Kwebblekop basically took the concept of quantity over quality, except he eventually forgot to do either of them.

Kwebblekop's fanbase is the definition of "we didn't lose interest, we just grew up"

"I don't do it for the money I do it to make people happy" *proceeds to "industrial age" the process of making videos, to literally spam as many views out of people as physically possible, to make as much money with the smallest amount of effort*

I watched SSundee all through elementary and into middle school, but then I "grew up" and started to lose interest and watch other channels. I'm in college now, and it makes me happy to see that his channel is still going strong. I also just watched the og sky factory for the first time in like 6 years and HOLY SHIT the nostalgia.

Kwebblekop is a good example of how even the biggest KZfaqrs can become irrelevant out of nowhere

The thing about clickbait is... you're only gonna fall for it so many times lol.

14:06 sounded like a Dr. Eggman quote

as someone who’s watches more youtube than the average person over the years im surprised to have never heard of this guys until charlie talked about him

As someone who religiously watched him and his friends for years, it’s sad to see that they moved on from making content that the fans liked to content that made them money. Them turning family friendly was the beginning of the end.

if he doesnt care about the money, why not just give tiger his channel back?

nobody: .... Kwebblekop: The internet is a series of digital trashcans, let's fill them up

I completely agree with Charlie about having friends of different ideologies, careers, and backgrounds. surround yourself with people who knowledge, skills, and perspectives you lack, you can help one another grow

A world of AI influencers is even worse than the current world of horrible human influencers.

can we discuss how horrifying it would be if Kwebblekop's idea of a completely AI run youtube empire became successful

The sad thing about this is I grew up watching kitty0706...and Dasboschitt...and I never outgrew them even though it feels bad because they stopped making content...kitty for obvious tragic reasons and Dasboschitt because he sort of just vanished...really sad...on a lighter note at least Ross Scott is still committed to doing Freeman's mind all the way through...I love that series

his absolutely lack of self awareness is so hilarious to watch lmao, he presents bad idea as if its the best thing ever is so funny

I think the scariest thing of being a KZfaqr whose fanbase mostly consists out of children is you can't even tell once your fanbase is old enough to the point your content isn't their style. I don't even remember when I fell out with my favorite childhood KZfaqrs. One day I watched them, and the next day i didn't. It must be difficult

I admit, I've been a casual observer on the platform almost as long as KZfaq existed. I've seen top content creators up and vanish into obscurity overnight to the most obscure channels that trudge along for years with barely a blip on the radar. And yet, in all that time, I've never even heard of Kwebblekop until now.

I used to watch the trio with my brother back in like 2017 or 2018, we had a good time watching them. Now look how far has Kwebbelkop gotten to.

Creating an AI to have this puppet of a person that was once your friend is something straight out of black mirror. Dude is a menace

The way he presents his business of virtual KZfaqrs and how he acts all proud as if this is a good thing and how he keeps flexxing all his riches, he looks like a Disney Channel villain.

The fact that he felt the need to flex how much money he has shows that he was losing his touch

11:09 People wanted to see his kwebblecock in the shower ig

Charlie: saw a telescope. Also Charlie: Is that a Star Wars blaster?

Charlie's staying power is a combination of his inherent gooberness, authenticity about his opinions, and laidback content while still being consistent, which is better for more mature and thus more loyal followers

I remember Kwebbelkop disassociated with me back in my days of content creation for GTA 5 videos because he surpassed me in subs and views and i was essentially cut out of the circle of networking on skype with other gaming content creators. My channel was removed for 8 months due to a classic tale of youtube screwing their creators over and when i got it back, that 8 months of growth that he and other creators made while i was anxiously waiting to get my channel back, was enough for them to not care about me anymore. Being alienated by my peers was one of the many reasons why i quit I can see how the fame got to kwebbelkop and how it can change you as a person. Ah well lol

damn it really shows the difference between growing with your audience and doing the exact opposite

11:29 I’ve started to pick up that when people say “I *GENUINELY* don’t (insert thing they are denying)” they are usually lying

Charlie: "I dont know why people would only want to be surrounded by like minded people" Also Charlie: *exists in the charlieverse

SunnyV2 giving streamers their entire livelihood as a hobby.

God damn it Charlie here being like "3 and a half year long distance, thats history" and I'm over here at almost 5 crying

I love it. he explains the most evil corporate buissness idea and still thinks it's somehow being humble

He never changed, channels based on appealing to children are deemed to fail in the long run.

"Why would you want to be only around people who are effectivly just clones of you?" Validation.

