So it's finally happened. I finally had a nightmare about Greg...

Either you are lying about how light what you did was, or he is ''based on SfDebris'' in content but not in attitude. Chuck would not do something like this for nothing. What exactly is it that he thinks you are lying about?

Content, not in attitude, yes. Want a link to one of his vids where it says "A Loving Ripoff of SF Debris?"

I literally questioned why he put in a "get out and vote" plug into one of his videos, mistaking it for a "get out and vote" plug when it wasn't, which I'll admit was an error of mine, but then he stormed onto Discord name-calling me, accusing me of accusing him of not voting by saying "I fucking voted in 2016," when I never once said he didn't and knew he did, and when I insisted it was just a misunderstanding, apologized for sticking my foot in my mouth, he said, "Don't send me any more fucking video requests," and then blocked me on Twitter, and kicked me off his Patreon.

I don't care. He kicked me out of his community over a stupid misunderstanding. I WASN'T ACCUSING HIM OF NOT VOTING. And if he was having a problem with me, he could have asked for some space. I would have gladly given it while still supporting a channel and community I had loved, that I was a part of. Now that I'm no longer contributing to his Patreon, I'm no longer included in the official shout-outs, naturally, so that's the thanks I get after eight years? Blocking me on Twitter has done nothing to stop me. I just got a new account to see what he posts (though I haven't replied to him at all). So that proves I could have held my tongue and stayed back for a while. If I was the monster he treated me as, I could have kept spamming his comments section with hate posts, yet I didn't do that, did I? I took the high road out. I refused to descend to his level. It's that feeling of neglect and being unappreciated that hurts the most. You don't just toss away an old fan that's contributed over two thousand dollars and been at your side for eight years. That's just being a huge dick. I admired him. Looked up to him. Thought of him as a decent man. Like a comforting older brother. I see now I was wrong.

Given how often you post in this thread saying the exact same thing and apparently desperately trying to put yourself in the best possible light, I have a slight suspicion what went wrong over there and let me say this: The problem between you and him is not a misunderstanding on his part. It's your obsessive behaviour.

Notice the timestamps. I hadn't posted in this thread in a long time. Then I had a horrible nightmare, and it all came flooding back.

Exactly my point.

And I am not writing this to antagonize or rile you up, it's an observation. As written, this is purely what I know about and from you, I don't know his side of the story. For all I know, he could be a total arsehole that ran away with your money for some undiscernable reason, but I think there's something that you are not telling us or that you are not even aware of yourself. Thus me pointing out what I think it might be.

Let me give you an example. We have like... what now... 50 threads (at least it feels like that many) about how much you despise STD. You have an uncanny ability to not ever let things slide and leave them behind and what may start with a minor misunderstanding can end up in stalker-like behaviour and this easily gets people riled up and creeped out, even though from your side it was possibly just an attempt to reconcile, while from his perspective you send him 50 messages a day trying to justify your behaviour and telling him how much you love him. You need to learn to leave things behind.

Oh no, I understand you're not trying to upset me. And I don't think he ran away with my money. I do think he was unfair, but... trying to comprehend his reasons in all this can be frustrating.
