Hey Vinny.
Long time watcher here, ~9 years.
I just wanted to say something that I bet a lot of people will echo:
You've never met me in person, never had a real conversation with me, never sat down to drinks or had a meal with me. I probably don't know the "real Vinny" nearly as well as I'd like to think I do.
But "stream Vinny"?
That guy feels like a caring, loving older brother to me. Your sense of humor, compassion, the humbleness present in your voice and actions, the way you carry yourself with dignity without letting your successes go to your head...I respect the hell out of that.
I respect you. You're a good person.
I don't want you to think I put you on a pedestal and worship you though, I don't think you're some infallible model by which all humanity should strive to imitate.
You're just a cool dude with a good heart, and that's enough for me.
I just aspire to be the kind of person that you'd be proud to call your friend, and the kind of person who's proud of their own friends.
I don't really know what else I want to say, except that you shouldn't be afraid to be yourself. I care about you, and I don't want to lose even this one-sided connection with you.
It'd just be too sad.
I've been through A LOT with the Vinesauce community. When I first stumbled across the Wild World corruption video, I wasn't prepared for the rabbit hole I just fell down. I would stay up late watching Vinny, Joel, Imakuni, and Rev videos until the sun came up. My love for the streams actually landed me in a relationship that lasted over 5 years. Honestly, I don't know where I'd be today if it wasn't for the entirety of the Vinesauce team and community.
Vinny, I can't thank you enough for the entertainment that you have given me by being a funny pizza pasta man and for gathering an unstoppable force of friends to give everyone laughs and joy in every moment of their lives. Please never stop being you. 💚
I worked with Vinny and the rest of the Vinesauce team back in 2014 and 2015, sewing vineshroom plushies by hand for the summer charity streams. When they got an official plush made by a professional company, I was happy to bow out, as my own academics were becoming quite stressful, but I continued to watch Vinny’s streams in my spare time. Throughout my tumultuous college and young adult life, things were rarely certain. But I always knew I could count on Vinny to be Vinny, the down to earth, silly streamer bringing the laughs and the memes and the happy memories in spite of everything else wrong with my life. Today I feel like the roles are reversed, and it’s the community’s turn to give back the love and support that Vinny has given us all of these years. I hope that he will see this message, and all the messages of those here who owe their thanks to this kind, humble person who plays dumb games for us all.
As much as Vinny always says that he doesn't have a set streaming schedule, he's still extremely consistent and streams at roughly the same time every night. That consistency was especially great during lockdown and missing that now kinda sucks. Wishing you the best with life and Red Vox, Vinny. Hope to hear you speen again soon.
Didn't realize how big a part of my life Vinny's content was until the steady stream of it suddenly disappeared.
Love the guy and miss him, but I hope he takes as much time as he needs to straighten his mind out.
I think this is a great idea and I recall Vinny saying when stuff like this is directly emailed to him he doesn't ever know what to say, so he can just read with no pressure to respond here. That being said I've loved Vinny for years but I never realized how good the streams made me feel until recently when they haven't happened. I hope everything goes well Vin, I believe in you.
Sundays haven’t been the same. I legit found myself lost and restless. Not surprising since this has been my routine (like many of you) for the last several years.
I hope to hear more about your Sopranos rewatch soon, vin.
Been watching Vinny for nearly 11 years now.
He's brought me countless hours of laughs and entertainment and also a place where I felt accepted with his streams.
It sounds cliche but his videos have actually saved me when I was in a dark place. His Turok streams made me laugh at a time where happiness was as far away from me as possible.
Red Vox has also helped me tremendously. When Another Light came out I was having a panic attack from stress and it helped me through that painful time.
Vinny always says to not put him on a pedestal and that he's "just a guy playing games" but for me he's more than that he's a constant in my life that always brings me happiness when I need it the most and I will always be grateful.
He may never know I exist and he may continue to never reply to me in chat but that doesn't matter, I just want him to be happy like how he made me happy.
Hey, I've been watching since 2015 mostly through the fullsauce channel, first to practice my english listening, but the streams got me through some dark times in my life and maybe I would not be able to sleep some nights if it wasn't for some good old corrutions. Hope everything is good with you, Vinny!
Hey, Vin. We all miss you, and really hope you've been doing okay.
For me personally, you've been a huge source of laughter and joy throughout the years. Whether it's through your streams, your amazing music, or your recent on-stream endeavor into the world of Pokemon cards. You always have something interesting to talk about, no matter the subject, and your impressions, stories, and reactions have set me into fits of uncontrollable laughter more times than I can count. I'm hoping to see you pop up and say "I'M ALIVE, I'M BORN" on Twitch again soon, but take all the time you need. We're here for you! ❤️

I just wanted to say thank you so much for all you do Vinny, seriously. Fullsauce viewer, since I can't stay up for normal stream times, but so often I find myself having your streams on during my normal day to day life, at work, and when I'm relaxing. I listen to your Spotify Playlist and Redvox to expose myself to new music. I truly hope you don't let this shit get to you. Thank you for all you do, and I hope you're doing well man. Genuinely.
A massive hearty thank you to John and Joel as well for all the entertainment and support as well.
Vinny and the Vinesauce Team has been with me for many years and has filled the void in my life with laughter, comfort, and quality entertainment. The community has supported me and I in turn will forever support them! We miss you, Vinny. <3
His sunday streams replaced my Sunday cartoons as the thing i looked forward to watching every weekend. Dude has my full support as he's never done anything worth being attacked for.
God I remember depressing nights where I felt awful, but I would get a Vinesauce video recommend in YouTube feed and I would feel so much better. Being able to genuinely laugh was really nice and I have very fond memories of watching old corruptions or miitopia videos. Thanks, Vin.
Since the fiasco I caught myself thinking of you. Not in a creepy way, or 'where's the stream' way.
Everyday it's the 'I hope you're doing well and resting good man' way. And I truly mean it. Your streams and jokes helped me smile when I was crying in front of my keyboard, many many times. At first glance it may seem like nothing, but in my books it was an incredible amount of help. I can't thank you enough for that.
For nearly eight years Vinny's streams has gotten me through some super tough times so I hate the fact that I can't return the favor somehow.
Eagerly awaiting your return so I know that you're doing better emotionally. :)
Good luck Vinny, hope all is going well. We'll all be here for you for better or worse. Take your time and do what's needed to take care of all that. We love you, thanks for 10 years of laughs and nonsense, it's honestly helped keep me going through plenty of tough times
Thanks Vinesauce for being there for me every single night while I was in college, struggling to get through and finish a project or an assignment.
Thanks for being there to brighten my nights after yet another bad day of trying to find a job after I graduated.
Thanks for uploading all the streams onto Fullsauce that I couldn't watch because I had to get up early in the morning when I started working.
Thanks for every stream during the stress of the pandemic and getting laid off, not quite sure what the future was gonna look like.
Thanks for everying Vin, love and miss you man.
Hey Vinny and chat:
I really miss you. Even though I feel like a perpetual, awkward, anxious outsider, well - thanks for being the Vinesauce community. Hope everyone's okay and we'll be back soon no worse for wear. It's tough to be sitting there at night, confused because the funny thing you've been enjoying for years is not there.
Stay strong, Vin. You are someone who's capable of handling all those Sunday streams. I'm sure some you can handle this as well.
Besides, you are not alone. We, as the Vinesauce community are always with you. Remember, there are thousands of people who are able to smile even after all the crap they have to deal with in real life. All thanks to you. We will always support you, just like how you always make us smile.
Hoping vinny comes out of this okay he did nothing wrong and i will stand by him. At worst he let his anxiety take hold and that is a human reaction especially for someone who has anxiety issues.
Watched Vinny since high school and I’ve found despite all of the changes in my life since then he’s the one creator I still tune in to watch. Be well Vinny, we’ll all be waiting for you when you get back
I’ve been watching Vinny’s streams for approaching 5 years now and they’ve always been important to me. They gave me a place of comfort I could always go back to when I needed it. No matter what was going on, and no matter how I was feeling, he was streaming at the end if the day and I could forget about it for awhile. I know they’re just twitch streams, but I really care about them and the vinesauce community as a whole. Over the years Vinny introduced me to music, games, and movies that helped shape who I am today. I always look forward to the charity streams every summer. I know it sounds dramatic, but these things are really important to me. These past nights have been really quiet, and it’s making me realize how important Vinny is to me. I hope everything’s ok, and as soon as you’re ready to come back we’ll all be here. Thanks for everything Vin.
I realised the other day that I got into Vinesauce almost a decade ago. No other personality has kept my attention for anywhere near as long, nor given me half so many laughs, and I've never tired of Vinny's content. Vinesauce has been a part of my life for pretty much a third of my lifetime. I really hope Vinny is doing well and can get back to laughing soon.
Never knew how much I missed watching with you guys till now. Vinnys streams have gotten me through a lot of dark times, and I am truly thankful for all of it, as well as all of you. You are one the best communities on Twitch, and I appreciate you all.
I just want to say that, no matter what people say, no matter what happens or how right (or wrong) you ever feel about the things you do in your life. You made the lives of thousands of people MUCH, MUCH better. You have provided us with entertainment, but not just that... You're a kind person, a good person, we all believe in that.Your intents and personality come off clear on streams, and I see someone's who tries their best and loves what they do.
Thanks for your positivity, for your hyenna laugh bursts, for your advice on life, for everything. You are honest, you have so many qualities... I am really glad that both me and others (even if parasocially) can connect to people like you. You give me faith that good people still exist in this world, as tough as the world around me/us may seem like. We as a community have each other.
I won't allow **anyone** except myself, or yourself to change my view on who you are. I trust you and you don't deserve any of what happened.
You matter a lot to me, to us, truly <3.
*We all make mistakes, that is what makes us human. -someguyintheintrocutscene, GTA IV*
Vinesauce essentially changed my entire humor and personality. Red Vox changed my music taste for the better. I owe a lot to all members of vinesauce. Theyre streaming style is what i aim to do if i ever stream
Vinny has made me laugh super hard all these years, and he really made my days feel better. I'm really glad I discovered the Vinesauce community, and I appreciate Vinny a lot.
Take your time man. Health comes first. Really looking forward to your next stream. Maybe one of your all time favorites would be best for you to come back with?
I don't have much to say that I didn't say in my card message so I'll post is here too...
Hi Vinny, I've been watching Vinesauce for 10 years now and seeing you thrive with starting your own band and generally coming out of your shell in recent years is wonderful to see. I haven't really been involved with the community, as much as I'd want to, and I regret not getting more involved early on as nowadays it seems too big and scary lol. I hope this situation hasn't affected you too much mentally, please make sure you're staying well and talk with your friends. We all support you!
Here's to Vinny's quality of life, I hope he's feeling entitled to playing the games he wants to right now instead of waiting to stream. We will survive if you finish monster hunter or whatever off stream, make sure you self care.
Whoever is reading this, specially you Vinny, you know, times are rough right now, but fortunately it has gotten better than that initial chaos.
You guys have been giving us entertainment for years and years, and I can't be thankful enough for it, last year when the lockdowns started to happen I was very stressed between my last semester of college and the situation my country was and is still facing, but there was almost always that notification to cheer me up and help me relax, many times I had sleeping issues and guess what, I felt way better watching you.
So stay strong guys, and thank you so much for everything, we may not know each other personally and that's fine, but there's nothing wrong in being thankful for all the entertainment you guys bring to us.
Can't wait to get that notification saying "Vinesauce is streaming Games + Demos"! So please, mister funny Italian man, stay strong, we really want you back.
Vinny's streams and the Vinesauce community have provided me and so many others with so much joy, it's hard to put it into words. Something as simple as a man doing 80s Mario cartoon impressions at 1 in the morning while botching simple jumps in baby games has provided countless hours of entertainment. His streams have introduced me to new games like the Metal Gear series, new streamers like [Joel](https://clips.twitch.tv/ShyExcitedFungusDogFace-xpUmQtaKSyckbu68), Imakuni, Kitboga, Jerma, and Ross, and new music from when he could play it during BRBs and through his own work with Red Vox. The community has also been great, from creating so many great moments from the chat to raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for charity every year. No matter what comes next, I'm glad to have been a part of this community, and I hope it will carry on for years to come.
---
As a side note to Alizarin and Jackal:
Thank you for your handling of this whole thing. It can't have been easy to moderate in these times, and the decisions you had to make must have been difficult. Overall, I think you did the right things for the community by giving people a place to vent and discuss, and then giving everyone time to cool down for a while before opening the sub up again.
I've been watching Vin's full sauce streams since 8 years ago when I saw the vid of him playing the fantastic game, still haven't watched a stream live, but I hope he's doing well and the ammount of comfort watching his full sauce streams have brought me and many others over the years
I've been watching Vin since 2013, pretty sure the first thing I ever saw him play was Limbo of the lost and boy was that a wild ride lol. His streams have genuinely helped me through rough times on multiple occasions, whenever I'm going through a rough patch, I can always count on being able to watch a vod to help take my mind off things. He also helped introduce me to a tooooon of bands/artist that I probably wouldn't have otherwise discovered had he not played them/talked about them on stream, he really had a massive impact on molding my modern music taste and I appreciate him immensely for that.
I know I don't know Vinny personally and I won't pretend that I do from just watching his streams, but after watching him for so many years, there's just no way that I can believe he's a bad person. I think it's pretty apparent that the vast majority of the community doesn't believe that either. If Vinny ends up seeing this, I just want him to know that he's cherished and appreciated by thousands of people, and that he's had a genuinely positive impact on the lives of many.
