  • Get a pop filter. God...

  • i hate ghost accountss!

  • you have a evil laugh at the end

  • i think that utube itself MAKES those ghost accounts..i mean..ive looked up alot of channels that hav virtually nuthing on them...thats weird..& even if utube does make them..y do they make them??? it a big mystery to me..id luv to know.

  • i hate those channels

    thats a waste of youtube

    i hate them

  • I'd appreciate it if you'd stop being a dick.

  • ur gay

  • so, what exactly is the diff. between subscribers and subscriptions?? I thought they were one and the same

  • subscriber=someone who has subscribed to your videos, subscription=someone whose videos you have subscribed to.

  • LMFAO

  • ... i like gorillas o.o?

  • ROFL lisanova got pwned

  • lmao nova

  • he has a point.

  • who would waist theair life to make 1000 ghoast accounts usaly it takes an hour to make 1

  • Haha cool video man. You sound a bit like kermit the frog :)

  • im not sure why people make ghost accounts...... but to my opinion

    they might be youtube fans or youtube staffs that are trying to give youtube more numbers of user so they get more money

  • I'm not sure what kind of recording technique you used for this video but whatever it was please NEVER use it again. Seriously, my ears feel like they've been raped. That warping sound snuck up on my ears while they were walking to their car and the warping sound grabbed them from behind, threw my ears to the ground and had it's way with them. It was horrific. My ears are going to need serious therapy now. Please never do that again.

  • I think the reason why BlowJob999 has so many subscriptions is because he just wants to get noticed on youtube. He's paththetic and all his vids are SHIT. He seriously needs to get laid,lol. Go ChannelReviews!! :)

  • Good point about ghost accounts. It's a pretty weak way of trying to criticize someone's account. I mean, I even have ghost subscribers and I'm pretty damn sure I was never featured on a sign up page, hehe.

  • all this time i thought people created ghost acounts and then subbed to themselfs.

  • Some people get accounts and never log on again.. I notice that too. BUt like I also Notice people who hate the most.. and talk shit.. have NO VIDEOS.. I notice that. alot

  • Great video. Love your work. I myself will subscribe back to all those who subscribe to me as a thank you. I see nothing wrong with a high number of subscriptions. As for the low number of hits on some of my videos it's simple, I barely promote them at all. Also, I've experimented with putting out 10 - 20 short videos in one day, that was a disaster. One well made video every two weeks or so is what gets people to watch.

  • Seriously!!! I mean, just talking shit about other people on youtube. Talking about other people who are talking shit about other people on youtube. Well, I guess I'm full of shit too, now that I'm talking shit about people who talk about people who are talking shit about other people, who talked shit in the first place.

    Fucking LOVE the internet.

  • oh shit!

  • Does anyone else realize how kind of retarded this is? Using Youtube to make videos about Youtube. It's about as sensible as a burping fart.

  • I have seen some of these ghost accounts. Thanks for keeping us informed as to the goings on with YT. :)))

  • i just got my first gohst account,im so proud!not really

  • the sound is crappy, cr. :(

    but you think it's possible that some jackass would have the time to make all these accounts to subscribe to someone hoping this someone would get accused of getting their subscriber stats doctored?

    and when the hell did youtube become accurate with the number of users? lol

  • Brilliant! Good job CRs. I like it. 5 stars!

  • ghost account.....what a piece of thrash

  • I love that one of my favorite top users actually comments on videos :-)

  • I never got signup page featured, but yesterday I deleted 458 ghost accounts (closed, suspended, abandoned over 3 months). I want my subscribers to more accurately reflect my viewers, and this was pretty much what I expected since I was habitually coming in at about 80% viewership. I never wanted to be signup page featured for the very reason of ghost accounts.

  • Good video, however I do disagree with you on one point. I have more subscriptions than subscribers, do I think it's sad? Hell no. I just don't create great content. The nice guys who subscribeto me do so, but I subscribe to whoever catches my eye. Maybe that's how bcj999 is? Not that I am defending him.

  • As one of these ghost accounts, I find this video very offensive.

  • dun dun dun..

    buahahahahahah

  • I've been watching YouTube videos for many months and just opened an account today so I can comment on some videos. Usually I will not be logged in when i just want to watch, so only very little of my activity will ever occur on my profile page. Does that make me me a sock or a ghost? I don't think so.

  • i agree with most of ur points and u bac them up great another vid keep it up

  • An account not used for 3 months could be deleted by YouTube. But as you said, Youtube might not want to lose account numbers.

