Hey guys, so I thought I would watch BFvsGF's newest video, and in the video they mention their latest prank plan, which is going to be on the music business, and SOOOO many people are commenting on the video saying how they are just doing it for the money, and that there are better, more entertaining vlogging channels out there, and how they are unsubscribing!!! Has anyone else seen this? Or have you seen a hugeeee channel suddenly lose loads of respect/subscribers in one go??

I feel for them man, I think they are so entertaining to watch together! Sad times! :(
 
Youtube has gone to hell since Google bought it, seriously, not all it is is flame wars in the comments of videos and people accusing youtubers of this and that.
 
I have never experienced it myself, but my friend @Mark Robinson told me about these two channels where eventually both of them lost a huge amount of support for different things.

Mark, correct me if I make any mistakes.

Channel A was much bigger than Channel B. Both of them did videos with tips and tricks. A day after Channel B released a video, Channel A was pretty much replicate his own version of the video and upload it. The viewers caught onto this and unsubscribed from Channel A and subscribed to Channel B.

Channel B had a position within an area of the government. He needed some extra money and so did something which was deemed inappropriate for the position he held. The viewers found out about this and reported it to his superiors which led to him losing his job, and a ton of subscribers.

That is how I understand it.

As well as this, I know a lot of review channels, especially TotalBiscuit get a lot of crap for 'selling out' and lose a fair amount of subscribers for that, but they normally gain enough subscribers a day to continually show a gain in subscribers.
 
I enjoyed their channel too but ended up unsubbing a couple of months ago because I felt like they were losing there appeal to me. However this is a totally different reason for unsubbing than what you are talking about. Sounds like some haters lol.

Yeah, it was actually! :O
I know they did, but their 'plan' for YouTube hasn't really kicked in until the past few years.
 
I haven't seen the video you are talking about.....but recently I watched a video from a ranter, where he introduces his girlfriend in a 30 second video and doesn't really say much and kisses her in the end. People were going mad in the comments "go back to making good videos!", "we don't care about your personal life! Get back to the rants!", "It's sad that you have to tell everyone you have a gf!" etc etc. Granted this isn't quite the same, since it's not 'for money' but....yeah I have seen masses of subs turn on the content creators. I honestly believe though, that hard core fans will stick around. I am a firm believer that a Youtuber should be able to upload what they'd like to upload. (If it's safe, legal etc etc). The video from the ranter didn't bother me at all. It's not like EVERY single video he's going to make from here on out is going to be just that kind of video.......
