Dr DisRespect is shocked by the lack of support from YouTube Gaming despite his massive popularity

Herschel Guy 'Dr DisRespect' recently tweeted about how he hasn't been receiving any support from the platform he exclusively streams on.

The 'Two-Time' has been streaming on the red platform for almost two years now, having switched from the platform's direct rival, Twitch, for unknown reasons. He is one of the most popular gaming entities on the channel. However, he seemed baffled by the lack of support from YouTube Gaming in his latest tweet.

The YouTube star finally buried the hatchet with the purple platform and resolved their issues. He won't go back to Twitch, which means YouTube is going to pull in numbers, but as per the streamer, YouTube doesn't seem too excited by it.

@DrDisrespect @YouTubeGaming You tweeting about them is what they have framed in their offices over at headquarters. Someone is getting promoted. Someone is getting fired.

@DrDisrespect @YouTubeGaming That's two platforms now that have completely underestimated @DrDisrespect & yet the numbers still show that not only is he on top, but he continues to dominate in this space.

Imagine what would be possible if a platform embraced this & innovated WITH him. Endless possibilities.

@DrDisrespect @YouTubeGaming Now let me ask you a question Doc. Do you think they will make changes as this year goes on and the next one comes in? Especially now that you, @timthetatman and @DrLupo are crushing the numbers. I feel like they are going to deliver big but slow footing it

@DrDisrespect @YouTubeGaming Given how little effort they put into live gaming content on their platform I'd be surprised if they even knew they had that kinda content on their platform.

They still trying to lure in more cat videos.
