His primary YouTube channel, Flamingo, has over 13 million subscribers, and is one of the most popular Roblox channels on YouTube. As well as various other Roblox content, Albert is well known for his video series in which he investigates the myth hunting genre on Roblox. His videos on the myth community is one of the main reasons to this day the myth community has gained as much recognition on Roblox as it does. While Flamingo at the moment no longer makes any myth content, Albert has played a key role in the history of the myth community and his impact on the community has had a lasting effect to this day. ==History== mrflimflam first joined Roblox in March 2008, on his accounts "Crimson0" and "Streety". These accounts would be used by him for a long time, with him mainly focusing on the Roblox Skating genre. In 2011, he would create one of his first YouTube channels, titled "ROBLOXSkateMagazine", which featured him and his friends playing games, most of them being related to skating games. Later on, he'd move accounts to the "Alberts" account, and would create his channel "Albertsstuff" in 2012, which would be the beginning of his current YouTube career. He began creating content on this channel in 2014, with it mainly consisting of content about the Roblox game "Apocalypse Rising". After this, he would start creating Roblox Trolling videos, which caused his first peak in popularity. Eventually, in 2017, he would abandon his Albertsstuff channel, due to many of his videos becoming demonetized and therefor not being profitable for him. The reasoning for his demonetization was due to the more vulgar nature of his content at the time. After this, he would move on to his next channel, named "Flamingo". This channel would continue to do Roblox variety content in a similar vein to his previous channel, but now with a more family friendly nature. After moving channels he would also begin using the account "mrflimflam", which would become his main account for the foreseeable future. In December 2017, mrflimflam would upload a video to his "Flamingo" channel, titled "ENTERING THE DARK SIDE OF ROBLOX". This was his first video to ever feature myths, including [[45229]], [[Jewk]], [[Vault 8166]] and [[G0Z]]. After this, in January 2018, he would begin a series where he played various games made by the MUGEN group. One of these videos would feature [[DrMach]], as he had a relation to the MUGEN group at that time. He would also play [[CAROLlNE]] during this time, and would notably play [[RUST_010]] for the first time. He would go on to make several videos about RUST_010, leading to RUST becoming quite popular within his community and the myth community as well. In the coming months he would make more and more myth videos, including ones featuring [[G0Z]], [[Somatikos]] and various other popular myths during 2018. In June 2018, he would make his first video featuring the [[Roblox's Myths Shadelight Investigation|Shadelight myths]] titled "ROBLOX... AN INVESTIGATION.". He would also make his first video featuring [[AloneTraveler]] during this time, starting his rise to fame, among other videos with [[ZoruTao]], [[The Cole Family]] and [[The Cult Family]]. During the next year he would make more videos featuring many myths he helped popularize, such as [[Saint Abida Tribe]], [[ZalcusOfBlack]], [[StopLookingBack]], [[The Days Union]] and many other myths. In 2020 he would notably cover myths like [[The Smiles Family]] and [[Grocery Gang]], but would start hunting less and less during the year. This can be linked to a few things, including the exposure of [[Kazdam]] during this time, as well as him gaining a lot of hate from many in the myth community. This mainly came from older members who believed he had made the community worse due to him causing an influx of younger members to join, who were seen as immature and attention seeking. His last video before his hiatus from myths would be the finale of [[The Smiles Family]] saga. Unexpectedly, in February 2023, Flamingo would upload a video titled "Why I stopped Roblox Myth videos...". In this video, Flamingo would address his absence from the community, stating that the [[Kazdam#Controversy/Drama|Kazdam controversy]] was the contributing factor to him stopping his myth videos. He would also state in this video that he is not opposed to making more videos on myths and that he is still interested in the community. Later on in the same year, he would make another video about [[The Smiles Family]] and their game [[Night Watch]]. This would be it for his myth content until November 2024, when he created his video "Roblox Myths are BACK". This video would feature him playing the [[The Double R Bar]] as well as "The Homestead" by [[Cult Family Rebirth]]. At the time of writing this, this is his most recent myth video and it is unknown if there is more to come. ===Controversy/Drama=== Albert has also been criticized for ignoring the victims of [[Kazdam]]'s requests to take down his videos on now controversial myths such as [[Chuck_Lloyd]] and [[AloneTraveler]], who are known throughout the community to be owned by pedophiles. He has also been criticized for presenting misleading information regarding the Kazdam drama in a video, and still being friended to