In the fallout from FaZe Swagg and NICKMERCS discussing legal action against content creators, like EightThoughts, who make negative videos about them, more details have begun to emerge about Drift0r\u2019s experience. After NICKMERCS defended Swagg from TikTok cheat accusations and was attacked on social media for getting EightThoughts\u2019 YouTube channel taken down, Drift0r got involved as well. The popular YouTuber shared proof used in an earlier legal dispute against EightThoughts and one of his Discord mods, Blu. The situation is a very complicated one and certain claims have since been publicly disputed by EightThoughts on Twitter. Now, though, Blu is directly contradicting a specific denial. According to Drama Alert\u2019s KEEMSTAR, the Discord mod claims that he and the YouTuber \u201chad a deal\u201d in which he would receive all stream donations during a stream in which he brought a gun to Drift0r\u2019s home. Eight Thoughts \u2018discord mod \u201cBlu\u201d who showed up to Drift0r\u2019s house with a gun. Just said in interview 8Thoughts &#038; him had a deal. 8thoughts would stream Blu going to Drift0r house on twitch &#038; Blu would keep stream donations. 8Thoughts channels have been banned on YouTube. \u2014 KEEM \ud83c\udf7f (@KEEMSTAR) April 8, 2021 As Drift0r has previously explained, his litigation against EightThoughts and Blu led to the Discord mod being arrested, but little consequence for the YouTuber allegedly puppeteering his mod\u2019s behavior. While Drift0r alleges that the armed visit to his home was orchestrated by EightThoughts, the accused publicly claimed that he \u201ctold Blu, \u2018don\u2019t\u2019.\u201d Read more: Drift0r &#038; NICKMERCS vs EightThoughts drama &#8211; KEEMSTAR\u2019s latest report is therefore a direct contradiction of that statement. For many, it is difficult to logically equate wanting someone to do something and offering them the opportunity to \u201ckeep stream donations\u201d if they did do that thing. This appears to be the general reaction, as many have pointed out inconsistencies in EightThoughts\u2019 responses. Drift0r, too, took notice of this contradiction \u2014 as evidenced in his reply to KEEMSTAR\u2019s tweet. As seen in Drift0r\u2019s response, he\u2019s not sure that \u201cthe police have even heard about this yet.\u201d That lack of confession would explain why Blu was arrested while EightThoughts was not. Still, until KEEMSTAR\u2019s interview is released or made available to authorities, this remains unverified. When KEEMSTAR\u2019s interview surfaces, and especially if Blu has proof of the alleged \u201cdeal,\u201d then it is possible that this situation returns to court. However, it should be re-emphasized that nothing is proven at the moment. On the accused side, EightThoughts appears to remain steadfast in his denials based on numerous Twitter replies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EightThoughts mod reportedly admits to being paid to bring gun to Drift0r\u2019s home Twitter, @SweatyTesties \/ Twitter, @Drift0rIn a direct contradiction of EightThoughts\u2019 statements, his Discord mod, Blu, has reportedly confessed that there was a deal in place to pay him for going to Drift0r\u2019s home with a gun.
