Someone Said This Was Copying PewDiePie....

    The forums have been archived. Please read this thread for more information.

    • I think the whole copying thing comes from when people do the following:

      Scare cams
      Youtube thumbnails of said scare cams
      Overly forced screaming
      Playing the same god damn games to death as other popular youtubers.
      Trying to make daft humour that in some shape or form feels similiar to another youtuber.

      Now the one about games can be completely ignored if you love the game that much but I couldn't see myself trying to play that Slender game over and over again like loads of people like to do. Even Amnesia looks like a one run through title to me.

      Maybe I am just talking a load of bollocks but I think the things I have mentioned are just what people do because they are inspired by the original popular youtubers like Pewdiepie. The problem is that because it is the internet people can just get way too opinionated. At the same time no one owns the right to only do those things. Just because Pewdiepie does scare cams doesn't mean it is just for him to do. The thing is though that it all depends on how you do them. If it feels to familiar then maybe people are going to complain. I wouldn't know because I don't do any of the things listed :-/ and I am sure you don't too.

      No one inspired me to do this though..all of my friends told me to do this because of what they see when we game togeather..i'm like this regarudless if i'm recording or not..all the scares, anger, and humor is an everyday thing for me..lol..i didn't even know about pewdiepie untill a few months ago..the only thing i used from him is what he recorded with because i couln't find another program that worked like FRAPs did..and i wasn't going to use a facecam untill someone watching my videos told me to on my second video...and i also hate slenderman...the games are all the same to me

      And i'm not trying to be mean with this..lol..reading back it kinda looks that way..just explaining how i started doing these videos and why
