I still found that way out of line. It was removed later, but it was the start of my disillusionment with the wiki that would eventually lead me to swear off it forever.
85* ''Stonetoss'':
86** Tropers/{{Lalapolpolpol}}: I had long become dilusioned over BWW turning into more and more of a circlejerk with a higher dedication towards insulting webcomics over the writers bias instead of a wiki reviewing, well, bad webcomics. I think the apex of this shitness was in 2022's review of ''Stonetoss''. Yes, the infamous alt-right cartoonist. They have mocked other far-right nuts before, so surely they would spend the review pointing out Stonetoss lack of research, offensive insults disguised as BlackComedy and bigoted views. Nope! The review is a gigantic apologistic propaganda, with the writer completely downplaying Stonetoss self-admitted nazi positions with the laughable defense of "He just wants to make people think about society guys!" while arguing that he "mocks every political side" including republicans. Yes, of course, the man who "wants to make society think" by copy-pasting stereotypical imagery alongside crude, bargain-bin "jokes - while ignoring the fact that many people further on the right criticize republicans for ''being too moderate'' which is why Stonetoss ocasionally mocks them too. At multiple times the article feels less like a review of the comic's contents themselves and more like an attempt at doing a ImplausibleDeniability of Stonetoss political positions, which of course are defended through the use of JustJokingJustification. The cherry on top is the article finishing with a [[InsaneTrollLogic "genius"]] comment - saying that if those who opposed Stonetoss stopped giving him material, he wouldn't mock them, which the writer claims it's impossible given "the SJW's who hate him". 'Cause of course the [[SarcasmMode only reason why somebody would dislike Stonetoss is if they are "SJW" right?]]
87** Levitator: My dethroning moment is also from the Stonetoss review. The reviewer made the claim that Stonetoss also attacked Republicans and Trump. I strive to be an open-minded fellow, so I clicked on the links to see if I might have been wrong about Stonetoss. They linked to a comic in which Stonetoss criticized Republicans for calling Democrats racist, with the implication being that they should embrace being racist. Another attacked Republicans for supposedly worshipping black conservatives -- apparently there's something wrong with supporting people who share your views regardless of race? Finally, the comic against Trump was actually just whining about him supporting Israel -- just the artist's typical anti-Semitism. All in all, Stonetoss will criticize Republicans...for not being racist ''enough.'' He is not an EqualOpportunityOffender, just a consistent attacker of everyone less racist than him. He hides behind his alleged criticism of both sides to disguise his hateful ideology. The reviewer is either too dense to realize this or shares Stonetoss's duplicity, and both reflect badly on this wiki.

90[[folder:The Cartoon Hero]]
91* Tropers/{{taylorkerekes}}: I enjoy watching ''WebVideo/TheCartoonHero'', as lot of his videos are rather interesting and informative, but his absolute worst moment in my book deals with his Top 20 Most Hated Characters video, particularly Lucy Van Pelt's entry. Now while I can be perfectly understand this character being on anybody's list of characters they despise, even though she is one of my favorite ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}'' characters, the Hero really goes over the line when he gets to at least two comeuppances that Lucy has received over the years, from Charlie Brown turning invisible on her so he can kick the football (which to me is up for a moral debate) to [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Peter Griffin]] beating her up, the latter of which the Hero declares in a rather devious-sounding tone: "That is so satisfying!" Hold on a goddamn second--You actually enjoyed that? You actually think that even [[WouldHurtAChild children should receive such harsh punishments from grown adults?!!]] I don't care if it's just a cartoon! Seeing Lucy getting beat up by a grown man, no matter how bitchy others say she is, is just as bad as seeing [[https://youtu.be/Wl9y3SIPt7o Judge William Adams mercilessly beat his daughter with a belt]]!
92* fluffything: For me, the DMOS was the beginning of his review of ''Equestria Girls''. Why? Two reasons. First off, he calls people who complained about [[FanNickname Alicorn Twilight]] (and Hasbro's marketing practices in general) "Insane Bronies". That's just immature. Even if he doesn't agree with their opinions, that doesn't give them the right to call them insane. The second reason is even worse. When he explains that the movie got a limited theatrical release, he explains that many Bronies chose to instead watch pirated online downloads of the movie. He then makes the claim that said Bronies did so because they didn't want to be viewed as pedophiles for wanting to see a movie geared towards children [[{{Beat}} ...]] What? Are you kidding me? That's just ridiculous. There are so many other and far more legitimate reasons why someone would be unable to see the movie in theaters. Maybe the movie wasn't playing near where they lived, maybe they couldn't see it due to scheduling conflicts, or maybe they were simply broke at the time and couldn't afford going to the movies. But, no, instead, The Cartoon Hero decides to make a MistakenForPedophile joke. Again, that's just immature.
