Imagine being banned from Rust for toxicity...

Vincent can and will better himself- I believe it. At his core he's a great dude and is genuinely entertaining. His past and unique style of content makes his road to success much more narrow and hard to find, but he has shown a certain ability to self reflect and improve which I think will ultimately get him to where he wants to be. Great video Jack!

Vincent has always been kind and respectful to me- and I genuinely think he's entertaining. I do believe he can turn his career around for the better, but it would take a lot of work. Unfortunately a lot of his past will haunt him forever but I'd love to see him make better changes for himself. Great video Jack, always looking forward to the next

bro might be the only Rust player that can dunk, at least he got that

never thought i would be watching a vincentsmg documentary

vincent is an extremely entertaining person and as someone with a past where I had anger issues/wasn't exactly the best person to multiple people, People grow up... dude can hopefully channel some of his energy into surrounding himself with better people and not associating with low hanging fruit. great video jack

Very well said Jack. This was a nicely documented story shedding light on Vincent as a streamer and person. Keep up the good work man 🔥

Great video, I dont even want to know how many hours this took to make. I personally like vincent and he has raided me on twitch like 5 times and always been super kind. I think he rly means well, I hope to see him get to the top

Love the true crime vibe. Seen a few clips of Vincent in the past - enjoyed learning more about his background outside his crazy stream antics. Wish him the best. Great vid!

Imagine doxxing someone over items you lost in a game that gets wiped every month or less💀

This is a good documentary, I honestly think Vincent can turn it around like tyler1 and actually have a positive come up, and genuinely it is sad to see someone like Vincent go through things like pains in his body and having not so good of a childhood and his town that he lived in. but just with right guidance and him having to find himself and working out his mental state he can genuinely have a lot of a better time on being a more successful streamer and actually get place where he wants to be. nice job on the video it was really good!

I love that you make videos on things like this because rust does have history within the community and the game. its just not like any other game. ready for the nxt vid

This was cool, i actually remembered this dude and didn't know the whole back story.. Rust has some interesting people, like that guy Shots. I don't understand how someone can daily upload/stream for 5yrs or something like

Another great and well made video Jack! I love watching these doco style videos on rust content creators / streamers. Gives me a whole different perspective and understanding on the person and it’s cool to see their back story. Thanks for giving us an insight! ☺️

played with vincent throughout lockdown, he genuinely is a good guy with a good heart, built a good friendship with the guy to this day we still speak occasionally, he really did make covid alot better for me cause he brought me into his clan when i was fairly new to the clan scene, always showed respect off cam and on cam (sometimes) only time he would be an asshole to you is if you did something fucked up but he is a great guy.

Jack well done. I feel like after watching this video I can see more clearly now, the path that he is on. Love the question you asked at the end to close it out a good message to everyone only he can choose what direction he goes in.

so weird to see a video essay on someone my group has not only fought on occasions, but have raided and been raided by. I imagine a lot of people have also had the "pleasure" of running into his zergs.

asw someone who has 11.4k hours on rust i can relate, iv had full blown mental brake downs and melt downs over this game. thats why i quit and havent touched it in 3 years

I feel so sorry for him, he's just a kid who had a hard upbringing which formed him into the man we see today. I truly hope for the best for him and his family.

Thanks for the video, you got a sub. Even if i had no idea about Vincent or that rust community, but your research and story telling skills are top notch. keep it up. : )

Another high quality video man! Also great to see that you are getting the recognition you deserve, so few people realise how many hours of research and editing these types of videos take, very few content creators out there that put this amount of dedication into their videos and i love to see it! Keep up the great work Jack!

