He is still claiming he is not lieing Lol.
Besides, I would rather believe in Totalbiscuit's statement about Yogscast, than Notch's simply because of the fact that time and time again, Totalbiscuit have proved to be honest and noble. Call it bullshit, but that's what I've seen.
That Notch did this, and then AFTER he've seen what Yogscast have said, as well as users, he then goes on to say that he should have talked to them first? What. The. Fuck. Seriously, what is wrong with his brain?! A labrat is an understatement Sickboy!

Just saw a tweet from the feed on his tumblr where he apologizes to them. Go fucking figure. I may be a volatile prick, but I don't have literally MILLIONS of people hanging onto my every word (as well as even more millions of dollars riding on everything I do). Apologizing after the fact is still infinitely worse than simply not saying something stupid in the first place.

agree, people will see this as notch bending over backwards for ego-centric snobs which he looks pretty week in, he should have shown some balls and said F*** you if you don't play by MY rules then i don't care about you at all
as he said in previous tweets he is 100% correct, yogcast don't do as much as they proclaim

I think he did ok when he apologized. He accepted it was a mistake, and it was. I would have done the same.
I'm pretty sure most of you hate Notch for what he's done (lazyness, and other stuff), but I actually like him a lot (though I think this was pretty stupid from him too), and I would have sided with Notch if it wasn't for what TotalBiscuit said.

Apparently Athene was also supporting Yogscast before they made their statement.
Didn't know that before today ^^

Yogcast were innocent from the beginning, Notch just wanted to stir shit, the above tweet is just proving it, he has no grounds to act upon and all his claim are invalid.

If I chose a side to believe, it'd be the Yogcast side. But it doesn't even matter who was right... Notch was an asshole and should not have publicly attacked them. If he had a problem with their participation, he should have dealt with it directly instead of being a fucking drama queen and said it publicly (in what I can only assume was an attempt to get people on his side before they heard the full story).

Ugh, this drama is worse than Kim Kardashian asking for a divorce after like a 2-3 week marriage.
This is why I tried to stay out of gaming businesses and podcasts that are run like a fascist government. From all the threads I've read in the Minecraft section, Notch seem's like an ego maniacal tool who just loves stirring up shit just for more publicity (as if Minecraft didn't give him enough).
The sad part is, he took a big throne when Minecraft was first started. Please, the average (or slightly above average) coder could code Minecraft after a few weeks, it's not that impressive of a game. I fail to see how Notch got so big when he really did so little. Now I'll probably get lots of butthurt comments referring to this post but fuck off I have my opinion and I'm entitled to it. Notch seems like a complete dick and has virtual money with "EGO" written in big red letters on it, being shoved up his ass making him pick fights with groups like Yogscast. When he really only made a game that a programmer from Runescape could easily develop. The graphics were terrible to begin with too, which is why I failed to see the hype in minecraft, if I wanted to play Doom 3 building version I would of just ported Doom 3 stuff into GMod and did it there, it's the same damn thing except GMod would have 50x more shit to fuck around with.
/rant.

Regardless of what really happened, Notch seriously needs to learn to shut his fucking mouth. Like with the lawsuit shit, he just needs to stop publicly saying this crap. All it does is cause unnecessary problems and make him look like a complete asshole (which he definitely is). He still hasn't learned that, because of his popularity, what he says has a big impact. It has come back to bite him in the ass over and over, but he still does it.
Albert Einstein once said that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results. Notch is the rat in the lab that keeps pushing the red button and getting electrocuted, instead of trying the green one and getting fed.

Well put.
I like Notch, I'm a fanboy, but damn son he needs to learn to stop making things worse. If he had been quiet and let the problems speak for themselves it would've been a lot better.

Because none of you have ever over-reacted in anger.
Not in front of a half a million people who hang on to every single word I say, and what I say could very well affect another person(s) views, sales, and/or how people see them.

You don't get the luxury of "everybody does it" when you're as exposed, rich, and popular as Notch. With great power comes blah blah. What we have all done in anger cannot be compared to what someone in his position of influence does. Trying to make such a comparison is just ignorant.