93* Creator/{{shonengirl}}: The above two don't really bother me that much, since I know where he's coming from, and at worse find them just somewhat tasteless. However, his review of ''Anime/PokemonOrigins'' was just poorly made. Highlights include mistaking the year the first Pokemon games were released as 1995 (it's actually 1996, and to make this worse this was shown in a clip in the video itself) and mistaking 2015 as its 20th anniversary (so this wasn't a script error either), questioning why Team Rocket needs scientists and wild Pokemon to create and test the Master Ball, and apparently not knowing who Red, one of the most well-known and well-loved characters in the fandom, to the point of being a MemeticBadass, is. The worst and most cringeworthy part, however, has to be him seeing ''Origins'' being TruerToTheText of the original games as a flaw, and that it takes away the "charm" of the anime. Um... That's the point, bro. It's supposed to be a more faithful adaptation. Stop thinking about the main anime, that has almost nothing to do with ''Origins'', an adaptation of game canon, and the two should be kept as far, far away from eachother as possible. Anyone who is familiar with the Pokemon fandom will tell you that mixing up the games and anime is a major BerserkButton for many fans of the games, and it highly annoys me as well. You know why many fans of the games hate the anime? One of the reasons is that it deviates from the games so much like some obscure spinoff manga that never saw light outside of Japan, despite it being the face of the franchise to the general public. I don't hate the anime necessarily, but he's essentially saying it should have copied the style of the anime because... Togo berries and a vague "charm". Question, wouldn't that make ''Origins'' pointless? Also, people should just play the games to experience the story? I'm sorry... [[FlatWhat What]]... Excuse me, what?! Um, ok, then I guess every adaptation ever has no reason to exist! The ''Harry Potter'' movies? Pointless! Comic book movies? Pointless! The ''Lord of the Rings'' film series? Pointless! *facepalm* As if ''Origins'' doesn't have charm on its own; I know I'm not the only one who finds the artstyle of the movie/miniseries extremely charming. Hero, you obviously haven't been involved with the games in a long time, or at least are one of those extremely casual fans that still thinks the anime is the WordOfGod. I didn't feel anywhere near the same passion that, say, [[WebShow/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] has when he talks about Pokemon. I like your reviews usually, but get gud, please.

96[[folder:LilyOrchard]]
97* BunnyStar: In Creator/LilyOrchard's [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=etvVR8kjmaM Let's Rank Every Cartoon Lily Liked As A Kid From Worst To Best]], specifically when she talks about ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' in regards to Zuko's HeelFaceTurn, she claims that abuse victims don't need to change, disregarding that abuse victims are still responsible for whatever bad actions they commit, and the pain that they cause to other people. While it does suck that people like Zuko have been abused, [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse it still shouldn't be an excuse to hurt others and take all of their negative emotions out on them]].
98* mkmlp: I used to enjoy Lily's content, and even when I did not agree with her view on a given work I could at least respect her. But as her jabs at people and works she didn't like became more mean spirited and her attitude became more bitter, I found harder harder to like her content. This came to a head for me in her "In A Minute" video on Creator/{{Disney}}'s ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'', where completely out of the blue, Lily's asked by a friend sitting with her on this particular video, something along the line of "Which proto fascist would win in a fight, [[Franchise/DragonBall Goku]] or Hercules". To which Lily replies "Hercules, Goku's a little bitch." This exchange served no purpose, but to piss off ''Dragon Ball'' fans for no real reason. It didn't even have anything to do with the rest of the video.
99* windleopard: I do think that Lily had some good points in her "WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra Is Garbage And Here's Why" video but she dropped the ball in several areas. The one that vexed me the most was her saying that Korra being traumatized after being poisoned and paralyzed by the Red Lotus made no sense because she'd "been through worse". To me, this showed a great misunderstanding of PTSD and lack of empathy on Lily's part.
100* Regulas314: I have put up with an awful Lot of Lily Orchard's shit over the years. It was a toss-up between her Glass of Water "Drama Queen" where she essentially called anyone who watched anime she doesn't like a pedophile or her first impressions of ''WesternAnimation/MoonGirlAndDevilDinosaur'' where she just completely dismissed it after two episodes, making total assumptions and no issues about the possibility of it becoming serialized for no other reason than her disdain for serialized content (ignoring how most Marvel shows are usually serialized for example). While the latter ultimately had me drop her completely, the former is the video that made me realize Lily is not worth watching on any front.
101* K00L4: Her "WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel" video might not be any worse than her previous content, but it's a showcase that even when Lily is trying to be positive, she screws up. She starts by bringing up Old Testament god in a way that makes her seem like a reddit atheist insulting Christianity, but that's the least of the video's problems. She's under the impression that the entirety of heaven is corrupt, which...no. The fact Emily wants sinners to be redeemed and that multiple angels were horrified to learn of the exterminations easily debunks her claim. Again, she looks like a narcicistic reddit atheist by saying this. When discussing Vaggie, she says Vaggie has nothing going on...even though she's literally a fallen angel and is hiding this major information from her girlfriend. The final straw was when she tried fighting for her previously debunked points in the Angel Dust section when it really didn't belong. These BlatantLies go on for pretty much the entire video. Lily, if you're reading this, I'm by no means trying to be rude, but either get better with your content and atone for your atrocious takes, or log off.
102* AnsemPaul: Lilly Orchard's anfic Stockholm, having rainbow dash enact on Scootaloo what Llly Pete did to their sister. They were always known to be a trouble maker, a bully, a hypocrite and an absolute blight on any fandom they participated in, but finding out they raped their kid sister and wrote a fanfic about is fucking sickening, as is the thought people woul dcontinue to support a child rapist because they find them mildly entertaining https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhYKbaI5-RA . Further fridge horror, of all the sexual encounters they had, the only one they wrote a fanfic of was the one where they raped their sister?! I feel like hurling

105[[folder:[=MangaMinx=]]]
106* [=EnigmaLobo=]: While LetsPlay/{{MangaMinx}} is one of the more beloved female Lets Players, her ''VideoGame/UntilDawn'' playthrough is rather uncomfortable to watch due to her vitriol against Ashley, having to tried to [[spoiler: get her killed twice in a row during the Ashley vs. Josh and Ashley vs. Chris]] choice, and thus her fury towards Ashley for [[spoiler: refusing to open the door to allow Chris in because of remembering that Chris attempt to sacrifice Ashley earlier to save himself, thus allowing the Wendigo to kill Chris]], and calls her a psychopath. This is after spending her playthrough being unsympathetic to Ashley's plight, and [[spoiler: trying to get her killed twice with no remorse, telling her to "shut the fuck up" when she begs for her life as she tries to shoot her]]. That wouldn't be a problem on its own, but her response to those who call her out on her hypocrisy? She's not only amused by their comments, but she also states that there is something wrong with you for not agreeing with her comments about calling Ashley a psychopath. It's one thing to ignore your own hypocrisy for the sake of humour, it's another thing to insult your fanbase for simply pointing it out in the first place and assuming that their idiots for not agreeing with you.