  • good as always, channel reviews

  • You rock and i'm a proud subscriber of you.

  • "...that's funny

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahehh­ehhehhehhehhuh"

    that vid wasn't bad at all

    for an audio commentary

    most subcription/subscriber ratios are kinda messed up

  • a little rough with the mic there.other then that,nice job!

  • if you do not want the problem of ghost accounts that you did not create, block them to remove them

  • Why bother! Who cares. It is UNimportant.

  • in my opinion,to avoid bad publicity. no offense towards anyone i'm just stating my opinion

  • You're so fucking Anal!

  • end part was xtremely funny

  • this was funny (and interesting) but guess what, I have more subscriptions then subscribers (5) :D Is that sad?

  • thats funny. hope you make more vids soon. I'll keep watching.

  • man its just God damned youtube stop bitching bout it

  • ChannelReviews: I like you, but can you please stop defending/attacking and get back to reviewing channels???

  • get a new mic or back away from it

  • EVERYONE has ghost accounts..one of my 1st subs has just NEVER logged in...its weird...and i wanted to thank him...BUT HE DUZNT EXIST!!!

  • Yes, I'm a victim of the ghost accounts too... damn sign-up invite page. I didn't know that feature was dropped. Good vid. My only recommendation is to invest in a microphone anti-popper or angle the mic so its not straight on to your mouth.

  • ghost account happens when they want to mouth off but not use their main account, happens all day, so what

  • sound quality is very poor

  • It's called sock accounts not ghost.

  • What a bunch of crock. LOL. Wow. How many sleepless night did it take for you to come up with this blantant lie????

  • And it proves what? Everyone does that shit. And yes, you all do it.

    *Yawn*

  • Good video you are right there is no way to prove if ghost accounts are user created or not. I believe you though, but its still a legitimate claim for this guy to be making. Regardless if he is a jack off or not.

  • If someone doesnt like you, all you need to do is create ghost accounts and subscribe to someone. I am sure some jerk out there has done that. ~Raven

  • i dont have nay ghost accounts subed to me..

  • Did YT ever offer people on the sign up page for LisaNova ALONE at certain point in time ?

    It is understandable that lots of ghost accounts created at the same period of time subscrib the same set of channels, but if lots of ghost accounts subscrib to only one channel that would be very suspicious.

  • I know YT had MiaRose on the signup page by herself for 4hrs or so because, or so they say, they screwed up and didn't feature her for most of the 48hrs so they had her by alone for a few hrs to make up. Don't know if anybody else had this happen to them.

  • Hey CR if you made a video about someone else in a negative light and that person's response was positive? Wouldn't you feel a little uneasy? Wouldn't you sense an ambush even in the slightest? That's why i didn't respond. If someone made a video like that towards me, then being nice would be one of the last things I'd do. But that's just me.

  • Views are views buddy, and I gave you a chance to get more. My first instinct is to be nice so that's partly why I sent that PM. I am glad you didn't do it though, since I then saw The Blog Killers vid on you and yeah...no more Mr. Nice Guy.

  • Hey CR you'll probably be getting a response from me over this soon. There was a lot of stuff you conveniently left out that needs to be addressed.

  • hey the microphone isnt a penis, try to keep your mouth off of it.

  • Hey if you do type "YouTube Ghost Accounts" into Google it does come up with Lisanova's subscriber page, ROFL thats classic

    Lets see Danny try to defend Lisa against this

    Well said CR, you should also mention those who use friend bot's,

  • That whole ghost accounts thing sure is strange.

    ~L~

  • 'intelligent.'

  • Great video! blowjob999 sucks ass. It is remarkable how Google spiders and ranks things. It is a very intellingent search engine and even hilariously so, sometimes.

  • he wasnt kidding, i tried it and lisa nova was the first link. hahaha

  • FREKING LISANOVA!

  • If he hides his subscription page how do you know how many people he has subscribed to?

  • You can hide certain parts of your channel, but you can't private it. Go to somebody elses subscriber page and put in the user name of the other user and their subs show up. That's their direct link.

  • interesting, like the old days. I used to be subscribed to you until you went off on your Lisa Nova crusade, I hope this vid signifies a return to your usual standard.

    ez

  • lisanova will see this i guarentee it (and i no i spelled that wrong)

  • Where are you transmitting from? Sounds like

    this was made in a submarine off the coast

    of Easter Island.

  • An improved 688 class to be precise. Yeah, you think 56k is slow, try uploading on E.L.F. ^_^

  • ummm maybe because they signed up on a whim and then got bored and didn't bother coming back? maybe they forgot their login. maybe their house burned down and their computer was destroyed? most people aren't plugged into the internet 24/7 like youtube vloggers.