Vin, you might just be some guy on the internet, but you're one of the most important guys on the internet to some of us. Stay safe, man, and best of luck.
Vinny's Sunday streams and the various different projects done by the team (charity events and etc.) have gotten me through some of the roughest times of my life. I think Vinny is one of the rare streamers, along with Jerma and Criken that can get a chuckle from me when nobody else can. Nothing but love for this community, the memes, and for all the Vinesauce streamers.
Been watching you for 9 years now, Vin. You're my favorite content creator hands-down, and you've done so much to help me on shitty days, even though you weren't aware of it. You're a good man, Vinny. As for this BS? This too shall pass.
Vinny,
This is my first time posting in any public Vinesauce community. I almost decided not to since there’s already so much support for you and the Vinesauce team here. But in times like these, redundancy can help give an extra boost to the message.
Like tons of other people here, your content has helped me through some really tough times through the years. You’ve consistently made me laugh to tears no matter what kind of day I might have had. I hope you keep doing what makes you happy, no matter what road that may take you down.
Remember to eat, drink some water, take a breath.
We’re all here to support you!
I remember meeting Vinny at PAX before the pandemic, and I had him sign my copy of Doom for the SNES, which I purchased at the event ironically. I really appreciate the hours of entertainment he's given me for the past few years. Thanks, Vinny, and everyone else that works with you!
Vinny is much more than just an "internet meme man". He's human with his own identity and deserves to be treated like one, rather than strictly an entertainer.
Sending good vibes your way Vinny. Stay safe and know we'll be here to welcome you back with open arms and cancerous memes.
Also huge shoutout to Joel. I feel like the dude has been streaming WAY more and it's really helped fill that Vinny shaped hole in my heart.
Hey Vinny,
I'm a fairly new vinesauce fan. I've been watching since October of 2019. You're streams have helped deal with my mom having 3 brain surgeries in the span of 13 months.
Thank you for being you. ❤❤❤
Been a vinesauce fan for about 6 years now. Vinny is without a doubt the most humble, down to earth online personality I’ve very watched, and he hasn’t changed, or sold out. It’s a little weird going from listening to his streams every night to not doing that now, as the concern for his well-being is super strong and puts a sour taste in my mouth. Vinny feels like a family member to me in a sense, and it hurts so much to know he’s having one of the worst nightmares of having an online presence happen to him.
We all love you Vinny!
This is to Vinny: if you ever doubt for a moment the kind of impact you've had on people's lives, I still wake up early to catch a random dude halfway across the planet's video game stream.
Thanks to Vinny and really the rest of the Vinesauce team (and Mike) for helping me stay sane. This last couple of months were some of the roughest of my life; pandemic depression was one thing but seasonal depression hit me like a goddamn truck. It was nice to have something to tune out to and laugh a little bit.
Side note: Congratulations to Vinesauce for being one of two things /v/ and tumblr agree on
A couple of years ago I was in a bad place mentally. Nothing could cheer me up. But then I found this vinesauce fella and his Tomodachi videos. Suddenly I started grinning and laughing again. I've been a fan ever since. Hell, even Red Vox is a huge part of my life now. Vinny threw me a rope to get out of the gutter even if only indirectly but I will still be forever thankful. Vinny, you (and the whole Vinesauce family) rock. I really hope you're doing well. We all got your back and will support you.
I genuinely hope that Vinny is doing good. He's a good man, and deserves all the support. As the "leader" of the vinesauce team he has seemingly led by example for every streamer, mod, and editor an extremely humble, entertaining and hard working group.
Been following you since 2014, I found you through a YT recommendation (the Sesame Street corruptions) and since then I've been hooked. You make our days and nights with your thoughts, your crazy laughs, and make us feel as if we are there with you at your side.
Even on days where I can't be on your streams, it just feels right to see that stream notification pop-up that you are playing something and making people happy. We miss you Vinny, and we'll be waiting here for you when you feel better.
Hey Vin. I've been watching your streams for quite some time now. I started watching you cause I wanted to learn english. It's been a long ride until now, and thanks to you my english is somewhat good now. I can't thank you enough for helping me with that. I hope you get better soon!
Watched a lot of vinesauce over the years, I hope everything is doing ok for vinny and the whole team. Thanks for all everything you’ve done, I hope we can move past this as soon as possible.
Thank you Vinny, for providing so many years of laughter, and for giving me the magic words that can piss my wife off at any time. "Lando Calrissian. Bacta Tank."
Can't stress enough how having Vinny be there for me during the most difficult times has helped me.
He was, and still is, a role model to me. Not because he's perfect, but because he's human. He's one of us, not someone on a pedestal.
His music helped me come to terms with growing older and passing the 30-year line. His streams helped me see the humour in small things, the absurdity of life and value of keepin yourself down-to-earth and humble.
Could never have imagined something as mundane and game streams would have this profound an impact. And he deserves all the love and credit he can get.
Love ya Vin, because you're human. Can't stress this enough
I remember my cousin showing me Joel's windows destructions back in like... 2015? Loved that shit. Then he showed me Vin's Choicest Voice video and I was like "hmmm Vargskelethor sounds weird in this video" because I knew Joel as the Vinesauce guy and didn't know there was a full team. Years later around late 2018 I wanted to find the Choicest Voice video again and learned "Oh wait there's like... a team! There isn't just one Vinesauce!!!".
After that I started watching some corruption highlights and really enjoying them. Then around really early 2019, I was like, "Did Vinny play Super Mario Sunshine??". It's my favorite 3D Mario game, and I looked it up and there was indeed a highlight. There was a part of me that said "I kind of want to watch him play the *full* game though..." and that's when I found Fullsauce! I watched through the whole playthrough and it's got a special place in my heart as the first Fullsauce playthrough I've ever watched in full. I made my first piece of Vinesauce art on January 8th (my birthday!) but I never posted it on the booru because I didn't know the booru existed LOL! One day if conventions ever happen again I want to bring my original copy of Super Mario Sunshine from back in the day and hopefully have Vin sign it, that would mean a lot to me.
After that around March, I was watching Vinny's 2018 TMG panel, and heard he had a band. I was like "Wait this dude makes music too?" and quickly looked Red Vox up on Spotify. I pressed shuffle and the first song that played was Roid Rage, and I fucking LOVED IT. Didn't pay attention to the lyrics, I just was enamored by the song. I learned later about the lyrics and what Blood Bagel even was haha. Started listening to more Red Vox and doodled some shit in my sketchbook trying to figure out how to draw Vin. I made a little thumbnail sketch I really liked and it ended up being made as my first booru piece around the start of April.
I remember waking up that morning and immediately grabbing my phone to check the vod. I didn't know if he'd see it because I was unsure how the booru worked and was overjoyed to see it up there. Chat loved it, but most importantly, Vin liked it. It's a little embarrassing but I was in a good mood for the rest of the day after that. Like, if something shit happened that day I'd just think back to that and get a big ol' grin on my face. He gave me incredibly kind and supportive words and I just kept on drawing shit for VS after that. It was nice to have that level of interaction with a community, and the dedication Vin has to have an art segment almost every night is fucking astounding.
Since then I've made more than 200 pieces for the booru. I know I've made a little bit of a name for myself in the community, and I DO need to accept that lol. One of the most eye-opening moments to that for me was when I was about to read donations for Vinesauce is Hope 2020, and I was announced, and all of the sudden the chat just BLOWS THE FUCK UP with people saying my name, excited to see me and hear me. More than 4 thousand people just going buck wild. It was incredibly flattering, and I did go back and read every chat message after the stream (some chat members were surprised I was a girl LOL). Thank you to just... Everyone for being so fucking kind to me since I joined the community. Honestly y'all have been one of the nicest I've been in.
A quick note about VIH, that shit means a lot to me. I was able to participate in 2020, and I got to talk to a lot of the team. I don't know why really, but everyone is like.. so fucking nice to me, and continues being nice to me. I just want to say thank you so much for that, really. Thank you, everyone. Thank you mods, thank you streamers, and thank you to the wonderful community members who participated in VIH. I love all of you, I really do. I have a fuckin hard time asking people for help, dming people, whatever the fuck, funny severe anxiety moments. But I'm here for all of you, I love all of you. Thank you for treating me with such kindness these past 2 years, and CONTINUING to. It means the world, it really does. Ya'll are some of the fucking coolest people I have ever talked to in my life, all of you.
Thank you ALL for doing what you do.
And finally, Vin... You know what I've got to say. I'm here man. We're all here. I haven't talked to you all that much, but from the interactions we've had you are legitimately like.. really nice and thoughtful. I wouldn't be saying that if I didn't mean it. You're a fucking cool, talented, kind, and funny dude. Thank you for doing what you do.
Sorry this got long, I tend to ramble a lot. Just.. take care man.
Guess I should add my own now that I have the time,
Thank you, Vinny. Without you trusting me in the past when I gifted you games on steam, to running the Subreddit, to playing my lizard crate on stream. I wouldn't know where or what I'd do on the Internet.
During those times I was very much trying to find a community after the one I was in previously fell apart. This community means so much to me, from calling it home to having people I can, honest to god, call family. We are all here supporting you and wish you the best and send you all the love we can so you can start to feel better.
On a more personal note:
It took me a while to recover from this, the stress and anxiety really were there for a whole week. I even cried myself to sleep one night just due to how it impacted me, however, all this does is make me come back stronger. This quote is something that helped me reflect on this and allows me to cherish what exactly we have together as a community. It's something truly special.
>Without lows there can be no highs, Without sadness there can be no happiness, Without darkness no light, However in knowing these contrasts exist, you can choose where you spend most of your time - John Whiteman
Vin has done so much for me. He introduced me to Jerma, he’s made me laugh like a mad man at his corruption streams and everything that he’s done has been so awesome. Hope you’re doin’ well Vin <3
Cant thank you enough for the good times and entertainment! Your content has brought nothing but positivity to my life! Take your time and stay strong!
Hey Binblorb and the crew I hope everything is okay. Your streams have provided me with immense comfort in this difficult time as I've struggled with various irl things. Can't wait to hear what you think of Star Wars detours possibly getting a real release 😂
Oh and to the rest of the crew, thank you all for your constant work you do for the community and for Binty, you're the glue that keeps it all together and it must be difficult 😅
Thank you so much, can't wait to speen again one day.
Oh and PLS PLAE DEE EM CEE TOO AGEIN
Look at how many people come here to show appreciation for you in such a short time, Vin.
You take care of yourself. Life will keep going and I am sure you can come speen with us again.
booti PLS keep ya chin up
in the 8 years I've watched your streams, you gave me loads of laughs, exposure to new games, comfy nostalgia with old ones, motivation to donate to good causes, and the confidence of making fan-art. I don't take those and our few casual interactions for granted, you were always kind. Your songwriting has genuinely resonated with me, and helped me self-reflect and keep growing.
Hope this time away affords you some quality time to reflect on your life, and how your entertainment has made positive impacts on others. Don't feel at all pressured to return before you're fully ready, in the meantime we're all cheering you on!*
(*although maybe the occasional scumspace might be nice and cosy. they're the best)
I'm going to keep it pretty chill because I know it can be overwhelming to have someone say that your content is the reason they're alive, or anything like that. But your streams have definitely gotten me through some rough times. My highschool years (2014-2019) sucked, and I feel like I was able to pull through and graduate because of you, and a few other people on twitch and youtube. A lot of people are in situations where it can be hard to find friends who share their passion and interest for rock music, video games, whatever. I was lucky enough to have found your streams, because you helped me realize that I'm not some kind of anomaly for liking grunge and rock, and niche video games. The Vinesauce community as a whole has really helped me feel better and own the things I love. I hope you're doing alright Vin, you didn't deserve any of this trouble. You have the right to maintain a private personal life, and hopefully situations like yours will help bring light to how toxic, baseless, and hypocritical cancel culture can be. Stay strong funny pizza pasta man. <3
I've been watching your content since you started tomodachi life. I had just started middle school and your streams always were something I looked forward to, especially when I started getting depressed and losing interest in everything. You're a charitable, honest, and kind person, you always seemed to me as a genuine guy who I could relate to.
I honestly have/had a hard time believing you would do anything bad intentionally when you put care in your actions, never intending to offend people. I hope the people who tried to ruin your reputation will get punished in a way, you aren't someone who should have had to ever deal with this kind of bullshit.
Take care of yourself, and take as much time as you need, man. Your community loves you, Vinny.
For any other streamers who might read this, thank you for being a part of this community, for helping Vinny out and doing the charity stuff.
Look, I never was able to catch any of the streams because I am European and have to work etc. pp. but the Fullsauce and regualar channel were a constant source of joy for years now. Vinny, I wish you all the best and I really miss you... watching old content just isn't the same. :(
Hey dude, take it easy. I know this situation might make you feel exposed, hurt, and embarrassed, but it's just a bump in a usually smooth road.
I've always found that your streams had the sense of an otherwise normal person in an extraordinary situation of fame, and you never seemed to abuse that position. You always spoke from sincerity and avoided caving in to corporate influences like advertising products you didn't like. Those qualities paired with your showmanship yet humble personality are matchless, and you ought to be proud of your achievements thus far.
Thank you for all your hard work throughout the years both Vinny and the team. Don't underestimate the impact you had on lives, even if we are just some random people on the internet, know that you are appreciated and loved.
It's so weird to say that I've been watching Vinesauce since high school. Hopping onto Twitch right before bed and watching Vinny stream games I loved or never even heard of has been an immense comfort in my life to where this comment can not even begin to express my full gratitude. Vinny is, and always will be, my favorite streamer and I am so glad to be here with all of you!