107* Veranas: I've enjoyed watching [=MangaMinx=] ever since she started doing ''Amnesia'' videos back in the day. But her ''Undertale'' playthrough, and more specifically her vitriolic reactions to fans, was the last straw for me. It's one thing to have a different opinion on a popular game, but playing it in a certain way solely to piss off fans is highly immature, as is trying to fan the flames in the comments section. She tweeted having lost around 5500 subscribers since her playthrough, and I'm sad to count myself among them.
108* Mfanforever: Funnily enough, I was never really a fan of [=MangaMinx=], I only knew her because she played with Markiplier every now and again. However, what puts her on this list for me is that fact after a terrorist attack (It was the Pulse nightclub or the November Paris attacks in 2015), her response was blast all religions for being the reason behind all of human tragedy. Not only is that just blatantly false to anyone who studies history (The two World Wars, the Vietnam War, American Civil War, the Chinese and Soviet communist revolutions, and the French Revolution are just some of the non-religious wars that comes to top of this history major's mind), it is incredibly trashy thing to immediately rant about when multiple Muslim people face baseless accusations and suspicions, let alone the discrimination they face for it, by ignorantly placing Islam, Christianity, and Judaism with the extremist groups that kill people of all three (even members of the religion they claim to be a part of, i.e. ISIS has killed more Muslims than majority of nations). There are times where you need to keep your opinion to yourself and that was one of the times she should've definitely kept it to herself.

111[[folder:Markiplier]]
112* fluffything: Normally, I like WebVideo/{{Markiplier}}. He seems like a pretty cool and nice guy most of the time. Which makes the following DMOS all the worse. For me, his worst moment was during his charity LP in May in which he played ''Yoshi's Island'' with Wade and [[FanNickname Stone-Faced Tyler]]. During the playthrough, they answered questions from fans. One of which was "What is your favorite Pokemon?" and Mark stating he didn't like Pokemon. Now, him not being a fan of the series isn't the problem. He's entitled to his opinion. The DMOS part is that he acted like a total douche about it. For one thing, he snarked that all Pokemon games are essentially the same. Not only is this innacurate, since Pokemon games do have some degree of variety to them (Many games have features only exclusive to that particular version), but it's also hypocritical. Many games follow some sort of formula in terms of gameplay, meaning one could argue that the various sequels spin-offs and fan-games of ''Five Nights At Freddy's'' Mark has played are essentially "the same game". Second, he took the whole "If you could choose between ending world hunger and making Pokemon real, which starter would you choose?" meme seriously. He does realize that's a joke, right? Apparently not, since he then remarks about how horrible the world would be if Pokemon actually existed. [[SarcasmMode Because, ya know, pointing out the horrible aspects of a childhood fantasy is soooo mature.]] But, the worst example of his douchiness is how he acts like Pokemon fans are idiots for getting excited for any upcoming games (Again, tying into the whole "it's the same" hypocritical argument mentioned beforehand). It's hypocritical since Mark has gushed over various games in the past as well. The whole thing just comes off as immature, rude, and utterly hypocritical. Again, if Mark doesn't like the Pokemon games, fine. However, he could've handled answering that fan's question in a nicer manner than being a total dick about it.
113* Tropers/{{alienhunter}}: I used to love watching WebVideo/{{Markiplier}}, never missing a video that he uploaded. But ever since I watched his video on Bendy and the Ink Machine, I can't help but feel like he really is overreacting to everything, trying way too hard to be funny and pretending to be scared by everything, even if just a shadow. So whenever he gets around to finishing ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtCandys 3'', I don't know if I'll ever watch another video of his again without feeling like it's tainted.
114* MetaMaster54610: Markiplier is not a channel I really went out of my way to watch, but after his 'THIS SUBREDDIT HATES DOGS' video, I can safely say I will never touch one of his videos. First off, I can safely say that I am not very fond of dogs. I can't stand the smell, the noises they make irritate me, and I just can't get behind how clingy they are. Being the only person in my family who does not like dogs and living with three extremely spoiled dogs, the Dogfree subreddit is a nice safe haven for me... At least until Markiplier made this pointless video where he cherry picks the posts to make the subreddit look bad and draws unwanted attention towards it. Predictably, his fanbase attacked and brigaded the subreddit, leaving the mods to spend literal hours doing damage control to fix this mess. Sure, Mark made a very half-assed order for his fans not to attack the subreddit, but I refuse to believe that he didn't see this coming when he references the sub by name towards his millions of fans. Whether he meant to or not, though, the fact is that he is directly responsible for a small subreddit being absolutely bombarded with hateful comments from angry dog nutters.

117[[folder: MarzGurl]]
118* @/{{bobdrantz}}: While I find her reviews for the ''WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTime'' films to be poor for several reasons, it pales in comparison to what she says in her review for ''WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTimeXTheGreatLongneckMigration''. How so? Well, during the review, she points out a scene where an elderly Longneck gets severely injured, and she complains that the main heroes decide to help him instead of just leaving him behind. Mull that over for a moment; she actually suggested that a bunch of innocent children who are shown to be good moral people, erm, dinosaurs should just leave their new friend to die a horrible death. That's just disgusting.