I remembered watching the kwebbelkop/slogoman/jelly trio every day when i was 12-14, but i stopped somewhere down the line and forgot about them. It's really just about shifting interests and seeing their names brought back a lot of memories

charlie will never fall because he'll always have someone to make fun of.

hes so right when he said "his fanbase just grew up" i used to watch him everyday i got out of school and now i havent thought about him in like 5-6 years

Never heard of Kwebbelkop before. But just looking at his content, his downfall must have hurt him big time

he was my first youtuber. i had no knowledge of youtube and then got sucked into his channel it was all i watched. sucks to see him like this now.

10:52 the cologne “replica” is a designer cologne its named replica because it replicates a certain scent, its brand is maison margiela that makes the colognes “replica”

"We need to remove the human element" bro sounded like a villain 💀

A while back one of my friends hit 30k and when he did he decided to “clean” his friends list, which included me and a couple of his close friends. I watched him recently and discovered that all his older friends aren’t in his videos anymore, instead being replaced from some other people that conveniently have big channels

I used to watch them in my childhood but i stoped and watched different youtuber, its sad to see them like this now

'skipping ahead in the manga' lol, idk if you just coined the usage of that phrase in this video but i absolutely love that

Wow, this guys is the most “I will replace humanity with machines” kinda antagonist ever.

Kwebbelkop fell into a category I like to call “Trend followers.” There’s only so much a viewer can take before realizing the content isn’t going to be interesting because it’s just going to be whatever is trending at the moment. Muselk is another good example

2:54 yea because a lot of times specific types of games die with that generation unless something happens again to blow it up like it has happened with minecraft or fortnite

9:52 I find the penthouse thumbnail funny because it makes me think Kweb's a prisoner with that orange outfit who broke in to brag about it.

I love the fact that Charlie is so open about how being around like minded people isn't good. You need to see the world from different perspectives if everyone was the same this fucking world would be much worse off than it already is.

I completely forgot this dude existed. But the nostalgic train hit me hard

14:06 Kwebblekop: "From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me"

Man got the vibe of youtubers back in 2014-2016

Pewdiepie is the one person who i watched from middle school till now through adulthood. He maintains his audience because he grew up with US.

Charlie I'm 42 year old disabled Army Veteran who would actually watch you talk about KZfaqrs that I have never heard of or would ever watch. It's because you don't come off as fake or feel you need to flaunt your wealth that you have actually earned. Me and my nephews enjoy your videos because of your commentary and honestly if you became like that I probably would stop watching your videos. I think it's amazing what you have accomplished when most of your videos aren't much more than a webcam and using the same mic that I have myself with some screen captured shots thrown in. I noticed you don't even have to use tags in your video's which says a lot about how much of a presence you have on this platform. You also seem to have a really good eye for talented and skilled players for your Moist eSports venture. Stay the way you are man because you are doing everything right to set your self up for a lifetime of success in whatever you do. I can't see many people being as successful at doing what you do without having your wit and personality.

I grew up watching team robust, it hurts seeing how far they’ve fallen

One of the things that triggers me most in this world is when rich people own instruments that they don't even know how to play and have them as a decoration piece.

Kwebblekop's decline on KZfaq is such a shame. I remember watching his GTA races years ago and they were actually entertaining to watch. I guess eventually all great things must come to an end.

it just goes to show how quickly things can change and riding a wave of success is bound to come crashing down, unless you change yourself or change your audience

Bought the multi color moist hoodie. Cannot wait to get it. About time I got merch.

The fact that his downfall has only gotten worse is absolutely crazy

Charlie is like fine wine. Only gets better with age. Will never stop watching so not all KZfaqrs audiences grow up to stop watching 👍🏻

13:45 "we need to remove the human element". wow.

Man, his "presentation" was straight up from a bond villain

my vocabulary grows with every video charlie puts out. mans a god damn thesaurus of words that go heavily unused by this generation

It's really crazy how so many "Kid Friendly" gaming channels just flat out have been falling apart recently. These people haven't change how they make their content over the years and simply think when these kids grow up, new kids will take their place. But what many don't realize is what worked for the previous generation doesn't always work for the next, KZfaqrs need to constantly shift how they make content to survive, and there are very few that don't need to because of a dedicated fanbase. Kwebblekop however is an example of how your own personal feelings and changes in your friendships, business partners, and content so much in such a short amount of time will inevitably ruin you, and the sad part is that his friends are still very successful, and he threw them away trying to change. Now he's become essentially another Ricegum, constantly flexing all the money he's made over the years and spending it on things he doesn't need, getting into NFT scams and fragmenting his time so much his main channel is now dying. Let this be a lesson to all, don't become a Kwebblekop, don't think that massively changing your content in such a short period of time will work, Cause it doesn't. Don't think buying all these items and luxuries will make those losses go away, they won't. And, most of all, don't fragment your time and money into pointless amounts of editors and other projects you may never finish, cause in the end that's just time and money wasted, there's a reason some of the biggest KZfaqrs only have 2-3 editors and not over 10.

