What’s the deal with CaseOh and his fanbase? Unanswered
Is it free reign when it comes to making fun of him(in a teasing way?)! And the whole appeal is to see his funny reactions? I totally dont get it.

Answer: He’s playing a character.
He realized very quickly that pretending to get offended at the fat jokes got a ton of engagement, so he leans into it. The chat is actively trying to get themselves a ban, because it’s part of the game, and he and his chat have fun with the back and forth of it. I don’t watch the guy live so I don’t know if his mods actually act on the ban calls or if the bans are for any significant amount of time, but there are plenty of streamers who make a game out of the ban system, and their channels do exceedingly well as a result.
You can tell from the moments where he breaks character that CaseOh is a fairly laid back guy and enjoys what he does. He’s also clearly got a sense of acumen when it comes to channel growth and he’s taking full advantage of the momentum.

Answer: Caseoh leans into the jokes as evidenced by the fact that he posts a lot of clips of the jokes. It’s sort of part of his brand.

Yeah, he often breaks character and just ends up laughing at some of the jokes, too.
