Shady Youtuber Practices

What I dislike is when people are like "Hey, I've not checkedout any of your videos but I am a new channel, so please give me a sub and I may sub back :D"
Yeah I got a lot of "Hey please subscribe" I'm like...maybe ask me to check out your channel and subscribe if I want to.:shifty2:[DOUBLEPOST=1387923235,1387923211][/DOUBLEPOST]
I agree that it is a bit over the line to send a subscribe link rather than just a link to the channel.
It happens more often than you think
 
Guy on my livestream said he had 500k subs and could advertise me. I turn these down because it's far too strange for a random guy to help me like that. Never get involved unless they already did it.

It's weird yeah. I mean it's possible that he just likes you and wants to help you out. You'd have to see if there's a "catch"
 
The worst offenders are those who have their annotation as a big massive click box (transparent) inside the video window itself, so if you click to pause, it instead subscribes you.
Honestly it drive's me nuts. It's presumptuous. Those people should lose a massive amount of subscribers and then maybe they'll get a clue.