119* fluffything: Speaking of ''WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTime'', her review of ''[[WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTimeXIITheGreatDayOfTheFlyers Day of the Flyers]]'' had a moment where I couldn't help but just sit there in utter shock and disgust. At one point in the film, Cera's baby step-sister Tricia accidentally falls into a river and nearly drowns. How does WebVideo/MarzGurl respond to this? She says, and I quote "Because she's dumb and a toddler like that". That's right, a movie shows a baby in grave danger and her response is to essentially call the infant "stupid". That's not how you react to an infant's drowning, fictional or otherwise.
120* [=SenorCornholio=]: I only really watched her ''Land Before Time'' videos because I never felt like binge watching the entire franchise, but my god. After this debacle of a review series, I'd much rather watch "[[WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTimeXIIITheWisdomOfFriends The Wisdom of Friends]]"! The first video had signs of this type of quality, what with her just praising the movie to high hell and her [[BiasSteamroller basically admitting she doesn't like any of the sequels afterwards (only citing "The Stone of Cold Fire" and "The Big Freeze" as the "least awful" ones later down the line)]]. But what cemented my disapproval of this series was in her "[[WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTimeIVJourneyThroughTheMists Journey Through The Mists]]" review. It's at the part where Ichy and Dil are about to eat a sleeping Ducky, and the heroes are desperately trying to wake her up, culminating in Spike calling out Ducky's name to wake her up and save her. How does Marz Gurl react to this? Basically saying something along the lines of "[[NostalgiaFilter making Spike talk is a sin, way to ruin the movie for me]]" or something like that. Just no, Marzy; Spike is an infant and, at the time of the scene in question, [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments desperately trying to wake Ducky up and resulting in him saying his very first word]] [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome which ended up saving his adoptive older sister's life]]. I remember as a kid, I was actually cheering for Spike at that point, even though I never watched the original movie before then, and seeing this person act like a spoiled baby about this moment was just plain bad. It's pretty much the same argument you could make for [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic's green eyes]] [[WesternAnimation/SonicBoom or blue arms]], except in this case, it's a great character moment being criticized instead of a minor design change.
121* Animeking1108: While I enjoy Beyond The Black Rims by WebVideo/MarzGurl, [[https://youtu.be/-Op3UiD0p7o Episode 5]] was a waste of potential when they got to the part about the Franchise/KingdomHearts HD Remix Collection. They talked about the collection itself for about 30 seconds before going on a 20 minute rant everyone and their mothers has heard about ''Kingdom Hearts III'' not being made yet. I can pretty much watch the entire segment by going on a forum. They completely ignore the fact that it will contain the [[NoExportForYou Final Mix]], which fans have been waiting eleven years for. They even admit that they don't care how much the side games will clear any potential plot holes out. I expected better from you, Kaylyn.

124[[folder:Media Man]]
125* JetpackPercy: I saw a few reviews from this text-based web reviewer on Platform/DeviantART, called Media Man, and one part was just so cruel, and so infuriating, I vowed not to watch him? What was it? Well, it was his "Top 10 Worst Simpsons Episode List", specifically, his entry for "Boys of Bummer". Now, it wasn't a DMOS because he bashed an episode, a character, or the series as a whole. It was the entry where he says that Bart deserved the abuse, and "it makes this episode worth watching", claiming because that Bart was an ass in other episodes, he deserved to be [[SarcasmMode rightfully]] bullied in this episode. As indicated by the [[DethroningMoment/TheSimpsons DMOS page]] for ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'', Bart was constantly bullied by the entire town, including encouragement to commit suicide near the end. All he did wrong in the episode was miss a fly ball. He didn't deserved to be bullied, no matter what Media Man says. He also says that the town [[Heartwarming/TheSimpsons helping Bart to regain his confidence,]] and not lock the entire city of Springfield into irredeemable territory, was selfish, mean-spirited and cruel to the other team (What, [[SarcasmMode are they going to commit suicide for making a child you don't like feel better]]), and that Marge was in the wrong for chewing out the town. Well, if he thinks that 10-year-olds he doesn't like should be [[SarcasmMode "rightfully"]] tortured to the point of committing suicide for screwing up only once, then consider me out for watching him in the foreseen future.
126* @/GoGoRiki: It gets better. In the comment section when someone disagreed with him about it and asked if his torment was justified, Media Man replied by basically saying that he didn't care if it was justified or not, he just liked seeing Bart get tormented because he hates him. He enjoys seeing a 10-year-old boy getting tortured to the point of trying to commit suicide, and calls him a loser for doing so. [[JerkAss Wow]].
127* @/AxMachina: Deleting my previous Media Man rage, I found some more [[DarthWiki/DethroningMomentOfSuck dethroning moments]] under his belt. In two reviews[[note]][[http://mixedfan8643.deviantart.com/art/The-Media-Man-Reviews-The-Simpsons-428256345 The Simpsons one]], and the [[http://mixedfan8643.deviantart.com/art/The-Media-Man-Reviews-Home-Alone-1-and-2-419401546 Home Alone one]][[/note]], our CausticCritic says he doesn't like a child character because of him being bratty, or too smart for his own good. Now, this could have been something I could've said was a good point... right up until he had a "joke" where he [[WouldHurtAChild killed one of the characters with a nuclear bomb, and another with a rocket launcher.]] And, to top it all of, in one of the comments calling him out on this, he claims that he's "unique" because of it, then tries to explain himself by saying it was his AuthorAvatar saying it and that [[JustJokingJustification it was supposed to be humorously exaggerated.]] Hey, Media Man. [[{{Hypocrite}} Remember how you said that Bart was evil because he's usually an asshole? How can you say that when you yourself joked about murdering children, and showed no regret, guilt or shame towards your actions because it was a "joke"?]]
