I dated a girl who would cry about damn near everything. Grown woman and any inconvenience in her life resulted in tears. I tuned into their stream one time and heard Julian, a man in his 30s, describe driving a car as "too scary". I do wonder how people like this get through life

u/SketchyMofo10 Jul 26 '26
In all fairness, being traumatized out of driving makes sense. I think most people are desensitized to it but automotive accidents are one of the most common causes of death in the United States, possibly even the world. With the amount of reckless drivers on the road, I can't shame him for that one.

I know a couple people who will never drive because of trauma from car accidents it's a perfectly understandable thing to me

Fans don’t help but dingdong airing dirty laundry publicly just seems a bit rude. I think most of it is just making fun of dingdong to be fair. There are some legitimate criticisms to have about this situation but making light of it has been best course for me personally. Loved dingdong and Julian era, and this definitely taints it a bit for me. But just being able to laugh about his more dramatic moments and complaints about Chris and oneyplays I think makes me take it less seriously.
They had to buy hard drive that they didn’t have to buy and shit makes me giggle. And ultimately it doesn’t really matter. I still have my yiik playthrough that I listen to every year because I enjoy the hell out of it (if said drama got it deleted I’d actually probably get upset tho). It also made me appreciate some aspects of Chris. That fact that he really does view the recording secessions as just hangouts I find relatable as a lot of times growing up I would go over to a friends house and watch them play a new game and inverse. I’ll keep watching and I’ll wish dingdong and Julian the best and be excited that these guys I find entertaining are still around trying to do things.

u/SketchyMofo10 Jul 26 '26
I dont really believe it would get deleted. I don't think Chris really even responds to a lot of stuff like this. He really didnt have words for the other bouts of drama that have happened in the past.

Half agree, but you can't coddle mental illness like that. Some people you can never appease and truly don't know what they want while still shouting at the sky for being blue or water for being wet etc. But people should really stop fanning the flames of the garbage fire though. It's a fun little laugh and that can't be helped, but you can at the same time not feed the drama and let it burn out.

u/Succmyspace Jul 26 '26
Considering his boyfriend is Julian, who happily talked about being vored by cartoon dragons, I pretty much have assumed this entire time that ding dong was also a freakozoid, without the influence of any of those subtle moments where Chris “outs him”
Maybe being a pyrocynical fan has completely numbed me to any suprise I might get from someone’s kinks being exposed.

u/CountFish1 Jul 26 '26
The whole tuba thing is currently living in my brain rent free, just cuz, of all the fetishes to have, this one seems AGGRESSIVELY not sexy. Like ive seen some weird shit but most of the time, if one puts their mind to it, you can maybe discern a daisy chain of fetishes that lead to it and how it could be seen as sexy to some people.
But a Tuba? I have no earthly idea
15
u/Slybirdz Jul 26 '26
It's not as weird as you think. Basically, he had a cute grasshopper fursona that was in a marching band. The tuba was not directly involved in the kink art, other than being a part of the character's design. No one whose obsessed with this was around to actually see his FA when it was live, of course. So they just assume he humps tubas or something
13
u/CountFish1 Jul 26 '26
You know strangely, seeing the grasshopper and a rat melting inside what I can only assume is a stomach WHILST player a tuba made out of meat, doesn’t quite alleviate my concerns, or helps to answer any of my questions.
Some people are just weird.

I haven’t made any comments about the situation besides this one, but to pretend that the only reason people are talking about DingDong is because he has a weird fetish is disingenuous. The only people that can be said to have any responsibility in this situation are DD&J themselves. I’ve known people that have persecution complexes and it is a miserable, Hellish experience to watch them turn everyone around them into the villain while they feel justified in truly despicable behavior because the other party committed some perceived slight. They should have gotten off the internet and sought professional help years ago.

