Some Support?

That sucks man, I watched the video and I don't see any reason for people to throw dislikes at you. Maybe it was someone with a grudge against you and a few extra youtube accounts. You can have several youtube channels attached to one google account and they can all like/dislike videos individually.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, I have a few people who I know who would probably do that
 
About 6 months ago, I started getting a couple of regular dislikes. There weren't any hate comments with them, just dislikes, and these have just been continuous, just two or 3, with zero explanation, and to be honest, these videos weren't anything that anyone could have had a reason to dislike, no controversial opinions or anything, and so I presumed it was just some people I knew personally doing it to spite me. I got home about 30 minutes ago and checked my video manager and all of a sudden my latest video had 7 more dislikes. Now if the views had gone up considerably, I wouldn't be happy, but I'd accept it a little more. But my video has no extra views. Just all of a sudden 7 dislikes, which means someones just clicked on to dislike then clicked off. I'm so angry and I really don't know what to do. This makes me want to take the video down, but I honestly thought it was a good, useful video about improving vlogging skills. I'd just like some support and some advice, because this has really ruined my day. I just don't know what to do.

Your video is good. It's a fact.
Do not hide your likes/dislikes, trolls love that stuff.
 
I find that there's no such thing as bad publicity. Let them dislike, Let them down vote. It still getting to the point where it all mattered. "You are being noticed." I'm not saying that you ignore the dislikes, just try to study the videos on it, see where you did wrong or maybe where you can improve and follow through with that.
 
Thank you to all of you who gave the video a watch and a like, it's definitely boosted my confidence about the video, and I will keep it up. All your advice really means a lot to me.
 
You can't change it and it happens to everybody once in a while don't stress yourself!
I had on all my vlog video's have 1 dislike and I know it's the same person over and over that is just bored.

ps. Any publicity is good publicity an it doesn't have effect on your ranking or anything on YouTube! Keep doing what your doing!

I'm trying my best to think positively about the situation, and really this post was just for help on what I should do about the issue, and not necessarily for the likes, but quite a few people gave it a like as a way of showing support, which I am grateful for. I didn't mean for the post to come across as asking for likes, so I'm sorry if that's the impression it gave. But I do feel less on edge about the video now, thanks to this post, and it shows how supportive people on this site are. I'm truly thankful for everything that everyone has done and said about the video, it really does mean a lot, and it makes me feel more comfortable with the dislikes.