  • I want ghost accounts :-(

  • They ARE the "it" accessory for YouTube superstars these days...

  • And these people who got alot of subscribers and get featured because they cheated on subscribers and also Youtube should only make a rule for people who keep refreshing video just to get views. So yeah one view per account.

  • LOL, u Added the lisanova link in there... ahahahaaa

  • I think youtube should be more strict about Ghost acount for the sake of just getting subscribers. And they should make one account create per IP rule. To be more fair for the people who work so hard in their video and only get few susbcribers.

  • HOLY shit man,Ur Mic is too close to Ur Face. Is killing my Speakers.

  • It's true CR there are alot of people use ghost accounts to get subscribers. And I know somebody who got 1000 or more ghost accounts and thats Marriland.

    One of his fans admit that he created multiple accounts just to help him get alot of subscriber. So I agree with you when you say youtube are not accurate about keeping the numbers of users that subscribe to a channel.

  • Interesting video, not sure what was wrong with the Audio, that was odd. Hope all is well CR. Peace

  • Checked for myself, she is first.

    What a shocker.

  • If only youtube would expose people for the cheaters they are. The staff members are the only ones who can actually prove these things. Either that or have the accused get a lie detector test on video lol!

  • Oh shit! I agree with you! Time to punch myself in the face.

  • The laugh at the end was priceless. xD But again, this all boils down to that the Youtube staff won't admit to anything, nor will they do anything. Bloody hell.

  • ! haha I have more subscriptions to other people than subscribers to myself. Mind you it is a ratio of 5 to 0. I bet whilst you were makeing this you had your shades on, for old times sake.(did they go red?) decent enough video..Right im off to make ghost accounts and subscribe to my self. later I will be the most subscribed. Going to be a long night. Just jokeing.

  • hhhhmmmmmm...

  • YouTube should scrub old, abandoned accounts. I know it inflates numbers. And please, get a new microphone. You have an awesome voice, and the mic is killing my ears, sweetie!

  • Featured on my page. Sound was a bit scratchy. I had no idea bcj999 had such a bad rep. He seems to not know about the sign-up page at all. He seems to just want views and is not concerned about facts. Ah, well.

  • What are you talking about?

  • Is this Victor or just another loser troll. He's lied to his subs several times. He filed 15 copyright complaints against someone he hates, with the intention of getting him banned. After he's promised never to do it again. I typed this all out plain and clear..... Victor.

  • bcj999. Video communication is very hard. You do not know the complete story. Things change. And actuallly it is none of YOUR business. And we are not talking about me. We are talking about how your wreckless accuse people of things without doing any homework.

  • Dude seriously, get a life.

  • your a douche bag, rofl.

  • take the mic out of your mouth PLEASE

  • I looked up the same thing you did. The same thing came up. LOL!

  • rofl u wern't even joking. btw its werid i made a new account some one subsribed to me and had only 1subscriber and watched 0 videos.. werid

  • omg, u were right about the link..0_o

  • annoying sound of you having the mick to close to your mouth or smt. but other than that it was a good video, and the voice over thing works fine =)

  • Wow, man. You made a great video. O_O Even as a voice-over, you presented your cases and points beautifully!

  • man get a new mic or something. the sound is horrible!

  • BJC999 is a real loser.

  • You really are a loser bcj999,

    cause you deleted my comment on your video because I pointed out that you were not paying attention to what ChannelReviews said in this video,

  • Its true, Try to search"YouTube Ghost Accounts"

  • Ghost account should be banned

  • why is having more subscriptions than subscribers sad?

  • I was thinking the same thing as you. Not everyone is as fortunate to have a million subscribers, and many just like watching videos. This Ghost Account topic is trivial and pointless to me; you can't track the person making them and if someone wants to be a loser and make thousands of accounts to raise their numbers why do I care? If I watch their videos and they're crap, then the work/talent will speak for itself and I won't watch it and no one else will.

  • Actually everyone starts out that way, but if you are going to be criticizing people like he does you need to clean house too. Some users sub to tons of people JUST to get subscribers back. It's kind of lame if that is the reason you do it.

  • I dont know enough about him to say if he does it for that reason or not, but does CR have any proof thats the reason he does it? If not then the point holds no water. I sub to channels I like and if I end up with more than the subscribers I have then who really gives a damn?

  • Enjoyed your Crocker vid, btw.

  • Thank you.

  • LisaNova was a ghost huh?