I like Sunny V2's vids because they inform me about the downfall of people I never heard of. _It's like being addicted to hearing about trees falling in the woods and I wasn't there to see it. I LOVE IT!_

Imagine being so unlikable you have to deep fake yourself a friend. Next level sad

‘As I was peeing, I saw it come up again’ trying to figure out the logistics of that

4:14 'Why did this number drop to between 5 and 15 million over the course of only a year? Woman.'

He sounds like a supervillain explaining to the hero his plan for total world domination by making an army of robots as the next evolution in content.

Surely it wasn't just me that kept thinking Charlies notifications were my own and wondering what on earth Rune light was

SunnyV2 made another video talking about Jelly’s downfall called *”The Brutal 92% Decline of Jelly”*

the way kwebblekop said he wants to be like minded with every youtuber is exactly how actors are, small minded, and in their own bubble. (not every actor but a good portion)

"Organic is cringe. Machines are the way I do it."- 14:00 Now if that isn't the omnissian creed speaking then I don't know what is.

1:10 penguinz0 is resurrected Abraham Lincoln

I pray to never see a video by sunny titled why Penguinz0 lost 90% of his audience that would be the worst day on youtube

I've always seen "high energy" content as the audio/visual equivalent of having someone repeatedly mock you and throw their fingers in your face. If I never have to hear " H E Y W H A T S U P G U Y S ! I T S C U C K H O L D G A M I N G ! " again in my life, it will be too soon.

9:17 that's the happiest I've ever seen Charlie

the “just grew up” analogy is true for so many youtubers. of course, there are youtubers that this does not apply to, in everyone elses, or my case. but i still check out the channels of youtubers where i grew up and watch some of the older content for nostalgia

When talking about I want friends who have similar interests I can see both perspectives. Because right now I have friends that I have basically nothing in common with and we still have fun but it would be nice to do stuff. I enjoy with other people every once in a while.

Charlie's fanbase is literally everyone who grew out of these falling KZfaqrs.

This is the life of a youtuber, you peak for the entire youth of a generation but once they mature the content grows old. Stampy is the best example of this

I love how the *YEEEEAAAAH BABY* Cadence is carried in every single enthusiastic exclamation 😂

was so tired of seeing their videos on home page was so happy to see his downfall

"I dont know why people would only want to be surrounded by likeminded people" It's a defense mechanism - it shows they're used to constantly being surrounded by conflict and they're exhausted. Being surrounded by likeminded people gives them a sense of assurance that they're actually doing things right after being constantly bombarded with the notion that they're constantly wrong

Meme community 9:25 note that down note that down

it’s so funny watching charlie call margielas replica fragrance line actual cheap replicas

kwebblekop basically went "i'ma add automation to KZfaq" with a straight face

14:44 "humans making videos is such a problem & not scalable so instead of having 1 person making content themselves, simply, we'll have a WHOLE TEAM of people who will make videos, make a script & customize a virtual character to be animated to the script & $h!t" yeah. so simple...

SSundee needs to be recognized for how long he’s stayed relevant through gameplays

this guy's robot yt channel idea is simply insane and terrifying

the amount of tabs this guy has open is astronomical

I remember watching him a lot between 2013-2016 and he legit had pretty good content, he constantly would think of new concepts in his videos that no other GTA 5 youtuber would think of, and that made him famous alongside being in his gaming group. You don't need to edit a million times in a video to make it good if the content is boring and repetitive, which most family friendly gaming youtubers don't understand. It only works for so long, until even the kids with the shortest attention spans grow up and leave.

Something I love about Charlie is that aside from curls and cards, Charlie doesn't really flex. Even though we all know he could if he wanted to. His relatability is one of his strongest draws.

I used to get recommended this guy's videos like crazy back in 2018 and I could not stand them

I like the runelite notification popping up mid video 🤣

It's amazing how massive your channel is but yet so pleasantly simple. Much respect to you Charlie.

Who tf is pebblecock?

crazy to think i watched him as a kid and had no idea what happened to him

I love how most of us only know kwebbelkop as Azzylands boyfriend and absolutely nothing else
