Listen coyoteze, I don't really think many people hate pewdiepie AS A PERSON. They might hate his persona/content but not as a person. I see you in every thread and everything you think that people hate him as a person(I might be wrong but you always respond like you are doing now), when I really doubt many people really do. And I hate his content and his fanbase but I don't know him as a person so how can I hate him? (and yes, I've actaully watched snippets out of his most recent uploads and it is pretty much the same expect he did improve on not using rape jokes).
[QUOTE=Coyoteze;45147386]Fighting fire with fire, yadda yadda - yeah, it can, but to be honest some anger is justified. A lot of shit spawned from that video and a very out-of-context comment as well. I was being facetious though, I admit.[/QUOTE] What is a retsupurae?

He's probably a decent person when he's not making immature jokes about video games on the internet. In fact from what all I've heard about him he actually seems pretty cool. That doesn't make his "professional" life any less annoying and I'll criticize him for that all I like.
[QUOTE=mobrockers;45147492]What is a retsupurae?[/QUOTE] a youtube channel that is sort of like MST3K, they make fun of bad lets plays/games/kickstarters
Supposedly there was a glitch with youtube and his videos were being featured in nearly every country and not just where it was supposed to be just in Sweden, that's apparently how he blew up so fast. I'll try and find the video.
Lucky him.
I wish I was capable of making money from Youtube. But I don't think anyone wants to listen to my monotone voice while I suck at video games and play them with potato quality graphics.

[QUOTE=AntonioR;45147159]I don't remember if I ever clicked an ad on Youtube. I don't understand how do they even earn their money, who clicks ads ?[/QUOTE] Sometimes I accidentally miss the "Skip Ad" button by a couple pixels.
As annoying as I find him, he DOES help out a lot of indie developers and diverse charities. Good on him.
I'm so jealous in so many ways.
He is a really smart guy. You can critique his style, but the man knows his market very well and he knows how to deliver to them.

PEWDIEPIE IS A DOG FU- [QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;45147189]ITT people with [U]views less than 1000[/U][/QUOTE] [IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/111996868/2014/notme.JPG[/IMG] PDP is a fine chap and I respect his ability to produce digital content.
Also in vids where he was playing with SeaNanners I couldn't even tell it was him because he didn't scream nonstop or anything that I have known him for.
He seems like a cool guy, but I hate his style of making videos and his fans are incredibly caustic. That's not a reason to hate the guy, but I don't understand why he's so popular.
[QUOTE=Coyoteze;45147386]A lot of shit spawned from that video and a very out-of-context comment as well. I was being facetious though, I admit.[/QUOTE] did you watch the podcast they did immediately after that video? they clarify that they don't HATE him, they just think that he produces bad content (they used the term "vulgar" a lot to refer to all that rape shit he was doing at the time, which is perfectly valid) and somewhat admire his ability to sell himself to his audience. there's very few people they make videos on that they actually have a legitimate personal issue with beyond just wanting to riff on their shitty let's plays. in fact if he didn't make so many rape jokes at the time i'd almost go as far as to say that he wouldn't have been as worthy of note to them
Guy makes loads of money doing what he loves, sounds like a whole boat load of jealousy in this thread, he's a nice guy and gives alot of money to charity and spite his earnings, he is very humble about it, would you have liked it more if he was a complete and utter douchebag instead?
I don't see him anymore because he just plays game [B]I[/B] could play in a instant, I don't want someone to narrate it, and I don't really find his shit funny anymore.
heard he's a pretty cool guy
[QUOTE=spawny;45148116]heard he's a pretty cool guy[/QUOTE] If only he could be a funny guy too
[QUOTE=Bridger;45148225]If only he could be a funny guy too[/QUOTE] We're not his audience. His audience are kids. Kids with lots of free time that watch a lot of YT vids, which is why he has such a huge subscriber count. Just think about the stupid shit you liked when you were young. PDP's just a clown.
He's not the height of comedic quality, but he's a nice guy. People need to stop caring so much.
Just spam his adverts with tons of views so he loses the ability to monetize his videos after Google pulls his adsense shit put from under him. It's happened to other people.
He'd be a lot more tolerable if you could actually block all his videos. He used some of the most annoying thumbnails and titles to get to where he is today.
Pewdiepie is alright, as much as I wish that longer, more intelligent game-related content got that kind of reception on youtube (say, Campster/Superbunnyhop's videos and some LPs where the players know what they're doing and provice interesting commentary)

I could do the same thing if I wanted [sp]if people liked me[/sp] [sp]if I was funny[/sp]
I wish I could act like a fucking idiot on youtube and get tons of subscribers. Thankfully I am above degrading myself, even if it is just an online persona.
you know I can't stand more than this guy even Markiplier or whatever his name is my roommate watches him and its just constant screaming
