Dream says he\u2019s happy the situation is over, but is disappointed in Swan. Earlier in February, drama swirled around Minecraft YouTuber Dream, as users made fake accounts pretending to be him and then posted heinous messages, particularly on Discord. This was then linked to John Swan, another YouTuber over 150,000 subscribers. After Dream called Swan out for being behind the profiles and the messages, Swan retorted by claiming Dream was trying to \u201csmear\u201d his name. Now, Swan has admitted and taken \u201cfull responsibility\u201d for his actions, in a lengthy Twitter post on February 27. John Swan admits Dream messages In his post, captioned \u201ctaking accountability\u201d, Swan says \u201cthere is no excuse for what I did and I take full responsibility.\u201d Read More: MrBeast, Dream &#038; more \u2018ratio\u2019 Wendy\u2019s &#8211; \u201cI panicked. I told a lie and thought it would never get brought back up again. I was wrong. \u201c\u2026I should have just said it was me all along, but I didn\u2019t. I dug myself deeper and deeper, and I got caught up with everything. I lied about a massive creator and I\u2019m sorry. There is no excuse.\u201d https:\/\/twitter.com\/JohnSwanYT\/status\/1365593093450330116 Dream responds to John Swan Following his admission, Dream thanked Swan for taking responsibility, plainly replying: \u201cThank you for the apology and confession.\u201d Shortly before Swan\u2019s post, Dream had posted a lengthy Twitter thread confirming that Swan was behind the whole thing. \u201cI\u2019m glad this has come to an end, but severely disappointed in John Swan for continuing to lie about me, despite me giving him multiple opportunities to tell the truth. I would like an apology to me and my community from John Swan, but I\u2019ll probably not get one.\u201d I knew about this new evidence about a week ago, and I offered in private for him to confess to me and apologize and delete his tweets and I wouldn&#8217;t criticize him publicly for it (without telling him about the evidence), and he still denied it fully and continued to tweet lies. \u2014 dream (@dreamwastaken) February 27, 2021 As I was writing this he actually put out an apology, so I take that part back. The rest stands! \u2014 dream (@dreamwastaken) February 27, 2021 He retracted the apology statement, following Swan\u2019s post. Swan says he would have made a video about it instead of a Twitter post, but is unable as he is traveling currently. It\u2019s likely that he will release a video upon returning. His channel currently has 176,000 subscribers \u2013 eyes will be on that count either increasing or decreasing as fans make their minds up about the situation. Meanwhile, Dream\u2019s channel continues to blow up, currently on 18.7 million subscribers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dream responds after John Swan finally admits impersonating him in messages YouTube: Dream \/ John SwanYouTuber John Swan has finally admitted to being the impersonator behind fake Dream accounts on Discord, saying he is ashamed of his actions.