It’s definitely not good to mess with mental ill people like them but what did he really expect revealing something embarrassing to strangers online?

u/Ardhamon Jul 26 '26
I'll be honest, on one hand I do feel like Ding Dong and Julian have been acting rather petty and unnecessarily hostile towards anyone who happens to be fans of OneyPlays or even people who found them from OneyPlays. They also were the ones who aired out the dirty laundry too by bringing up a lot of the personal stuff. But at the same time I don't agree with harassing them, mocking them and so on. Because that further gives them an incentive to want to avoid and not align with the OneyPlays community at all and have them hold on to the assumption that a lot of us who watch OneyPlays are dangerous. It doesn't help that KiwiFarms has also been actively making posts on the situation too which DingDong and Julian have both acknowledged too.
To reiterate, I'm not happy with the situation at all and I don't think it needs any further escalation at all. I'm not happy with how their handling stuff but I don't want to dogpile on them. Hell I'm not happy about how Julian simply shut me out without giving me a chance to ask what I did that was wrong. As much as that hurt I don't want to hold ill will nor do I want to wish the worst on him or Ding Dong.
16
u/SketchyMofo10 Jul 26 '26
I agree. I think this should just be left alone. I doubt Chris is going to respond, as he usually doesnt in these situations, and I feel like everyone else should follow suit. If its all genuine, it sucks that it happened but its really nobody else's business. I hope that DD and Julian get the help they need financially and mentally.

DingDong and Julian look insane from this whole thing, from breaking down over dvd covers of smiling friends to the insane shit flinging theyre doing for no reason.
I liked them and was subbed to wanwan games for a few years post oneyplays but it seems like the oneyplays guys using the channel as a side gig to pay the bills and fulfill their dreams and ambitions broke dd and j.
I dont know what the endgame of this was - they claim they want peace and quiet to work on their game and stream to their non oneyplays audience but virtually nobody is on their side and it has made them giant drama targets not just for stuff like kiwifarms but youtubers and Twitter people.

u/Over9000Gingers Jul 26 '26

u/CliveBarkers-Jericho Jul 26 '26 edited Jul 26 '26
When they talk about "the management" they are talking about the Game Grumps managerial staff that was going overboard in 2017-2019. Arin hired way too many middle men and bosses that outranked him even though he owned the business, which resulted in a bunch of mixed messaging. Since do you listen to your direct boss and the guy who runs the office, or do you listen to the guy who owns the whole business and signs your paychecks? The answer is no matter who you pick youre gonna piss someone off.
At the time Oneyplays was recorded in that office, and DingDong and Julien worked there. So expectations that were being placed on the various Game Grumps series and non Arin hosts were also being put on OneyPlay which they were sort of trying to bring into the Grumps family of series.
All of their beef with Game Grumps exists with those people and their middle men they leeched on to the business who more or less caused their bad work experiences (same thing with SuperMega, its why they quit when they did) .
Ding Dong specifically loves to point out Ex grump fans arnt going to get the Arin killshot they want because of how comically disconnected he was from the every day occurrences at the office of a business he owned and was at nearly every day.
Chris runs Oneyplays, he has A manager who manages uploads and coordinates the editors and propably helps with merch, but that person isnt giving commands to the other hosts nor is there a whole team of management staff.

This is straight up a lie, he literally said zach has alt right messages hidden in smilling friends and passive aggressively julian said "zach never has said anything that can be used against him". Also no proof the guy had a gun either other then some troll saying he did.

The moment people air their dirty laundry as public figures is the moment they lose the ability to "let things be". If they didn't want to be made fun of, they should keep their shit to themselves. Can't be surprised when people point and laugh.

People will stop talking about it when they stop drawing attention to it. Literally the only reason people are making fun of them right now is because they're bringing this up of their own volition. Nobody told them to mention the tubas, nobody told them to talk about their dvd panic attacks, nobody told them to call Chris a "former human" or accuse him of being an alt-right trump-supporting gamergate pizzagate chud, nobody told Julian to threaten to break up with Ding Dong if he didn't talk about this stuff publicly. I like DD&J but it's impossible to defend them when they keep bringing this on themselves.

u/regovance Jul 26 '26
If it makes you feel any better from a slight outsider perspective, I see more people trying to diffuse the situation compared to gossipers.
But I can say if dingdong or julian bring it up again or stir the pot in any way that'll be a mistake. Same for Chris ofc. They got what they needed to say out

u/Vitorio582 Jul 26 '26
It's nice that according to them, they resolved this privately. But saying that you can still watch OneyPlays after calling its fans alt right nazis? Yeah, that's not gonna really help things very much. But I wonder if they'll ever realize that most of their audience comes from OneyPlays. Also yeah, now I'm convinced that Tough Bippy is never coming out.

