So, call this a shock, but apparently a video I made six years ago (when I was still active on the MRT Server), has come back to bite me in a way that I’m apparently famous on Reddit.. somehow. And it’s also what’s been getting me subscribers on my main ‘BenieTheDragon’ YouTube channel (hence where the name came from, in VRChat).
I’m referring to this old video I made for Chief (back in 2013), where he couldn’t do his series ‘The Snapshot’. It was when I was still a moderator;
Since then, I’ve occasionally been getting views, likes and comments (even to this day). Again, it’s been six years since I made this video, and I’m still getting comments. …Why? Do people really like me and want me to actually do videos publicly, or is this all some kind of trick done by the government (to specifically target me out of the billions of people on this planet)? ..You’d be stupid to believe the latter (no offense).
But one response has stood out that keeps confusing me, how it claims I’m famous in Reddit. And just today as I was watching a random meme video, someone subscribed and said “your on reddit” (which is why I feel I needed to do this post).
There are multiple reasons why I’m receiving this ‘kind’ comment. As much as I want to believe “hmm, it’s just people being nice, nothing wrong with that”, my pessimist side feels this old video is being re-posted (twice) in the bad side of Reddit, where all the low lives hang out… especially with all the “r/wooooosh” comments I got after that second comment.
Why, and How go through my mind. But in any case, I have made the video unlisted to avoid any more confusion on my part (but you folks can still look and maybe help me figure out what’s really going on). Probably just trolls, and they just so happened to see my video being the only one I posted that’s public (as all of my game review videos are Unlisted).
EDIT: Making it unlisted and still getting responses, has proven my theory that the video has indeed been linked to Reddit (and more than once). Curious, I did a search on Reddit (both of ‘Benie’ and the video link), and I’m picking up nothing close to this. Very odd. ..I honestly have no idea what the fuck is going on.
Ehh, whatever. Not going to let it keep me up at night, because the responses stopped when I made it private (but the subscribers have not). But, let them. There’s nothing to see here.