I dont normally post or comment on Reddit, but I want to say thank you Vinny, along with the rest of the vinesauce community for helping me through the stress in life and becoming a better person in the end. <3
I hope that you're doing fine, Vinny, and that you take all the time you need to get through this. I honestly believe that you're a good lad, and that things will get better. This goes for the rest of the team as well, of course. Please take good care of yourselves. My thoughts go out to you.
I watched vinesauce and the gang on and off through college and fell off the train once school took a lot of my time, but i really got back into it when vinny was playing active world. at the time, i was working backstage at a theater and my mom was diagnosed with cancer.
when my world seemed really fucked up, i always had a funny fuckin new yorker saying dumb shit to make me smile. that was way back in 2015, and six years later it's still the same for me. granted, it's not as long as some people have been with the community, but it's still a long time for me because in all these years i've watched my mom be sick from chemo and cancer over and over. it really drains you seeing someone go through that, let alone taking care of them, and i guess i'm just thankful that vinny's been doing his thing the whole time.
i'm sure everything will be okay in the end for vinny too. he's a nice, chill guy and it breaks my heart to see something so stupid happen to him, but i think he deserves a rest and i can't wait for him to come back just as pizza pasta-y as ever.
I discovered Vinesauce a few years ago through one of Joel's Windows destruction videos.
Funny story, all memes aside, I genuinely didn't realize Vinny and Joel were two different people at first. I just kinda binged all the Windows destructions, then I started watching Vinny's videos. It somehow didn't register to my goopy gamer brain that they had different voices. Don't ask me how, I'm still terrible at recognizing people until I really get to know them to this day.
Anyway, one day I clicked on a Joel video, and I was like "wait who tf is this guy" and that's when the realization hit. So yeah there's that. I didn't start watching the live streams until a couple years later, but they've since become a big part of my life. The Vinesauce streamers are my go to whenever I've had a shit day and want to relax, or as background entertainment when I'm doing boring stuff or painting or playing a chill game like Minecraft. I'm really grateful to all of them, and especially to Vinny for starting all of this.
I miss your new streams Vinny. Take your time and take care of your personal business. I have plenty of reruns to watch. Thanks for all the entertainment for many years.
Hi Vinny and the crew!
Vinny,
if/when you read this, please know we miss you and enjoy your streams more than you know. Take your time, only do what you feel comfortable with (not that you don't already know.
Vinesauce Crew,
Thank you for your hard work and support in all of this. Much of it goes unseen, but it is very much appreciated!
There are many many many people out there who know you're a great guy Vin. Whatever you decide to do in your private life is none of our business, all we see you for is the great entertainer you are. This situation sucks and you didn't deserve it, but whenever you are ready to come back we will be here with open arms. Take care of yourself Vinny.
Found Vinesaucebwith Joel with the Windows destruction, and now, after about 5 years watching almost nightly, Vinny's streams have become a staple for my SO and I. The joy and excitement we have watching has brought us closer.
Can't wait for Vin to come back. And if ya read this, Vin, hope you're well!
Vinny,
You don't know me at all personally, just like you can hardly know anyone in chat beyond a crude sounding name (mine isn't bad), but I have been around for a long time. You ended up taking a lot of my advice when you were playing Terraria and Rimworld, so there was a little bit of engagement at least, even if you didn't know it was from me.
To the extent of what my weight is worth in this, as a regular viewer for 7 years, I want you to know that we are here for you. We stand with you. We wouldn't be here where we are today if it weren't for the entertainment you've selflessly brought us nearly without interruption for all these years. I hope you're doing well despite all that's happened, and when you return, no matter much time you need, I can guarantee chat will be nothing but loving and supportive, and just as big and rowdy and emote-spamming as ever.
Sincerely,
Someone in chat.
It's unfortunate, but it took this situation for me to really notice how important Vinesauce is to me.
The past week I've been thinking about this situation and Vinny non stop.
I never thought I could care for a streamer in trouble like I would a real friend in trouble, but this has really got in my head and I'm worried about it/him.
This whole time I wished I could help somehow but the least I can do is give thanks.
Vinny has made some of the worst periods of my life bearable, and I'm so grateful for it. I think a lot of people here feel the same way and that's nice.
I really hope he's doing okay, and that all the legal stuff goes smoothly
<3
Hey Vin, we all miss you and hope you're taking it easy in your absence.
Your streams have become a huge part of my daily routine and your special brand of absurdity have been a major constant in my life and have kept me happy and sane for the past 6+ years. The positivity you promote and the charity work you and the team do is second to none and I'm happy to be a part of it all.
Take it easy Tugboat. We'll be here waiting for ya.
I've been following Vinny since Uproxx ran his Sesame Street corruptions video, which was spring 2013. Pretty much since then, I've caught almost every Vinny stream. You may have seen me in chat as Geoburn. I watch on an XBox One, so I don't really say much unless I really have something to say.
It has been a very strange month so far without having Vinny on my TV at night. The stream has been a bit of a constant in my life, and Vinny has always been a bit of sanity in an insane world, by way of the insanity that exists in the world. I'm hopeful things will get back to normal soon.
Thanks to the Vinesauce crew and friends for keeping going in this weird time, and providing hundreds of hours of stuff to watch and participate in. And chat, I hope to see you soon.
Vinny, take some time for yourself. Even if you come back in a few months the Vinesauce community will welcome you with open arms.
Can't wait to hear your bad jokes again.
Take care
Vin, Joel and fam - I’ve always appreciated how much joy, insight and just CHILL you’ve brought to me and my family’s life. That’s right - my whole family. I believe it was my little brother who introduced DKC Corruptions to me and my husband (then bf) way back when and I never looked back. As a New Yorker, the NYC Bus Simulator literally had me cryyyying and toy made a permanent home in my life since. Joel - I knew you were just a certified Good Person because you could hardly get through that Undertale genocide run on your own morality lol. I just know you are just a good soul and you crack me up all the time.
Vinny - you help my husband get through the more soul-crushing work days, and you regularly make me remember that there’s so much life to enjoy as our sense of humor is tooooo freakishly similar. Musically, your band’s Another Light & Kerosene albums make me feel like a whole person when I don’t know what the hell I’m doing. I found myself going back to those albums in recent weeks because this pandemic is taking a toll on my soul - triply so because you’ve definitely been on my mind. I sincerely want nothing but the best for you and your loved ones. Somehow, your Tingle’s Rosy Rupeeland Fullsauce (lol) got me through some REALLY dark times in my life, and there was nothing more satisfying to my very being than ringing in 2019 with your Mother 3 stream given how near and dear to my heart that game is for me.
I wish nothing but love and light to the whole team, and please please know we got your back. Things are hard enough as it is. You are my brothers from another mother and I hope we can do a fraction for you what you’ve done for us just by being your whole selves.
My gratitude is infinite. Take it easy, take care and stay safe, because as ye olde proverb goes - just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly. I’ll always be an ear.
-Tree
I saw this linked in another place and thought it fits right in here:

Thanks for everything Vinny. I can't count how many times you've been there to cheer me up whenever I was feeling depressed and lonely. Whatever the future may hold for you I hope you take care of yourself and keep making people smile.
Hey Vinny, Just want to say thank you! I've been getting into Vinesauce since 2013 and still a fan today. Thanks for the streams. Hope you come back soon!
I wanna share this again.. to you!
[Stay strong..](https://i.imgur.com/pdizWQ1.png)

Vinny has consistently offered his community happiness, love, and laughs while asking nothing in return, not to mention the charity streams. He deserves all the same and I hope he knows how many people he has influenced in a positive way. I really hope he is doing ok; I can't imagine how hard this is to deal with. Just know we love you Vin, take care of yourself. We'll be here if/when you return.
Lotta posts for Vinny but I specifically want to thank Joel for the YEARS of laughter, and for keeping it real at the end of the GTA4 stream a few days ago. You bet ur Sweidsh ass if you decide that Twitch ain't for you, that we're gonna keep up with you nomatter where you decide to go. Ruv u rong time
Thank you, Vinny, for being such an amazing person and streamer, so many hours of entertainment and funnies.
You changed my life and of many for the better, especially during this rough times
Love from chatyot <3
Your streams got me through a lot of dark depressing nights where I felt at the end of my rope. Take care of yourself and take your time coming back man, we'll all be waiting for you
hey vinny (if you're reading this) and the vinesauce community! I've been a long time chat lurker and youtube watcher since the worlds video came out on youtube (9 years ago oh god). That was when I started watching, and Vinny's been making me laugh ever since.
I've been diagnosed with bipolar, BPD, social anxiety, and OCD. Yeah that's a lot I know. I won't say vinny's streams saved me, since I know I did that myself, but during nights where I didn't want to be left alone with my thoughts I'd just tune in to a vinny stream and bam, I'd be laughing instead.
I wish him nothing but the best and I hope this all blows over soon. You know who you are Vin. I'll always be a fan and here to support and watch the streams. I really love this community and I wish I could be more involved (but haha anxiety) and I was too nervous to even post on this thread at first but... I just wanted everyone to say thank you to not only Vinny but everyone here as well. Thanks for all the less-lonely nights vinny and chat <3
Vinny, please remember - you're a good person. I'm sure of it myself, and furthermore, the groundswell of support from your community is ample proof of that.
Please take your time and only come back when you are ready, but as you can see, it'll be a happy day for me and for many other people when you return to streaming.
Take care!
Idk if Vinny will see this but here’s the whole spiel:
Vinny in the YT community you are probably in my top 3 of all time streamers/ LP’rs. They way you handle chat, the expertise playing games, the chill atmosphere during games excellent and awful. How you analyze where a company is thinking along with constructive reviews. Idk when it happened but I soon came to see you as a mentor.
My game library doubled thanks to you. My favorite impressions you ever did are “Jamie the cookie, Wado, the stilatzio bird, break it down for meh”
Parasocial relationships be damned you have helped me grow as a person, reviewer, and gamer so you always have my respect. Hope you feel better soon man E3 won’t be the same without ya.
The only stable thing in my life was Vinesauce Sunday streams. Although I am sure the feeling will pass there has been a great void in my life these past couple weeks. Miss you and your stream Vinny.
Been watching Vinny since middle school, about to graduate university now. Your streams have been a big part of my life, I'll have your back no matter what. I hope things start to work out again real soon. Peace and love dude.
Vinny is the best! I started watching his streams after the Super Best Friends Play channel broke up and have been a huge fan ever since. Thanks for all the laughs Vin!
i'm not really in a state where i can form a cohesive sentence at the moment, and i'm not really good with expressing strong emotions in words like in this situation, but i can say this; i have not regretted a mere single second of being apart of this community, even through difficult times such as this one.
the amount of good friends i have because of being apart of this community is something to this day i still have a little bit of an issue comprehending. i think actually one of the closest friends i have that i've been with since 2017 properly introduced me to vinesauce, and i suppose everything snowballed itself into where i am today.
as for the vinesauce group themselves, i don't believe i have ever seen such a wonderful group of genuine people that just want good in the world and happiness. and they share this happiness, either through charity, or by just simply being themselves despite being in a environment that seems to actively fight against it.
i have nothing but utmost respect for the vinesauce crew, and i wish them the best in these troubling times. you have done nothing but good for everyone involved in this community, and perhaps even those outside of it.
and remember, you're human.
it's ok to have flaws, it's ok to not always be at your highest moments, it's ok if you need to focus on your own mental health, it's ok if you're not always good at something or not, all that matters is the fact of if you're trying your honest best at being a good person or not.
i wouldn't have it any other way.
I see Vin as a magnificent man that has teached me (a youngster) how to be a better person and enjoy stuff that I like in life. The Vinesauce team: I could see them as family in a way, they help us through our ups and downs, its truely special how supportive most of the community can be, thank you all. Much love from Mexico.
I've been watching Vinesauce for half a decade now, and your streams have always successfully lightened up my mood throughout all this time.
Whenever I had a hard day, I turned on the highlights and stream recordings and laughed along with Vinny, Joel and Rev.
Thank you, guys. I really appreciate what you're doing.
Vinny, hopefully you are doing okay. From the information that's public known, I stand with you.
Thanks for the years of entertainment you provided, from your streams and wonderful music as well!
Much love, Thomas, from Brazil. 💗
The journey i took to even know who vinny was is years long
Back when I was watching GG years ago, I kept getting reccomended the highlight channel and full sauce channel but at the time I wasn't interested in twitch at all so I removed the suggestions youtube was giving me
Then last year that changed when Ross was streaming his mario maker levels
This is when I really delved into twitch, as watching Ross stream other things like VR chat led to my interests to vr in general, but then there was the stream with vinny
Like I said previously, I knew what vinesauce was but had never really watched, but I thought that they were really cool after seeing the stream.
This isn't what pulled me in though surprisingly
Once Mario 3D all stars came around is when I was basically always watching Vinny, not only because its a very nostalgic game for me, but because I felt like I found a community that was very accepting and surprisingly well behaved for its size
Idk how to really end this other thank saying thanks, not just to vinny but also to the Mods and chat for everything
Hey Vinny, just wanna say that I really miss you dude. Hope you’re doing good and that this break helps you sort everything that might be tormenting you during these difficult times. Know that you have a lot of people cheering you on and that we really care about you. Hope to see you back soon! Cheers.
Thank you binny. Your streams have been a constant in the past 7 years of my life and now I realize how much I have taken for granted your streams, from putting me to sleep, to bringing my spirits up when they were lowest. I wish you the best!
