Unban Date is February 1st

Ice, I will willingly say that I am not really a fan of yours anymore although I do still enjoy the community that you have created. I don't mean this in an offensive way and I'm sure either way I will get hate from people here.

Here's what I mean, when you first started streaming RuneScape, it was like you actually enjoyed doing the trolly, funny, stuff you didn't worry about putting on an entertaining facade/character/persona that is "Ice Poseidon". What made me initially enjoy your streams was the carelessness you put into them, they were raw and entertaining due to your natural humor of your real personality. Here's an example from your older videos - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmmX6sswF1U.

In this video, it seems (to me at least) that you actually enjoyed messing around with these people on RuneScape where as of lately you focus way too much on trying to entertain us as viewers to the point in which its unenjoyable to watch. I feel like with your IRL streams, you have these forced interactions with people and say stupid, almost obnoxious things to the people you're interacting with IRL all in attempt to entertain us. I may be the only one who sees it like this, but in my opinion I feel like it would be much more entertaining if everything didn't feel so forced and you just were yourself (something a lot of people don't know how to do, so I understand).

A great aspect of twitch is the raw, uncut, unscripted nature of streams. Whereas in your streams the past few months, it seems as if you try so hard to portray the persona of "Ice Poseidon" to where it seems forced and fake.

I'm not saying stop IRL streams, or only play runescape only. I'm saying, I just really enjoyed the natural Ice Poseidon that didn't try so hard to entertain us. However, the streams that were very prepared and unique such as the bob ross stream, the first few cooking streams, etc were truly entertaining as they were new ideas that we hadn't really seen much on twitch in a way that you did it. Those were the kinds of "planned" streams that were enjoyable, to me at least.

However, my opinion is invalid and my angus is peppered for the hate.

I'd love to hear other peoples opinions on this, maybe the conversation about it can really help ice get out of the dark state he may be in with this 45 day ban - whether you agree or not, the criticism from both sides will really help Ice entertain us in a way the majority of us enjoy his streams.

P.S. I am looking forward to the vlogs as it gives you a new opportunity to put out content that is new and hopefully refreshing to us.
