Wilbur Soot, who is best known as part of the Dream SMP, was spotted at a party with other British content creators. Twitch streamer GeeNelly hosted the party, and they recently responded to criticism by explaining his party's guidelines.
"Please know that everything at my party was within UK government guidelines. We are fortunate enough that 80% of the UK is currently vaccinated. We are also very fortunate to be able to test daily here in the UK with people attending completing a negative lateral flow test beforehand and everyone will be testing after."
It is unclear how many guests were in attendance at the party, but it is known that both Wilbur Soot, Jack Manifold, and GeorgeNotFound were there. The party was held at a private bowling alley with only close friends and family invited.
Netizens have criticized all influencers' attendance at GeeNelly's party for the photos released, where none of them, including Soot, wore masks.
Wilbur Soot went live on Twitch after returning home from the party, but words and phrases mentioning 'masks' and 'party' in his chat were banned. Soot refused to address the party at all during the livestream.

One user commented:
"The 'M' in Wilbur Soot stands for mask."
Another user stated:
"Only way that I will forgive Wilbur Soot for not wearing a mask is if he gie us sweaterduo content."
A third user commented:
"Wilbur Soot went from "stay safe from covid!" to I'm not a big mask fan."