  • The LisaNova thing was funny... :P I guess there are two different kinds of Ghost Accounts, though. Those like the ones you mentioned, and the other ones apparently made by the people they are subscribed to.

  • lols

  • that's funny with the google search at the end, but while on the subject... when you were ripping into LisaNova wasn't one of the things you brought up against her, that she had ghost accounts which you suggested she made?

  • I guess they sign up and forget? I know I have a few abandoned accounts on here because I wanted a new username.

    XD omg the lisanova thing made me laugh so hard.

  • LMAO great video.

  • hahahahaha lisa nova, u poor poor fuckin loser cheatin bitch.

  • Interesting. Also Danny you need to do something about that mic and the annoying static & plosives it makes--very distracting (- 1 star just for that) PZ

  • Smosh and the Hill88 have like the 12% of ghost accounts of all the ghost accounts in youtube.

    Lisa Nova 25% of suscribres are ghost accounts.

    And Yeah My Old Skool Words Lisa Nova and Danny Daimond Zukkz With a Z and K.

  • i never actively started to use my account for subscriptions until very recently. it's not even because i'm not technologically savvy, i just never saw the point in having to log in until i began using youtube more often. the people who get an account once and never go back to it usually just aren't nerdy enough to care about nine million features and options they can use. they just want to watch clips of puppies.

  • stevie ryan has a lot of those ghost channel at least at her begining she spammed herself to add some comments on her vids pathetic lol waste of time but more hot than lisanova

    i mean lisanova as such a disgusting voice because of her huge noise obviously;)

    until next time, thanks for reading

  • I want to get more subscribers. How do I do this? ChannelReview PLEASE go to my page and tell me what I'm doing wrong. Please? Pretty please?

    Thank you.

    -Heart

  • fix your mic!

  • +1. Or just not do audio-only vids altogether anymore. I always like your videos, even this one, but the quality level of this vid is almost painful to watch.

    Oddly on that note, keep the vids coming; always like watchin ur stuff.

  • nice job. once you get the microphone pops fixed, you will be golden. you can pop out these puppies right and left!

    are you going to use this style to review any channels, or are you done with that? just curious.

  • No. Reviews will be same as always and hopefully, with the same frequency. Thanks.

  • great videos as always

  • Smosh and the Hill88 have like the 12% of ghost accounts.

    And Yeah My Old Skool Words Lisa Nova and Danny Daimond Zuckz With a Z.

  • You'll get the tech issues figured out eventually, that last bit on nova was pretty funny. I gotta say though, I've got more subscriptions than subscribers...that's partially your fault though you bastard!! You pointed out some good channels, and there simply hasen't been enough people to recognize my brilliance...yet..hahahha! look forward to more vids from you man..take it easy...

  • yAY

  • Right to the point, as always. (-: I never understood the fuss about ghost accounts in the first place, since you can find them almost everywhere and there is no way of telling who created them, but it is always entertaining to watch your vids, so thanks.

  • gah.. the sound hurt my ears! :( but good vid :)

  • dude are u gonna defend urself by making a vid everytime a big guy or a unknown one accuses u for watever reason..?

  • No. They just throw out meaningless crap, but this was about something that I haven't talked about before and I do have a lot of blank pages in my subscriber lists. This ONCE, I had to respond.

  • Yes, good response, but you should have stressed the fact that MANY of us have these so called GHOST ACCOUNTS and the difference between GHOSTS and SOCKS. Some people are obviously confused.

  • yeah I got a few of those in my subscriber list, I just figured they were sock accounts made to blast my opinions and the individual can hide.

  • i don't get why youtube doesn't make subscriber counts more dynamic. remove subscriptions from deleted/banned accounts and accounts that are inactive for 3 months. would make the most subscribed accurate at least.

  • I'm one of your ghost accounts. I watch, do come back but I don't make videos yet. I hear both bad and good about about youtube and I wanted to check it out and watch videos before I did my own. I do watch and I do come back though. I am asure you, I am real.

  • i dont like ghost accounts because they steal good nicks !1111111111

  • I know, crappy mic, sorry.

  • i have never trusted YT's numbers...noticed discrepancies right away

    plz fix your sound

  • yay channel reviews! good to HEAR (haha) from you again :)

    LOL @ lisa

  • lol

  • Nice vid!

    Nice to hear the story behind some ghost accounts.

    Ps. Use a better microphone next time or add a wind screen.

  • Cool your back! Finaly! Ghost Accounts.. sigh, try and make more often, could use your vids :)

  • Thanks, I'll try.