128* Bengson26: Adding to his Bart Simpson hate rampage, he claims that the town didn't get him to commit suicide, but he's a "pathetic loser" who let it get to him, So he's the "loser" for getting bullied to the point of suicide, eh? I used to have a lot of respect for Media Man, but I think this has stained his image in my eyes.

131[[folder:Phelous]]
132* @/SoWeAteThem: WebVideo/{{Phelous}}' review of ''Film/ASerbianFilm''. It's essentially ten straight minutes of him saying the film sucks and is disgusting. He admitted that he'd done little to no preparation for the review, (justifying it in that the film sucks) and that he was resorting to overused jokes. He obviously did little to no research beyond a Wikipedia page he waved at the camera just to convince us he did research, nor did he take any notes over the course of the one time he watched the movie, as nobody (not even the director) besides Milos is referred to even once as something other than a variant of "sick fuck." Look. I know ''A Serbian Film'' is one of the greatest tests of wills this side of ''Rectified Anonymity'', but for Pete's sake, If you're going to do a gag review, do a gag review, and if you're going to do a proper review, carry out the usual procedures, take the notes, and for the love of God, don't half-ass it, regardless of your opinion on the film.
133** Alex D. Large: I can say the same thing said above for his review on ''Thankskilling'', with him reaching Mr. Enter levels of being angry throughout the review. I had to click out of the video 13 minutes in because of how unbearable his anger levels were. Also, his overly-long LaughingMad "the turkey fucked her up the ass!" moment was absolutely unbearable.
134* vexer: For me, his review of ''WesternAnimation/TurtlesForever'' was the worst because of how whiny and obnoxious he was throughout and how much he resorted to using the same jokes over and over(which ironically he was criticizing the special for doing) and overall taking the film far too seriously in how it poked fun at the 1987 Turtles. Granted it's nice to know he doesn't hate the film as much as now since he's actually seen and liked 2003 series, but it's still a pretty bad review nonetheless.
135* Tropers/CabbitGirlEmi: For a few years, Phelous has been one of my favorite reviewers, but I am disappointed in him over his review of ''Noel''. Because WebVideo/TheMysteriousMrEnter[[note]]another favorite[[/note]] has showered this special with praise, I decided to take a look at it and I really like it. Eventually, we get Phelous' review, and I just... I can't. What really does it is when he makes a joke about Noel having an orgasm from the girl kissing him. Phelous might not know, but he should think twice before whizzing all over someone's childhood like that.
136* Tropers/PrismaticVoid: While I love a lot of Phelous' content, there are two tropes of his content that frustrate me: His "girl" voice that he does for some characters (which is very obviously outside his vocal range, resulting in it being so shrill that it's hard to listen to), and his tendency to try and sing in his reviews (he's almost always off-pitch and never does it well). Normally this isn't a problem since he only tends to do those for brief moments... but then there's his review of the Goodtimes adaptation of ''Literature/AliceInWonderland'', which is basically unwatchable for me. Almost every plot beat in the entire review is followed up with him singing "X... in Wonderland!" in his girl voice, trying to imitate the movie's opening song. Even if it wasn't borderline nails on a chalkboard with him trying to sing in a voice he can barely even talk in, it's just lazy and unfunny to use the exact same gag over and over again. I normally don't mind Phelous's RunningGags because they tend to be short or not that obnoxious, but this one drags the review to a screeching hault every time it happens.

139[[folder:Red Letter Media]]
140* [=InTheGallbladder=]: I used to love WebVideo/RedLetterMedia, especially Plinkett Reviews. However, one bit was just plain awful--Early in his review of ''Film/IndianaJonesAndTheKingdomOfTheCrystalSkull'', he mentions he masturbates to ''Mary Kate and Ashley'' cassettes, which is followed by a needlessly graphic simulation of such. I stopped watching at that point, and haven't watched Mr. Plinkett since.
141* Troper/IndyRevolution: For me, it was in Plinkett's response to the comments on his ''Film/RogueOne'' review. Some moron trashes ''Film/TheForceAwakens'' in hilariously broken English. What you'd expect is a clever/funny response. What you get? Plinkett simply shows a screencap of TFA's box office returns. Did...he forget about his ''Film/Titanic1997'' review? You know, the one where he says that the film can be the second-highest grossing film of all time and still be crap, and spends a large section of the video [[ViewersAreMorons explaining that the two are usually intertwined, and that crap tends to make the most money?]] And then you have the gall to dismiss all criticisms of a separate movie out of hand by essentially saying, "It made money, so it's good." Especially since ''Rogue One'' made a shit ton of money too, and you were all too happy to insult it and [[FanHater people who liked it]]. Fuck off.
142** [=DevNameless=]: Related to the above, I've heard people talk about Red Letter Media's Star Wars Prequel reviews enough that I feel like they're a SacredCow to some, but I'm still going to call out Mr. Plinkett for his FanHater tendencies and saying people who prefer the prequels to the original trilogy are wrong. I find being a FanHater to be one of the most obnoxious qualities a reviewer can have (for clarity, I mean as in when their only gripe with the fans is insulting them for liking it, and not if the fanbase behaves in a reprehensible manner), no matter who they are, and it's an insult to anyone who might actually like the subject of a view but is open to hearing a critique. I feel like I especially am upset in this case because these are the reviews that codified video essays, and really shaped a lot of online discourse, and I don't think this was a good influence in the slightest. To me, it's like an inverse of the infamous "If you don't buy Donkey Kong Country, you are stupid" quote from ''Series/GamingInTheClintonYears'', just reversed to attack someone who likes something instead of someone who doesn't.
