#markpositivity

How has your guyses day been,hopefully good. Ever since i joined the movement,ive been s o happy! Look around,everyone else is too! Pretty much everyone who joins is happy.

Positivity is just that way i guess. Let's see... Everyone seems to be just as happy as me! Awe,isn't that great! So good to see some interaction between fans. Everyone, you can talk to me,i dont bite!

what,are you scared?

Maybe you don't understand. Are you just confused? Really,its okay. Keep trying,you'll get it. Not that i think its hard. Of course,i caught on pretty quick. Well,it was a little tricky,but not bad. Happiness is worth it. After all,who hates positivity? The answer is no one,silly. I dont think so,anyway. Someone else might,and thats fine! Happiness is a choice. Although,why would you choose sadness? Positivity is so simple! Positivity can make you happy! Everyone can be positive! Nobody needs to be left out! I will help you! Now,let's all be positive! Get together now. Try not to leave others out! Of course,try talking them out of leaving too. Unless they insist,which,i guess their sadness can't be helped. Some people dont want our pos i ti vvitttY

dont worry.

What do I like about these guys and why did I subscribe to them? Oh boy let’s see~

Jack’s a wonderful person to watch generally! He’s energetic, he’s optimistic, he’s thoughtful, he’s empathetic, and he cares very much about the community that he’s built up. He’s a great role model to look up to, and yet, out of the three, he’s also the youngest one (in years and career) to be doing this. You see, he’s the definition of hard work and great attitude can get you very far. He’s also the fastest growing one out of these three, and like Felix always say about him, he’s one of the kindest person on YouTube, as well! He’s a humble person, and he made sure to never forget the journey that took him this far, the journey that we all took with him. I love that he takes the time to always connect with us, and the fact that he always take the time to talk to us and answer question results in a firm grip on his community, the community that’s well-known for its incredible kindness that reflects Jack as a person himself. It’s also through this connection that we’re constantly reminded that Jack is a person just like us, and thus, we need to treat him like a human: with respect. Overall, he definitely deserves the 14 million subscribers right now, and I will continue to support whatever endeavors he chooses to face (like now. I’m rooting for ya, Jack!)

Next up, Mark! Oh gosh, truth be told, whatever I’ve managed to put down on here will not suffice the whole experience I had with him during JUST these past two months that I’ve been in these YouTuber fandoms. Simply put, Mark’s a complicated person and an enigma for me to understand. He’s also the source of all of my exasperation, even more so than Felix ever will be. But, despite all of that, if you ask if I will continue to stick by him for these months and years to come, I will give a firm yes. He’s managed to won me over, and truth be told, there were times where my views of Mark were less than stellar compared to right now. It was one hell of a rollercoaster on my ride with Mark, but I do not regret any moment of it. This man is an amazing human being, and to be honest, while he also has his flaws like the rest of us human beings (as he has come to admit often), his better qualities are something to admire greatly. I’m just so proud of him for all of the charities that he does for the betterment of the world, especially this last one where he managed to rally the viewers to raise $50,000 PLUS in just an HOUR; It’s no wonder he’s also known as one of the most generous YouTubers! I could say more, but right now, just know, it’s been only two months, and yet, it feels like I’ve been watching him for much longer than that. I’ve learn so much about Mark, and I’ve cried with him when he allowed his emotions to leak through for a video.

Finally, Felix. Believe it or not, I’ve also fell in love with some of Felix’s quality as a YouTuber and as a person. As a YouTuber, he does well for the position that he holds! He’s raised charities, and he also put together some events and specials for our entertainment. As the most subscribed YouTuber right now, I say he did his job well, and I’ll be honest. Better him having the seat of most influence (as the most subscribed YouTuber) than some other YouTubers. And that’s not to say he doesn’t have any admirable qualities, because he DOES. Felix, I say as a person, is very genuine when it comes to the times that it mattered. I know Felix knows that YouTubers (especially him) are gaining even more influence everyday (if the drama right now doesn’t diminish that...), and with this overblown drama, I’m sure he also realized with Mark that he has a duty of sorts. I’ll elaborate more on this on Day 6, but know, that I think he fully understands just how severe his job is. What he says and does matters, and with millions of people having their eyes on him daily, he needs to constantly be more self-conscious of his actions. Beyond this, he, too, is an amazing person. Again, he’s done charities, and he’s overall a very well-managed person in spite of the many duties that he’s acquired over the years as founder of Revelmode and such... Even so, we’re called to remember that he, too, is human just like all of us. Time and time again, the vlogs and talks that he does with us reminds us that he’s vulnerable to questions and concerns in life, too. In fact, they highlight the fact that his position as the Queen Elizabeth of YouTube is not a comfortable seat. Being a YouTuber for a living, in fact, is not a chill job for anyone AT ALL. But hey, it’s through these hardships that he reminds us of his genuineness and honesty as a person. He’s not afraid AT ALL to call out BS when he sees fit (the media) and I’m sure he’s not afraid to point something out for a person. He’s genuine as a creator, and that’s something to admire.

