The Fine Bros

I heard about the other day on the youtube channel 8-bit Eric, that Fine Bros. banned one of his videos worldwide of him reacting to one of their videos. I say "WTF Fine Bros. , WTF"
 
they're losing nearly two subscribers every second right now

LOL

its pretty interesting to see just what time period their subscriber base is most active

I forget what time but I remember at one point yesterday evening it being like a drop of 5-10 subscribers per second. sometimes even peaking around 15
 
15 subscribers per second is insane.
Now I wish I subscribed just to unsubscribe, but it doesn't feel the same doing it now.
 
also there's occasional rises in subscribers and it just has me wondering if the ones subscribing are oblivious to what's going on, fail at understanding why this is an absolutely ****ty move on their part, or are just trying to be edgy
 
This is even dumber than when Jay-Z and Beyonce tried to copyright the name "Blue Ivy"
I'm laughing
 
Well that's cute of them to do, glad they're getting what they deserve.
 
It's pathetic. Reaction videos have been around for much longer than perhaps their channel has been. It's hardly an original concept. So why should they feel like suddenly it's their own idea because perhaps they do more reaction videos than others? It doesn't mean a thing. It's not like they've created and cultivated something so entirely unique and original that they feel if people were to start claiming that thing as their own, they would lose out on a lot of money. They were clearly making a lot of money in the first place, so why was there a need to put a copyright onto it? It's just greediness, and selfishness. How can they regulate such a thing anyway? Is the whole concept of "reacting" something now totally copyrighted? Am I going to get into trouble for Reacting (TM) to this thread? lmao it's ridiculous

Idk I mean I had never really watched their videos anyway and never cared for them that much but honestly who would have thought this is what YouTube would have devolved into. As much as I think that technology is an incredibly powerful and beneficial thing to our lives, it feels like any major 'YouTuber' is trying to shove some sort of product or sponsor down your throat. It's hard to just go onto YouTube and watch stupidly funny videos nowadays (which was what it was made for) without some sort of product placement.

While product placement can be a bad thing if it's constant or for no reason or simply because the youtuber is promoting something they do, I actually find product placement pretty good. It helps youtubers get funds for the videos we enjoy.

but yeah on a side not they're being major d-bags
 
Honestly, that's a horrible idea. Horrible idea. I used to watch them a looong time ago, but I stopped watching a loooong time ago. It wasn't even that funny :/
I'm glad they're getting the hate that they needed a long time ago.

I don't mind product placement provided it's not entirely in your face and as long as whoever is promoting the product is clearly promoting it because they DO actually like it. And you can usually tell who those more genuine people are. I don't watch an awful lot of people on YouTube anyway but there are a few people who I do want to support and if the money they receive means they can create more interesting videos and such for their audience then surely that's a beneficial thing. It's just the bigger YouTube people that really take this to their advantage and start to get greedy because of their 'fame' and promote products just for the hell of doing it.
 
lmao it's hilarious how many subscribers they're losing

i dont really care about them otherwise but they seem to b prettyyY ****ty
 
in other words..
R.I.P The Fine Bros, they aren't fine now.
 
It's literally dropping EVERY SECOND.

this is major??? has this ever happened before? at least for this long?