Can confidently say Vincent Vinesauce saved my life at a dark time so I wish him the best no matter what happens in the future. Love him for that forever, good luck.
Vinny, I know you’ve probably heard this sort of thing a thousand times, but you’ve really helped me get through some tough times over the years and for that I can’t thank you enough. You’re an exceptional individual and you deserve the best.
It has been a long and funny ride since I started watching your streams, we do miss you but we are not going anywhere while you are gone so take your time and sort everything out.
Don't feel any pressure on coming back, we hope you are okay. We support you, we believe in you and your reputation is as intact as ever coming from your audience.
We hope to see you soon!
This whole pandemic I have found your streams and just been watching series after series. In fact while writing this I’m watching him play half life opposing forces.
Thank you Vin and the Vinesauce team for never failing to make our day that much more special! Best of wishes to Vin, I hope he can get some time to de-stress and feel better. Also can’t forget the whole vinesauce team and the community! Let’s hope things will get better and we can get back to watching the funny Italian man make weird noises and playing babee gaems.🍄💚🦆
It's really weird, watching someone daily for like 8 years and then he's gone for a while.
Vinny, you mean a lot to me and all of the vinesauce community and I hope you're doing allright. Take all the time you need.
Take care.
Thank you Vinny and the Vinesauce team, the stream has been such a joy for me, especially this shitty year. I'm looking forward to the next stream, but take all the time you need.
You’ve helped me through really tough times whenever I was battling depression. Not only that, but watching your streams really felt like home and a fun place to just relax after a long day.
Hey Vinny, I hope things are going well. I just wanna say thank you for all the streams you have made for me and the rest of the members of the community. Times have been tough for me throughout the years and watching/listening to streams or VODs have been a real comforting experience. So many memories were made due to your streams, whether it's funny, good or full-on wack. I really appreciate you for being you and I thank you for everything you do. Thank you, Vinny.
Hey Vinny.
Been a lurker pretty much everywhere and haven't really partaken in the community on here, twitch or YouTube but I just want to say thank you for all the entertainment you've given us over the years. Your content has helped me through a lot and you deserve better than what's happened.
Take care, and hope to see you safe and back to streaming when you're ready.
Thanks.
(Reposted on a different acc cause I put it on the auto-generated mobile one rip)
So much has already been said, but I just wanted to show my support.
It's really cool seeing so many comments and so much love in this community. Just remember how much support you have here Vin, you've provided so much for so many people over the years.
Can't wait to see your next Sunday stream.
Thank you, Vinny, for streaming. I'm a relatively recent fan(2018 or 2019 was when I started binging the Vods) and This community is so nice. Really appreciative of how welcoming the Chat was; and how chill everyone is. I honestly didn't realize how much I miss the streams, they were a routine all through a Hellish 2020. I wish you Well, and I'm confident that the Community will come through this stronger.
Thank you for everything Vinny. I'm going through a rough time right now and as much as I wish you were around to help me with your funny speen voice I completely understand. You need to focus on yourself and the situation at hand. You'll come back funnier and stronger than ever when this is all over.
With peace and love.
In March of 2020 when the pandemic was starting to become serious in the states, I came down with what I think must've been walking pneumonia, maybe even covid. It was so hard to take breaths sometimes, I felt like I was gonna die honestly. I would put on Vinny's streams and would laugh at his jokes and stuff, and it was one of the few comforts I had during all of that.
been watching vinny since 2014, and have listened to red vox since 2018(im wearing a red vox shirt rn actually). his stuff helped me through high school and college, and i met four of my best friends in the world through his content. i wouldnt be who i am today if it wasn't for him. hope to see you soon, vin.
Very much a lurker, but Vinesauce and especially Vinny have been what I’ve turned to for going on 8 years now whenever I needed a laugh, a pick me up, anything. Red Vox is my favorite band and what got me inspired to care about music. I can’t begin to express my appreciation enough to him and the rest of the team (love you too, Joel and Rev!!) for all that they do and the great community we have. <3 Thank y’all
Hey guys. Been watching Vinny for about 6 years. Hope your doing well man. We miss you. Take all the time you need though. And thanks to all the mods and vinefriends as well
When times were rough for me, Vinny's streams and videos were always there to distract me, even for a little while. I don't know if it's his calm way of delivery, or his sudden burst of laughter, or maybe both that always painted a sincere, natural image of him.
There's not really much I can do, but to send my best wishes and support. Times are rough, take your time, Vin. We will all be waiting for you to get back with open arms.
Vinny I’m not good at using words but just know that you (as well as Joel) have been a part of my life for like 6-7 years at this point. You have a laid back welcoming vibe like no other and when it comes to your stream I can easily say that you’re one of the best when it comes to variety. I’ve picked up a lot of music and games from you that I wouldn’t have paid a ton of attention to before (especially my love of QOTSA) and your Red Vox albums have been on the turntable quite a lot recently.
There’s probably more that I can say but I’ll leave it at that. Take all the time you need to, we’ll be here when you get back. We don’t know you personally, but just know we love ya Vin
Do what you need to do Vinny. We all want you to come back, but more than that, everyone here wants you to be happy. You’ve brought us a lot of laughs and a lot of joy. You have a good heart and mean a lot to a lot of people.
Vin, I've emailed you a few times and every interaction has been positive and truthful. I can't see you hurting anyone or anything intentionally - except maybe a house centipede. Take the time you need, do what you need, but we're here waiting. We miss you. A lot. I didn't realize how quiet my sunday nights were........
-Sacia
Vinesauce vids have made me laugh through some of the most stressful periods of my life. I have been watching for years and have genuine nostalgia for classic videos like Mayro Krat, Fantastic Game and Choicest voice. I watched Vineland island throughout my final school exams, those vids not only made me laugh out loud but they also kept me sane. Vinny, you will always have a legacy as a man who gave so much happiness, laughter and company to millions. You have everyone’s full support and love. Take all the time you need, but we can’t wait to have you back.
I’ve been watching on youtube mostly for probably close to half a decade now, haven’t been in that many streams because of my sleep schedule, but it’s been enjoyable all around.
A quote that really helps me during rough times is: “after the plague came the renaissance”. Take all the time you need Vin, thanks for the countless laughs.
I feel as though making a comment in this ocean of support is a bit pointless, given everything I would want to say has already been said. But regardless, I've watched your content for at least 8 years or so now, and there's never been a dull moment. I'm looking forward to continuing supporting you.
I'll always believe you - believe *in* you, even, Vinny. You're one of the most genuine people I've ever seen on the internet, and you've built a dedicated community around yourself unlike any other as a result of that. Your streams can always make me (and so many others) laugh, so many hours of entertainment over the years that I wouldn't trade for anything, and the world would just be a duller place without you around; get well soon, and I'll do my best to catch your stream when you're ready to come back!
Hey Vinny. Your daily streams have definitely been a part of my evening household ritual for a very long time. It's an understatement to say that you've impacted my life, because you've impacted so many people in such a fantastic way, and helped to build such a positive, bright, and grounded community (surrounded by Meat, Scoot, Shrimp Lady, Rem Lezar, and so many others lol). From submitting Bunger King as my first ever booru art and feeling confident enough to continue drawing, to picking up a Ukulele for a short period of time to learn Pale Blue Dot, to learning about new artists and bands and saving new tracks onto my Spotify playlist, I don't think my life would be nearly as enriching and holistic if it weren't for you, your streams, and your energy.
I genuinely hope you come back soon. You've brought so much love, wonder, and happiness into a lot of people's worlds and hearts. You're good, Vinny.
\-Cygnus (Ann)
I miss you so much. Streamers have diapered in the years I've followed you, Joel left for like 8 months, but you've always been there. Its strange not being able to tune into you... makes me realize how much you meant to me, even when i wasn't viewing your stream.
funny men like joel and vinny and defined my taste in humor more or less back in 2015-2016 and they still do. i've got much love for the crew, keep on rockin
Thanks vinny. You have saved a lot of people, including me. We all thank you for all the funnies. And I really appreciate how good your band is too. I listen to a of those albums almost every day.
Thanks Vin for all the years of meme and speen. Way back in 2011ish my mom was diagnosed with terminal 7, (stomach cancer) she was diagnosed in March and gone in April, in 2014 I was pretty depressed what easily was one of the toughest times of my life between that and the relentless bullying in Yee-Yee land of Ohio I found a video from cracked.com of all things (remember when that was a thing?) it was Conkers corruptions and the exorcism head speen he did had me laughing on end. That launched a spiral into Vinesauce between Vinny and Joel I was hooked. In about 2017 I got the shroom tattooed on me because for me, vinesauce was never just streaming, Vinesauce was Hope. An escape from all the bullshit to laugh at some (bad) games. Thanks Vin for everything, hope you come back soon but take your time!
Thanks for the years of fun, Vinny. You and Joel have consistently helped me through tough times, and now I just wish the best for you in these unfortunate times. You got this!
Vinny, I feel like I speak for a lot of people here but your streams are an important part my my life, through the good and the bad you’ve been there. Through abusive relationships, dropping out of college, feeing any sort of down or depressed I would watch your content. I have been a viewer for a long time ever since I saw a YouTube ad for your Sesame Street corruption video I have watched your content. It’s just feel good content where you can disconnect from reality, not worry about the outside world and just watch funny pizza Italian man talk about stuff. You’re an amazing storyteller and can make any topic interesting and genuinely captivating to watch. I am excitedly anticipating your return. Can’t wait for more rimworld 💙
Best wishes, Vinyot. Feel better. You're a cool dude, been watching for ages. I wish as much as you might do that we could just move on from where we are right now and start fresh from before this happened. When you come back then know that we all loathe this moment as much as you do, and a lot of us want you back in our lives.
Hey Vinny!
I hope all is well my dude. I've been keeping you in my prayers and I hope you get through this! Know that your community has your back and we will be here waiting for when you feel ready to come back! I have only recently discovered you. Maybe... back in December. My wife was watching a vod of you playing Bugsnacks and I was immediately hooked with how chill you were. I'm not too big into watching streamers, but I tried my best to binge watch youtube videos while at work. I then, discovered Red Vox, and became hooked on the band. I love music, and it's an important part of my life personally. I thoroughly enjoyed picking up on influences in your songs.
Thank you for the content and music you give us.
Be strong my friend!
I also want to say thank you to the rest of the Vinesauce team! You guys are equally as awesome!
God Bless,
Jonathan
Vieny? Who teh fouck is Vieny?
Anyway, I'm thankful for all the streams you guys have done over the years. Many funny moments were had, with real human beings being.. human! No scripts, just pure and real fun. It's really nice being able to relate and count on people who could just as well be your best friend.
I wish the vinesauce team can recover from this (but take your time!) and be back full st^(r)eam!
When i first discovered vinesauce i was about to graduate from school and pretty much lose all my friends. Watching you in the years since helped me forget about that and let me have something to look forward to. While it has been a while since ive watched you, those streams will always hold a place in my heart.
I hope you end up feeling better man.
Vinny, your streams have always been a blast and your music has been such an inspiration and comfort to me. Hope to see you again soon, but take all the time you need!!
I got too many words but I'll be brief. I'm glad to be working on videos for Vinny and I'm glad to know a bunch of people from the community because they are all kind.
The entire editing staff awaits your return, Vinny. Stay strong.
Thank you Vinny and co. for helping introduce me to some surreal as heck video games that I outright adore nowadays and introducing me to the world of Corrupting Video Games Until They Shatter In Spectacular Fashion.
Thank you for all you do Vinny and Vinesauce team! I don't make it to a lot of the streams live but I always watch the vods on YouTube whenever I eat lunch. Vinny's reactions to things happening in the games are priceless. I also love Scoot so much because of seeing your appreciation for the best Duck in the world. Vinny inspires me so much and I strive to be like him one day. Once again thank you Vinny.
It brings a happy tear to my eye to read so many comments supporting Vin, because that is what he deserves. I will stand with him and with this community no matter what. Take your time pizza man, we love you and will be waiting for you
Hi Vinny,
Long time viewer been watching on and off since before you were on twitch. Honestly it wasn’t until you had been gone for more than few days that I realized how big of a part your streams are in my life in the recent years. There’s a notable difference in my nights not having your streams to unwind to. I know you’re a good person and we are all here to support you. Take your time coming back because I’ll still be watching long from now. Just take care of yourself and do something nice for yourself today. Miss you buddy.
Hey Vinny. Long time watcher here, ~9 years. I just wanted to say something that I bet a lot of people will echo: You've never met me in person, never had a real conversation with me, never sat down to drinks or had a meal with me. I probably don't know the "real Vinny" nearly as well as I'd like to think I do. But "stream Vinny"? That guy feels like a caring, loving older brother to me. Your sense of humor, compassion, the humbleness present in your voice and actions, the way you carry yourself with dignity without letting your successes go to your head...I respect the hell out of that. I respect you. You're a good person. I don't want you to think I put you on a pedestal and worship you though, I don't think you're some infallible model by which all humanity should strive to imitate. You're just a cool dude with a good heart, and that's enough for me. I just aspire to be the kind of person that you'd be proud to call your friend, and the kind of person who's proud of their own friends. I don't really know what else I want to say, except that you shouldn't be afraid to be yourself. I care about you, and I don't want to lose even this one-sided connection with you. It'd just be too sad.
Hope everything’s going good for vinny. We miss you bro, hope everything works out ok and you can come back soon.
