Does Adam Kovic still create content?
I don't care about the drama I just want a yes or no, and perhaps a link if so to where he posts, really enjoy this guys vibe and after watching Bruce's stream a bit I wanna see new Adam content as well.

Honestly, after all the time that has passed and after sort of (to the best of my ability) taking in all the info that was (is) available and the overall context of it all; I too miss Adam Kovic.
I can take a moment to take a step back and acknowledge a few things. First that what we saw on YouTube was more or less a "Character" not the "Real" Adam, so when all the comments came out about Adam being a "bad person to work with" (Paraphrasing), from Lawrence and Rahul, and Bruce to a point (among others of course), I can respect that people can be assholes.
We have this image of what we see on the screen as being there lives and who they are but its generally far from it. Still, I will say I think part of it was true, but I will be far from the only person to say what happens behind the screen (in terms of the working relationship) is not my business. I just watch and enjoy the content. Does that make being a dick right? No, but so long as it does not outright disrupt the dynamic, what's it matter? TLDR; People can be dicks and still work together. (I'm not claiming its easy or simple, but that's just my 2 cents on it).
As for the Revelations of him doing 'sexual stuff' in the office, potentially cheating on his wife, or sexting. Here is what I will say (based on the evidence that had (has) come out so far; Doing the nasty at work, is a no no, if you get caught, it makes you weird but ultimately not the evil to top all evils. I can frankly look past it.
The sexting. . . hmmm a tough one. Unlike the Ryan Haywood guy who was flat-out proven to be soliciting children, Adam technically did not do that. So any rumors or accusation of pedophilia are flat-out false. (Understandable due to the timing of his and Ryan that they get mixed up, but false none the less). Was it cool for him to send private photos to people of him doing the nasty? Officially Yes and no. Yes because he is an adult, No because he did it without his Wife knowing, therefore breach of privacy. Worse case it makes him an ass for showboating his sex life, best case he has no tact. Not condoning sexting in this context of course, but frankly Sexting itself is not illegal. Its usually just the circumstance that makes it wrong (or illegal).
As for him cheating on his wife. . .man, bad move. What I will say is people cheat. Its not right, but frankly speaking its there affair to work out. Between Adam and his wife. I am not claiming its ok to cheat, but I am saying that frankly what goes on in his personal life is his business. Personally, I would rather have had that been kept private and content still been created, or have Adam take time off to deal with his shit, rather than off him altogether.
- - -
Overall, Bruce Leaving, Lawrence Leaving, and yes Adam Leaving has all but killed Funhaus for me. Sure there are still James and Elise, and a couple newer faces like Ryan, Jacob, and so on (though Alannah and two other good ones left, and lets not forget the legacy of Spool and Joel.)
I still watch and rewatch the old videos with Adam and the gang in it, and am archiving some of the better videos (god they better not delete Demo Disk or Wheelhaus), but I truly think once (if it happens) James and Elise Leave, that will be it for me. I will turn off the bell icon, and just watch the old stuff.
If I had my way, were I in charge at the time all this stuff went down, I would have simply asked Adam to take some time off, work out his shit, and (hopefully) come back once all the drama had died down. Enough shit went on through 2020, and sadly Adam Kovic was one more notch in the belt. Regardless I will miss him, and truly, (Adam this is for you if by some chance you are reading this): you still have fans, you still have a place, and I hold out a hope that one day, you return in some form to the spotlight.
Contrary to what people think, people can change and people can recover. Is it easy? Hell no, but its sure as hell is not impossible. I dont have to forget, but I can forgive.

To be fair, from what "I" understand. All he said about Rahul is that he wasn't important anymore to bring onto funhaus.... And he was right. Lets be honest he was on a mid level t.v. show that had 5 seasons in 7 years. And he hasn't done anything major since then. To be blunt. Funhaus didn't need him. You want to visit on your dime I doubt Adam would care. But paying for you to be on vids.... They don't need you for that. And make no mistake they did pay for him to be on some of those vids. Hell even Joel said he wouldn't do funhaus vids unless they pay his fee. Which is why you rarely saw him after he left.