Chuck_Lloyd even after Kazdam was exposed. It has been alleged by baddieblood and [[RAAAAAGGGEE|Taphies]] in a twitter post that he still has contact to [[Universities]]. They claimed along with a long list of other things that they confronted Albert and even after the confrontation he still hasn't taken down any videos regarding the now controversial myths, even after reading threads with [[Temprist]], as the videos continue to platform them. He has also been criticized for being used by particularly larger myth group owners to promote their myths such as [[G0Z]] and the [[Roblox's Myths Shadelight Investigation|Shadelight]] myths, among others. A previous helper to Albert, and now a known predator [[Universities]], admitted to sending him myths for him to use in his videos. He is also criticized by some (primarily older members of the community) for causing the influx of younger players to join the community during 2018, in turn causing myths and myth-related places to be raided by his fans. Albert is often criticized for his immature behaviour in serious situations. ==Appearance== Mrflimflam occasionally changes his avatar, however what is considered to be his main avatar which he has stuck to for over two years, is a character named 'Cleetus'. Cleetus consists of peach-toned skin, the '[https://www.roblox.com/bundles/284/Penguin Penguin Torso]', the '[https://www.roblox.com/catalog/3767402997/Cleetus-Overalls Cleetus Overalls]' suit, the funny '[https://www.roblox.com/catalog/27134344/Goofball Goofball]' eyes, and the '[https://www.roblox.com/catalog/45941192/Laid-Back-Cowboy Laid-Back Cowboy]' hat. The outfit is well-known by almost everybody in the ROBLOX community and a notable amount of people copy it. It is also the avatar he primarily uses when myth hunting. ==Personality and Traits== Albert is well known for having troll-like behaviour or acting childish and rarely ever acts mature in myth situations, often doing goofy voices. He also often makes alternate accounts so he is not stalked or harassed in-game, but usually has to keep making alternate accounts due to Albert exposing his own account by using them in his videos, such as ihatemyson which he used to investigate [[RUST_010]] before switching to his main, Mrflimflam. Albert will usually get scared and scream a lot when someone or something appeared in front of him in most of his videos, including myths and troll videos. While recording meetings with myths on camera, Albert investigates myths with somewhat respect. Because of his large following and his status as a popular YouTuber, he tries to avoid crowds and annoyances. Due to this, he usually goes into private servers or meets up with the myths he interacts with with the server locked. Albert has opened up to his fans on twitter that he had depression before. ==Trivia== *While there is no real title for his myth hunting video series, he frequently uses the term "Dark Side of Roblox" in reference to his myth hunting. * The thumbnails for Albert's oldest myth videos are based of the thumbnails for the popular show Buzzfeed Unsolved. *Albert was uninvited with [[Speedy2662|Speedy]] from [[Masqueraze|Masqueraze's]] Masquerade and were replaced with [[G0Z]] and [[MartinCult]], due to being disruptive. *Albert himself is not a myth, but has solid ties and relations with multiple myths including [[Chuck_Lloyd]], [[G0Z]] and his assistants, [[Goldity]], [[RUST_010]], etc. *Albert is the first person to meet [[Goldity]] in game. *Albert has played a key role in a number of popular myths, typically playing the role of what some may consider to be The Protagonist. **The reason for this being Albert's role as a popular Youtuber, being a means for myths to convey their story from the viewpoint of a main character to a larger audience, as if their myth were a film. **Myths that Albert has played a key role in include [[The Smiles Family]] and [[Roblox's Myths Shadelight Investigation|The Shadelight Investigation]]. *He made two joke myths called "[https://www.roblox.com/users/955594775/profile Demonboy8929381]" and "[https://www.roblox.com/users/1022366604/profile G0RNX]". **G0RNX is a parody on [[G0Z]]. **He did not create G0RNX, he confirmed that a friend gave him the account. *As of 8/16/2020, Albert has cut ties with RM due to [[Kazdam]] being exposed for pedophilia and abuse. *Albert used to swear in his videos in "AlbertStuff", but as of now, he doesn't and deleted most of his videos in AlbertStuff. *Flamingo had another account for myth hunting at one point named, "Ihatemyson". *Flamingo gets called “fat” by almost every myth. ==Gallery== {{TBA}} ==References== [https://albertsstuffs.fandom.com/wiki/Albertsstuff_Wiki The Albertsstuff Fandom Wiki] [https://youtube.fandom.com/wiki/Flamingo Flamingo's Wikitubia Page] [[Category:Myth Hunters]] [[Category:YouTubers]] [[Category:Flamingo Related]] [[Category:Contentious Users]] [[Category:Robloxian Myth Hunters Related]] [[Category:Inactive Hunters]] [[Category:Temprist Related]] [[Category:Grocery Gang Related]] [[Category:Kaden Fumblebottom Related]] [[Category:Enszo Related]] [[Category:G0Z Related]] [[Category:The Smiles Family Related]] [[Category:Cult Family Related]] [[Category:DOLLOR TREE Related]] [[Category:Glory Era Hunters]]
