People blindly believe whatever they hear online, and jump onto bandwagons at a moment's notice. Especially if they think it will get them attention (likes, retweets, views). Little kids will do literally anything - no matter how stupid - if you frame it as a game. Remember the Tide Pod challenge? Kids actually put laundry detergent into their mouths - not because it's fun to have soap in your mouth, but because it was a fad. If you make something sound fun and funny, tens of thousands of little kids will start doing it without a second thought. Unfortunately, that's just the way the Internet works. It wasn't framed as "harassment" it was framed as a funny game. This led them to draw the conclusion that the meme was true - that an enraged YandereDev was spending all day furiously banning people on Discord.īecause it was funny and making people laugh, people decided to make a "game" out of it the idea was to "speedrun" getting banned and compete for the fastest "time." All it took was one viral tweet to turn it into an instant fad, and within just a few hours, literally tens of thousands of people flocked to my Discord server purely to spam pictures of my face and get banned. However, they assumed that they had banned banned for posting my face, rather than being banned for spamming a chatroom and making it impossible for anyone hold a conversation. They spammed pictures of my face, and - predictably - the moderators banned them for spamming. People started showing up to my server to confirm whether or not the meme was accurate.
Because it was funny and made people laught, it became a meme, and spread quickly - even though it wasn't actually true. However, the narrative of "YandereDev gets really mad and bans you if you post his face!" was a funny concept. I wasn't the one who banned him, and he wasn't banned because of the specific image he posted. After getting banned, this person went to Twitter and said, "YandereDev banned me for posting this picture of his face!" Predictably, a moderator quickly banned them - not because of the picture they were posting, but because they were spamming. The image they decided to spam was an unflattering photograph of my face. In the early morning of January 20th, 2020, while I was asleep in bed, someone entered my Discord server for the sole purpose of spamming to see how quickly they would get banned.
So, how did that happen? Well.let's start at the beginning. Why? Because literally millions of people were tricked into believing misinformation and untrue accusations about me.