143* Tropers/Kevjro7: The intro for their WebVideo/HalfInTheBag video of ''Film/RogueOne''. They say ''Rogue'' having fanservice like X-wings and TIE fighters is bad... even though ''Film/TheForceAwakens'' also has the exact same fanservice, but they didn't have a problem with it then. And unlike ''TFA'', ''Rogue One'' takes place just before ''Film/ANewHope'', so the X-wings, TIE fighters, and all the other fanservice present is justified. It would make more sense to critcize ''TFA'' for fanservice since it has no excuse whatsoever. This whole sequence just reeked of hypocrisy.
144* Tropers/Furian1996: I recently got into Red Letter Media myself, and I will admit their "Best of the Worst" series is pretty good for the most part. However, I nearly lost interest in them when I got to "Wheel of the Worst #15". I felt that the "A Little Help... For Millennials" bits were rude and condescending and reeked of the kind of millennial-bashing I've seen in news articles and opinion pieces. As a millennial myself (I was born in 1996), you can see how this rubs me the wrong way.

147[[folder:Retsupurae]]
148* Troper/MosquitoMan: An example from {{WebVideo/Retsupurae}}, the [[https://youtu.be/ibaPEq9qCKg poor quality Star Fox 64 video]]. Proteus starts bragging about how he's willing to pick on the player even though they're very young. The quality of their [[LetsPlay LP]] is bad, but it's still a bit harsh. LetsPlay/{{slowbeef}} even considers that video an OldShame of sorts.
149* Tropers/{{theenglishman}}: I know this will be an unpopular opinion, but to me, ''[[https://youtu.be/qMI1-DDklqE Character Assassination: Authorized]]'' represents the absolute nadir of the channel, and is still their only wrongpurae I can't endure in full. slowbeef's, well, beef with ''VideoGame/MetroidOtherM'' is not undeserved, and while his rants about the game in his LetsPlay of ''VideoGame/MetroidPrime3Corruption'' [[FranchiseOriginalSin were lengthy, passionate and vicious]], [[HandWave it could be chalked up to knee-jerk outrage because he had just finished Other M before starting his playthrough of Prime 3]]. But seeing slowbeef going on a ''very'' personal rant against Creator/YoshioSakamoto for two hours ''a full year'' after having last played ''Other M'' was not so endearing, showcasing the worst traits of WebVideo/{{Retsupurae}}'s early work back when they would attack [=LPers=] directly. The few jokes that manage to work (mostly courtesy of Diabetus) have no impact because slowbeef just will not shut up about his hate-boner for Sakamoto, no matter how much the man deserves it. When we already have [[WebVideo/TwoBestFriendsPlay Mat, Pat and Woolie's]] [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL72A90C88878A43B7 excellent (and much funnier) video series]] covering the exact same points about ''Other M'''s bad writing and UnfortunateImplications, without once referring to Sakamoto as a functional illiterate, this video has no reason to exist.
150** [=DevNameless=]: I'd second this with an added bonus of HarsherInHindsight. The sheer vitriol towards Sakamoto was hard to take for me originally, but it's become near impossible for me to get any enjoyment out of after learning about some of the behind the scenes issues that occurred with the translation of the game. I'll admit that the original Japanese script isn't winning any awards, sure, but knowing that many of the problems in the presentation stem from errors in the translation process, such as being headed by someone without much understanding of the language he was converting it to, only exacerbates isues like Slowbeef going on hateful diatribes towards someone whose crime is more just a misstep than anything else. He's allowed to be frustrated, and I don't mind if he didn't like the experience (I myself find the game something of a guilty pleasure, since I think the gameplay was pretty decent, just overshadowed by how the story goes wrong), but seeing him lose his mind to the point of directing his hate to a real-life person is just unsettling, and doesn't make for an enjoyable experience.
151* Troper/{{Asue}}: Their Wrongpurae of ''Sonic '06'' pretty much suffers from the same problems at the ''Other M'' one (barring the Sakamoto hate, which is replaced here by hating on almost every character in the game instead. [[SarcasmMode Much better.]]), with new ones as well: the Wrongpurae is cut in ''more than [[ArchivePanic 30 parts]]'' which makes the series [[ArcFatigue drags on and on and on]] ''and on'' with, again, only Diabetus providing legitimate jokes while slowbeef can only express {{Angrish}} all the way. It's painful to look at it, especially when Let's Plays about this game were [[DeadHorseTrope done to death]] at this point, and there are much better alternatives to this one. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Also]], [[AwesomeMusic/SonicTheHedgehog the game's best part (the soundtrack)]] got mocked as well, just for mockery's sake.

