This is why I'm SCARED to collaborate now!!!

So, when I first started my YouTube channel I got a subscriber with over 8,000 subs and a few million views and who was also partnered with Machinima. I was ecstatic. This guy kept emailing and messaging me on YouTube asking to chat on skype. At the time I didn't have skype so I downloaded it. I thought it would be great to chat and collab if he wanted to. For one I knew it'd probably boost my channel and for another I thought maybe it'd help my fear of the mic. At the time, when he was messaging a lot I started getting a weird feeling about him. But, I was hoping it was just me being paranoid.

Eventually, I was able to skype with him. We'd planned on playing the next day. Unfortunately, I had a friend with leukemia get sick and put into the hospital. Of coarse I was going to go see her. And therefore I didn't get to play with him that day. The friend was doing well and so I had planned on messaging him and planning for another day to collab. But, I found a few bad messages from him. I thought to myself, "well this is odd that he's being so mean and persistent." But, I still felt like I needed to give him an explanation of me not signing into Xbox live and playing with him.

Sadly, 5 hours after my visit to the hospital to see my friend, she passed away. I was devastated and in no mood to explain at that moment. I went to bed and had planned on messaging him the next day. Now, I DO NOT plan on explaining myself to him because he has sent me so many bad messages. And thanks to him, I'm afraid of even giving anyone a chance to collab with. What on earth brought him to me to harass? I did nothing to him!!

Here are a few of the messages he's sent me. I've just ignored everyone of them. And have since Blocked his name.

Wow what a Douche-bag that guy was! Sorry to hear about your friend... Just remember for every bad person, there are still a plethora of good people who wouldn't do something like this to you. IF collaborations are beneficial to you, then don't quit. Unfortunately the anonymity offered by the internet can bring out the worst in people. I hope you just shrug this one off and keep on keeping on, if it's what you like to do don't be dejected. Success is the best revenge.

My dear, it is not that you should fear collabing. It's that you should understand that some people are douche bags. Your first collab unfortunately was with a douche bag. And he treated you disrespectfully, and acted innapropriately, don't let this cause you to miss out on collabs with good people. I thought for a second about showing you a couple of the collabs I've done just so you could see how some people really can get along and do great together but that would feel kinda spammy, my point is just, he was a douche. There are lots of douches on youtube, but there are also lots of wonderful people. The more you collab and network, the easier it is to figure out who the douches are. I'm sorry that experience left such a bad taste in your mouth.

This. Don't let the douche bags get to you!

Sorry for your loss :(
 
just be glad that this happen as soon as it did just imagine if it were to had happen later on, you would have felt even worse because then you probably had some sort of trust for that guy. Im just glad that you were able to see his true colors now than have to see them later. Also im really sorry about your loss, I've been through that and i now how hard it is.
