Normally I'd consider this conspiratorial paranoia, BUT... Ishiro gets views in the hundreds. He's not big enough to get noticed by normies or anti-comicsgaters. Its likely Mags, being the mentally ill narcissist he is, found and reported the video. Brian does have a history of reporting videos critical of his shit writing.

Their vids deserve better than that. They're pretty funny and high-effort. I recommend everyone who enjoys the "reviewing cringey comics" aspect of ComicsGate YouTubing give them a look.
 
Anyone find it ironic that Ya Boi released a video titled 'How to be Successful on Youtube' while his channel is collapsing and he can barely manage to pull 10k views on his vids despite having over 100k subscribers? Both Ya Boi and EVS are examples of what not to do on youtube. Both made their bones with fun videos trashing mainstream entertainment only to pivot to dull, soy-filled ramblings once they finished their first indiegogo campaigns. Meanwhile, channels like WorldClassBullshitters are continuing to grow because they never stopped producing content people want to watch.

For all of Zack's talk about being a hot dogs vendor, he never applied that mentality to his youtube channel. He's taken his channel and his audience for granted, and he's paying the price in zero channel growth and declining views. No one should take his advice on how to succeed on youtube because, let's be honest here, he's a failure.

I find it hilarious that reetarded people like Meyer and Sciver gives advice to people on how to youtube when their channel views and subscribers are complete shit. Complete unfounded sense of confidence.

Anyway, huge part of the their decline is that people like to watch genuine people or consistent on youtube. Once they sense your fakeness, they will get tired of you and go the other way. And the two managed to show their true colors, being assholes and just the same as the "SJW"s they "fight" against.

My only advice for "comicsgaters" is: grift really as hard as you can this year, this will actually be your last chance.

We call what we're doing now "ComicsGate." So it's still going, it's still a statement, it's still a movement.

But if ComicsGate was about making anti-SJW videos and trying to get Marvel and DC to fire Dan Slott and Heather Antos, yeah, that's very dead.

Is it? I still enjoy when he actually talks about Marvel and DC comics...I just think he's bored with them now. It sucks that no one cares about comics and that's literally what he's good on. Like the guy that used to fix phone booths.

Did you actually watch the video? He was pretty humble about his numbers and acknowledges he hasn't had much growth in terms of views recently. The title is a bit tongue-in-cheek - note it says "how to be semi-successful," not "how to be successful." He also has some rather smart advice about not making YouTube your day job regardless of how successful you may become.

This thread has become rife with autistic A-Logging of Zack whose greatest crime - as far as I know - was giving a softball reaction to Ethan’s book. Something we all knew would be the case considering they’re friends. I eagerly await getting a reply with seven paragraphs detailing his other crimes against comic-dom.

Except its not "rather smart advice." It sounds smart because you agree with it, but the fact is youtube is and has been a viable career option for thousands of people. Zack is just saying not to do it because he failed. His "advice" is nothing more than the arrogant declaration, "if I can't do it, nobody can." That's not smart. It offers no insights. Its not helpful to anyone. Its just the angry ramblings of another failtuber who thought he was hot shit because he was briefly popular 2+ years ago.

well, you have to give it to the guy, crashing his channel and views is quite a humbling experience indeed. But yeah, listened to it 2 times and all I got is ramblings of a mundanematt-lite. It also seems that he actually has no idea why his channel blew up and why it crashed.

Here's my youtube advice to him: If you have no idea what you are talking about, don't talk about it. You'll tend to spout stupid shit and turn people off from you

Anyone who tries to use the 3, maybe 5 years to avoid working by going onto Youtube instead is a moron anyway due to how often you'll plateau and collapse.

But then the people who do make it big enough to not work often fuck it up anyway.

Youtube, espically in 2020, is not a smart or viable career choice - for every person that makes it there are hundreds or thousands that don't. Additionally, very few people make it in youtube alone - with a large portion of people dual platforming (Youtube+Insta+TikTok for fashion, Youtube+Twitch/Mixer for gaming, etc) and generating revenue from thier audience (via Merch, Patreon, Paypal) and not the platform. Youtube (for anyone who made it) is just a small piece of the puzzle and only really exists because there isn't a true alternative.
 
I know this is in the A&H board, but this proves how out of touch these so-called "journalists" are when it comes to comics, let alone pop culture:

Ms. Marvel, as in Kamala Khan, is "the most important Marvel superhero of the last decade"? These people......

And they wonder why ComicsGate had the initial support that it did.

Best advice for him. I don't care about his views on movies, he has terrible taste in those. I want to see him sperg on bad comics. That was entertaining.

Honestly that title should go to Tony for the MCU, but whatever that website is almost certainly dying of irrelevance anyway despite desperately going woke.

Anyways, I did get my Black and White comic, so kudos to the creators; they were patchy with giving messages, but they released the product I asked for and it looks pretty good.

He gets 10% of his subs on most of his videos, thats not complete failure. you also have to discount all the subs he only gain as moral support after the fallout of his dark roast. He isnt doing well, but its just free ads for his comics at this point.
