Dax is setting the rage pig up to be Maddox's fat Amerimutt brother.
I dunno, that might be a bit much to handle even for Dick.
Maddox had a limit to how much stupidity he was willing to go in on. And as far as I know, the last peep we got was when Zack James got Maddox to voice modulate testimony for his autistic exposed video. I could be wrong about that being the last peep from Maddox though, I'd be lying if I said I was keeping up with TDS sphere.
Also the "Maddox exposed" aspect gave Dick a interesting angle to work which drew in the punters like hotcakes; Maddox was a formerly beloved internet celebrity and watching a monument of internet history crumble before one's eyes is very compelling even if it is a bit sad.
By contrast I don't think Ralph ever really stops his idiocy. As far as I know he's only kind of stopped talking about Null all the time because he can't stop stepping on a rake somehow when he does, and when I say "kind of" I mean he spends more time talking about the Farms than Josh specifically which really isn't much better, but it's one of the few names he seems to have worked to stop talking about actively.
To bring the contrast full circle, the "Ralph exposed" angle is far less interesting unless he's got multiple truly nuclear revelations (and we're talking about tsar bomba level nuclear
because Ralph already released his own sex tape and was convicted for doing so), because the internet has been exposing Ralph for the better part of a decade now, and as everyone else has pointed out ad nauseum, Dick probably has more to lose than Ralph does with the scales weighted like that.
So I'm keeping my chips on 'Dick hopes to outlast Ralph'.
It's a bet he probably will win at the rate Ralph's going...straight into the back of a now-stopped semi truck while he's reading KF chat on his phone for multiple seconds at a time. Automatic emergency braking can be effective, but not that effective.
