Inactive Subs Dilemma

Hello everyone! Soo I am in a bit of an annoying predicament here and was wondering what your thoughts were on the matter. I've been doing Youtube for roughly a year now and have had a fantastic time producing content (Minecraft Mod Showcases), but recently I've began to notice I've got TONS of inactive subs. Current I'm sitting at 1200 something subscribers, but only get 50ish+ views on each video. After some research into it, I do believe I know where most of those came from. I've had numerous mod showcases/tutorials that have gotten featured on websites like Skydaz and other various mod pages which have netted me thousands of views on those videos. I'm currently sitting at nearly 200k video views actually. But the problem is that the sub count is steadily rising, not complaining here, but the actual views are hardly going up.

Because of this, I was thinking about just starting a new channel and continuing on from there. I realize I wont have the 1k+ subs anymore, which doesn't honestly matter if they are not active, and I run the risk of active subs not following me over. Sounds like a great idea, but if I get another "miracle video" in the future, then the same thing is just going to happen. So I'm kind of at a standstill here. Thanks for your comments! :)

tldr; Have tons of inactive subs thanks to multiple videos getting featured on popular sites. Thinking about creating a new channel, but afraid of eventually having the same problem.
 
If you don't keep your content consistent you won't have active subs. I have nearly 300, and since I stopped doing things for about a year, nearly all are just inactive now haha.

That's the thing though, I've pretty much done the same content over the year. I've also never really taken any breaks, besides maybe one week.
 
Personally, I wouldn't create a new channel. Everyone has inactive subscribers, there's no way around that. I mean look at PewDiePie for example. 25M+ Subs, but 2-5M views on his videos. 20M inactive subscribers...
 
I think inactive subscribers are just completely unavoidable. I have 73 subscribers, and I'm thinking at least 72 of them don't really watch any of my videos.
 
Yeah, I wouldn't create a new channel, people are more likely to subscribe if you already have a higher number of subs.
