Going from memory, the GP comment is from a Markiplier video where he created a "game" in which you choose what path to take. On the release stream he was asking people to "vote" which path to take, and IIRC it was by writting blue ball emoji or red ball emoji. People were banned and he took it personally. Contacted his internal youtube contacts and all. There should be videos about him talking of it.
