Twitch streamer Jason "Pirate Software" is currently embroiled in a drama related to OnlyFangs, a hardcore World of Warcraft guild. For context, he faced backlash for seemingly running away or "roaching out" from mobs during an encounter in the Dire Maul North Dungeon. Since then, a lot has unfolded, with other guild members asking him to take accountability (after his actions left two level 60 characters dead).

He took to his stream recently, firing back at some creators who have been criticizing him. Pirate Software seemingly appeared to "threaten" these creators, suggesting that no one would collaborate with them in the future:

"For all the content creators who are trying to cannibalize me to boost their numbers for a while...that may work for now, but in the future, no one would want to do anything with you..."

This clip was shared on the popular r/LivestreamFail subreddit and garnered a lot of mixed reactions. Some comments criticized the streamer's statements, labeling him "toxic" and having a "huge ego":

"Isn't he supposed to be some wholesome chungus guy? He's so incredibly toxic," said u/ChuddingeMannen
"The huge ego he has when delivering his low-level knowledge lectures on topics he clearly doesn't know much about is a dead giveaway on how much this guy is full of himself," said u/SpeshellSnail
"This is textbook narcissism. I actually cannot believe his Twitter apology he said that he is an ex-Blizzard employee acting like he was the lead dev on classic WoW when he was in the IT department.," said u/lild1425

Some users, however, refuted the post as being "threatening" and explained that the streamer was "coping" (the word essentially means someone rejecting a hard truth):

"I think it's more coping on his part than anything else. It doesn't sound like a threat necessarily," said u/toiletdeer-
"I haven't been following along with this drama all that much. How is this a threat?" u/giantpunda

"Hope it was worth it for you" - Pirate Software comments on recent controversy and backlash

Twitch streamer Pirate Software is currently facing significant backlash due to his seemingly dismissive attitude toward criticism. Streamers like Sodapoppin have openly criticized his actions and behavior within the guild.

Pirate Software has also addressed the situation on his X account, where he criticized the creators who have been voicing backlash against him:

"If you're a creator engaging in this kind of behavior then eventually your content wave will end but the relationships you've sullied will be permanent. Hope it was worth it for you."

Read his entire statement in the X post linked below:


Despite the criticism, Sodapoppin has urged the WoW community not to be overly hostile. While he acknowledged that Pirate Software "roached out," he condemned the violent responses from some members of the WoW community.