First of all- amazing work on the video. Your editing and presentation is truly on another level and so many hours put into it really shows. I believe in second chances and I hope that community will slowly influence Vincent to change his path, he is still such a young player with turbulent life. Love what you do, I look forward to your next documentary :)

goated video, normally im not a huge fan of video essays but this one really got a hook on me, keep up the great work brother

vincent is my favourite rust streamer…

Hi, I’m redpipola, vincent’s pro-balloon pilot who’s name you see 20:00. Vincent is actually pretty chill, I think he’s just playing a persona.

dude’s got heart issues? no shot, woulda never guessed

Very very very interesting video. I love your approach on your rust related content it is very different then I have seen before.

i was watching his rust stream yesterday and he seemed chill

vincent smg is the funniest rust streamer no contest

Damn I had no idea he was having it that rough before he started streaming, I remember when I discovered him just randomly scrolling through Twitch and I found him at 0 views new to streaming. He was such an odd interesting entertaining character, I sniped him for a bit and he gave thee most hilarious reactions comparable to being as funny and loud as Tyler1 and shared those clips around of me messing with him for a bit (nothing too bad, just all in fun) I just had a feeling he was good enough to be a content machine. but it's sad he's gone down somewhat of a dark path. I don't really watch him much but I hear about him time from time. He isn't much of a bad person when I met him, he was really nice and humble but I really feel like it's the people he surrounds himself with is what really changed him. He had little to no moderation and gave too much freedom to his viewers which nearly nuked his career for good. I hope he finds a good balance and can start his redemption arc. He's a pretty funny dude, hope he can turn it around. good video btw!

I love the editing on this man. You're killing it. Keep it up 👍

This video could help Vince realize that, he's surrounded with love and support.

Vincent was a genuine nice guy when i was in the clan and never had true hate towards anyone

Amazing video as always! My favorite documentaries

Amazing video happy it turned out the way it did well done man i know how much work it was!

imagine being SO toxic even in rust that the games ITSELF bans you

Class video Jack! Editing getting better and better.

Vincent might be the most funniest streamer in rust and I loved playing with him for a while, hope he doesn't get hated that much anymore after that clarification

I play with them on Rustoria, and there is a lot of people with the SMG tag that will call you a slur, no clue if it’s them but it seems likely from what I’ve heard from them

My parents would never let me leave school for anything related to a computer 😭

another banger jack. Maybe one day you can do some interview videos

Insane video Shep, well done!

you know i wondered why i didnt see him on rusty moose anymore i remember seeing him 2020 promoting his stream i dont watch him but i always though it was cool that he kinda blew up goodluck to him

Man i was 100% certain this video was going to be about Lucroan hahaha Great video tho man, as always ❤

Till this day, him and his group are still doxxing other rust players. I personally know 2 people that they doxxed.

Not everyones built the same, look at Tyler1.. you gotter love the villians. Stay humble, keep grinding. People still watch because it’s entertaining

As PrinceVidz almost always says in his Rust videos.... "Why U MAD? It only game!"

The toxic bar in rust is already up there and this guy still go above and beyond to infinity

I enjoyed this quality content, thanks for another masterpiece Jack.

I never heard of this dude before but this video is extremely well made and entertaining, I ended up watching the entire video

the thing that vincent did that got the police to get on him was him throwing bricks at peoples garage doors😭

First wipe with smg my recruit base got inside by the streamer named KrustyEZ. Then months later krusty insided our main base on a sunday haha

He is human like the rest of us, and life is crazy. No one knows his life but him, so don't be so quick to judge. 🙏

He’s a chill guy

I played with SMG for almost an entire year and I can say he is a good guy. Personally, I do think the extreme anger is truly a façade, but that is my opinion. I still moderate in his discord, his streaming platforms, and even pop in to play a wipe with them every now and them. His viewers that come after him maliciously via doxxing or stream sniping pushes him off the edge sometimes. Half of the reason he reacts like this is constantly being cheated on from younger kids who thinks that stuff is funny. I believe that if he could manage to control his reactions, the trolling will stop and it may launch his career even farther. Altogether, great video jack.

Oh bro id love one of these about me 😂😂😂 this is actually an amazing video !!!

I feel like he can definitely turn his reputation around. He has the humor and ability to do so, I 100% agree that he could explode in popularity if he channeled that rage into content rather than controversy. He just needs to learn to control how he responds to situations that make him rage, lol.

Dude his highschool is near me, I remember seeing a random white boy on all black mhs basketball team 😂😂

Dang bro, that was one hell of a youtube video.

This is a very well made video, nice work. First time I saw his stream was during the region warfare event and I clicked off within a few minutes. Freaking out over stuff isn't my kind of content but to each his own, some people clearly enjoy it. Hope he can turn it around, I wish him the best.

