I have looked through the topics 3 times in a row and couldn't believe there was no Krebs fan club to be found! <444>3 his casts and livestreams are always very entertaining :).

Krebs gets alot of stick for some reason. For me personally I have nothing against the guy and he was a pleasure to meet at Eurogamer last year. His casts are also entertaining =).

Only reason he's not most popular thing on youtube is because of competition from Imperial Dane

Not shit, when he starts to talk about health I imagine him pumping irons with one hand while moving the camera with the other :P.

He is also venal, inexperienced in COH, over-ambitious, narcissitic, lacking fluency in the English tongue and generally awful(without any admission that it might be so).His low point, I think, was when he published a vid last summer - now long since removed - torching all the other shoutcasters in comparison to himself. At that point, a GR SS specialist stated he would never watch another Krebs vid. I concurred.

Here are the comparable rankings for Aberdeen Pharmacy dept where Krebs aspires to administer drugs to y'all. No wonder the cry goes up: 'the drugs don't work'.

Hans!

Marcus and his numbers.

MajorBloodnok: Remember the Brian Wood Memorial Trust episode? What was that then? Dickweed.

And Rogers... I am imagining that scene right now, you know, the one with the guy and the baseball bat. He says, "You!". The man tries to run, and to no avail the kraut is gunned down just the same by these "jewdog" friends. They say the movies don't teach us anything. Not true.

I think I can accurately describe why Krebs gets a lot of dislike from a lot of people despite his success.

He's a bit like the Walmart of CoH. He's successful but a lot of people don't like how he operates. For example asking for donations for an i7 whilst streaming at 720p at high settings, or his brief casting of the latest games whilst their popularity is at a high. He's the quintessential "Susbcribe/Like/Favourite and tell all your friends" - YouTuber, some people find that obnoxious because it comes across like he cares more about growth of his channel than the strength of the content itself.

That's fine though because despite growth I'd say that the audience you capture matters just as much. What's the point in 1000s of viewers if they are on average less passionate about the game? But that's fine because someone has to capture the casual player market, and that's what Krebs has done. He enjoys the more casual side of CoH and caters to fans of it. However when Krebs is 4 out of 5 of your suggested videos on YouTube because you watched an episode of another Shoutcaster's video it can get annoying. Economies of scale in action.
