RiverCiver was a liked but controversial American player and YouTuber in Geometry Dash. He has over 40,000 subscribers on his YouTube channel and is known for his harsh, critical videos. He started the 'Thoughts On' series, a series in which various levels would be reviewed semi-seriously, which was a moderate hit among members of the community. He is considered a relatively good level creator, but only one of his 27 levels have been rated. Ironically, the level often considered his worst is his only rated level.
History[]
On October 26, 2017, he created a video saying he would take a short break from the community. He said there were multiple reasons but did not want to go into them. Three days later, he created four short videos with no meaning. Subscribers were confused and thought he had been hacked. He reasoned that he was done with the community and game. He has been inactive until February 27, 2018, when he uploaded a short and meaningless video. He would upload a similar video on March 10, with the statement 'possible soon.' at the end. This message may have hinted that he was returning, but it is unlikely because there has been no activity since.
On February 10, 2023, he uploaded a video explaining why he quit Geometry Dash.[1]
Controversy[]
Towards the final few months of the RiverCiver YouTube channel's Geometry Dash activity, he began shifting his content from criticizing levels to criticizing YouTubers. Though numerous people found his level critiques humorous and legitimately insightful, his YouTuber critiques received negative reception for the apparent sense of egotism that was present. He also attacked players like WimpTastic on his Discord server, where he was infamous for making inappropriate and racist remarks.
On July 16, 2020, he uploaded a video titled 'My Thoughts On 'Bloodlust' by Manix & More'. The video itself, however, mocked the death of George Floyd at the hands of police, which led to an incredibly negative reception from his fans and the destruction of his reputation. The video ended up being removed by YouTube for violating their policy on spam, deceptive practices and scams.
