Answer to speculationzzzzzzz
1. Let it be clear this post was made in haste TBH. It was rushed but the other admins have found much more legit ones. Problem is I didn't have the screencaps on hand on my drive. Several people have access to COSTFU now but I'm the main writer, so if anything seemed unexplained or weird just ask/blame me for my inaccuracies. We do however collectively have hundreds of screenshots that are much more accurate. A few of them could be just an inactive regular viewer but they can come off a bit suspicious.
2. You mentioned how the math of bigger youtubbers. Maybe you misread what I was saying or I just really suck at explaining things (I kind of do) but the reason why they have lost many viewers I revealed in the post but you cut it out -spambots. Many popular youtubers have used this. Lack of actual views have dropped because of 2 reasons - the layout change and simply loss in popularity and youtubes recent wiping of old accounts. I might have left the spambot accounts (the accounts you can buy that were used and look like legit people) unexplained. Trust me I know my math and here is a short video that explains my reasoning. Any one skeptical should watch this
BTW that is thearchfiend - he is another popular youtuber and the subject comes up at the 2 minute mark I believe.
3. So after watching that video - yes they are still most likely socks. I have a good sniffer for this kind of bullshit. Like the video mentions you can buy old accounts. They will still have information on them and some of them do have old uploads - thats why I mainly focused on the channels activity. I could have been wrong with a few - which I regret but that will explain the favorites, likes, etc. Thats why you need to focus on the activity.
4. No I didn't make any accounts. Not sure how I'm supposed to prove that to you but I think the fact I'm here explaining things should at least be enough.
5. Also - there will be a follow up post because Marissa - someone who has gotten most of our information (not responsible for this post however) has found many twitter socks.
If you guys have any questions just reply to me and ask me. I'm all open for your critique or whatever you need cleared up. I can back it up.