LMFAO. This guy had an intervention for Rust 😆 "They tried to uninstall Rust as far back as 2017" 😆😆😆

didnt expect to see my vid featured in one clip great vid

good to see you back amazing video

I remember playing the fancy orb event, I was a nice taxi man got gunned down got SMG clan. it pissed me off as that was the car i found on the road on day 1.

i noticed the watch dogs soundtracks, mad respect

mom, can we have tyler one ? we have tyler one at home. ...tyler one at home:

HOLY a vincentsmg documentary.

I remember trolling those This guy is so hard I would door cam from when you would first start up or mlrs half the time when he was offline

My Ex lived in McDonough Georgia. I think that place can drive people crazy.

almost shed a tear jack finally uploaded

we got vincentsmg documentary before gta6

9:12 ain’t no way Toby pissed him off to the point of writing his name on his chest😭

I never thought i would hear omori ost in a rust video. Actual GOAT right here. Keep up the 10/10 content.

Man I didn't even know that this happened to vincent, He was a really funny streamer.

if i hear denial of service 1 more time im gonna lose it

I knew exactly who this was about by the title

HOPE MY BOY DOING GOOD

Ah man should interview me or some the ogs that used to play with him in 2021. SMG clan actually started in the middle or end of 2021. I started playing Vincent since November of 2021. I started noticing the corruption of rustoria of cheater stream sniping and every time we reported them they admins gave us automatic message of saying there is no suspension with this player. The Hjune part someone started spreading remorse about Vincent to sabotage his chances to getting twitch content creators stream events. Unfortunately there are moments Vincent could have done better of be careful what he says in streams and other people. He is genuinely a good guy out side of streaming in fact he been supported me by praying when i was personally facing my darkest moments in my life.

Most hated? Or most HATEFUL? This feels written in a way that tugs on every heartstring it can to downplay a pattern of bad behavior. Bro got banned from Rust FOR TOXICITY...

Yo I’ve heard this guys plays with Zergs but I don’t know much about him, this will be interesting, common jack Shephard W.

People don’t understand Vincent is a really chill guy

seeing myself in this video was wild

The first few seconds of the vid.... "I hate winnie" hit home hard.

Gonna make me cry with the omori music in the background man

Vincent is actual content something that you never see anymore especially on rust

Love the content shep! rust community is lucky to have you

I love Vincent. His Minecraft streams are top notch and Ive had some good encounters with him on Moose servers.

All the time stamps of myself being featured in discord or team with vincent 19:45 18:55 13:47 Love you vincent ❤

Hopefully SMG clan will be forgiven and given another chance! Awesome video Jack thank you for your hard work!

I always felt Vincent was a victim of his own success, he is the what we could call as a stereotype "a rust kid", and like most of them, he shouts, he explodes, etc. But he's also genuinely a good kid, who found support from some and harassment from others. The thing about these young streamers like vincent, a1dan and others is that you witness their glow up, how they mature and grow. Vince, if you see this, keep your chin up, keep yourself on the right path and become the man you wish to be. Stay safe

Amazing video Jack, A couple of years ago I remember starting over my rust carrer after playing with Horse gang I played with Vincent when had 30-40 views and he won’t admit it but I carried him to one of his best vinalla wipes he will ever have such as fast base progression, defending online raids from horse gang, and dominating. Vincent has been a great friend and idle to me and I still belive he has time to make a change for the greater good. Thank you Vincent for being a great inspiration and thank you Jack for making amazing content!

VincentSMG brings me joy! Great vid

Great video Jack, I personally do think Vincent is entertaining and I don't think he's a bad guy, just surrounded by the wrong people. Keep it up champ 👍

Excellent video, Shep.

Dude all the support for Vincent by other rust youtubers is heartwarming. I feel most people would just tell him to quit because hes an asshole and has no future. But people see his past and realize that he just needs time.

"SMG we're coming in"

why was slim.shyter not given credit for his little clips in the video.

I wouldn't wish this stuff on my worst enemy but Vincent is one of the most toxic and irritating rust streamers of all time.

Vincent is my favorite streamer, I don't know where I would be without him today. He saved my life. SMG WE'RE COMING IN !!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
