Do you know who maxbox is? Do you know who he actually is?
He is a confirmed scammer (impersonator) and LIAR, banned on steamrep and he was lying, saying he got banned for "TRADING with a scammer"! He admitted to being a scammer - https://forums.steamrep.com/threads/76561198099847219-sr-scammer.47360/ his appeal (rejected). This IS his alt (you can know that "NOT Nice Guy!" profile, then go to "alternate accounts", click on "no" with black pic (VAC banned, as are his other alt accounts). Then, from that "no" alt you can go STRAIGHT to his main account (alternate accounts section).
He did rob unsuspecting members of Team Fortress 2 community of their items because "he had a killer friend, a real knockout, and I want to get her a fantastic gift" (quote from his appeal). He IS A LIAR and a SCAMMER!
He is a cheater! He got (in)famous because he was making a lot of cheating videos, advertising lmaobox and cheating with expensive items. Some of his subscribers know that already, but he actively bans anyone who mentions it from his stream, youtube or tf2 server. He also said that he stopped cheating, but later he got a csgo vac ban and made several bad excuses for it. he did not "QUIT" cheating. If he still cheats in csgo (on his alts, one of them was accidentally bound to the same phone as main account did), how do you know he does not continue cheating in Team Fortress 2 on alternate accounts? If he genuinely quit and if he was really sorry for cheating, he would have created a new youtube account without those subscribers who subbed to him to watch him use lmaobox with expensive items. No. He kept those subscribers and gained new ones by creating a lot of drama around himself. His current URL on youtube is still MAXBOXLMAOBOX!
About bans... He is a massive insecure power abuser. I've watched his stream yesterday - most of stream time he spent in ADMIN MENU, banning someone. Shall we look at the common reasons?
-> He could ban you for having a name that he thought a cheater would have/any name that reminded him of his previous actions.
-> If you killed him, he immediately opened your profile and banned you if you have your profile set as private/you had low hour count in team fortress 2/you had no cosmetics/whatever bs made up reason he came up with. This just shows how insecure he is about dying in tf2 and how hypocritical he is for banning everyone for mere suspicions of being a cheater (based on private profile/having no cosmetics). FUN FACT: There actually was a cheater on his server for the whole time, but he stayed undetected by maxboxlmaobox because he did not kill maxboxlmaobox or his girlfriend even once while grinding the rest of the server.
-> On that yesterday stream, he instantly permabanned a medic who pocketed him for 1 round.
why? because medic renamed his Australium Medigun to "maxboxlmaobox #1 fan" (let's not forget that maxboxlmaobox is current youtube url of the subject). When maxboxlmaobox was asked in youtube comments about this, he shadowbanned the commenter instead of replying. maxboxlmaobox is insecure about ANY reminders of the fact that he is a cheater, scammer and a liar. This is also the reason he will silently use all the BAN buttons he has if you say anything that he does not like.
CONCLUSION
maxboxlmaobox should NOT be treated like GOOD TF2bers who actually care about community of Team Fortress 2 and put effort into their TF2 videos. maxboxlmaobox does not deserve to even be called a TF2ber. He is a SCAMMER and a CHEATER. You should not give him $50 donations and become his patron, You should not support a cheater, scammer and insecure child who maxboxlmaobox actually is.
We should support quality TF2ers, not those who gained their popularity by actively harming Team Fortress 2 Community and creating drama around themselves.