154[[folder:Rocked Reviews]]
155* Tropers/{{IHateMyselfAndWantToDie}}: A somewhat minor one, but WebVideo/RockedReviews' video "Regretting the Past: Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water" really rubbed me the wrong way. So, a bit of context: the guy who runs the channel (Luke Spencer) is an old-school metalhead who loves and worships the likes of {{Music/Metallica}}, but hates bands like Music/LimpBizkit, {{Music/Creed|band}}, {{Music/Nickelback}} and really just any band with a large hate-base. He has this horrible tendency to bring up these bands just to insult them. And believe me, this isn't a problem relating to differing opinions. Not at all. It's how often he does it. It's like, we get it, you don't like these bands. But, anyway, back to today's focus. His review of Limp Bizkit's "Chocolate Starfish". I do think that he made several valid criticisms, and I applaud him for giving credit where it's due. However, it's when he brings up the lyrical reference to Music/NineInchNails in "Hot Dog", saying something along the lines of "If you're going to reference another band, at least make it a good one". This came out of nowhere, and is even more jarring when you consider he didn't even mention the references to Music/GunsNRoses and Music/TheWho in "My Generation". It's a video about Limp Bizkit. If you're going to mention it, just do so and move on. If anything, get mad at Fred Durst for stealing lyrics. Add in other little problems like the "[[SarcasmMode always-hilarious]]" gags of "It was so bad, it knocked me out", "a minute of laughing from other people", hypocritically complaining about all the angst on the album and, as always, bringing up other bands that have nothing to do with the video (just to put them down), and you can see my issue.
156* Tropers{{Red The Hedgehog}}: I would like to say that I'm actually a fan of WebVideo/RockedReviews and his content, and while I'm an empty subscriber of him nowadays, I actually was a big fan of his content. However, I do have to make special mention to his older "Regretting the Past" videos. The newer ones, especially the one on {{Music/Trapt}}'s self-titled album are pretty well made and feature legitimate criticisms about the music that while I don't agree with (as I enjoy listening to NuMetal and PostGrunge--or as it's called nowadays "butt rock"--and even the whinier sides of PopPunk), he is focusing more on criticizing the music rather than the artists and the fans of said artist. Which I feel is something he had an issue with in the earlier episodes. It could be from [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness trying his best to be a Doug Walker clone]], but I digress. His RTP episodes on the {{Music/Nickelback}}, Music/LimpBizkit and Music/SimplePlan albums, along with Music/PuddleOfMudd's "Come Clean" are the perfect example of what I'm talking about. He spends less time talking about the music and more so about how the Nickelback album is "supposedly" about a [[StalkerWithACrush Denny's stalker]] (even though the songs are just relationship tracks and "Side of a Bullet" is about the death of Dimebag Darrell) and really using top-tier propaganda to make Fred Durst look like the Hitler of rock music. It's infuriating and while I'm glad it's luckily calmed down, it really taints the older videos in my opinion.
157** Alex D. Large: When Luke did "Scars & Souvenirs" by Theory of a Deadman for RTP, a quarter of the way in the review, he calls the band Canucks, and even lampshades that he know that's not a nice term to call Canadians. That made me pull a [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark PC Principal]] and shake with offended rage, then shut the video off. I've really had enough of this "angry negative reviews" bullcrap because it gives everyone free reign to shit-talk all their topics with no remorse, and it's the most deceitful form of free speech of the late 2000s to all of the 2010s. I really hope all Canadian followers of Rocked unsubscribed from him for outright offending them and not caring.

161[[folder:Schaffrillas Productions]]
162* Troper/MagisterFlopsy: Schaff saying that Elsa should've let Arendelle be destroyed at the end of ''Frozen 2'' because of "something, something, historical injustice and it's not like there were any people in it at the time. You'd just be destroying a bunch of empty buildings." left me speechless. Apparently, people should be fine with letting their homes be destroyed because of a past injustice perpetrated by their ancestors that they themselves had no part in.
163* Troper/ColdNovemberRain89: His FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse rant towards [[WesternAnimation/BigHero6 Callaghan]] in his Disney Twist Villains video. I won’t contest his point about Callaghan being an ObviousJudas, but his complaints about his motive were a case of him completely missing the point. His motive doesn’t make sense? What’s nonsensical about him wanting revenge? Yes, he hurt innocent people along the way, but he was meant to be a dark reflection to what Hiro would have been if [[RevengeBeforeReason he let revenge consume him]]. By that logic, [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Mr. Freeze]] is a badly-written villain because he’s willing to hurt innocent people just to save his wife. Finally, there was how he used “[[NoSympathy That was his mistake]]” as an example of why he’s apparently UnintentionallyUnsympathetic, which turned into an obnoxious meme. That line was supposed to be an in-universe KickTheDog moment, as that was what triggered Hiro’s RageBreakingPoint and he ordered Baymax to kill him. The way he talks about Callaghan’s motives, he makes it sound like he was EasilyForgiven after his FreudianExcuse was revealed. Just because a villain has sympathetic motives doesn’t mean the audience was supposed to feel sorry for them.
164* Troper/MelancholyUtopia: I consider Schaffrillas a decent enough reviewer; though his reviews are hit or miss to me, even when I intensely disagree (He ranks the second game in the ''VideoGame/{{Pikmin}}'' trilogy to be the worst one, while I think it's the best one) I respect him enough to not think ill of him regardless of his different takes. So, ironically, my DMoS is in one of his best reviews; "Why ''WesternAnimation/{{Ratatouille}}'' is Pixar's Magnum Opus", where he makes a jab at ''WesternAnimation/FindingDory'' by exclaiming "What? The movie was about finding Dory's parents? THEN WHY WAS IT CALLED FINDING DORY?!" Why, I can gladly explain that to you, Schaffy. 1) In the first half of the film Marlin and Nemo were actually trying to find her, aka locate her whereabouts. 2) I thought it was quite obvious that the title was not meant to be taken too literally in this instance, since she's trying to find her home, her parents, in other words: herself. I'm not madly in love with the film or anything but even I understood that was a possible interpretation of the title. Given how analytical Schaffrillas tends to be about even the smallest of details in the movies he reviews (including this very video!), I just find it extremely jarring that he didn't even contemplate the possibility that this might have been an intentional choice by the directors to be subtle about the film's message. Even if you don't like a film, you should be fair to it and not just dump a load of hate on it for the sake of being spiteful.

