Bullying.

IF YOU HAVE 1000+SUBS THAT MEANS THAT YOU ARE AMAZINGLY GOOD IN THE FIRST PLACEE!!!
WHY WOULD THEY MAKE FUN OF YOU??? AND IF THEY DO...THEY ARE NOT FRIENDS...
BUT YOU SHOULD NOT HIDE YOURSELF..!!! THAT'S FOR SURE
 
Hi guys,
sorry for the late replies! don't really want to quote all your replies and annoy you with notifications but the rule seems to be fudge them!

I love my friends and we are generally one big group of the same person but all have our other outlets, i do videos and enjoy being creative seeing a beginning, middle and end product, others enjoy boxing, football, golf etc where others like watching lots of films. Luckily for me i spoke to one of my two closest friends in the group and he said he watched them and actually enjoyed them so its a big big bonus! :D

As for my videos i will wait till the majority of the heat dies down from this then i assume we all find something new to laugh at then i will make my videos public again. I dont want to be silly opening a new channel and starting again but I was panicking about the whole situation yesterday and genuinely was upset about it all.

Thank you so so much for your help so far and from now on i will stop lurking the forum and post more because everyone is awesome!

Again, thank you!

Hello guys!

Long time reader but don't post much.

Soooooo I kept my channel a secret for a long long time, mostly down to the fact i'm part of a group of friends that are considered 'cool' we all played football for professional teams growing up but i'm a nerdy guy really. I've done computing in college and uni since i left school 5 years ago and my closest friends all did the normal things eg. sports, engineering, construction etc.

To cut a long story short my friend found my channel through a old Instagram account that popped up on his 'people you may know' area. This led me to panic and private everything in fear he would out me and id be the focus of some abuse and non stop jokes.
I've worked hard for my channel and gained over 1k subs with nearly 160,000 views, i don't want to shut my channel down and lose my work but i also don't fancy the non stop abuse that is sure to come my way.

My question to you is what would you do in my shoes?

Thanks a lot! :) Peace x

Listen here my friend. No matter what you do. No matter what you say. People will always talk about you whether it be in a positive or negative manner. Do what you want to do. Be yourself. Don't hide behind a fake mask just to satisfy a group of people who don't care about you. If he/they are REALLY your friends. They will support you and what you do. End of story. If they don't and harass/bully you just kick them to the curve. You don't need people like that in your life. I've had "friends" like that in the past and they never did me any good. Live your life however you please. As long as you're not hurting anyone else in the process do what makes you happy.
 
Not trying to be a bully but if you are THIS weak minded when it comes to something like this then YouTube isn't cut out for you sadly. You'll run and hide at the smallest things and YT really does test a person later on, hate comments etc.
 
Okay, there are three options... One: Kill and go to prison, this is one I don't recommend. Option two: Delete everything and let him rule your life... but option three is to just continue doing your thing, my personal recommendation.

I don't think your implications of OP being "weak-minded" was necessary. First of all, you don't even know his complete situation. There might be a lot of underlying factors that made him make the decision that he did that you would never know about. It's easy to cast projection when you want to get a point across. The thing is, no one here knows what the best approach would be for OP other than OP himself.

If you wanted to get your point across, you can actually be more proactive rather than saying "it's not for you." You can easily just say that in order to be successful in YouTube, you need to fend off those comments and instead of letting it affect you negatively, let it empower you to do more of what you love. Same message.

If you want to sugarcoat words and spend time trying to instill your "inner morals" into someone else, go do that to your kids lol or better yet, stay off the INTERNET if you are hurt by the way I worded it.


By the way, he replied with his situation ABOVE - you should learn to read - not sure what's funnier you spending your time to reply to me whilst not even replying to the OP himself. Please -- go away.

Whoa there, not sure what the point of raising the hostility will do for you, but it's your choice. There's no sugarcoating whatsoever in what I said. There's many ways to be blunt, you just chose the way you did. Not sure where you get the whole "inner morals" assumption. I'm guessing just more projections on your end. If you have to project to get a point across, then you're not understanding what I'm trying to say.

I did read OP's message and his responses. He laid out a very general story of his situation. He never went into detail about the consequences of him being "outted." You don't know nor do I, unless you for some reason know him better than I do. And if you were to comprehend what he was saying, he actually turned the situation of what might possibly be negative into a positive. Just as I would have suggested he do. Your whole message was absolutely unnecessary if he already had his situation resolved.

And if you're telling someone to go away because of simple words in response to you, you should then heed your own advice.