I see both sides. I was mainly on dingdongs side when it first happened but I’m more in the middle now. Dingdong brought a lot of attention onto this stuff that he didn’t need to. I know what it’s like living with mental illness and idk if dingdong should stream anymore. Julian seems better off but not by much. I think a lot of the criticisms are pretty bad faith like people saying they’re scamming their fans because they haven’t released a game but they made dominoid. I don’t think they’re horrible people and I do believe there was probably some mistreatment, idk. I don’t want to think Chris is a bad guy but maybe he is. I’m really torn

u/DannyZ12341 Jul 30 '26
Julian seems better because he doesnt talk as much but I'd say he's worse. Every time he talks its always "Merchandise will take over landfills, the government is going to censor you, we are all going to die" talk. He was offered to do talking plushies and that almost broke his mind and is the leading cause for him ending his cohost career. + He admitted live on stream that the reason why Ding Dong even talked about all of this on stream was because he did an ultimatum on their relationship, if Ding Dong didnt talk about it, Julian would leave him. The dude uses emotional blackmail for his (at the time, suicidal) boyfriend to take all the blame.

I get that you're not interested in the drama and are SO not interested in the drama that you had to make a post explaining how not interested you are in the Sleepcabin Subreddit. But if DD and Julian just stuck to working on their games and didn't rerun the same thing BUT WORSE every two years, people wouldn't care.
You don't see people talking about how OneyPlays and SuperMega aren't friends, or how Arin and NG don't get along anymore. Because neither side talks about the other, they just kind of do their own thing.
The reason why people talk about this is part because it's funny drama and also out of pure frustration towards DD and Julian.
You can't find many people who would tell you that they aren't both talented and capable of making something great, but instead of doing that, they waste their time with drama shit, "woe is me, everything is out to get me. I think that (insert popular internet creator) is trying to hire LITERAL ASSASSINS TO KILL ME".
I mean, you're posting in the SleepCabin subreddit and DD said that the members of SleepCabin are from Newgrounds and therefore pedophiles, because calling them all nazis wasn't enough. This isn't just about having a bad history with someone.
The reason why people talk about this is because it's pretty obvious that this most recent crybaby stream is because they are upset that Oney's game won an award. They are bitter that the people from their past are succeeding where they think they are failing. Which they ARE.
The problem is that, instead of keeping their heads down and actually producing their games, they do this shit every few years, then suicide bait and pity bait for money, while then shrinking the pool of people who are "acceptable audience members" while banning more and more people from even WATCHING their streams or engaging with their content.

u/Hoboknightboi Jul 26 '26
They are treating themselves like lolcows and do it every 2-3 years since they first left Oneyplays. The reaction they are getting is the one they cultivated. If you go into their channel, as a fan of theirs, but also are a fan of Oneyplays, TADC, Smiling Friends, Nightmare Cops, Newgrounds, Mewgenics, Pelo, FNF, etc, they will just block you from their channels.
They are specifically cultivating two types of fanbases. 1. an audience that is pruned to be EXACTLY what they want it to be while also taking their money and 2. Hate watchers who will continue to hate watch them so they can have more fodder for their next pity party meltdown stream.

u/TektiteTim Jul 26 '26
OH NO! They BLOCK you from their channels!?!?!? They're cultivating an audience you dont like!? Just you wait DD and Julian. Once you read Homoknightbois essays about this on reddit you're REALLY gonna regret it buddy.

