[QUOTE=SweFox*;38046828]Isn't his fans people should complain about?[/QUOTE] Him and his fans. He doesn't have any shame--some people are ok with the notion of 'asking' for their views to be made popular or to be validated by something like a like or a youtube subscriber count. I know for a fact that I don't need any of that shit. I still make videos and do everything I do in my life for myself. The other thing is the kids--the pewdiepie clones, the DSP clones etc who just come along to YouTube and think they're going to make a quick buck and become internet famous from being a dumbass.
I thought the hate for Pewdiepie was exaggerated knowing how the internet works but I didn't know he was this bad

Wouldn't it be better to just stop watching him and be happy with yourself? You're being a dumbass for being a "hater", don't you realize that?
[QUOTE=Brt5470;38046845]As much as I don't like him, I don't blame him for continuing to do it. It's a business in many forms. People keep watching, why not expand on what people are coming for. And don't think of it as him being paid to scream. He's being paid for hits on his video per contract, he gets hits by his antics.[/QUOTE] Nobody can deny it He is excellent at what he does, but what he does is fucking [B]awful[/B] As long as dosh is coming in, doesn't matter what the hell you do

Fuck, I liked one of his videos today so people would be able to see my views against him and I got this in my inbox: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/OZpjh.jpg[/IMG]

Why did you like his video if you hate him so much?
[QUOTE=Nemisis116;38046885]Nobody can deny it He is excellent at what he does, but what he does is fucking [B]awful[/B] As long as dosh is coming in, doesn't matter what the hell you do[/QUOTE] Exactly. I hate what he's doing, but I don't want people to think that Youtube is illegitimate work because of what he's doing. Maintaining a YT channel takes a lot of work.
[QUOTE=SweFox*;38046922]Ah, you simply want to gang up with people similar to your views because you can't stand by them yourself? Why did you like his video if you hate him so much?[/QUOTE] As I said, so people would know my views about people like pewdiepie without having to make an entire video about them. I don't need to 'gang up' on people--I have my opinion and I generally stick with it, that is why people are interested in what I have to say. I don't have an American Express logo above my head. I have no financial interest in sharing my opinion about people or things. And really, I've been sharing my opinion non-profit for many many many years outside of games. That is why it has ended up in newspapers and on the BBC.
[QUOTE=pokemon mmo;38046898]No I'm not, I have reasons for being a 'hater' of pewdiepie and people agree with that hate.[/QUOTE] He's making serious bank, I don't think he gives one single shit about "haters", I wouldn't.
[QUOTE=laylay;38046949]He's making serious bank, I don't think he gives one single shit about "haters", I wouldn't.[/QUOTE] <IMHO> Well he can merrily go about his life being known as a complete dumbass who contributes nothing positive to YouTube and contributes absolutely nothing to the gaming community. He is making dime off other people's backs. I hope he gets run over by a train. I hope that one day history won't remember people like pewdiepie and their greedy moneygrubbing antics that show blatant disregard for the gaming community. </IMHO>

[QUOTE=SweFox*;38046987]You're seriously jealous.[/QUOTE] Man every post your argument gets worse.
[QUOTE=SweFox*;38046987]You're seriously jealous.[/QUOTE] Really? Fuck dude. If I ever stop in my life and think about being jealous of a guy who makes terrible YouTube videos in his fucking kitchen I think that would be the last few seconds before pulling the trigger... I've achieved a million times more than anyone like pewdiepie both IRL and online with the stupid shit I do.

Here is probably more accurate information for him: [url]http://vidstatsx.com/PewDiePie/youtube-channel[/url] Conservatively, he's making about $5-6,000 per day. And if the numbers are right and using averages, he brought in maybe $200,000 last month. He is making a ton of money, but most of what he's made has been this year, he's not making millions yet. His growth has been exponential the last few months which is why his numbers look so positive all of a sudden.
[QUOTE=SweFox*;38047016]Apparently, since all you do is spewing shit about people and how you are much better.[/QUOTE] I didn't even say much about myself. I just stated that he is a greedy money grubbing piece of shit--if you somehow took away from that that I am different to that, then I guess you must be right.

Wishing death on someone because you dislike their videos? Please. He made really good videos in the beginning, he's shit now because he got to many subs. But still, he shouldn't stop if it makes him money and hes gaining subs.

Because we all have different tastes. As long as someone has put in the effort to make something unique and true to what they believe--if they have sat there and given it there all then who I am to judge. But pewdiepie? He is just playing games that [B]other people[/B] made and overreacting like fuck. The best part is that the only conceivable reason someone would do that is for money. And that's all that he does it for IMHO. His videos show no effort, no artistic merit, no academic merit, no comedic merit. All he is doing is showing kids that the real way to strike it rich is to make shitty YouTube videos that you put no effort into. Unfortunately that's the fault of this world somewhat, but I guess life isn't always fair. Again that's all my opinion, and if I'm going to be very blunt about my opinion of pewdiepie it would still be: I hope he gets run over by a fucking train.

PDP didn't start his youtube channel for money, so you're wrong thinking that.
[QUOTE=SweFox*;38047158]Every LPer are playing other people games? That's why I think you're as bad as him. I don't like PDP, I don't wish him death just because of it.[/QUOTE] How is pokemon mmo as bad as him? Hes not great, but hes better than some 20 year old screaming into a mic about rape.

Someone I do like though is penguinz0: [video=youtube;7oaH3VighGU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oaH3VighGU&feature=plcp[/video] He doesn't have to attention whore the whole thing. He is actually funny and structured. Different folks, different strokes. The only reason I would wish death upon someone like pewdiepie is that that is unfortunately the only way he would stop making his videos.

[QUOTE=SweFox*;38047229]Why does it matter if his fans are gifting him games?[/QUOTE] Hey my fans gift me games too. Yet somehow I'm supposed to be jealous of pewdiepie? I was more saying why would I want to watch someone else play a game that I can play myself? It's not like he is someone known for something other than playing games.
PewDiePie is irritating. I hate it when people call me a bandwagoner for saying this as well. No, I'm not bandwagoning, he's just really annoying. And you don't need someone else to point that out to see it, he's so blatantly obnoxious. There are so many YouTubers out there who are SO much better and funnier than he is, who get barely any attention. It sickens me that this many people want to watch this crap over videos which are actually very entertaining. I would love it if someone like Northernlion had the views he had. Northernlion is actually funny, and never screams even in the most dire situations, he's generally a very entertaining Let's Player.
[QUOTE=SweFox*;38047229]Why does it matter if his fans are gifting him games?[/QUOTE] He's talking about how it's more fun to play a game than watch a guy playing it (and screaming about it) "reviewing the game before purchasing" doesn't count because most LPers do full playthroughs. I'd say the only times I watch people play videogames is when they talk about game theory and stuff like that (Egoraptor's Sequelitis and Campster's Errant Signal) or when the video is a compilation of funny moments in-game (Criken's Funhouse)
