I have been attacked by Votebots, too

It did happen to me, incredible. If you could please go ahead and just once rate each of my videos fairly, that would really nice of you. Make sure to tell me you did, so I can properly say thank you.

Sorry to see this happen to another tuber. It has happened to me and almost all of my tube friends. Good luck with the new channel. Here's a tip buddy, leave your videos open for ratings for about a week then disable ratings.  This cuts the legs out from under the vote botters.

Thats actually a really great idea! I will do that, thanks.

Ja, das halte ich auf für am wahrscheinlichsten.. naja, ich mach ja einen neuen Account, dann auch mit "anspruchsvolleren" Videos wieder.

Psychomessiahs was my 14 year old me. I am now 20. I am not the same person anymore that I used to be. I am neither a psycho nor a messia of any sort. ;) The name just doesnt fit me anymore, at least I feel that way. i don't know, i guess I just need to burn the whole place down to start anew from the ashes from time to time haha. Sure, I will let you know when I changed.

[psychomessiahs]

I have just decided that I will change my channel, something that I wanted to do for quite a while anyhow. So you dont need to worry about rating my videos anymore. But if you need someone to rate others, you can still count on me.

You have been hit too? Damn.. Be sure to pass me a list of your friends who have been hit, then i'll do them the same favour.

"people who fixate on themselves as objects of hate are, in a way, reveling in their victim status." I couldn't agree with you more on that point, but I don't think that's what he was trying to do here. Again I have to stress, it's not a "big deal" for guys like us. For a guy with 200 subs, trying to get his channel going, it's a much bigger deal. As for your apology? Accepted, although not required.

[psychomessiahs]

I didn't take it for anything but that, don't worry, no hard feelings.

OK. I was a dick. My apologies. It is initially annoying. But after they hit me they never came back. And it made me realize how insignificant it is. Really. Liberating in a way.

But I do believe that people who fixate on themselves as objects of hate are, in a way, reveling in their victim status. It's really not a big deal.

Again, sorry for flipping out in your comment section. Apologies to Sarahon too.

"You do realize that downrating does not actually change the quality of the vid?"

True story.

"Tell me how this matters at all."

For guys like us? It doesn't.

"Were you getting on the top rated list? Does that even exist anymore?"

Maybe he was not and yes it does exist.

"There are more imporatnt things to talk about." Indeed. I agree. That's silly shit like this (that Youtube won't fix even though they can) is such a pain in the ass.
