Not I. I leave my accounts behind now and abandon them without a word when I reach several thousand followers.
It's too time-consuming, and I don't like drama.
I once abandoned 35k followers on Facebook, and 25k on Twitter.

I wasn’t involved in this conversation, but MinnMax made the correct decision today. I’m glad they acted quickly.
I’m completely blindsided. I’ve been having a really hard time processing his situation. We all deserved better. Especially the victim he left behind.

Jacob Geller is no longer a part of MinnMax. He won't be on content moving forward and we won't be publicly airing this week's episode of The MinnMax Show. We're in shock and deeply hurt. Thank you for your patience during this sensitive time.
