So yeah, this redneck son of a hillbilly has been around for some time. Started off getting in Irate Gamer's hair before evolving into an obnoxious lolcow himself. Read it and weep.

Yeah, after his Action 52 review and some video on video game cover art, there wasn't much else in terms of interesting videos from this guy.Oh, what a blast from the past of 2007. Silent Rob's Action 52 review was one of the funniest things I've ever seen, but that was about it. As far as YouTube goes, he's really a one-hit wonder.
Because it's ironic since this guy is (or was if he doesn't do game reviews anymore) an "angry" critic. Outside of the foul-mouthed critic shtick, his only claim to fame aside from what Katsu mentioned may as well also be his feud towards IrateGamer and some videos he made about Gamestop.Why do people with "Silent" in their name never STFU?

Because it's the internet, of course people won't be silent. Especially if they're doing the "Angry reviewer/commentator" shtick.Why do people with "Silent" in their name never STFU?
Needless to say, I think he pretty much left the Internet, since he hasn't uploaded a vid in a year or more.
Ngl. I liked his AVGN impression.Wow, I never knew this guy had a thread here. I followed him back when the infamous $5 website was put up. You had to email him your password and username, iirc. Did anyone save the video where he got mad at his subscribers for complaining about the fact that you had to pay him to see ANY of his website?
Not this one.
There was another one where he and a friend were practically laughing about it on camera, iirc![]()
Anyways, here's him shitting on the AVGN, because of all people, this guy really shouldn't be doing it, to be honest.

I've seen enough of Rob's content, his "reviews" from a decade ago were mostly run of the mill stuff from back then. Angry reviewing, swearing. He actually got into a slapfight with AkewsticRockR or whatever it's spelled (where is he now? feels like he fucked off from the internet), because that guy criticized him for swearing past the point of humor. There was also some other slapfight with TheArchfiend, which really went nowhere. I'm not even sure what that was about, but TheArchfiend is one of those faggots with an annoying voice that would get passive aggressive with comments that were critical of him. He'd leave responses like "Thank$ for watching" to critics before blocking them.
Back on topic, Rob himself isn't much of a lolcow. He had drama with other people in the past, including another "reviewer" from back in the day named Grumpy Gamer Bitch which involved threats of doxing her, and since returning in 2014 he did have a few other feuds. Namely with AlphaOmegasin, and DrunkenPunk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhUbzuV12qo), but nothing made him worth laughing at more than the $5 site.
A few links:
https://www.youtube.com/user/ShawnD1/videos - an archive of his older shit
https://www.youtube.com/user/LeisureSuitGaming2/videos - current account, he used it since 2010, but it went dead until 2014 if the timeline in my head is correct
Silent Rob did a video not too long ago making fun of his detractors. Not too interesting but had a chuckle at his costume.

Given the MLP shirt and the fact some of his more popular videos were the brony rants, I'm inclined to say yes.Isnt this video nine years too late?
