If this is true then the dude obviously isn't aware of the masses of Youtubers who can only DREAM of reaching the scale of a million, and he's not aware of the high rate of pure LUCK that promotes his success. I'm not affected by any of his business so I don't mind if he closes his account or not, but if he does, it really seems to come from an upsetting attitude.

I can tell you haven't seen the actual video. If you watch it, he's obviously well aware that he's still getting more views than most. When he mentions how low the number is, he laughs and clarifies that for him, it's unprecedentedly low.

He says it is low for him because he has 50 million subscribers. Sometimes Markiplier reaches a higher number of views than PewDiePie, who doesn't even have half the amount of subscribers he has. Keep in mind I'm looking at it logistically, I'm not implying Markiplier is shit or anything, I actually like that guy. What I mean is, despite how many accounts subscribed to PewDiePie had gone inactive, getting the amount of views he gets should set all sorts of alarms, for him that is. I won't say some bold statement like "YouTube is trying to sink his channel" or something like that, but in evidence of the views he gets, his channel is slowly dying. His channel has a stab wound and is slowly bleeding to death, metaphorically speaking that is.

Seeing that video here, I thought the channel just called "Pewdie" was going to be closed.

Now all of them stupid news sites are going to feel stupid because they basically just got shit on by the man himself lol.

Cedur · Postby **Cedur** » Sat Dec 10, 2016 8:34 am

The news sites themselves aren't stupid, or are they.

It was just a somewhat smart marketing prank that (nearly) everyone fell for.

Fuyu · Postby **Fuyu** » Sat Dec 10, 2016 12:27 pm

The news had it coming for a long time now. To be fair though, chances are they don't care about that prank just like they don't care about PewDiePie to begin with.

Danny · Postby **Danny** » Sat Dec 10, 2016 6:30 pm

Surprise, it was all just a marketing ploy!

For those who didn't check YouTube, the YouTube staff is getting rid of the entire Annotation system in May 2, 2017! So after that date, no one can create nor edit new annotations in their videos. But, any annotations made in videos before May 2nd can stay forever!

How many are fucking pissed about this god-awful update???

Postby **ElectriKong** » Tue Mar 21, 2017 3:44 pm

Yeah does beg the question: How the fuck does that improve YT?

Postby **kr4k1n** » Tue Mar 21, 2017 3:59 pm

I don't really care since I don't use annotations that much. But I bet the people that use them often are gonna start complaining, no doubt. YouTube staff might be replacing it with a newer feature or something like that, but a lot of people are going to be pissed because they've been using them for years.
