Ignore the rumor of me being hospitalized
🕑 Added 2017-06-01 21:18:20 +0000 UTC This morning one of my mods on Discord thought it would be a funny to tell people I was not streaming this morning because I was in the hospital suffering a heart attack. Unfortunately this spread like wildfire instantly and now people are contacting me and it's causing me a lot of stress and frustration. The person has been banned from the Discord server despite saying it was a joke after the damage was done.Please, do not joke around about me being hurt or hospitalized or spread rumors about my health. This is the internet and it causes massive problems when people that care about me think I'm dying. I want to assure you all I am fine today and just had a bad bout of insomnia last night and that is why I couldn't wake up and shoot Morning Coffee today.
Please, stop rumors dead in their tracks and if you see someone spreading them without any evidence linking back to me updating you directly then please tell me about it ASAP. The person in question claimed it was a joke after the damage was already done but a joke ends with #JK, people took this very seriously.
I want to keep making great content for everyone but I need the community and especially my moderators on Discord and Twitch to think before doing stuff like this!

The mod that created the problem for me contacted me and said that it was not his intention and he was just being sarcastic to someone on Discord, but unfortunately his sarcasm was ill timed and didn't include anything indicating it was sarcasm leading it to the rumor. I've lifted the ban and told him he can come back just not as a mod. I need my mods to make good decisions and keep the community calm so everyone can have a good time. Dark Humor has it's place for sure but it needs to be clearly dark humor and not something that is very plausable.
Maybe they were talking a out your PC being dead by accident. RIP barnaculese's PC 2017.