167[[folder:Super Best Friends Play]]
168* SomeNewGuy: While the WebVideo/TwoBestFriendsPlay ''VideoGame/{{The Walking Dead|Telltale}}'' LP was overall pretty good (giving us such gems like the Shame Car), I have to take issue with their treatment of Kenny, specifically how their hate for him ends up being due to [[spoiler:Larry's death]]. Look, I'll be the first to admit that there are many reasons not to like Kenny, but [[spoiler:Larry was the epitome of AssholeVictim and was clearly already dead anyway]], so seeing this as the main reason for them hating Kenny just came off as silly to me.
169* Calamity2007: Their Friday Night Fisticuffs episode of ''[[VideoGame/ArcanaHeart Arcana Heart 3: Love MAX!!!]]'' left a bad taste in my mouth. Yes, having a fighting game full of {{Moe}} girls which sometimes are played for {{Fanservice}} can be an AudienceAlienatingPremise, but as the briefly said in the beginning of the video: the game has many unique mechanics that other fighting games don't. Do they explore those? Hell no! Instead we get 30 minutes of "Ugh these are creepy pedo characters, I'm going to go to jail for playing this!" It gets old really fast and really doesn't help convince others that this game has more to it. Not only was the video shorter than other Fisticuffs videos, they were eager to end it as soon as possible. If your going to bother putting something as a Friday Night Fisticuffs video, where good quality fighting games are played. Enjoy it and talk about it as such. Not doing a single joke for half an hour. Leave that for the Saturday Morning Scrublords videos where we know that you are just going to talk shit all video.
170* Fluffything: For me, it was their crossover LP in which they play the ''Dinotopia'' video game with the WebVideo/GameGrumps. Now, the video starts out fine with them joking about how the premise of the game is so wildly different from the books' message (IE: The game uses combat in what's supposed to be a peaceful utopia) and whatnot. I was actually enjoying how well Mat's, Woolie's, Arin's, and Dan's senses of humor worked with one another. But, oh boy, did the DMOS come crashing in to ruin it. And, what was that moment? Once again, Mat has to bring up the whole "Feathered Dinosaurs VS Non-Feathered Dinosaurs" debate once again. It's nothing short of aggravating. The whole thing is just the same whiny complaint he had back in the "''Jurassic Park'' Week" videos. In other words, "Feathered dinosaurs are lame and science is wrong for making them lame!". [[SarcasmMode Yes, because a guy who plays video games has the final word on how science should work.]] I was so annoyed by the whole thing that I couldn't even sit through the rest of the video. Look, if Mat doesn't like that dinosaurs are feathered, fine. That's his opinion. What's not fine is constantly whining about it and acting like science is to blame for something that is a fact. Look, Mat. Dinosaurs had feathers. It's a fact. It's something that cannot be changed despite whether or not someone finds it "cool".
171* BalrogKick: I was really enjoying their first time playing ''VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG'' ... that was until after they got the Lazy Shell. They then spent the rest of the playthrough mocking the games difficulty and bragging about how easy it was now. Look, I'm not gonna blame them for using one of the best items in the game. But considering how rough they were doing earlier on, especially when they nearly had to reset the game halfway through because ''they didn't know where the run button was'', it seemed really hypocritical.

174[[folder:[=WhoIsThisGit=]]]
175* tropers/{{Grotadmorv}}: I was a fan of LetsPlay/WhoIsThisGit until his "unpopular opinions" video. Everything he said came off as unusually and needlessly rude. I made a comment about ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosMelee'', saying that I'm a Peach main and that I found it weird that I was watching a match without all the tryhard tactics I use while playing. His response? "[[CantTakeCriticism How about a comment that actually relates to the video? This is why people can't stand Smash players, because you can't wait to have a pop at others for "playing it wrong" even when that isn't the focus of a video.]]" He deleted this comment right after posting it, probably because he wanted to rant without facing consequences. After this bad experience, I don't watch his videos anymore.
176* EnigmaLobo: I have also enjoyed LetsPlay/WhoIsThisGit, and felt that ever since after his "unpopular opinions" video, he had gotten more hostile, aggressive, and opinionated to the point where he comes across as hateful and mean-spirited towards people, characters, and views he doesn't agree with. The final straw for me was his tirade about feminism 'spewing poison about incels' on Twitter, where he responded to a user pointing out about Elliot Rodger and his misogynistic views influencing the 'incel culture' with: [[CantTakeCriticism "That's right, go for the most extreme example of an "incel", such a feminist thing to do. And before you say, "You do the same!" I hate all feminists equally]]. [[InsaneTrollLogic If anything, this type of feminist elitism of crapping on "incels" is probably what caused him to go crazy to begin with."]], [[https://twitter.com/whoisthisgit/status/1151540742965387270 as seen here]]. By this point, I've gotten tired of his narrow-minded and biased comments combined with his overly hostile and rude attitude, and stopped watching his videos altogether.
177** Asue: And now with his Boss Analysis #53 video, in the comment section, he has pretty much admitted that he puts feminists (which he hates) and LGBT people in the same bag. I have unsubscribed from him because of that.
178* NZ9001: It's... good to know that I'm not alone with people who don't like LetsPlay/WhoIsThisGit anymore? Anyhow, yeah. Boss Analysis #52 was the final straw for me. I ''tried'' to ignore him whenever he whined about Feminism, but I think he crossed the line by calling them "unpleasable." Looking back, I'm not even sure WHY I liked him so much in the first place.
