Mechawreck
Mechawreck was a YouTuber that joined on July 13, 2016. His YouTube content mostly comprised of guides relating to the Engineer class in the popular PC multiplayer First-Person Shooter Team Fortress 2. His channel had peaked to around ~15,000 Subscribers and had 10,000 hours played on Team Fortress 2 on his original Steam account.
Downfall edit
From early-to-mid 2017 to May of 2019, Mechawreck had solicited 12-17 year old users to do a variety of favors for him. These include moaning for him, having private Discord video sessions with him involving sexual actions being done for him on camera, and has discussed his masturbation problems with his victims, which he says that he masturbated for 4 hours straight. He used this story to get sympathy when soliciting his targets, and this was usually done through random Discord private messages or even through Steam messaging in some rare cases. The moans he would get would either be through Audacity microphone recordings, or even done in private Discord calls live with Mecha. Some of these Discord calls were even recorded by the victims, showing Mecha reacting to the moans with is own sexual taunts, showing verbal signs of sexual attractions towards the moans of the underage victims.
When initially confronted by various victims led by a fellow Team Fortress 2 YouTuber named Darty - who was soon responsible for uploading The Dark Side of Mechawreck, the video that first exposed Mecha - He would plead that he was going to therapy and would speak of having documents proving his claims, but would never follow up with the previously mentioned proof. Certain figures in the community came in and attempted to defend Mecha with this therapy claim of his, but once he had finally admitted that he hadn't gone to therapy in months, Darty found no reason to not upload the video that is popularly known as The Dark Side of Mechawreck.
"The Dark Side of Mechawreck" edit
In Darty's now famous video, he presented screenshot evidence of Mechawreck's soliciting towards his underage victims, even including Discord interviews with some anonymous victims and Suepj, the only non-anonymous victim to appear in the original video. This video has currently gathered 65,000+ views on YouTube, and the comments include various Team Fortress 2 community leaders such as SoundSmith, Bearded Expense, Uncle Dane, Swipez, StaryKrow, and Doomsday.exe which all reacted with their own grievances about Mechawreck. Uncle Dane even mentioned his own problems with Mechawreck, constantly pestering him and bothering him with video collaboration requests.
Shortly after Darty's upload, fellow TF2 content creator and Mecha victim; Krimsxn - who had previously stayed anonymous in his provided DM screenshots and Discord interview in The Dark Side of Mechawreck - uploaded his own video called My Experience With Mechawreck, backing up Darty's claims as being true, and recounting his own experience with Mecha.
Aftermath edit
After Darty and Krimsxn's uploads, some other community members on YouTube such as the previously mentioned Doomsday.exe made their own uploads about Mecha, but most have seen these further uploads on YouTube as being drama cash-grabs and have showed to be factually incorrect in some of the claims and comments made in these videos. As of now, there was a "parody" Mechawreck account made on Twitter, Discord and Steam. It was then later shut downed because of a situation that happened a few days ago. The situation can be explained on a different link, which is work in progress.
As of now, his YouTube channel and Twitter has been deleted by Mecha himself, he's abandoned his main Discord for a currently anonymous account, and he's been Community-Banned on Steam and SteamRep.
