0:34 - 5:30 - Dev goes into his public image. He says that he has been called polarizing, someone that's chaotic and causes issues, but it's a love to hate but hate to love type of thing. He addresses himself as one of the main characters of Tengaged because there’s always someone speaking about him. He says that some of this obsession comes from games but it also kind of originates out of nowhere. Someone who he doesnt know starts to speak about him in that kind of way. He says that some of the hatred is baseless and is accusatory despite barely knowing him. Again, he knows that some if it stems from petty game drama. But the intensity and passive aggression from the people who barely know him is very bitter and distasteful. He doesn’t mind the attention but the quick to judge and trigger happy attitude is what he finds weird. Marwan agrees with that and uses an example of how you could post literally anything and get negged because its a sort of a toxic mentality that you hate someone so much that you’ll neg anything that they post (writes note: unless if you did something so horrific that you deserve horrible treatment but dev nor marwan are included in that). Dev reciprocates and also uses an example of how he posted two blogs on the same page and it had nearly the same timing, and one got rage negged while the other got over 100+. He says that the tengaged blogs mentality is bipolar when it comes to him. He doesn’t see himself as Sarah48 or Crayadian type of hated on (like he is not known for racism or transphobia), but he’s hated because he has a loud mouth.
(FYI in the next segment I can give a second hand testimony to how right Dev is in this situation and how much of a fucking dunce this other person is)
5:31 - 10:45 - Dev goes into his most recent altercation, who is BenjaminB. He explains that this originated from Danger’s Battle Royale ORG which Benjamin is also in. He states that Ben is the MOST negative human being he has ever seen in the 10+ years he has been on this site. He is a weird, methed out, crackedhead, delusional, needs to be put in a straightjacket, type beat fatgoat. He has told people repeatedly in the server (can testify here), to kill themselves and has mocked suicide an abundance of times. Any way that you think that you can tear a person down, it doesn’t matter your gender or your age or your race, he just comes at everybody in a line of sight (and hurt his friends which was his main motivator.) Dev was really sick of it and he found out the Ben lived an hour away from him. So he asked Ben for his address so he could drive there and beat his dumbass up, and that he’s a pussy ass bitch and wont give it despite talking mad shit. Dev resorted to blogging about wanting to find his address and if anyone could figure out how (which he got banned for), but it was almost a ban for like… borderline doxxing? Which almost got him permed. He figured that Ben reported him and still wont fight him because he’s a bitch, but that's kinda the story behind why he got banned. Dev restates what he said before and that Ben hates himself and hates his life (he does) and that he shouldn’t have entertained it. It’s also about how he barely entertains anyone else on this site when they hate on him, but the fact that Ben is so close to him is what makes him want to curbstomp his ass. His adrenaline got the best of him and he was popping out blogs, which led to his ban. Dev says that before this occurred he was in his very peaceful and nice era, where he was definitely less controversial and more spending time with his friends. He says that for himself, if ben were to continually insult him and berate him, he wouldn’t care but the fact that it’s happening to his very close friends and minors (me!!!) and he really does not care how you feel, he will tell you to end your life. Its not cool at all and that he’s a horrific person.
10:46 - 18:24 - Dev goes deep into his past and where he began with tengaged. He usually watched big brother with his cousin and his aunt, and his cousin showed him tengaged in 2012-2013. In 2014-2015, thats when tengaged has a really big impact on him and he began to have bonds with people like (DannyD, Tanner, Deshawn e.t.c.) because they were all around his age at the time. But before them the first actual group he hung out with were (he doesn’t talk about them alot because it was a kind of a random, weird group of individuals) with people like (T_shizz (whats his user? Someone pm me), ItsAustin, zachbbs, @Crissycx). That was a small era and then after thats when he became more acquainted with the friend group states before. Chain of reactions occurred and he met even more people through Eli’s Midnight Crew chat with people like chibideidara , Hash, #kingmac, marcus, DJ etc). He would always play with the petty bunch/the bad boys club on skype calls (goes a little more into playing with different friend groups and people). He was someone who fit in basically everywhere and was kind of socially out there. In 2016-2017 he became besties with Jocelyn. They were an iconics frooks duo and they ran the site atm. Later in 2017 he lost his account and left for a year and then came back in 2018. He got closer to his old friend Eli and created ANOTHER group (even more banter about friendships blossoming and friendgroup extravaganza), and later on in 2018-2019 he and @nya (who?) had an issue with BrittBritt on the blogs page and would constantly drag her and call her an alcoholic and such. In 2020 he stated he became friends with Marwan and got close with him, quarantine happened, and 2021 is a year he wont be going over because that was the worst tengaged year of his life. But now in 2022 he’s gotten even closer with people in a new recent chat called The Coven like ( iiGalaxyii, BigBrotherDonny, joey96, chibideidara, 2388, e.t.c.). He goes on to speak about how truly vibing and connecting with people on tengaged rather than just being friends was a really good and learning experience, and how he truly connects to and enjoys being with his friends.