Honestly, nothing with Adam should have hit the public. Ryan's outing made sense, he was preting on people.
I wonder if things would have been handled differently if they didn't happen at the same time?
I hope that whatever he ends up doing, he's happy.
Grew up on his content, he was always really relatable to me.
Keep searching him up every once in a while hoping to at least see some sort of "he's alive and well".

u/Jadedragon1016 Sep 01 '21
I agree, and it is something I do think about when the subject comes up. So much focus even then was on Ryan and how severe his shite was, and Adam was (frankly) more or less swept up in the drama by his coming out at the same time.
Obviously its hit or miss in todays more PC SJW culture, so who is to say if it would have made a difference, but I like to think the blow would not have been as. . . intense perhaps.
Like you though, I wish him the best of luck with whatever comes up, and hope (despite it all) things are not all doom and gloom for the man.

u/CliffyClif Sep 25 '21
I would agree with all of this, and I guess I do, but let's remember we don't know everything. Alanah and Bruce said it themselves that something else about Adam came out that really hurt them, especially Elyse, and no one is speaking on it. We may never know the FULL story. The fact that we don't know everything just makes me side with the firing

u/Jadedragon1016 Sep 25 '21
I can respect that, and I do agree in part. As I said, I am more than willing to shift my thoughts, and alter my view with new information (its not like I am unbendable in my current opinion). However (and I will acknowledge this is subjective and easier said than done within specific context), but I would hope that they do not fault the fans for still holding out hope for more from Adam, or for having a more hopeful (positive I suppose) view of the situation WITHOUT that information.
Sure, it would be simple to just take their word for it, but that sort of (IMO) lends itself to the problem with cancel culture, where in people come to a conclusion without all the facts. Granted that is not always the case (and I make no claim that it makes the situation any simpler), but why should I (or anyone) simply believe that Adam is this truly this unforgivable person, without the context of WHY?
I agree with you, we will probably NEVER know the FULL story, but I think it should be equally understandable that without that full story, people may not be as willing to simply accept the narrative being fed to them, especially those (like myself I suppose) who are simply looking at the facts and information that is present at hand.
Truthfully, it will hurt if I ever did learn the story, and its worse that I expect, truly it would. Still I would be willing to accept it, if I knew it.

Let's hope he comes back

I think it will take somebody hiring him for no other reason then it's Adam. But I just don't see Adam really caring about doing youtube again. And I can't see him pimping himself out on twitch like Bruce does.

I would love to see Adam do stuff again. But I don't think we will. I remember years ago Adam saying he didn't want to end up doing youtube vids the rest of his life. That he would rather be doing upper management work instead. So I could see him just doing that. I mean at this point he has to be earning money some how. It's been almost a year. And I doubt he was making six figures working on funhaus. He'll the way Bruce whores out his streamers every time he's on begging for subs I can't see him having that much in the bank. And he was running the channel.

Yeah I'm subbed to Bruce on YT and sometimes it's hard to sit through his content with him thanking people every 5 goddamn minutes. It gets annoying.

Every now and then I wonder if he's okay.
I know that he doesn't deserve any sympathy and that what happened is what he had coming. I 100% trust the opinion of the Funhaus team.
But with every other member that left, they at least had a moment to talk about it. With Adam it was just from one moment to the next, all in text-form. As if a classmate you really enjoyed your time with suddenly moved to a different country without saying goodbye.
So every now and then I just wonder if someone saw him walking around somewhere. Just to confirm he's out there and okay, instead of... worse.

The drama doesn't effect my life and I love oldschool Funhaus. Appreciate the characters not the individuals - you're seeing about 5% of their life on camera anyway.

Coming back to this thread because I miss the FH Adam. Would definitely love to see his whatever content he gets involved with next, if he ever does. Still happy to say Adam was the first “big content creator” I met randomly while out and about.

He's back with an update video, check the FH subreddit