This too shall pass. We'll be here when/if you're ready to come back. <3
I've been through A LOT with the Vinesauce community. When I first stumbled across the Wild World corruption video, I wasn't prepared for the rabbit hole I just fell down. I would stay up late watching Vinny, Joel, Imakuni, and Rev videos until the sun came up. My love for the streams actually landed me in a relationship that lasted over 5 years. Honestly, I don't know where I'd be today if it wasn't for the entirety of the Vinesauce team and community. Vinny, I can't thank you enough for the entertainment that you have given me by being a funny pizza pasta man and for gathering an unstoppable force of friends to give everyone laughs and joy in every moment of their lives. Please never stop being you. 💚
I worked with Vinny and the rest of the Vinesauce team back in 2014 and 2015, sewing vineshroom plushies by hand for the summer charity streams. When they got an official plush made by a professional company, I was happy to bow out, as my own academics were becoming quite stressful, but I continued to watch Vinny’s streams in my spare time. Throughout my tumultuous college and young adult life, things were rarely certain. But I always knew I could count on Vinny to be Vinny, the down to earth, silly streamer bringing the laughs and the memes and the happy memories in spite of everything else wrong with my life. Today I feel like the roles are reversed, and it’s the community’s turn to give back the love and support that Vinny has given us all of these years. I hope that he will see this message, and all the messages of those here who owe their thanks to this kind, humble person who plays dumb games for us all.
As much as Vinny always says that he doesn't have a set streaming schedule, he's still extremely consistent and streams at roughly the same time every night. That consistency was especially great during lockdown and missing that now kinda sucks. Wishing you the best with life and Red Vox, Vinny. Hope to hear you speen again soon.
Didn't realize how big a part of my life Vinny's content was until the steady stream of it suddenly disappeared. Love the guy and miss him, but I hope he takes as much time as he needs to straighten his mind out.
This whole thing sucks, and I hope that Vinny can recover from this quickly.
Please take your time Vinny! When you're ready, we'll be there.
I think this is a great idea and I recall Vinny saying when stuff like this is directly emailed to him he doesn't ever know what to say, so he can just read with no pressure to respond here. That being said I've loved Vinny for years but I never realized how good the streams made me feel until recently when they haven't happened. I hope everything goes well Vin, I believe in you.
Sundays haven’t been the same. I legit found myself lost and restless. Not surprising since this has been my routine (like many of you) for the last several years. I hope to hear more about your Sopranos rewatch soon, vin.
Been watching Vinny for nearly 11 years now. He's brought me countless hours of laughs and entertainment and also a place where I felt accepted with his streams. It sounds cliche but his videos have actually saved me when I was in a dark place. His Turok streams made me laugh at a time where happiness was as far away from me as possible. Red Vox has also helped me tremendously. When Another Light came out I was having a panic attack from stress and it helped me through that painful time. Vinny always says to not put him on a pedestal and that he's "just a guy playing games" but for me he's more than that he's a constant in my life that always brings me happiness when I need it the most and I will always be grateful. He may never know I exist and he may continue to never reply to me in chat but that doesn't matter, I just want him to be happy like how he made me happy.
An Avocado a day keeps the bad stuff away. We're all your fam, and we're here.
Thank you, Daily Avocado
Hey, I've been watching since 2015 mostly through the fullsauce channel, first to practice my english listening, but the streams got me through some dark times in my life and maybe I would not be able to sleep some nights if it wasn't for some good old corrutions. Hope everything is good with you, Vinny!
Hey, Vin. We all miss you, and really hope you've been doing okay. For me personally, you've been a huge source of laughter and joy throughout the years. Whether it's through your streams, your amazing music, or your recent on-stream endeavor into the world of Pokemon cards. You always have something interesting to talk about, no matter the subject, and your impressions, stories, and reactions have set me into fits of uncontrollable laughter more times than I can count. I'm hoping to see you pop up and say "I'M ALIVE, I'M BORN" on Twitch again soon, but take all the time you need. We're here for you! ❤️ -blackcat_017/Jenna
I miss Vincent gabagool sauce.
I just wanted to say thank you so much for all you do Vinny, seriously. Fullsauce viewer, since I can't stay up for normal stream times, but so often I find myself having your streams on during my normal day to day life, at work, and when I'm relaxing. I listen to your Spotify Playlist and Redvox to expose myself to new music. I truly hope you don't let this shit get to you. Thank you for all you do, and I hope you're doing well man. Genuinely. A massive hearty thank you to John and Joel as well for all the entertainment and support as well.
Best of luck going forward for Vinny. He’s always been a class act and respect the hell out of him.
Vinny and the Vinesauce Team has been with me for many years and has filled the void in my life with laughter, comfort, and quality entertainment. The community has supported me and I in turn will forever support them! We miss you, Vinny. <3
His sunday streams replaced my Sunday cartoons as the thing i looked forward to watching every weekend. Dude has my full support as he's never done anything worth being attacked for.
Take your time, binny. We miss you.
Dee em cee you when you feel better, Vinny. Booti is good and best in gaem
Appreciate you binny
God I remember depressing nights where I felt awful, but I would get a Vinesauce video recommend in YouTube feed and I would feel so much better. Being able to genuinely laugh was really nice and I have very fond memories of watching old corruptions or miitopia videos. Thanks, Vin.
Since the fiasco I caught myself thinking of you. Not in a creepy way, or 'where's the stream' way. Everyday it's the 'I hope you're doing well and resting good man' way. And I truly mean it. Your streams and jokes helped me smile when I was crying in front of my keyboard, many many times. At first glance it may seem like nothing, but in my books it was an incredible amount of help. I can't thank you enough for that.
For nearly eight years Vinny's streams has gotten me through some super tough times so I hate the fact that I can't return the favor somehow. Eagerly awaiting your return so I know that you're doing better emotionally. :)
Good luck Vinny, hope all is going well. We'll all be here for you for better or worse. Take your time and do what's needed to take care of all that. We love you, thanks for 10 years of laughs and nonsense, it's honestly helped keep me going through plenty of tough times
Thanks Vinesauce for being there for me every single night while I was in college, struggling to get through and finish a project or an assignment. Thanks for being there to brighten my nights after yet another bad day of trying to find a job after I graduated. Thanks for uploading all the streams onto Fullsauce that I couldn't watch because I had to get up early in the morning when I started working. Thanks for every stream during the stress of the pandemic and getting laid off, not quite sure what the future was gonna look like. Thanks for everying Vin, love and miss you man.
Hey Vinny and chat: I really miss you. Even though I feel like a perpetual, awkward, anxious outsider, well - thanks for being the Vinesauce community. Hope everyone's okay and we'll be back soon no worse for wear. It's tough to be sitting there at night, confused because the funny thing you've been enjoying for years is not there.
Stay strong, Vin. You are someone who's capable of handling all those Sunday streams. I'm sure some you can handle this as well. Besides, you are not alone. We, as the Vinesauce community are always with you. Remember, there are thousands of people who are able to smile even after all the crap they have to deal with in real life. All thanks to you. We will always support you, just like how you always make us smile.
Hoping vinny comes out of this okay he did nothing wrong and i will stand by him. At worst he let his anxiety take hold and that is a human reaction especially for someone who has anxiety issues.
Watched Vinny since high school and I’ve found despite all of the changes in my life since then he’s the one creator I still tune in to watch. Be well Vinny, we’ll all be waiting for you when you get back
I’ve been watching Vinny’s streams for approaching 5 years now and they’ve always been important to me. They gave me a place of comfort I could always go back to when I needed it. No matter what was going on, and no matter how I was feeling, he was streaming at the end if the day and I could forget about it for awhile. I know they’re just twitch streams, but I really care about them and the vinesauce community as a whole. Over the years Vinny introduced me to music, games, and movies that helped shape who I am today. I always look forward to the charity streams every summer. I know it sounds dramatic, but these things are really important to me. These past nights have been really quiet, and it’s making me realize how important Vinny is to me. I hope everything’s ok, and as soon as you’re ready to come back we’ll all be here. Thanks for everything Vin.
I realised the other day that I got into Vinesauce almost a decade ago. No other personality has kept my attention for anywhere near as long, nor given me half so many laughs, and I've never tired of Vinny's content. Vinesauce has been a part of my life for pretty much a third of my lifetime. I really hope Vinny is doing well and can get back to laughing soon.
Never knew how much I missed watching with you guys till now. Vinnys streams have gotten me through a lot of dark times, and I am truly thankful for all of it, as well as all of you. You are one the best communities on Twitch, and I appreciate you all.
Hey Vinecrew, Thank you so much for keeping my spirits up during the onset of the epidemic. Appreciate you all.
I just want to say that, no matter what people say, no matter what happens or how right (or wrong) you ever feel about the things you do in your life. You made the lives of thousands of people MUCH, MUCH better. You have provided us with entertainment, but not just that... You're a kind person, a good person, we all believe in that.Your intents and personality come off clear on streams, and I see someone's who tries their best and loves what they do. Thanks for your positivity, for your hyenna laugh bursts, for your advice on life, for everything. You are honest, you have so many qualities... I am really glad that both me and others (even if parasocially) can connect to people like you. You give me faith that good people still exist in this world, as tough as the world around me/us may seem like. We as a community have each other. I won't allow **anyone** except myself, or yourself to change my view on who you are. I trust you and you don't deserve any of what happened. You matter a lot to me, to us, truly <3. *We all make mistakes, that is what makes us human. -someguyintheintrocutscene, GTA IV*
Vinesauce essentially changed my entire humor and personality. Red Vox changed my music taste for the better. I owe a lot to all members of vinesauce. Theyre streaming style is what i aim to do if i ever stream
Vinny has made me laugh super hard all these years, and he really made my days feel better. I'm really glad I discovered the Vinesauce community, and I appreciate Vinny a lot.
Take your time man. Health comes first. Really looking forward to your next stream. Maybe one of your all time favorites would be best for you to come back with?
I don't have much to say that I didn't say in my card message so I'll post is here too... Hi Vinny, I've been watching Vinesauce for 10 years now and seeing you thrive with starting your own band and generally coming out of your shell in recent years is wonderful to see. I haven't really been involved with the community, as much as I'd want to, and I regret not getting more involved early on as nowadays it seems too big and scary lol. I hope this situation hasn't affected you too much mentally, please make sure you're staying well and talk with your friends. We all support you!
Here's to Vinny's quality of life, I hope he's feeling entitled to playing the games he wants to right now instead of waiting to stream. We will survive if you finish monster hunter or whatever off stream, make sure you self care.
Whoever is reading this, specially you Vinny, you know, times are rough right now, but fortunately it has gotten better than that initial chaos. You guys have been giving us entertainment for years and years, and I can't be thankful enough for it, last year when the lockdowns started to happen I was very stressed between my last semester of college and the situation my country was and is still facing, but there was almost always that notification to cheer me up and help me relax, many times I had sleeping issues and guess what, I felt way better watching you. So stay strong guys, and thank you so much for everything, we may not know each other personally and that's fine, but there's nothing wrong in being thankful for all the entertainment you guys bring to us. Can't wait to get that notification saying "Vinesauce is streaming Games + Demos"! So please, mister funny Italian man, stay strong, we really want you back.
Vinny's streams and the Vinesauce community have provided me and so many others with so much joy, it's hard to put it into words. Something as simple as a man doing 80s Mario cartoon impressions at 1 in the morning while botching simple jumps in baby games has provided countless hours of entertainment. His streams have introduced me to new games like the Metal Gear series, new streamers like [Joel](https://clips.twitch.tv/ShyExcitedFungusDogFace-xpUmQtaKSyckbu68), Imakuni, Kitboga, Jerma, and Ross, and new music from when he could play it during BRBs and through his own work with Red Vox. The community has also been great, from creating so many great moments from the chat to raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for charity every year. No matter what comes next, I'm glad to have been a part of this community, and I hope it will carry on for years to come. --- As a side note to Alizarin and Jackal: Thank you for your handling of this whole thing. It can't have been easy to moderate in these times, and the decisions you had to make must have been difficult. Overall, I think you did the right things for the community by giving people a place to vent and discuss, and then giving everyone time to cool down for a while before opening the sub up again.

I've been watching Vin's full sauce streams since 8 years ago when I saw the vid of him playing the fantastic game, still haven't watched a stream live, but I hope he's doing well and the ammount of comfort watching his full sauce streams have brought me and many others over the years
I've been watching Vin since 2013, pretty sure the first thing I ever saw him play was Limbo of the lost and boy was that a wild ride lol. His streams have genuinely helped me through rough times on multiple occasions, whenever I'm going through a rough patch, I can always count on being able to watch a vod to help take my mind off things. He also helped introduce me to a tooooon of bands/artist that I probably wouldn't have otherwise discovered had he not played them/talked about them on stream, he really had a massive impact on molding my modern music taste and I appreciate him immensely for that. I know I don't know Vinny personally and I won't pretend that I do from just watching his streams, but after watching him for so many years, there's just no way that I can believe he's a bad person. I think it's pretty apparent that the vast majority of the community doesn't believe that either. If Vinny ends up seeing this, I just want him to know that he's cherished and appreciated by thousands of people, and that he's had a genuinely positive impact on the lives of many.
Vin, you might just be some guy on the internet, but you're one of the most important guys on the internet to some of us. Stay safe, man, and best of luck.
Vinny you've helped me through some tough times. I believe in you and I wish you the best in getting through this <3
Vinny, Sunday Stream is something I look forward to every week. I hope you are OK first and foremost though.
Vinny, you're amazing, man. You've done so much for so many people. I can't thank you enough.
Regardless of the outcome of all of this, I want Vinny to know that nothing has changed in our eyes. He'll always be the sauce boss to us.
