just watched the Watcher update/apology video and personally i think they handled it very professionally and very respectfully.
the radio silence the past few days was a little disappointing as it made it seem as though they were hiding from the backlash, but it’s clear they’ve been talking it through with one another rather than jumping the gun in trying to defend their decision like many other youtubers might have done
i hope none of our posts upset them too much as that wasn’t my intention nor do i think it was anyone else’s. but what i really hope they took from our concerns and expressions is that we’re here for them - we don’t care about massively produced videos and content, we literally just want to see shane and ryan doing what they do best and i’m looking forward to seeing what they have for us in the future ❤️
ive watched this video 5 times in the last two days and it always makes me laugh til i get a headache & i wanted it on my blog but didnt find it anywhere so guess i gotta do it myself
Only ghost files on it atm but Mystery Files and Puppet History are next. Watcher has back pedalled on deleteing all their free content to lock it behind a pay wall but y'know what? maybe I just dont want to give them ad revenue anymore, which is evil but screw them. Also they may still back pedal on their back pedalling, which is to many pedals anyways.
respectfully, this is a TERRIBLE idea and you’re about to lose the majority of your fanbase, myself included, because we can’t afford to eat, let alone subscribe to another streaming service
steven lim: we actually need more money for higher production value so that you guys have the best! and we're bringing back a super expensive show! for you guys, the fans!
