On July 7, 2024, Gronkh released a TikTok video where he shows a clip from his stream on June 23, 2024. In this stream, a viewer causes a stir with inappropriate comments.
Such situations are not rare, as streamers often face criticism – whether justified or not is another matter. Throughout his career, Gronkh has had to endure all kinds of accusations and insults. In this particular case, however, he once again demonstrates his composure and calm.
“Get outside, meet a woman.”
What criticism does the streamer receive? While Gronkh is streaming, a viewer appears in the chat who clearly is not a fan of his. “I really don’t understand how adult people invest money in games like Clash of Clans,” writes the viewer.
The viewer does not stop there and continues his attacks: “Get outside, meet a woman.”
Could the viewer have mistaken Gronkh for another streamer? After all, Gronkh is neither known for content related to Clash of Clans, nor should his long-standing public relationship with the streamer xPandorya be unknown.
Gronkh emphasizes that one has nothing to do with the other
What does Gronkh respond to this message? Despite the provocation, Gronkh remains remarkably calm and responds with a mix of humor and tranquility: “That’s coming from the guy who’s sitting here on Twitch at midnight on a Sunday night.”
He goes on to explain that one has nothing to do with the other. Gronkh further states that wives, husbands, and children also play such games, and that has nothing to do with any status regarding how they might appear to the opposite or their own gender. “That’s not an exclusion criterion,” he emphasizes.
The streamer elaborates further on the comment and tells the viewer: “You don’t have to elevate yourself just because you think it might not apply to you.” He admonishes the viewer not to put himself on a pedestal and to avoid looking down on others.
Gronkh concludes the topic by stating: “That is completely unnecessary.”