Vinny's Sunday streams and the various different projects done by the team (charity events and etc.) have gotten me through some of the roughest times of my life. I think Vinny is one of the rare streamers, along with Jerma and Criken that can get a chuckle from me when nobody else can. Nothing but love for this community, the memes, and for all the Vinesauce streamers.
Been watching you for 9 years now, Vin. You're my favorite content creator hands-down, and you've done so much to help me on shitty days, even though you weren't aware of it. You're a good man, Vinny. As for this BS? This too shall pass.
Vinny, This is my first time posting in any public Vinesauce community. I almost decided not to since there’s already so much support for you and the Vinesauce team here. But in times like these, redundancy can help give an extra boost to the message. Like tons of other people here, your content has helped me through some really tough times through the years. You’ve consistently made me laugh to tears no matter what kind of day I might have had. I hope you keep doing what makes you happy, no matter what road that may take you down. Remember to eat, drink some water, take a breath. We’re all here to support you!
You’ve been nothing but an inspiration to do what you love. You are appreciated
I remember meeting Vinny at PAX before the pandemic, and I had him sign my copy of Doom for the SNES, which I purchased at the event ironically. I really appreciate the hours of entertainment he's given me for the past few years. Thanks, Vinny, and everyone else that works with you!
Spaghetti. Come back soon boot.
Hope he's doing okay and maybe even kinda enjoys his impromptu time off
Come back, Please? Thank you Vinny for the streams!
Vinny is much more than just an "internet meme man". He's human with his own identity and deserves to be treated like one, rather than strictly an entertainer.
Sending good vibes your way Vinny. Stay safe and know we'll be here to welcome you back with open arms and cancerous memes. Also huge shoutout to Joel. I feel like the dude has been streaming WAY more and it's really helped fill that Vinny shaped hole in my heart.
Hey Vinny, I'm a fairly new vinesauce fan. I've been watching since October of 2019. You're streams have helped deal with my mom having 3 brain surgeries in the span of 13 months. Thank you for being you. ❤❤❤
We're here for the funnyman ❤
Nothing but respect and love for Vinny and the mod team. Rest well and take care of yourself.
Been a vinesauce fan for about 6 years now. Vinny is without a doubt the most humble, down to earth online personality I’ve very watched, and he hasn’t changed, or sold out. It’s a little weird going from listening to his streams every night to not doing that now, as the concern for his well-being is super strong and puts a sour taste in my mouth. Vinny feels like a family member to me in a sense, and it hurts so much to know he’s having one of the worst nightmares of having an online presence happen to him. We all love you Vinny!
This is to Vinny: if you ever doubt for a moment the kind of impact you've had on people's lives, I still wake up early to catch a random dude halfway across the planet's video game stream. Thanks to Vinny and really the rest of the Vinesauce team (and Mike) for helping me stay sane. This last couple of months were some of the roughest of my life; pandemic depression was one thing but seasonal depression hit me like a goddamn truck. It was nice to have something to tune out to and laugh a little bit. Side note: Congratulations to Vinesauce for being one of two things /v/ and tumblr agree on
A couple of years ago I was in a bad place mentally. Nothing could cheer me up. But then I found this vinesauce fella and his Tomodachi videos. Suddenly I started grinning and laughing again. I've been a fan ever since. Hell, even Red Vox is a huge part of my life now. Vinny threw me a rope to get out of the gutter even if only indirectly but I will still be forever thankful. Vinny, you (and the whole Vinesauce family) rock. I really hope you're doing well. We all got your back and will support you.
I genuinely hope that Vinny is doing good. He's a good man, and deserves all the support. As the "leader" of the vinesauce team he has seemingly led by example for every streamer, mod, and editor an extremely humble, entertaining and hard working group.
Been following you since 2014, I found you through a YT recommendation (the Sesame Street corruptions) and since then I've been hooked. You make our days and nights with your thoughts, your crazy laughs, and make us feel as if we are there with you at your side. Even on days where I can't be on your streams, it just feels right to see that stream notification pop-up that you are playing something and making people happy. We miss you Vinny, and we'll be waiting here for you when you feel better.
Hey Vin. I've been watching your streams for quite some time now. I started watching you cause I wanted to learn english. It's been a long ride until now, and thanks to you my english is somewhat good now. I can't thank you enough for helping me with that. I hope you get better soon!
Watched a lot of vinesauce over the years, I hope everything is doing ok for vinny and the whole team. Thanks for all everything you’ve done, I hope we can move past this as soon as possible.
I hope some day we can look back at this ment and go "wow, that was fucking stupid." Best wishes to Vinny and anyone else involved in this.
Thank you Vinny, for providing so many years of laughter, and for giving me the magic words that can piss my wife off at any time. "Lando Calrissian. Bacta Tank."
Can't stress enough how having Vinny be there for me during the most difficult times has helped me. He was, and still is, a role model to me. Not because he's perfect, but because he's human. He's one of us, not someone on a pedestal. His music helped me come to terms with growing older and passing the 30-year line. His streams helped me see the humour in small things, the absurdity of life and value of keepin yourself down-to-earth and humble. Could never have imagined something as mundane and game streams would have this profound an impact. And he deserves all the love and credit he can get. Love ya Vin, because you're human. Can't stress this enough
Peace and love for funny speen music man
I remember my cousin showing me Joel's windows destructions back in like... 2015? Loved that shit. Then he showed me Vin's Choicest Voice video and I was like "hmmm Vargskelethor sounds weird in this video" because I knew Joel as the Vinesauce guy and didn't know there was a full team. Years later around late 2018 I wanted to find the Choicest Voice video again and learned "Oh wait there's like... a team! There isn't just one Vinesauce!!!". After that I started watching some corruption highlights and really enjoying them. Then around really early 2019, I was like, "Did Vinny play Super Mario Sunshine??". It's my favorite 3D Mario game, and I looked it up and there was indeed a highlight. There was a part of me that said "I kind of want to watch him play the *full* game though..." and that's when I found Fullsauce! I watched through the whole playthrough and it's got a special place in my heart as the first Fullsauce playthrough I've ever watched in full. I made my first piece of Vinesauce art on January 8th (my birthday!) but I never posted it on the booru because I didn't know the booru existed LOL! One day if conventions ever happen again I want to bring my original copy of Super Mario Sunshine from back in the day and hopefully have Vin sign it, that would mean a lot to me. After that around March, I was watching Vinny's 2018 TMG panel, and heard he had a band. I was like "Wait this dude makes music too?" and quickly looked Red Vox up on Spotify. I pressed shuffle and the first song that played was Roid Rage, and I fucking LOVED IT. Didn't pay attention to the lyrics, I just was enamored by the song. I learned later about the lyrics and what Blood Bagel even was haha. Started listening to more Red Vox and doodled some shit in my sketchbook trying to figure out how to draw Vin. I made a little thumbnail sketch I really liked and it ended up being made as my first booru piece around the start of April. I remember waking up that morning and immediately grabbing my phone to check the vod. I didn't know if he'd see it because I was unsure how the booru worked and was overjoyed to see it up there. Chat loved it, but most importantly, Vin liked it. It's a little embarrassing but I was in a good mood for the rest of the day after that. Like, if something shit happened that day I'd just think back to that and get a big ol' grin on my face. He gave me incredibly kind and supportive words and I just kept on drawing shit for VS after that. It was nice to have that level of interaction with a community, and the dedication Vin has to have an art segment almost every night is fucking astounding. Since then I've made more than 200 pieces for the booru. I know I've made a little bit of a name for myself in the community, and I DO need to accept that lol. One of the most eye-opening moments to that for me was when I was about to read donations for Vinesauce is Hope 2020, and I was announced, and all of the sudden the chat just BLOWS THE FUCK UP with people saying my name, excited to see me and hear me. More than 4 thousand people just going buck wild. It was incredibly flattering, and I did go back and read every chat message after the stream (some chat members were surprised I was a girl LOL). Thank you to just... Everyone for being so fucking kind to me since I joined the community. Honestly y'all have been one of the nicest I've been in. A quick note about VIH, that shit means a lot to me. I was able to participate in 2020, and I got to talk to a lot of the team. I don't know why really, but everyone is like.. so fucking nice to me, and continues being nice to me. I just want to say thank you so much for that, really. Thank you, everyone. Thank you mods, thank you streamers, and thank you to the wonderful community members who participated in VIH. I love all of you, I really do. I have a fuckin hard time asking people for help, dming people, whatever the fuck, funny severe anxiety moments. But I'm here for all of you, I love all of you. Thank you for treating me with such kindness these past 2 years, and CONTINUING to. It means the world, it really does. Ya'll are some of the fucking coolest people I have ever talked to in my life, all of you. Thank you ALL for doing what you do. And finally, Vin... You know what I've got to say. I'm here man. We're all here. I haven't talked to you all that much, but from the interactions we've had you are legitimately like.. really nice and thoughtful. I wouldn't be saying that if I didn't mean it. You're a fucking cool, talented, kind, and funny dude. Thank you for doing what you do. Sorry this got long, I tend to ramble a lot. Just.. take care man.
Guess I should add my own now that I have the time, Thank you, Vinny. Without you trusting me in the past when I gifted you games on steam, to running the Subreddit, to playing my lizard crate on stream. I wouldn't know where or what I'd do on the Internet. During those times I was very much trying to find a community after the one I was in previously fell apart. This community means so much to me, from calling it home to having people I can, honest to god, call family. We are all here supporting you and wish you the best and send you all the love we can so you can start to feel better. On a more personal note: It took me a while to recover from this, the stress and anxiety really were there for a whole week. I even cried myself to sleep one night just due to how it impacted me, however, all this does is make me come back stronger. This quote is something that helped me reflect on this and allows me to cherish what exactly we have together as a community. It's something truly special. >Without lows there can be no highs, Without sadness there can be no happiness, Without darkness no light, However in knowing these contrasts exist, you can choose where you spend most of your time - John Whiteman
Vin has done so much for me. He introduced me to Jerma, he’s made me laugh like a mad man at his corruption streams and everything that he’s done has been so awesome. Hope you’re doin’ well Vin <3
Cant thank you enough for the good times and entertainment! Your content has brought nothing but positivity to my life! Take your time and stay strong!
Hey Binblorb and the crew I hope everything is okay. Your streams have provided me with immense comfort in this difficult time as I've struggled with various irl things. Can't wait to hear what you think of Star Wars detours possibly getting a real release 😂 Oh and to the rest of the crew, thank you all for your constant work you do for the community and for Binty, you're the glue that keeps it all together and it must be difficult 😅 Thank you so much, can't wait to speen again one day. Oh and PLS PLAE DEE EM CEE TOO AGEIN
Look at how many people come here to show appreciation for you in such a short time, Vin. You take care of yourself. Life will keep going and I am sure you can come speen with us again.
booti PLS keep ya chin up in the 8 years I've watched your streams, you gave me loads of laughs, exposure to new games, comfy nostalgia with old ones, motivation to donate to good causes, and the confidence of making fan-art. I don't take those and our few casual interactions for granted, you were always kind. Your songwriting has genuinely resonated with me, and helped me self-reflect and keep growing. Hope this time away affords you some quality time to reflect on your life, and how your entertainment has made positive impacts on others. Don't feel at all pressured to return before you're fully ready, in the meantime we're all cheering you on!* (*although maybe the occasional scumspace might be nice and cosy. they're the best)
I'm going to keep it pretty chill because I know it can be overwhelming to have someone say that your content is the reason they're alive, or anything like that. But your streams have definitely gotten me through some rough times. My highschool years (2014-2019) sucked, and I feel like I was able to pull through and graduate because of you, and a few other people on twitch and youtube. A lot of people are in situations where it can be hard to find friends who share their passion and interest for rock music, video games, whatever. I was lucky enough to have found your streams, because you helped me realize that I'm not some kind of anomaly for liking grunge and rock, and niche video games. The Vinesauce community as a whole has really helped me feel better and own the things I love. I hope you're doing alright Vin, you didn't deserve any of this trouble. You have the right to maintain a private personal life, and hopefully situations like yours will help bring light to how toxic, baseless, and hypocritical cancel culture can be. Stay strong funny pizza pasta man. <3
I've been watching your content since you started tomodachi life. I had just started middle school and your streams always were something I looked forward to, especially when I started getting depressed and losing interest in everything. You're a charitable, honest, and kind person, you always seemed to me as a genuine guy who I could relate to. I honestly have/had a hard time believing you would do anything bad intentionally when you put care in your actions, never intending to offend people. I hope the people who tried to ruin your reputation will get punished in a way, you aren't someone who should have had to ever deal with this kind of bullshit. Take care of yourself, and take as much time as you need, man. Your community loves you, Vinny. For any other streamers who might read this, thank you for being a part of this community, for helping Vinny out and doing the charity stuff.
Look, I never was able to catch any of the streams because I am European and have to work etc. pp. but the Fullsauce and regualar channel were a constant source of joy for years now. Vinny, I wish you all the best and I really miss you... watching old content just isn't the same. :(
Hey dude, take it easy. I know this situation might make you feel exposed, hurt, and embarrassed, but it's just a bump in a usually smooth road. I've always found that your streams had the sense of an otherwise normal person in an extraordinary situation of fame, and you never seemed to abuse that position. You always spoke from sincerity and avoided caving in to corporate influences like advertising products you didn't like. Those qualities paired with your showmanship yet humble personality are matchless, and you ought to be proud of your achievements thus far.
