Of course it's mostly rumors. There are individual reports from H3H3 fans stating they were getting refunds for their gifted subs and people who are anti-Ethan and haven't watched the stream in years were receiving gifted subs.
I really think their viewership is low enough that the amount of subs bought on Monday was more than they could give away. They would have to toggle on the "allow gifted memberships" option in YT to receive them.
This completely disproves your point.
They used to watch because a lot of the anti-Ethan people used to be fans.
They’ve lost so many active viewers that the gifted subs outnumbered the current fans still watching.
They have millions of subscribers. Unless you are saying that have many millions of YouTube memberships, it is literally impossible for them to have run out of people for the memberships to go to. And if they have millions of memberships, they aren't running out of viewers. You are doing no thinking.
They’re averaging way, way less on their streams.
Literally, they’ve lost a shit ton of viewers.
I’m telling you, you’re missing a lot of context and lore here.
I know all that. You admitted yourself the subs can go to people who aren't actively watching. You said it yourself. So they aren't running out of people for the memberships to go to.
LMAO. This is who I'm dealing with.
Arent actively watching, but have actively watched in the past
Yup, which there are millions of. So they aren't running out of people for the memberships to go to. So they aren't being refunded for that. You said it yourself.
They do not have millions watching their streams. Go look at what they’ve been averaging for the past year.
Some of their fans have received refunds for the gifted subs they bought on Monday. Everything else is just conjecture.
Yup, which is why the gifted memberships are going to people who used to watch, like you said yourself. Which is why they aren't running out of people for the memberships to go to. Which is why that's not the reason they are getting refunded. Because you are making all this up.
You simply don’t know what you’re talking about here in regard to H3’s dwindling viewership and the weird ass subathon that happened Monday.
To untangle this one for you:
Kumikommunism is saying that any of the subscribers they still have, which is millions would be potential gift recipients, or that anyone who has ever watched the stream in the past even years ago is.
Meanwhile you are not explaining why that is wrong. Please explain why those people could not receive the subs.
The rumor is that YouTube distributes gifted subs to most active viewers that aren’t paying members yet. It’s rumored that their actual active viewer base is in the thousands, not millions.
There have been posts from H3 fans wondering why they are receiving chargebacks for the gifted subs they bought Monday. Some anti-H3 people have said they used to watch, haven’t in a long time, but received a gifted sub.
Some people are wondering if there weren’t enough viewers to distribute the gifted subs completely out. That’s it. I’m not making anything up, this is just what’s being talked about.
Jesus Christ, thank fuck for you. They were stuck in an infinite loop
I do. I just explained why you were wrong and you don't have anything to say.
