I have the utmost respect for the opinions of you guys here. I mean, it is largely due to your support that the channel is able to continue at its current rate, and I am EXTREMELY grateful to you all for that.

As most of you know, my goal for this channel from Day One has been to create a fun community. Everything else comes after that. With the advent of watching these Naruto videos, we've had a new fanbase arrive here. Now don't get me wrong, for the most part, they are definitely a good group. A few of you here I believe came in from Naruto fandom.

However, there is also a bit of toxicity from the fanbase that we hadn't seen before here. My question to all of you is, have you noticed this - and, if so - do you think it's enough of a distraction to what we prefer as a community to have me shelve the Naruto reactions and fill that spot with something else?

I am very okay with either outcome, but it is you guys and the gang who supports us through the Live Chats who are the very core of the channel, and I really value your input whenever I have a decision to make.

Thanks so much, Gang!  :-)

Personally I would be kinda devastated to see you stop doing Naruto reactions. I've talked to you before on how cool it is to relive a piece of my childhood by watching your reactions. It makes me sad how much these people are sucking the fun out of these videos for you. The anime fandom is so toxic. 😣

I have yet to see any negative stuff from the naruto fans from the comments. But I barely read them to begin with. But my opinion is that some of them are just trying to help move along. I watch you because of how genuine your reactions are.

Not a problem at all, Popo... That's why i come to you guys: If those reactions are fun and important to you guys, then they are fun and important to me! :-)

Thanks, Rocklee! Like I mentioned, I don't have a problem navigating the minefields, and to be honest, the toxic portion of the fanbase is clearly a minority. I just wanted to get you guys' feel on things. :-)

Honestly and sadly this was bound to happen as it does with every diverse group on the internet. You're not going to make everyone happy, you can't it's impossible that said if the toxicity bothers you to that extent it may be time to ban those who bring the negativity, or as a last resort stop people from commenting altogether (I hope it doesn't come to that.) I mean there are other ways to interact with you. I love your reactions and completely understand why you do things the way you do. But unfortunately the negativity is not going to go away, I'd say that's the downside to having a large subscriber base......

I think your Naruto reactions are great, I've seen a bit of negativity especially around the "longer/no action" episodes. I'm curious to see for your new episodes format, but like Trepis Fenris said, toxicity comes with a broader fanbase and it's not really controllable in certain scenarios. I'd hate to see the Naruto reactions go, they're part of my lunch break routine everyday at work! :p

Trepis and Mathieu, I'm onboard with you completely! As long as you guys are enjoying the Naruto reactions, they definitely aren't going anywhere. This was just a check-in to make sure any toxicity wasn't adversely affecting you guys and your enjoyment at the channel or in the comments section. -- As far as Naruto itself, I'm loving it! I just got done recording tomorrow's vid and Naruto just met Pervy Sage. I have a feeling it's not gonna take long for Jiraiya to make his way up onto our "Our Heroes" list!! :-D

Oh he'll be your hero VERY SOON 😉

I know first hand how the toxic minority of the Naruto fan base can be distracting having followed the manga as it was written and participated in the narutofan message board. That being said I look forward to your Naruto reactions and hate when the minority ruins things for everyone else. So if it isn't overly toxic/distracting for you, then I think you should stick with it. Especially since you seem to be genuinely enjoying it.

Looks like it's unanimous Curtis, the Naruto reactions stay, now what are we gonna do about Spaz Kid? Lololololol

SpazBoysComedy

LOL! I'm really glad to see that you guys are enjoying the Naruto vids. I'm loving the series, and knowing that it's something you guys look forward to makes it well worth any toxicity!... As far as Spaz Kid, now that's a whole different nut to be cracked! :-D

Late to the discussion, but I'm fine with the Naruto reactions. It's not Naruto who is threatening to murder my parants, hollow out their corpses, and sell them as carrying purses because I disagree that HinataxIno is best couple... Or wait, was that the Harry Potter fandom in regards to Harry/Hermione? Either ways, I can handle annoying brats and low-tier shitposters. I've been on the internet since I was 10.

To be perfectly honest, I haven't noticed too much bad in the comment section. Worst has been an argument over whether or not Neji is a prick, which I weighed in on... I've seen disagreement, but not any true dickishness.

Love the Naruto reactions in whatever form you choose to do em. I for one think this bestroute to go with them is Riff. I know people who are on mobile a lot aren't big fans of it but I'm sure a lot of em have PC's and Netflix accounts so they can watch em at some point when they get a chance. As for the negativity in the comments, I've noticed some but not a whole lot. If you decide to scrap the Naruto reactions, for now, that's perfectly understandable and I wouldn't hold it against you.

SpazBoysComedy

It's good to know that you guys haven't been affected by any Naruto-related negativity. The most important thing about having the channel to me is maintaining that community vibe I've always strived for. As long as we're all good with that - and especially since you guys enjoy the Naruto vids - Ship Creepy Sage will continue sailing. :-)

Don't let butt-hurt people over-salt a perfectly delicious cake. Ignore them and continue to eat your spaz-tastic cake.