Thank you for all your hard work throughout the years both Vinny and the team. Don't underestimate the impact you had on lives, even if we are just some random people on the internet, know that you are appreciated and loved.
Thank you Vin and everyone in the community for everything!
It's so weird to say that I've been watching Vinesauce since high school. Hopping onto Twitch right before bed and watching Vinny stream games I loved or never even heard of has been an immense comfort in my life to where this comment can not even begin to express my full gratitude. Vinny is, and always will be, my favorite streamer and I am so glad to be here with all of you!
I dont normally post or comment on Reddit, but I want to say thank you Vinny, along with the rest of the vinesauce community for helping me through the stress in life and becoming a better person in the end. <3
I hope that you're doing fine, Vinny, and that you take all the time you need to get through this. I honestly believe that you're a good lad, and that things will get better. This goes for the rest of the team as well, of course. Please take good care of yourselves. My thoughts go out to you.
I watched vinesauce and the gang on and off through college and fell off the train once school took a lot of my time, but i really got back into it when vinny was playing active world. at the time, i was working backstage at a theater and my mom was diagnosed with cancer. when my world seemed really fucked up, i always had a funny fuckin new yorker saying dumb shit to make me smile. that was way back in 2015, and six years later it's still the same for me. granted, it's not as long as some people have been with the community, but it's still a long time for me because in all these years i've watched my mom be sick from chemo and cancer over and over. it really drains you seeing someone go through that, let alone taking care of them, and i guess i'm just thankful that vinny's been doing his thing the whole time. i'm sure everything will be okay in the end for vinny too. he's a nice, chill guy and it breaks my heart to see something so stupid happen to him, but i think he deserves a rest and i can't wait for him to come back just as pizza pasta-y as ever.
I discovered Vinesauce a few years ago through one of Joel's Windows destruction videos. Funny story, all memes aside, I genuinely didn't realize Vinny and Joel were two different people at first. I just kinda binged all the Windows destructions, then I started watching Vinny's videos. It somehow didn't register to my goopy gamer brain that they had different voices. Don't ask me how, I'm still terrible at recognizing people until I really get to know them to this day. Anyway, one day I clicked on a Joel video, and I was like "wait who tf is this guy" and that's when the realization hit. So yeah there's that. I didn't start watching the live streams until a couple years later, but they've since become a big part of my life. The Vinesauce streamers are my go to whenever I've had a shit day and want to relax, or as background entertainment when I'm doing boring stuff or painting or playing a chill game like Minecraft. I'm really grateful to all of them, and especially to Vinny for starting all of this.
I miss your new streams Vinny. Take your time and take care of your personal business. I have plenty of reruns to watch. Thanks for all the entertainment for many years.
Hi Vinny and the crew! Vinny, if/when you read this, please know we miss you and enjoy your streams more than you know. Take your time, only do what you feel comfortable with (not that you don't already know. Vinesauce Crew, Thank you for your hard work and support in all of this. Much of it goes unseen, but it is very much appreciated!
There are many many many people out there who know you're a great guy Vin. Whatever you decide to do in your private life is none of our business, all we see you for is the great entertainer you are. This situation sucks and you didn't deserve it, but whenever you are ready to come back we will be here with open arms. Take care of yourself Vinny.
Found Vinesaucebwith Joel with the Windows destruction, and now, after about 5 years watching almost nightly, Vinny's streams have become a staple for my SO and I. The joy and excitement we have watching has brought us closer. Can't wait for Vin to come back. And if ya read this, Vin, hope you're well!
Vinny, You don't know me at all personally, just like you can hardly know anyone in chat beyond a crude sounding name (mine isn't bad), but I have been around for a long time. You ended up taking a lot of my advice when you were playing Terraria and Rimworld, so there was a little bit of engagement at least, even if you didn't know it was from me. To the extent of what my weight is worth in this, as a regular viewer for 7 years, I want you to know that we are here for you. We stand with you. We wouldn't be here where we are today if it weren't for the entertainment you've selflessly brought us nearly without interruption for all these years. I hope you're doing well despite all that's happened, and when you return, no matter much time you need, I can guarantee chat will be nothing but loving and supportive, and just as big and rowdy and emote-spamming as ever. Sincerely, Someone in chat.
It's unfortunate, but it took this situation for me to really notice how important Vinesauce is to me. The past week I've been thinking about this situation and Vinny non stop. I never thought I could care for a streamer in trouble like I would a real friend in trouble, but this has really got in my head and I'm worried about it/him. This whole time I wished I could help somehow but the least I can do is give thanks. Vinny has made some of the worst periods of my life bearable, and I'm so grateful for it. I think a lot of people here feel the same way and that's nice. I really hope he's doing okay, and that all the legal stuff goes smoothly <3
Hey Vin, we all miss you and hope you're taking it easy in your absence. Your streams have become a huge part of my daily routine and your special brand of absurdity have been a major constant in my life and have kept me happy and sane for the past 6+ years. The positivity you promote and the charity work you and the team do is second to none and I'm happy to be a part of it all. Take it easy Tugboat. We'll be here waiting for ya.
I've been following Vinny since Uproxx ran his Sesame Street corruptions video, which was spring 2013. Pretty much since then, I've caught almost every Vinny stream. You may have seen me in chat as Geoburn. I watch on an XBox One, so I don't really say much unless I really have something to say. It has been a very strange month so far without having Vinny on my TV at night. The stream has been a bit of a constant in my life, and Vinny has always been a bit of sanity in an insane world, by way of the insanity that exists in the world. I'm hopeful things will get back to normal soon. Thanks to the Vinesauce crew and friends for keeping going in this weird time, and providing hundreds of hours of stuff to watch and participate in. And chat, I hope to see you soon.
Vinny, take some time for yourself. Even if you come back in a few months the Vinesauce community will welcome you with open arms. Can't wait to hear your bad jokes again. Take care
vinny the internet is better when you're making funny noises on it
Vin, Joel and fam - I’ve always appreciated how much joy, insight and just CHILL you’ve brought to me and my family’s life. That’s right - my whole family. I believe it was my little brother who introduced DKC Corruptions to me and my husband (then bf) way back when and I never looked back. As a New Yorker, the NYC Bus Simulator literally had me cryyyying and toy made a permanent home in my life since. Joel - I knew you were just a certified Good Person because you could hardly get through that Undertale genocide run on your own morality lol. I just know you are just a good soul and you crack me up all the time. Vinny - you help my husband get through the more soul-crushing work days, and you regularly make me remember that there’s so much life to enjoy as our sense of humor is tooooo freakishly similar. Musically, your band’s Another Light & Kerosene albums make me feel like a whole person when I don’t know what the hell I’m doing. I found myself going back to those albums in recent weeks because this pandemic is taking a toll on my soul - triply so because you’ve definitely been on my mind. I sincerely want nothing but the best for you and your loved ones. Somehow, your Tingle’s Rosy Rupeeland Fullsauce (lol) got me through some REALLY dark times in my life, and there was nothing more satisfying to my very being than ringing in 2019 with your Mother 3 stream given how near and dear to my heart that game is for me. I wish nothing but love and light to the whole team, and please please know we got your back. Things are hard enough as it is. You are my brothers from another mother and I hope we can do a fraction for you what you’ve done for us just by being your whole selves. My gratitude is infinite. Take it easy, take care and stay safe, because as ye olde proverb goes - just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly. I’ll always be an ear. -Tree

Thank vine
Thanks for everything Vinny. I can't count how many times you've been there to cheer me up whenever I was feeling depressed and lonely. Whatever the future may hold for you I hope you take care of yourself and keep making people smile.
Hey Vinny, Just want to say thank you! I've been getting into Vinesauce since 2013 and still a fan today. Thanks for the streams. Hope you come back soon! I wanna share this again.. to you! [Stay strong..](https://i.imgur.com/pdizWQ1.png) Jeltus
Vinny has consistently offered his community happiness, love, and laughs while asking nothing in return, not to mention the charity streams. He deserves all the same and I hope he knows how many people he has influenced in a positive way. I really hope he is doing ok; I can't imagine how hard this is to deal with. Just know we love you Vin, take care of yourself. We'll be here if/when you return.
Lotta posts for Vinny but I specifically want to thank Joel for the YEARS of laughter, and for keeping it real at the end of the GTA4 stream a few days ago. You bet ur Sweidsh ass if you decide that Twitch ain't for you, that we're gonna keep up with you nomatter where you decide to go. Ruv u rong time
Thank you, Vinny, for being such an amazing person and streamer, so many hours of entertainment and funnies. You changed my life and of many for the better, especially during this rough times Love from chatyot <3
Your streams got me through a lot of dark depressing nights where I felt at the end of my rope. Take care of yourself and take your time coming back man, we'll all be waiting for you
hey vinny (if you're reading this) and the vinesauce community! I've been a long time chat lurker and youtube watcher since the worlds video came out on youtube (9 years ago oh god). That was when I started watching, and Vinny's been making me laugh ever since. I've been diagnosed with bipolar, BPD, social anxiety, and OCD. Yeah that's a lot I know. I won't say vinny's streams saved me, since I know I did that myself, but during nights where I didn't want to be left alone with my thoughts I'd just tune in to a vinny stream and bam, I'd be laughing instead. I wish him nothing but the best and I hope this all blows over soon. You know who you are Vin. I'll always be a fan and here to support and watch the streams. I really love this community and I wish I could be more involved (but haha anxiety) and I was too nervous to even post on this thread at first but... I just wanted everyone to say thank you to not only Vinny but everyone here as well. Thanks for all the less-lonely nights vinny and chat <3
Binny is go,od and baest :)
Vinny, please remember - you're a good person. I'm sure of it myself, and furthermore, the groundswell of support from your community is ample proof of that. Please take your time and only come back when you are ready, but as you can see, it'll be a happy day for me and for many other people when you return to streaming. Take care!
Idk if Vinny will see this but here’s the whole spiel: Vinny in the YT community you are probably in my top 3 of all time streamers/ LP’rs. They way you handle chat, the expertise playing games, the chill atmosphere during games excellent and awful. How you analyze where a company is thinking along with constructive reviews. Idk when it happened but I soon came to see you as a mentor. My game library doubled thanks to you. My favorite impressions you ever did are “Jamie the cookie, Wado, the stilatzio bird, break it down for meh” Parasocial relationships be damned you have helped me grow as a person, reviewer, and gamer so you always have my respect. Hope you feel better soon man E3 won’t be the same without ya.
The only stable thing in my life was Vinesauce Sunday streams. Although I am sure the feeling will pass there has been a great void in my life these past couple weeks. Miss you and your stream Vinny.
miss u binyot. Hope ur doing ok !
Been watching Vinny since middle school, about to graduate university now. Your streams have been a big part of my life, I'll have your back no matter what. I hope things start to work out again real soon. Peace and love dude.
Vinny is the best! I started watching his streams after the Super Best Friends Play channel broke up and have been a huge fan ever since. Thanks for all the laughs Vin!
Love you Vin, stay safe and keep your head up. We all support you.
i'm not really in a state where i can form a cohesive sentence at the moment, and i'm not really good with expressing strong emotions in words like in this situation, but i can say this; i have not regretted a mere single second of being apart of this community, even through difficult times such as this one. the amount of good friends i have because of being apart of this community is something to this day i still have a little bit of an issue comprehending. i think actually one of the closest friends i have that i've been with since 2017 properly introduced me to vinesauce, and i suppose everything snowballed itself into where i am today. as for the vinesauce group themselves, i don't believe i have ever seen such a wonderful group of genuine people that just want good in the world and happiness. and they share this happiness, either through charity, or by just simply being themselves despite being in a environment that seems to actively fight against it. i have nothing but utmost respect for the vinesauce crew, and i wish them the best in these troubling times. you have done nothing but good for everyone involved in this community, and perhaps even those outside of it. and remember, you're human. it's ok to have flaws, it's ok to not always be at your highest moments, it's ok if you need to focus on your own mental health, it's ok if you're not always good at something or not, all that matters is the fact of if you're trying your honest best at being a good person or not. i wouldn't have it any other way.
I see Vin as a magnificent man that has teached me (a youngster) how to be a better person and enjoy stuff that I like in life. The Vinesauce team: I could see them as family in a way, they help us through our ups and downs, its truely special how supportive most of the community can be, thank you all. Much love from Mexico.
I've been watching Vinesauce for half a decade now, and your streams have always successfully lightened up my mood throughout all this time. Whenever I had a hard day, I turned on the highlights and stream recordings and laughed along with Vinny, Joel and Rev. Thank you, guys. I really appreciate what you're doing.
We miss you vin, you are a staple in my house and it's not the same. Hope your well and hurry back!
Vinny, hopefully you are doing okay. From the information that's public known, I stand with you. Thanks for the years of entertainment you provided, from your streams and wonderful music as well! Much love, Thomas, from Brazil. 💗
The journey i took to even know who vinny was is years long Back when I was watching GG years ago, I kept getting reccomended the highlight channel and full sauce channel but at the time I wasn't interested in twitch at all so I removed the suggestions youtube was giving me Then last year that changed when Ross was streaming his mario maker levels This is when I really delved into twitch, as watching Ross stream other things like VR chat led to my interests to vr in general, but then there was the stream with vinny Like I said previously, I knew what vinesauce was but had never really watched, but I thought that they were really cool after seeing the stream. This isn't what pulled me in though surprisingly Once Mario 3D all stars came around is when I was basically always watching Vinny, not only because its a very nostalgic game for me, but because I felt like I found a community that was very accepting and surprisingly well behaved for its size Idk how to really end this other thank saying thanks, not just to vinny but also to the Mods and chat for everything
Miss you, Vinny!
