Stop trying to comprehend his reasons, because either he gave his reasons already and you are not able to understand them in your state of mind or because he explains them badly or he choose not to give you reasons because he either thinks that they should be obvious or plainly because he doesn't want to share them.

Either way, you are not going to get an answer from him and we can't give one to you. Your only way out of that is, to leave it behind, instead of running in circles in a hamster wheel.

Well, I felt coming back to this thread, which I'd considered a dead thread, was relevant because of my nightmare. I didn't ask for it. I was doing what Fuzzy told me. Trying not to focus so much on it. So I can't help one slip-up. Sorry if I was wrong, though.

No need to be sorry or call it a slip-up even. It's just how our brains work. Everyone of us has things burried in his past that are left unresolved and that we would prefer to have to resolved. Everyone goes back to it on occasion and unwittingly, be that in a dream or a moment of reminiscience at a completely random time of our day. We just don't take to the forums, we just put it aside after a minute and go on with our lives.

What is worrisome is that he said on Twitter that if you contributed money, "no matter how obnoxious I find you," you're still getting your request done. Granted, he hasn't done mine in almost five months, but that still seemed like he was referencing me, and if he was, then I wish he'd either resolve this now, or just honor my last request and refuse to do them. Because, if you're reading this, Greg, I don't want you to do my requests. I haven't watched your videos since October. What's the point if I can't enjoy them? And if that's how it's going to be, then I want a full refund.

If he is planning to honour it then I don't think you can ask for a refund tbh. You have paid and he is delivering.

His "Thank You For Your Support" at the start of each video thanking me while stripping me of my privileges as a former fan and then kicking me off Patreon so I can't contribute to the community and am not acknowledged in the shout-outs would be a mockery of that so-called "thanking me." And I'll fight it. Take it to small-claims court if I have to.

I thought it ain't about the money? Have you taken your meds today yet?

It's the principle. I don't want him working on vids I can't enjoy because he kicked me out, it's over. And if demanding a refund is the only way to stop him, I'll do it. Though it's not only that. I greatly regret supporting his channel if after eight years, it was all for nothing, that he's just gonna toss me aside like I'm trash. That money I spent on him, that I can't anymore, that he's blocked me from contributing to a community I'd loved, could have done so much good elsewhere. My friends have so much wrong going on in their lives and I could have made it a lot better.

There is no principle. You are not owed a refund and stop harassing this creator. You annoyed him so much he told you to go blow off somewhere else and now you hang around here like a bad smell; everywhere and in every corner. Poparena owes you nothing for your viewership or your ''supporting the channel'' that's not how this shit works. You spent the money, he'll make the work, and you can watch it or not. End of transaction.

I find it disingenuous when you so easily take his side over mine and you weren't even there and just tell me to "stop whining." Eight years of feelings and time and energy and money... and it was all for nothing. Is that so easy to give up or throw away? As I've said over and over, I feel he was extremely unfair to me because he overreacted based on something I said that he took out of context, which is that I was accusing him of not voting, WHICH I WASN'T. And he kicked me out of his community based on that context. Unless there's another reason he didn't tell me. And he was just plain rude while doing so, while I, for example, didn't name-call him at all. If you wanna know more, ask Fuzzy. He was there.
