I have looked up stuff for games for streamers but def never gloated about it. It was genuinely just to help out the streamer. Granted, I didn't go back and admit "yeah, I looked this up." so I guess there is some dishonesty there. The goal is to help the streamer. ITZ MONKEY TIME

I've never looked anything for anyone because I don't see the point, though I've probably tried leaving some hopefully helpful comments in the past, but for the most part the part that I enjoy about watching someone play a game is the process, if I'm just trying to act like a walkthrough it's no fun to me. Though now most youtubers prerecord their stuff so many weeks (months?) in advance that it makes no sense to leave advice anyway. But man, idk. I've been watching youtube for so long, like 11+ years now watching let's plays (not counting the days watching AVGN in screwattack, but that's not a let's play) I've been through all the stages. I know for sure I've left some negative comments many years ago that I now regret, because sometimes I'll rewatch a really old video (like 7+ years old) and I'll find a comment below it and be "holy hell what an asshole". Live, learn, hopefully grow. And on the other hand, sometimes it IS frustrating watching a letsplay, because there are times hypothetically, where the people in the video are discussing something that makes you feel bad, like them explaining how your favorite game is actually trash and badly designed, or whatever it is that makes you feel like you want to want to respond. But you *can't*, because it's not a conversation and you're just a listener, so you sit there watching how the people you like (ostensibly) make you feel bad and at some point you might reach a tipping point. Obviously the right thing to do would be to realize (most times) there is usually no malice in the people you're watching and just let it go, or at least respond without being aggressive, or if it really affects you That much, to just stop watching. But I guess it takes time to learn how to deal with it. Dang ass wall of text, take That! Just in time for Monkey Time!

I personally love when you boys get real about shit. I watch you guys for chill times, and your devotion to that is why you are the only youtubers I'm willing to fork over money every month for on patreon. (well and chillimunati) but sometimes, you can't be just chill, and sometimes you have to just get real. Long way of saying that if Beard Bros is around, I'll always be there, chill or not.

Dude, I never understood why some people dunk on content creators for such silly reasons. And especially with you guys because you're some of the most genuine people I watch on the internet. It's clear that you have passion for what you're doing, you care about the audience, and you try to spread positivity. Being an internet presence must be such a unique form of fame because of how much interaction with fans you guys have. Don't let any negative responses weigh you down! It's such a small portion of people who interact with your content anyway. I've been watching since the first Kaizo and Saw playthroughs, and the positive vibes you guys bring has helped through a lot of rough times. I'm sure a lot of other fans would say the same, too! Keep doing what you're doing dudes! (Also IT'S MONKEY TIME BAYBEE)

I bought the candle! It smelled great. Been loving this series, guys. This episode got very real and though it doesn't happen often, it is always very welcome. Also, IT'S MONKEY TIME!

QOTD: NO I've never done that. That sounds weak and dumb. Love you bros!❤

IT'S MONKEY TIME Therapy episodes are the best, I love the real talk after EAT ASS

Jaikob Davis

QOTD: I don't think I have ever done that specifically, but I definitely HAVE watched a playthrough of a game from somebody, learning all the puzzles and story and such, and then watched a different playthrough of someone else who struggled more and thought "what the heck it's so easy" even though I never played it myself lol

MysteriaKat

I just really enjoy listening to you all vibe out. I've even learned some new things along the way ^_^ Thank you guys for being you and doing what you do. You're awesome! IT'S MONKEY TIME!!!

Trey Edwards

IT'S MONKEY TIME QOTD: I think it can be frustrating when they skip the tutorials, then complain that the game doesn't teach you how to play it. But I usually won't keep watching that type of person, because they tend to be the type that get mad and yell a lot, and that's just not something I want to watch. Also, I've never booed at a movie, but during the second of the somewhat recent Godzilla movies, basically the whole theater groaned when they FINALLY were about to show Godzilla and King Ghidorah fight, but cut away right at the last second before they meet, so that we could check in on what the humans were doing.

IT'S MONKEY TIME Thanks for the entertainment Beard Bros!

QOTD: When I have watched streams of games I know, I do offer feedback SPECIFICALLY if it is asked for. Lots of streams ask for no back seating, so I oblige. I have looked up information to help a streamer if they ask for it, but I make sure to give recognition to the place I got the info from. I do not try to pretend I am all knowing about games, as I have a very narrow view of info I know about games. Also IT’S MONKEY TIME!

As a counter to what you're saying Alex I think puzzle games as a spectator have the inherent issue that the viewers and the player are probably going to come to the answer at different times. You can spend on hour on a puzzle and finally have it all click or you can just look at it and have the answer because you happened to look in the right spot. This is especially difficult if it's a game many of your viewers have already played so they're already sitting there going "why don't they see this thing!" even if it may have taken them just as long when they played it first. This is why I don't usually watch those kinds of games, personally.

We are ALL the left nut on this blessed day! (It sucks to hear how dirty G4 did Jirard)

NekoGordo Entertainment

QotD: Never. If I do look up the solution to something, I genuinely admit that I looked it up, or say "this is what a guide/Google says", and it's usually only if the person on the stream or video asked about the event or solution specifically. I hate being arrogant way more than I hate being uninformed, and have/will accidentally give wrong information and own up to it if it is wrong, and that was just my misunderstanding or misremembering--but to save my life, I could not pretend that I just knew the answer if I looked it up beforehand and live with myself.

PsiRockinU

Qotd: Nope! Totally agree with y'all! I'm just here for fun and the good times! I really look forward to each episode and stream. Always been a pick me up especially after some rough times in my life. I really appreciate you all and the content you make. Can't wait for more!

IT'S MONKEY TIME! QotD: I've never faked knowledge to provide a hint. But I also only provide a hint if it's specifically asked for by the gamer. somewhat related, It's been a blast to watch Brett and Alex play through Mario Sunshine after a million years since he's played it. It's practically a blind playthrough and I'm enjoying him learning the game and just sort of wandering around isle delfino. My wife and I are just here to listen to you guys have a fun time and shoot the shit. Even if that means you gotta call out all of us because there's a couple of jackasses that feel the need to spit vitriolic shit your way.

It was hard hearing about what happened to Jirard with G4 and whatnot, you do your best to make great content that you're proud of and help support others and you are awesome. You guys, all of you, are seriously my favorite streamers for how real you are. I love it and we need more of it. Can't agree with more Alex on wishing lying wasn't a part of the world. Just say it how it is. Anyway, you guys are the best, keep it up, all the best wishes from me.
