Controversial Twitch streamer The Faithful Sheriff is at the center of a new scandal after YouTubers SuperMega shared what appear to be DMs showing the former DrWitnesser requesting an explicit edit of his peanut VTuber avatar.
The Faithful Sheriff, who rebranded from his previous identity as DrWitnesser in early February 2026, has been a polarizing figure in the streaming community for years. Known for preaching to children on Fortnite and making controversial statements that got him temporarily banned from Twitch in 2021, his recent pivot to a peanut-themed VTuber inspired by popular streamer TheBurntPeanut has only added fuel to the fire.
Now, the streamer is facing his biggest controversy yet after SuperMega, the comedy YouTube duo of Matt Watson and Ryan Magee, shared a series of screenshots that appear to show The Faithful Sheriff privately requesting an explicit drawing of his peanut character.
What Do The Leaked DMs Show?
On March 10th, SuperMega posted an edit of The Faithful Sheriff’s peanut avatar with visible genitalia to their X account, claiming that the streamer himself had requested the image. The post quickly went viral, gaining over 8,000 likes within hours.
The Faithful Sheriff initially responded by denying any involvement, writing in a reply: “I didn’t think I would have to post this, but apparently some of y’all are a little slow. I don’t know these people, and I never asked for this.”
However, on March 11th, SuperMega doubled down by posting what they claim is a full DM exchange between themselves and The Faithful Sheriff. In the screenshots, a user appearing to be The Faithful Sheriff allegedly requests the explicit edit and even sends a reference photo.
The screenshots have not been independently verified by GameFan at the time of publication.
The Faithful Sheriff Denies Everything
In a video posted to X on March 11th, The Faithful Sheriff denied the authenticity of the DMs and accused SuperMega of fabricating the exchange as part of a “smear campaign.”
“Look, I don’t mind a funny meme or joke about me here and there,” he said in the video. “But to take it so far as to double down on the fact that me, a Christian content creator, requested an X-rated meme photo of myself is going a bit too far in my book.”
He went on to threaten legal action, writing: “The account @supermega are 100% lying and if they keep telling people I requested this I will be pursing legal action for defamation.”
Community Reaction
The drama has split the streaming community. Many users on X have sided with SuperMega, pointing to The Faithful Sheriff’s history of controversy as DrWitnesser as reason to doubt his denials. Others have noted that SuperMega has a well-documented history of trolling and that the DMs could easily be fabricated.
“Whether the DMs are real or not, this whole situation is peak internet,” one user wrote in a reply that gained over 2,000 likes.
The controversy comes just weeks after YouTuber Kurtis Conner posted a video about The Faithful Sheriff’s rebrand that has since gained over 2.6 million views, bringing renewed attention to DrWitnesser’s past behavior including his use of racial slurs on stream and his comments toward Muslim children.
A Pattern of Controversy
For those unfamiliar with The Faithful Sheriff’s history, the streamer has been no stranger to drama. Under his previous identity as DrWitnesser, he was known for:
- Telling a Muslim child on stream that he would not go to heaven because
he isn’t Christian, which resulted in a Twitch ban in 2021 - Defending the use of racial slurs in certain contexts during a stream
- Telling a young viewer that Santa Claus isn’t real
- Spreading what critics describe as anti-LGBTQ+ talking points to
minors on Fortnite
His February 2026 rebrand as a peanut VTuber was widely seen as an attempt to distance himself from this history, though critics have pointed out that his content remains largely the same — preaching to children on Fortnite, just now from behind a peanut avatar.
What Happens Next?
At the time of publication, SuperMega has not responded to The Faithful Sheriff’s threat of legal action. The situation remains developing, and GameFan will update this article as more information becomes available.
Whether the DMs are authentic or fabricated, the incident has thrust The Faithful Sheriff back into the spotlight at a time when he was already facing scrutiny over his rebrand and his past as DrWitnesser.
