Atrioc drops out of TwitchCon

    by Silvestre: Atrioc

    The fallout from Pokimane's posts has reached a point where Atrioc isn't just responding; he is fully validating the feelings expressed and admitting that his previous actions were wrong, expressing genuine regret for having done them. He states clearly that he never attempted to defend himself or minimize the issue at hand, asserting that any resulting discomfort people feel is 100% valid. The path forward involves using time, money, effort, and actions to demonstrate character, but he notes there is no Konami code for forgiveness, acknowledging that others have the right to withhold it entirely. While he is doing his best to rebuild trust within his immediate circle, he identifies individuals who remain open to trusting him again or giving him a chance, suggesting these people should be allowed to do so provided they stay in their own lane. On the topic of public appearances, Atrioc confirms he withdrew from TwitchCon specifically to avoid making people uncomfortable, stating he aims not to interfere with events while continuing to create content for his audience and friends. He disavows anyone attempting to use the situation to attack others or fuel streamer culture wars, emphasizing that the goal is simply to move forward without dragging everyone into a larger conflict.