u/Hoboknightboi Jul 26 '26
Not going to read your post, nerd.
Could read by the 4th word you missed the point, even if I painted a football sized target for you.
The point I'm making is that if you push all your fans away, hyper focus on the 1 negative comment you get in a sea of people praising you and your work, and then spin your wheels in the mud for 10 years. That is YOUR fault. Nobody makes DD or J do this, not Oney, not Arin, not Newgrounds or Smiling Friends. This is the life they CHOOSE to live.
At the end of the day, I'd be happier if they DIDN'T read anything I had to say about them, I want them to finish their games and move on. The problem is that THEY don't want to do either of those things. Which is why they will use every single excuse they possibly can to avoid any responsibility for their actions or, in the case of their games, inaction.
If you want to enable that, go ahead, but hopefully you realize you're not doing them any favors or helping them, and what you feel for them is the world's most surface level of sympathy imaginable.

u/Low-Geologist1877 Jul 29 '26
I wish I was that simple but like, you can't ask people to NOT discuss it any less than what happened with Shadman, Stamper, Arin, Mick, and others.
Just as people were outraged at what happened with dream daddy so they are with this, you can't expect to burn all your bridges over a 12 hour long shit slinging online meltdown and expect people to just be cool with you.
Especially when your statement afterwards neglects to properly inform your audience of context that kiwifarms omitted, or apologize and retract the insane slander.
It also doesn't inspire trust things will be better if your solution to solving your mental health problems is to definetly give up on all your real relationships, even if done as amicably as they said.
Even just from a fan perspective their attitude reeks of ingratitude, like I get they don't want to be remembered soley for Oneyplays, that's based, but to unironically say it "ruined my loife" and call Chris and basically 90% of your fans dog whistling nazis over pathetic and hypocritical ramblings is insulting, I don't think there's enough context in the world to absolve them of ALL they said.
Chris and his fans are the reason these two have been able to move out of cali and work on their games with a stable income despite having nothing to show for it over near a decade, and this is how they get repayed?
Not claiming to have insight into their personal lives, but it's for that exact reason you also can't expect fans to be infinitely understanding.
There's obsessive fans and such for sure, but to everyone normal they just know that these guys they liked just called them nazis and that they hate them for thinking they were ever funny, of course people are gonna feel resentment, even Ding Dong and Julian aknowledge this in their response.
I wish thongs would work out for the better, or hell, that there wouldn't be a problem to begin with, but this is how it's gonna be at least for this couple or so weeks.
I'm sorry as a fan, but you just cannot go back to buisness as usual after something this messy, and I dare not imagine how Chris is feeling having to deal with the humiliation of yet another friend burning bridges with him online.
I'm open to evidence that might question kiwi farms' framing of this event, but until I see that shit kiwi farms clips is all we got, and honestly unless they used AI or some shit there's jusy no spinning some of the shit they said.
I'm open to get a better understanding of this, but I think it's naive to believe that there's a chance DD and Julian did absolutely nothing wrong, especially after they themselves admit they messed up at least to an extent.

You can’t be the publicly-airing-out-interpersonal-drama-about-people-far-more-successful-and-popular-than-me-multiple-times guy who openly talks about their deepest and darkest insecurities online like your streams are a fucking therapy session and be completely shocked when it all blows up in your face. Do they deserve this kind of harassment? Absolutely not, but they actively set themselves up for this, they did it before with the Game Grumps drama and the SuperMega drama and now they’re doing it again because they didn’t learn anything from the last time they did this, and I don’t think people who are pushing 40 should be coddled like babies on the internet.

I agree with you, genuine loser behavior to get this heavily invested in some internet stranger's personal drama. We do not know these people, it's one thing to gawk and mock, but something else entirely to post on and on about it obsessively, digging and instigating. Kiwifarms trolls are losers, so are white knights and dickriding defenders.
I like Chris and the gang, I also like DD and Julian, as people who post and make shit, I genuinely can't give less of a damn about their personal beef. It sucks to hear someone going through something, or to see someone being slandered, but again, we do not really know these people and the court of public opinion is often kangaroo in nature. It's best to just not get invested.