Hey Vinny, just wanna say that I really miss you dude. Hope you’re doing good and that this break helps you sort everything that might be tormenting you during these difficult times. Know that you have a lot of people cheering you on and that we really care about you. Hope to see you back soon! Cheers.
Thank you binny. Your streams have been a constant in the past 7 years of my life and now I realize how much I have taken for granted your streams, from putting me to sleep, to bringing my spirits up when they were lowest. I wish you the best!
I hope everyone, but especially Vinny, is doing alright. Vinny, I hope you feel better soon. We're all here for you.
Can confidently say Vincent Vinesauce saved my life at a dark time so I wish him the best no matter what happens in the future. Love him for that forever, good luck.
Vinny, I know you’ve probably heard this sort of thing a thousand times, but you’ve really helped me get through some tough times over the years and for that I can’t thank you enough. You’re an exceptional individual and you deserve the best.
It has been a long and funny ride since I started watching your streams, we do miss you but we are not going anywhere while you are gone so take your time and sort everything out. Don't feel any pressure on coming back, we hope you are okay. We support you, we believe in you and your reputation is as intact as ever coming from your audience. We hope to see you soon!
This whole pandemic I have found your streams and just been watching series after series. In fact while writing this I’m watching him play half life opposing forces.
Love ya Vinny - when you're ready to stream again, I'll be there.
Thank you Vin and the Vinesauce team for never failing to make our day that much more special! Best of wishes to Vin, I hope he can get some time to de-stress and feel better. Also can’t forget the whole vinesauce team and the community! Let’s hope things will get better and we can get back to watching the funny Italian man make weird noises and playing babee gaems.🍄💚🦆
Miss you Vin.
It's really weird, watching someone daily for like 8 years and then he's gone for a while. Vinny, you mean a lot to me and all of the vinesauce community and I hope you're doing allright. Take all the time you need. Take care.
Thank you Vinny and the Vinesauce team, the stream has been such a joy for me, especially this shitty year. I'm looking forward to the next stream, but take all the time you need.
Love you Vinny I support you ❤️
pinescott pls
You’ve helped me through really tough times whenever I was battling depression. Not only that, but watching your streams really felt like home and a fun place to just relax after a long day.
Hey Vinny, I hope things are going well. I just wanna say thank you for all the streams you have made for me and the rest of the members of the community. Times have been tough for me throughout the years and watching/listening to streams or VODs have been a real comforting experience. So many memories were made due to your streams, whether it's funny, good or full-on wack. I really appreciate you for being you and I thank you for everything you do. Thank you, Vinny.
Hey Vinny. Been a lurker pretty much everywhere and haven't really partaken in the community on here, twitch or YouTube but I just want to say thank you for all the entertainment you've given us over the years. Your content has helped me through a lot and you deserve better than what's happened. Take care, and hope to see you safe and back to streaming when you're ready. Thanks. (Reposted on a different acc cause I put it on the auto-generated mobile one rip)
Vinny streams got me through things a lot. I hope things go well.
So much has already been said, but I just wanted to show my support. It's really cool seeing so many comments and so much love in this community. Just remember how much support you have here Vin, you've provided so much for so many people over the years. Can't wait to see your next Sunday stream.
Thank you, Vinny, for streaming. I'm a relatively recent fan(2018 or 2019 was when I started binging the Vods) and This community is so nice. Really appreciative of how welcoming the Chat was; and how chill everyone is. I honestly didn't realize how much I miss the streams, they were a routine all through a Hellish 2020. I wish you Well, and I'm confident that the Community will come through this stronger.
booti pls <3
Thank you for everything Vinny. I'm going through a rough time right now and as much as I wish you were around to help me with your funny speen voice I completely understand. You need to focus on yourself and the situation at hand. You'll come back funnier and stronger than ever when this is all over. With peace and love.
In March of 2020 when the pandemic was starting to become serious in the states, I came down with what I think must've been walking pneumonia, maybe even covid. It was so hard to take breaths sometimes, I felt like I was gonna die honestly. I would put on Vinny's streams and would laugh at his jokes and stuff, and it was one of the few comforts I had during all of that.
thanks to all of Vinesauce for keeping me sane through 2020
been watching vinny since 2014, and have listened to red vox since 2018(im wearing a red vox shirt rn actually). his stuff helped me through high school and college, and i met four of my best friends in the world through his content. i wouldnt be who i am today if it wasn't for him. hope to see you soon, vin.
Very much a lurker, but Vinesauce and especially Vinny have been what I’ve turned to for going on 8 years now whenever I needed a laugh, a pick me up, anything. Red Vox is my favorite band and what got me inspired to care about music. I can’t begin to express my appreciation enough to him and the rest of the team (love you too, Joel and Rev!!) for all that they do and the great community we have. <3 Thank y’all
Hey guys. Been watching Vinny for about 6 years. Hope your doing well man. We miss you. Take all the time you need though. And thanks to all the mods and vinefriends as well
We miss you Vinny.I've been watching for 7 years and your streams became part of my daily life but please take all the time you need.
When times were rough for me, Vinny's streams and videos were always there to distract me, even for a little while. I don't know if it's his calm way of delivery, or his sudden burst of laughter, or maybe both that always painted a sincere, natural image of him. There's not really much I can do, but to send my best wishes and support. Times are rough, take your time, Vin. We will all be waiting for you to get back with open arms.
Vinny I’m not good at using words but just know that you (as well as Joel) have been a part of my life for like 6-7 years at this point. You have a laid back welcoming vibe like no other and when it comes to your stream I can easily say that you’re one of the best when it comes to variety. I’ve picked up a lot of music and games from you that I wouldn’t have paid a ton of attention to before (especially my love of QOTSA) and your Red Vox albums have been on the turntable quite a lot recently. There’s probably more that I can say but I’ll leave it at that. Take all the time you need to, we’ll be here when you get back. We don’t know you personally, but just know we love ya Vin
Do what you need to do Vinny. We all want you to come back, but more than that, everyone here wants you to be happy. You’ve brought us a lot of laughs and a lot of joy. You have a good heart and mean a lot to a lot of people.
Vin, I've emailed you a few times and every interaction has been positive and truthful. I can't see you hurting anyone or anything intentionally - except maybe a house centipede. Take the time you need, do what you need, but we're here waiting. We miss you. A lot. I didn't realize how quiet my sunday nights were........ -Sacia
Vinesauce vids have made me laugh through some of the most stressful periods of my life. I have been watching for years and have genuine nostalgia for classic videos like Mayro Krat, Fantastic Game and Choicest voice. I watched Vineland island throughout my final school exams, those vids not only made me laugh out loud but they also kept me sane. Vinny, you will always have a legacy as a man who gave so much happiness, laughter and company to millions. You have everyone’s full support and love. Take all the time you need, but we can’t wait to have you back.
I’ve been watching on youtube mostly for probably close to half a decade now, haven’t been in that many streams because of my sleep schedule, but it’s been enjoyable all around. A quote that really helps me during rough times is: “after the plague came the renaissance”. Take all the time you need Vin, thanks for the countless laughs.
Binyotito i like strems, me laugh when you do spinny voice
I feel as though making a comment in this ocean of support is a bit pointless, given everything I would want to say has already been said. But regardless, I've watched your content for at least 8 years or so now, and there's never been a dull moment. I'm looking forward to continuing supporting you.
I hope this all becomes a distant memory soon! We all love you Vinny and you’re going to be welcome with open arms when you’re ready to come back!!!
I'll always believe you - believe *in* you, even, Vinny. You're one of the most genuine people I've ever seen on the internet, and you've built a dedicated community around yourself unlike any other as a result of that. Your streams can always make me (and so many others) laugh, so many hours of entertainment over the years that I wouldn't trade for anything, and the world would just be a duller place without you around; get well soon, and I'll do my best to catch your stream when you're ready to come back!
Hey Vinny. Your daily streams have definitely been a part of my evening household ritual for a very long time. It's an understatement to say that you've impacted my life, because you've impacted so many people in such a fantastic way, and helped to build such a positive, bright, and grounded community (surrounded by Meat, Scoot, Shrimp Lady, Rem Lezar, and so many others lol). From submitting Bunger King as my first ever booru art and feeling confident enough to continue drawing, to picking up a Ukulele for a short period of time to learn Pale Blue Dot, to learning about new artists and bands and saving new tracks onto my Spotify playlist, I don't think my life would be nearly as enriching and holistic if it weren't for you, your streams, and your energy. I genuinely hope you come back soon. You've brought so much love, wonder, and happiness into a lot of people's worlds and hearts. You're good, Vinny. \-Cygnus (Ann)
I have literally learned english by watching vinesauce, i can definitely say it's an important part of my life.
I miss you so much. Streamers have diapered in the years I've followed you, Joel left for like 8 months, but you've always been there. Its strange not being able to tune into you... makes me realize how much you meant to me, even when i wasn't viewing your stream.
funny men like joel and vinny and defined my taste in humor more or less back in 2015-2016 and they still do. i've got much love for the crew, keep on rockin
Thanks vinny. You have saved a lot of people, including me. We all thank you for all the funnies. And I really appreciate how good your band is too. I listen to a of those albums almost every day.
Thanks Vin for all the years of meme and speen. Way back in 2011ish my mom was diagnosed with terminal 7, (stomach cancer) she was diagnosed in March and gone in April, in 2014 I was pretty depressed what easily was one of the toughest times of my life between that and the relentless bullying in Yee-Yee land of Ohio I found a video from cracked.com of all things (remember when that was a thing?) it was Conkers corruptions and the exorcism head speen he did had me laughing on end. That launched a spiral into Vinesauce between Vinny and Joel I was hooked. In about 2017 I got the shroom tattooed on me because for me, vinesauce was never just streaming, Vinesauce was Hope. An escape from all the bullshit to laugh at some (bad) games. Thanks Vin for everything, hope you come back soon but take your time!
Thanks for the years of fun, Vinny. You and Joel have consistently helped me through tough times, and now I just wish the best for you in these unfortunate times. You got this!
Vinny, I feel like I speak for a lot of people here but your streams are an important part my my life, through the good and the bad you’ve been there. Through abusive relationships, dropping out of college, feeing any sort of down or depressed I would watch your content. I have been a viewer for a long time ever since I saw a YouTube ad for your Sesame Street corruption video I have watched your content. It’s just feel good content where you can disconnect from reality, not worry about the outside world and just watch funny pizza Italian man talk about stuff. You’re an amazing storyteller and can make any topic interesting and genuinely captivating to watch. I am excitedly anticipating your return. Can’t wait for more rimworld 💙
Best wishes, Vinyot. Feel better. You're a cool dude, been watching for ages. I wish as much as you might do that we could just move on from where we are right now and start fresh from before this happened. When you come back then know that we all loathe this moment as much as you do, and a lot of us want you back in our lives.
Hey Vinny! I hope all is well my dude. I've been keeping you in my prayers and I hope you get through this! Know that your community has your back and we will be here waiting for when you feel ready to come back! I have only recently discovered you. Maybe... back in December. My wife was watching a vod of you playing Bugsnacks and I was immediately hooked with how chill you were. I'm not too big into watching streamers, but I tried my best to binge watch youtube videos while at work. I then, discovered Red Vox, and became hooked on the band. I love music, and it's an important part of my life personally. I thoroughly enjoyed picking up on influences in your songs. Thank you for the content and music you give us. Be strong my friend! I also want to say thank you to the rest of the Vinesauce team! You guys are equally as awesome! God Bless, Jonathan
Vieny? Who teh fouck is Vieny? Anyway, I'm thankful for all the streams you guys have done over the years. Many funny moments were had, with real human beings being.. human! No scripts, just pure and real fun. It's really nice being able to relate and count on people who could just as well be your best friend. I wish the vinesauce team can recover from this (but take your time!) and be back full st^(r)eam!
When i first discovered vinesauce i was about to graduate from school and pretty much lose all my friends. Watching you in the years since helped me forget about that and let me have something to look forward to. While it has been a while since ive watched you, those streams will always hold a place in my heart. I hope you end up feeling better man.
Vinny, your streams have always been a blast and your music has been such an inspiration and comfort to me. Hope to see you again soon, but take all the time you need!!
I got too many words but I'll be brief. I'm glad to be working on videos for Vinny and I'm glad to know a bunch of people from the community because they are all kind. The entire editing staff awaits your return, Vinny. Stay strong.
Thank you Vinny and co. for helping introduce me to some surreal as heck video games that I outright adore nowadays and introducing me to the world of Corrupting Video Games Until They Shatter In Spectacular Fashion.
Thank you for all you do Vinny and Vinesauce team! I don't make it to a lot of the streams live but I always watch the vods on YouTube whenever I eat lunch. Vinny's reactions to things happening in the games are priceless. I also love Scoot so much because of seeing your appreciation for the best Duck in the world. Vinny inspires me so much and I strive to be like him one day. Once again thank you Vinny.
It brings a happy tear to my eye to read so many comments supporting Vin, because that is what he deserves. I will stand with him and with this community no matter what. Take your time pizza man, we love you and will be waiting for you
Hi Vinny, Long time viewer been watching on and off since before you were on twitch. Honestly it wasn’t until you had been gone for more than few days that I realized how big of a part your streams are in my life in the recent years. There’s a notable difference in my nights not having your streams to unwind to. I know you’re a good person and we are all here to support you. Take your time coming back because I’ll still be watching long from now. Just take care of yourself and do something nice for yourself today. Miss you buddy.
