YouTube aventures part -45- Some fans act weird or annoying?

Have you ever seen a YouTube video of someone with a lot of subscribers and then in one of his or her videos this YouTuber is recognized and people are suddenly acting weird or annoying? It wouldn't surprise me because some people suddenly turn into some weird people that either want to get noticed in the video or others go out of their way to try and ruin the video so the YouTuber can't use it. So you have to ask yourself...

Why do some 'fans' act weird or annoying?

 I guess YouTubers are a bit famous, well that's an understatement when you look at certain YouTubers that have millions of subscribers and often get instantly recognized, so the moment someone meets a famous person then some people can't help but act weird. It's like meeting a movie star or a rock star in real life and this can be so exciting for some people that they start acting weird and maybe even annoying. But annoying comes more into place online, because people feel safe online so acting like a douchebag is easier for them and so more people will do that.

Perhaps some people aren't happy that the YouTuber isn't speaking to them or replying to their messages. You should keep in mind that when a YouTuber is recording you can't reply to every message, especially when you're talking about something and you have to stop every time when you have to respond to some random person saying hi. This might seem like the YouTuber is a douchebag but in truth he or she is just doing his or her job and when you do your job I don't think you like it when people are keeping you from doing your work! So in retaliation some 'fans' start being annoying to the YouTuber and try to get attention this way, not only is this frustrating for the YouTuber it also is annoying for the viewers because a fun video then turns into a annoying display of sadness if the YouTuber still decides to upload the video.

I'm glad I don't have that issue, when you have a very small channel people don't recognize you and you can pretty much record without having any incidents, at least not anything about people trying to ruin your video because they know you're a YouTuber. I guess that's a burden you have to carry when you get more famous online, people will recognize you and some of them will try to ruin your videos. Why? Well some people are just sad sacks of shit, I guess that pretty much explains it why they have to be like that.

If you do have a big channel or at least have some issues with people ruining your videos because you get recognized then I would suggest making a second or even a third profile just for recording and try to blur out the name of this profile so others don't know it's your profile. This way you should be able to play games without any issues from certain 'fans' and still have a good time recording and playing games!

Button bashing

It seems that more and more games want you to smash on the buttons of the controller, which seems like fun but knowing that this weak piece of plastic can´t handle much it´s not the smartest way to handle your controller. In the good old arcade days I could smash on buttons, ok nothing too crazy but at least those machines had a lot more resilience than these weak controllers we have now. You have to pay a small fortune for one of them and they fall apart with the slightest bit of force you use. After smashing a couple of controllers out of frustration I learned to be careful with them, but when games force you to be an agressive button basher it doesn´t really help. Button bashing is nothing new but I do seem to see it in more and more games, even games that could easily do without this abusive way of treating your controller. Instead of button bashing people came up with the idea to press a certain series of buttons in a sequence, I first saw this in God of War which was fun. But s...

Sinful Sunday: Why are you so serious?

When I play a game I don't want to be serious, I just want to have fun and relax. Honestly real life is serious enough and I don't need that in games. Who cares who wins or who loses, just have fun and that already makes it great! Unfortunately there are gamers that take certain games way too serious, so serious that they literally forget to have fun which is quite frustrating to deal with. These kind of players are so serious that they probably left the fun behind when they started the game. Sigh... Serious gamers are lame gamers? There is nothing wrong about being serious, but I think there is a time and a place for everything. When I play a game with my friends then I'm not being serious nor am I serious when I start up some random multiplayer match. Sure it's nice to win but it's not everything! Things become more serious when there is something at stake, for example in ranked matches or during a tournament. I understand that things are more serious there an...

Mortal Kombat X isn´t just another fighting game?

You´ve probably seen the announce trailer of Mortal Kombat X, then you probably also know that it shows two familiar characters fighting against eachother. At that point you´re probably still thinking that it´s just more of the same but with a better coat of paint, I understand that pessimist look and it´s not often wrong. But from what I´ve heard about Mortal Kombat X is that it´s going to be more than just a new game in the Mortal Kombat game series. What´s new? Apparently there will be more fighting styles for one character, giving everyone his or her own favourite style to use against opponents. There was something familiar in another Mortal Kombat game where they also had weapons in a fighting style, but this seems to go a bit deeper and more unique. Of course these are just words at this point, nothing has been proven just yet! But this would make it more fun to play against other people and see who masters the ultimate style, but I´m certain that there is a counter style f...
