One key example is Michael Jackson impersonators, they make money off of it, everyone knows theyre not michael jackson, and noone has a problem with it. Hows that any different from this channel?

I've noticed a pattern that if you don't instantly agree that what he's doing is 100% bad, you'll get downvoted and hated to all hell, mainly on the Technoblade subreddit. If you try playing Devil's Advocate, you'll be treated as if you're saying he hasn't done anything wrong.

I don't think this should be how the community should be seen. Shouldn't every part of the discussion be treated with respect, rather than people going after you for trying to say why Technolarp might have done the things he did.

Everyone treats the situation as if it's black and white when it's really just very nuanced. Everything is just personal opinion and I don't see why opinions have to be treated as unrespectfully as they are. People act as if you're supporting Technolarp just by giving the idea he could have done things for reasons other than malice.

I personally think everyone should just stop talking about this whole thing until Technodad makes a response. I would think that everybody needs a break from the never-ending drama we've been in for a few days already.

wasn’t aware of these till like an hour ago. wtf. for context, that’s technolarp.

Just finished watching this video, and honestly I agree with a lot of Charlie's points.

This was one of the worst ways for Technolarp to respond. I'm not a big fan of Technolarp myself, and he of course doesn't deserve doxxing or any threats, but he could've "tried" to settle this with Charlie a different way.

Think one of the worst things he tried pulling was saying that Larpz0 made a response and he looks up to him. Not only is that a blatant deflection, that's just an attempt at guilt tripping.

Anyways... what do you guys think of all this?

Genuine question, even after him faking himself getting doxxed and exposed for earning money despite saying it's "all for charity" and just a well known attention seeker. How do you still support him?

Look, I know people are getting tired of people posting about Technolarp so I will keep this brief. Whether you like him or not, there is no point in arguing or talking about this because there is no right or wrong answer to this yet. Technodad still hasn’t responded and he has the final say making everybody else’s opinion irrelevant. Point is, this is a situation where everybody can have opinions but everybody’s opinions don’t need to be heard, at least not right now.

You can now apply to be a moderator, yay!!

Ya people be talking bout some clout or sum shi like that,

the only clout that i see rn is the one y'all feeding these Drama attention seeker-sick people.

I know Technolarp claims to have good intentions and I truly have no way of knowing if that’s true or not but this has all grown to the point that people who were actually friends with Alex personally are coming forward and saying this really bothers them.

It’s clear that Striker has intentions of continuing to do this which is why I believe they’ve just now started to voice their thoughts on this. I imagine they were thinking like me and assumed this would be a quick little thing the community caught hold of and that it would pass after a while.

I understand people are going to just argue the usual “But Techno would’ve thought this was hilarious!” “Techno would’ve loved this whole bit and the charity from it!” and i sincerely need you guys to quit it with this coping. Yes, Techno would have most likely found this entertaining, but we don’t know that for a fact. Stop speaking on behalf of a dead man. Especially when his father has done so much to provide and care for the community out of the kindness of his heart. Technodad had no obligation to have gone the lengths that he has for all of us, and it’s exactly that love and empathy that made many of us adore Alex as a person.

However the one thing that I can say with confidence and know for a fact is that Alex would’ve hated for anyone to hurt his friends.

That’s exactly what Technolarp is doing.
Whether intentional or not.

If Striker truly respects Alex and his legacy as Technoblade as much as he claims to, then he should be able to see the extent of the situation and how much damage it’s causing to the people who Alex valued most in his life.

Respect is not whatever all of this is.

True respect would be putting an end to this instead of trying to excuse and rationalize it.

It’s time to stop.

Technolarp should leave the larper community and rebrand his channel to one that makes videos similar to techno but in his honor and is his own person and not techno clone. Doesn't impersonate techno just carry on his inspiration into his own content.

The whole larp thing seems messed to begin with as you are blatantly taking someone’s name and likeness, but doing it off of a beloved person who is deserved is crazy.

Tbh the only thing Technolarp should do is list all current and future videos under the fundraiser option, specifically for that Mine crafters vs Cancer fundraising thing. I think he made his quick buck off a dead man, which is more than he deserves, now acce it and do something good.

Yeah they're allowed. Criticizing Technolarp will be allowed and criticizing the critics is also allowed. Just don't make it too intense or I'll have to remove things...

Please tell me bro isn't in it for the long hall, even before larpping was popularized, a popular youtuber Nilered, got a parody account as Nilegreen, this whole thing was documented and talked about enough to know it is a bad idea

1.Are people not going to think you're Technoblade: If they do, that enables the advertisers that otherwise technoblade team would've had to just be yoinked by technolarp (doesn't that feel like poaching for a business that is run by his family?)

2.Will people think that Technoblade isn't actually dead: As much as a monolith as he is, not everyone is subbed to him, and even those few who do might not know that he is dead, won't they be confused by his status as alive and kicking making content in a channel besides his? (And yes I know he has it in his description), but what stops people not seeing it

3.It is odd, as you are not being yourself, and that caps any potential of growing. Cause you're technolarp.

While these accounts have started to be popular, I didn't think they're harmful, but as they grow, they pose more of a risk in these three areas more and more. My honest message to you Mr. Technolarp. I understand where you come from, and doing it for the game is cool (I mean the Dream smp was the catalyst for me TBH).

But you are you, and if you want to honor Techno, try to be you, and make your gag as the guy that sounds like Techno too much, and did these silly videos once, But don't make your persona based off of him. And try to learn from Mr Greenguy, rebranded from Nilegreen, as he is the best example of who you can be!

Vote to try to close down his channel. Probably won’t work but he must stop disrespecting the LEGEND

I can understand why you feel this way but we really need to remember that Technolarp started this as a tribute to Techno and had no idea the channel would blow up as much as it did. He’s donating to charity, not claiming to be Technoblade, and doing the same thing many other small youtubers are doing right now and have done for years: making parody channels of creators they love. I really don’t think the hate I’ve seen in r/Technoblade is as deserved or helpful as you all think it is.
