From Fortnite Fame to Fan Shame...

A recent Twitch stream by Fortnite pro and content creator Clix has gone viral – but not for his gameplay. The 20-year-old made a bold statement that left many questioning how much he really values his community.
Now, the internet is debating: Was he serious, or just trying to stir the pot?
What actually happened?
During the stream, a long-time supporter dropped a message in chat. The fan had been subbed for over three years, regularly supporting Clix with a basic Tier 1 subscription.They asked a simple question:
“Hey Clix, I heard you only thank people if they donate $100+. Is that true?”
What followed was a response that shocked viewers.
Instead of answering calmly, Clix went off.
“I don’t give a sh*t about your 40 months. Don’t sub to me for 40 months if you expect me to say something. Tier 1 is a waste of my breath.”
He followed it up by insulting the viewer directly in front of thousands watching live.
Clix goes off on someone in his chat for only Tier 1 subscribing to him on Twitch and says its a waste of breathe to thank "don't sub for 40 months if you are expecting me to say something, if you are going to sub at least make it a Tier 2 or Tier 3" pic.twitter.com/HdVr0EF6MJ

Real moment or performance?
Some viewers think Clix was just "clip farming" — trying to stir up drama for views. Others say this is just another example of his growing ego.
Interestingly, NotMarkX is reportedly one of Clix’s moderators, which led to speculation that the exchange may have been staged. Still, the tone and language felt real enough to anger a lot of people.
Final thoughts
Whether Clix meant what he said or was just chasing attention, the moment left a bad taste. For many viewers, it wasn’t about the money -it was about basic respect.
And when that’s missing, especially from someone who’s built their career on community support, people start to question what they’re really supporting.
Moments like this don’t destroy a career, but they change how people see you. And sometimes, that’s harder zu fix than it looks.
What do you think -was this just a bad take, or a clear sign of how far removed some streamers have become from their fans?
