Bingo, one of the first non-YouTubers who has mentioned this. You can dislike them and hate on them all you want, but odds are, they've achieved something most of those who hate on them can only dream of achieving. They've essentially mastered YouTube, and I respect them a lot for it. Not to mention, if you've managed to talk to them before, you'll know that they're some really entertaining and fun guys to just chat with. You can't hate the fact that their fans savagely overused their video terms, and Jerome's skin. That's out of their control (but a hell of a marketing move at that.)
Yes, Bajan used a mod that wasn't legal here. Did he actually care? No, probably not. He had been banking on releasing his server soon after the ban anyways, so he was planning on abandoning ship within a half month or so. They're both business people, and they cashed in on a huge opportunity by drawing their fanbase over to their server even easier (no matter the quality), because by him getting banned, that gave him a reason to openly hate on MCSG. At least, that's the way I saw it, and a pretty interesting perspective.
