Now, don't get me wrong, I am not a Joey fan, nor do I enjoy watching his videos, but I really feel the need to back him up in this situation.
Okay, so Joey Graceffa is a popular YouTuber, who decided to make a gaming channel. He was known for his interest in the Hunger Games series, so I was no surprise his biggest hit on his channel was him playing MCSG. Although he is not known for his skill of the game, he still has a lot of fun playing it. He brought thousands of players onto MCSG and eventually got VIP for his help to the servers. His fans have been compared to Baccas, Bajan/Jerome fans, and even worse. This is because many of them are just playing MCSG to look for Joey and play with him. This leads to a lot of obnoxious questions about Joey's whereabouts, but you can't really blame them. Recently, in some of his videos, he has been followed in-game by a group of his fans. Some time, these aren't fans, but anti-fans who wait for the perfect opportunity to kill Joey and his fans. I have seen even Moderators do this, which is kind of a bad representation of MCSG. Recently in one of his videos, he mentioned he might quit making videos, because it is so hard to record a game without being killed by someone who dislikes him.
If the targeting of Joey has gotten to the point where he doesn't want to play the game anymore, then we have taken it too far. In my opinion, targeting someone, because they are famous, or well-known, and ruining the game for them is a real kill joy.
