One attendee shouted: "Play some music!" Others in the crowd were loving it. Burnley kept going, telling the audience to wait for his new update to drop before downloading the mod.

I watched an extended breakdown on YouTube of this dude who's been an absolute villain of the Skyrim modding scene for like over a decade. I honestly can't recommend anyone watch it because it'll just make you angry. I was happily playing modded Skyrim for years without knowing anything about him. After I learned of his existence, I realized that some of the issues I'd had with modding Skyrim over the years were actually deliberately caused by this guy when I'd assumed it was due to the general flakiness of modding.

Was this down the rabbit hole?

Yup that's the one. If you've got the stomach for it, by all means go ahead. For me, I kinda regretted watching it after because despite being a well-made video, I realized that all I was left with afterward was a lingering anger and and an unintentionally curated list of things that will probably remind me of that douchebag every time I play Skyrim from now on.

Is the douchebag the BB front man or the potential 14 y/o who gave him beef?

The Skyrim modding anecdote I mentioned isn't related to the story from this post. I see now my wording is a little unclear on that. This post just reminded me of the Skyrim thing.

The only person I can think of who fits that description is Arthmoor.
