And I respect his decision.

That said, I will say that Ethans audience is increasingly turning against Gator - when he speaks, chat turns against him. Theres also a notable number of anti-Gator comments left on recent videos. Whether readers of this post agree or disagree with me on the co-hosts, im sure you'll concede there is a "weakness" there. Assholes, which comprise much of our community, are particular good at sniffing out weakness - its something which Baked Alaska showed, its something most lolcows show, and for better or worse, its something Gator/Zidan (to a lesser extent) show.

I don't remember a thing about Gator in most streams, I just assumed he was mostly producer. Zidan is a mixed bag. He often doesn't really know what he's talking about, but it would be a shame lose him unloading on someone he disagrees with. Well above average at berating people.

Zidane vs BronxBlogger was great because they obviously hate each other so much.Plus of course it as Zidane who thought of asking Matt to go to his Youtube reports page and screen share it.

Yeah, gator's mostly in the background handling the technical aspects (like the bot that handles callers using google hangouts like Jim) and playing sound clips. He doesn't even talk all that much, so I'm not sure what the gripe is with him. In the last stream the only thing I can remember about him saying was a tale about his puerto rican ex.

Having terrible guests like Mark and Richard is probably more of an issue than Zidan and Gator.

I'll add to this. The dynamic of the show works because Ralph is the star, Zidan is aggressive as fuck and Gator knows all the technical stuff. It'd be weird to replace anyone

The killstream chat is borderline cancer, and Ralph would be pretty dumb to give it any serious sway over his actions in running the show. I'm not exactly sure what kind of "weakness" you're talking about, the Killstream seems to be doing fine at the moment.
I will grant you that of the three, Gator is by far the least interesting on his own. (I will occasionally catch Zidan's post mortem streams when I don't have to be up super early the next day, but got bored the one time I tried to watch gator on his own.)
 
Also who exactly would Ralph replace them with? Personally I think that's a bigger issue, so much of youtube's streaming community is gayer than an Elton John DJed bareback party, so boring as to be a detriment, or so crazy you'll give yourself ulcers trying to keep up a consistent product with them on board.

And as Dick made clear, he found the 5 days a week minimum 3 hours a day streaming schedule to be a bit much which further whittles down the potential pool of replacements.

Even if he wanted to replace them, I'm not sure you could actually find replacement level cohosts to do so.

Gator said almost nothing in the Mundane Matt stream. All he does is play sound clips.

On the other hand having Zidane grill people and Gator produce/do the tech stuff/play clips isn't a bad mix. I think if Ralph replaced Zidane or Gator with someone with an ego like Dick Masterson it could all meltdown like Andy's show where Andy fell out with JF or the Kumite where Tonka managed to fall out with everyone.

Metokur put it best when he said what they're doing - covering politics and Youtube drama - is easy but once the people doing it fall out it will all go to shit.

To be fair, it's a tougher job than you'd think, and Gator is on point at it. (That particular night, I would imagine he was busy clipping all of the stupid shit Matt was saying live, just in the very likely case that stream got pulled midway and it was lost forever.) That night is a bad example anyway though, he really didn't *need* to say much. Jim and Zidan were both champing at the bit to take on Matt, and Ralph was pretty heated too as I recall.

That definitely is a possibility. (Even though, ego notwithstanding, Dick has a more of a history of being the one melted down on, not the one melting down.)

Theoretically speaking, he could have a rotating cast like some shows do. Have Dick commit to 2-3 days a week, and maybe save one day a week for a "wildcard" guest host, mix and match Gator and Zidan as it makes sense.
(I don't at all think he "needs" to do this btw, Killstream seems like it's doing just fine the way it currently is, that's just me thinking.)

The discord chat is some crazy shit. When peach was on last night the entire chat was just nonstop :autism: about how women ruin everything created by men. It wasn't even all legit criticism either, a few people were complaining about her telling her gross and inappropriate stories about her manlet boyfriend, but most of it was straight cringy incel stuff like "women should be seen and not heard". Without irony. Most communities seem cancerous but this was on another level.

That's exactly the kind of shit I was talking about.

Also, apparently when Null was on and saying he didn't have a problem with people being doxed, they were all calling for him to be doxed "to see how he likes it." (lol)

I worry that if they don't put some restraints on the community it's going to implode on itself like Warski did. And I've come to really enjoy the evening shows so it'd be a shame to see it fall because of rabid autists.

I've gotten so I don't even pay attention to the chat 99% of the time.

Let the 'community' do what it will. The discord is different to the chat is different to the commentators here is different to the other 20 types of people that watch. As long as Ralph and co keep putting out a decent product things will be fine. I feel like people forget they can just ignore the fucktards if they want to. I'm sure 90% of the guests Ralph has on do that and don't let it bother them. The fact that Ralph purposefully and publicly keeps an arms length of distance between himself and any dramas in the discord etc serves him very well. He's a smarter operator than his accent would leave you to believe.

There seems to have been an influx in autists over the past month or so.
-No matter the woman, no matter the topic, they just squeak "THOT" non stop.
-Advocate for rape and violence
-Everything is "GAS THE JEWS".
-People unironically talking about white ethnostates.

I know Ralph is pro "let everyone have a platform", but when you have the most autistic, niche people on your show, you cultivate a low IQ mindset.
The more autistic your consumer base is, the more problems they create for you, the more problems you face keeping your content on a platform, the less money you can make.
The turbospergs that shit up chat and discord with their rabid autism aren't the ones giving money in superchats that often if at all, I've noticed.
They'd squeak censorship if they got purged, but they're contributing nothing other than problems and creating a hugbox circlejerk for their low IQ, low social ability mindset. It may artificially inflate viewcounts for now, but they demand more catering to and they contribute jackshit.

Wait a minute, are we talking about Ralph, or Gab.ai?

Are you seriously suggesting Ralph pull a Baked Alaska and excise the 'toxic' people?

I'd say "commonsense business tactics". Gab.ai is another sperg infested hellhole.
Like some cultures, some opinions are just inherently backwards and stupid.

No, just not cater to them. You don't have to purge people perse, you just don't cater to them. Especially if they aren't giving you money. Which, from the looks of things, the dumbest of the bunch, aren't.