18:25 - 22:30 - Dev goes into a little bit about The Coven exclusivity and how some people have been wanting to join the chat but personally Dev doesn’t want them too.. Marwan moves on and talks about Dev trying roblox chats multiple times and how it just wouldn’t work out. Dev says its kind of a mixture between annoying minors (never been in one of those chats, not me!) and mentally ill gay men who act like children. The chat didnt work because they all acted immature and it didnt work. He brought it back two different times, didn’t work. He adds on that his favorite quotes relating to this are “You can try to help people but you can’t help them if they can’t help themselves.” and “No one can save you because you don’t want to be saved.”. Dev says thats the case with alot of people and its important to realize when that quote should be implied in certain situations. He thinks that people in the coven have the same viewpoints and that they are less serious about tengaged and are able to enjoy their time together.
22:31 - 27:47 - Dev goes into people addressing his avi and how it’s black when he is a white person, people accuse him of blackface and he explains how that isnt the case and why many people would agree. He says its because its one of the cutest avi’s on tengaged and he really loves it. He says there is no malicious intent behind wearing the avi and he has talked to people who are black on the site (non-friends) and they agree with him. He says his haters are performative and use his black avi against him and say he has some sort of racist malicious intent. A few weeks ago bryan used (it) against dev and also people say that dev likes to act black which is untrue. He explains that he does not act black or want to act black and he will let people attack him and know that he wont be affected by it. He does not genuinely hate anyone with a close exception for Benjamin but he does not care and insults will never really hurt his feelings. Dev self reflects about his behavior during his past frookies and he stopped caring about games affecting his mental stability.
27:48 - 31:48 - Dev goes into the drama happening in The Coven chat. Specifically named, Zay and Donny. Dev also talks a little bit about Zay and that he bullied Ryan a few years ago. But he will always have a soft spot for Zay because Zay has helped a lot of people. It was very uncomfortable for Dev when Zay and Wes were jumping Ryan for his age and stuff when he is normally defensive of Ryan. He doesn’t like drama in the chat and it almost makes it like a conflict of interest. Dev starts talking about GeorgeFlair when about his involvement and he says that george is sort of immature and being around him is a little difficult but he’s you and he’ll grow.
31:49 - 32:56 - Dev talks about his RTG experience and playing as Xiya. He says he could have genuinely won that but he accidentally enrolled in a game on his own. But he says it was a sign because he knows he would have gone down into that rabbit hole of toxicity from joining frooks, and dealing with Bryan would have been too much.
32:57 - 38:32 - Marwan asks Dev if he wants to say anything to the people. Dev exclaims that he really is in his peaceful era and that he does not care what people think about him whether they see him as a positive or negative. He says people have told him that he was intimidating and he feels differently and that he never intends to try to look intimidating. They fear talking to him based on his cover and he says that they shouldn’t judge him. He says that if anyone has a problem with him, it is a one sided debate and he would be happy to communicate and resolve issues. Marwan says that everything right now must be going well for Dev and he’s glad that he is doing well. Dev agrees. Marwan asks if he’s spiritual but Dev says he's not really sure because it gets deep. Marwan and Dev talk about Mar’s favorite show and him binging it, and they continue on this topic until the conclusion.
38:33 - 39:01 - Conclusion and Goodbyes
REVIEW
Starting off, I have a LOT to say about Dev here. I think I got to see a lot of Dev’s different sides here, some if it I already knew and some of it was kind of a shock to me. But I was glad to hear him. I like how dev accepts his place and how people will keep hating on him but he doesn’t really care since it doesn’t affect him. He has a great mentality and I love his response regarding his public image. Going into Dev’s reasoning behind his ban, I was involved in the drama regarding BenjaminB and oh my god he is a fucking slut cunt fatgoat he doesn’t deserve rights and I hope the worst for him. Dev acknowledged that he was saying very bad things to me and his other friends and I appreciate him for that. I wasnt really surprised with Dev’s past and him going into it. I always knew he was a social and group-type of person. Him having multiple friend groups going on for years is not a surprising fact. Dev also goes into the Coven and the sort of people wanting to join. I had a mention here and I knew it was going to happen once the topic came up. I am a known Coven Applicant enthusiast but Dev wont let me in because I’m “underage” which to be honest is a pretty valid reason but I would just prefer for him to not to be fake to me and if there is an actual other reason, I would like for him to tell me and see if we can resolve whatever problems he may have about me as a person.. If he’s telling the truth then I’ll have to wait I guess. Dev goes on to say that the same people kinda blog whenever known coven members are on to try and fit in and in my personal defense, I like blogging whenever edgar/ andrew/ donny are blogging because I value them kinda like rolemodels and it doesn’t really have anything to do with coven but rather a mutual blogs page friendship kinda thing. It really isnt that deep but yeah. I was not shocked to hear about his response to the blackface accusations with his avi, I already heard his argument before and I already agree. NTM on this topic. Little opinion on the Zay drama, Zay and wes are stupid and started with Donny over nothing. Team donny all the way and I understand Dev’s position. NTM on Dev’s RTG experience but I agree that he would have become toxic and a little intimidating if he kept playing. Last but not least I agree with Dev’s final points about himself and how people perceive him. You can try to hate on him or try to affect him with your words but he doesn’t care, keep hating to hate losers.
