There's a bit more to it than that. Maddox _really_ went off the rails when his friends realised how thin-skinned he was on certain topics (i.e. his girlfriend leaving him for one of his closest friends) and they could get a much larger audience by making fun of him than working with him, and he totally played into their arms with his LOLsuit.
> Both [Maddox and his friend Kokkinos] performed at Upright Citizens Brigade in LA, sometimes together, with Kokkinos occasionally guesting on The Biggest Problem in the Universe*, a show Maddox co-hosted with his then friend Dick Masterson. After Masterson began dating one of Maddox's exes, creating an interpersonal rift that resulted in the duo cancelling their podcast in 2016, Masterson launched his own podcast, The Dick Show, on which Kokkinos was soon a frequent guest. As The Dick Show grew in popularity, Masterson and Maddox’s public rift widened, with each party’s respective fanbases joining in on the antagonism.
This is just the tip of the iceberg, check Maddox recent 3 hour video (!) on how he was allegedly stalked for years on end by Masterson and his crew. It's a wild ride.
