ZexyZek: What Happened to the OG Troll? - The Rise, Fall, and Rise Again (YouTuber Biographies)

If you played Minecraft from around 2012 to 2015, chances are you’ve at least heard of this one KZfaqr.
This person was just a young teen trying to make it big on KZfaq. He had the same dreams as many people when Let's Plays were becoming big on KZfaq. He is a manifestation of the KZfaq dream that once existed before the age of corporations--an inspiration if you ask me. This is the timeless success story of a KZfaqr having to build himself from the ground up.
From Minecraft to Skate 3, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you... ZexyZek.

I used to be friends with one of his friends, Appoes, who did a video with him. Zek even requested they do a series together. Then me and Appoes became enemies, then Appoes kinda quit the whole KZfaq thing. He said no to the series request. Almost became friends with Zek through that guy, but then MWAH betreyal! I think Appoes just quit because his channel wasn't getting barely any support. He'd been doing KZfaq for a very long time and only massed around 3,000 subscribers, even after his collab with Zek. I think he just became unmotivated and quit. But damn, almost man, almost got to meet Zek.