Idea from this lovely person and their post!

Okay, day one!

“What made you subscribe/what do you like about Mark/Jack/Felix?”

Well, I haven’t subscribed to Felix, because again, his style just doesn’t click with me.  I still support him and respect him for what he does, however.  I like how he’s willing to push boundaries, yet still be able to realize when he’s in the wrong and apologize for it.  He’s also a good person, and I respect him a lot.

I technically didn’t subscribe to Mark or Jack until recently, as I didn’t have the account to do so, but I’ve been watching their videos regularly since February of last year (one year here woot!).

I found Mark first, through friends that had been telling me to check out his channel.  I believe the first video series of Mark’s (possibly even the first video) that I watched was his Slime Rancher series.  I absolutely loved it, and him.  His hair was still blue back then, and he was wearing his turtlenecks and his sweaters and such.  He was funny, nice, and he had a great voice too.  I’ve been watching ever since. And he’s from the bestest state ever, Ohio.  Who needs LA when you have Cincinnati, amirite?  He also has ideals and ideas that I share, and he’s not afraid to state them.

Side note - I met the glorious, beautiful, and awesome @ed0398 through Mark.  We were sitting next to each other in 8th grade science class, bored out of our minds because while the teacher was awesome (bless u Mr. Lord), he had to go over things we already knew.  Ellie and I got to talking, and somehow Mark came up, and boom new best friend.  We’ve been besties ever since!  Love ya, bud. :3

I found Jack either through Ellie or through Mark, I can’t remember which.  If it was through Ellie, then she told me about the channel in science class and then I went and looked at it at home.  If it was through Mark, I was probably watching a collab video of some sort and I was like “who’s this green-haired dude???????” and clicked on his channel and then boom jacksepticeye.  Either way, I found Jack’s channel and loved it almost as quickly as I loved Mark’s channel.  He’s loud, he’s funny, and an all-around great guy.  He’s quick-witted and chipper, and he always brightens up my day.

Okay!  Day one done!  Six more to go!  I just hope that this spreads at least a little positivity around!

See ya at day two!

I’m doing these in order of who i found first >w<

Felix: He was my 2nd introduction into lets plays (myfirstwastobuscusbuthedoesn’tcountshhh) and i love his evolution on videos. I feel like they have really met me at every part of my life. Because when amnesia was popular i had time to watch longer lets plays, so i really enjoyed that. Then he did more random weird game, and now i feel like his videos are more like memes >w< which i friggin love. Actually last year, he is one of the only youtubers that i would keep up with all his videos. I love his sarcastic nature and that he doses apologize when he’s wrong, the fact he has the humility to own up to it is great. He really does have a special place in my heart

Mark: I love his childish behavior and just all around sweetness. He’s just a big bunch of fluff yet he can get so incredibly intense (either in rage or intelligence) when something comes up that he cares about.

Sean: Iove Sean I think thats the only way i can put him. I know a lot of things people keep secret from their viewers, but just his whole look at life, is nothing close the inspirational. I am a Christian, so i try to go out of my way to brighten peoples day and make them feel loved, but it is really hard. We have our own lives and when things arn’t so great, we sometimes tend to look inward more that out at other people. I do have a strong empathy for people but we all have out days. But the degree that Sean shows in his videos  (at least what i’ve seen with the cringe videos) is down right amazing. He is a really stand up guy and i just appreciate the crap out of him so friggin much. I could literally go on all day about him.

Yeah, why the hell not? I'm participating in this.

Day 1: What made you subscribe? What do you like about Mark/Jack/Felix?

Mark: Well, I remember first watching Mark around January 2014 though I didn’t sub to him until July that same year (wanted to make sure). He seemed really goofy and silly. Even though I was by no means an expert on games (and I’m still not), I liked how he broke down certain things about them. I also thought he was pretty funny, too. But I also loved that he was kind, genuine, and sincere with everything he did and seemed to care about his fans overall.

Jack: Mmmm, let’s see….I first saw Jack in a GMOD sandbox collab he did with Mark in April 2015. I didn’t really watch any of his videos and the only ones of him that I daw were ones where he collabed with Mark, Bob, Wade, and a few others. Then I think sometime in fall 2015, I started watching him more, though I don’t remember why. Needless to say, I loved his enthusiasm, his humor (‘cause he’s fuckin’ hilarious), his in-game sass, he’s VERY whimsical…but I also loved that he was altruistic and on the up-and-up. So, I subbed to him October 2015.

This idea came from this lovely person and their post!

What it is that it’s similar to the Boss Week thing that happened a few weeks ago, just so we can spread positivity in this confusing and hateful time in the community.

There’s a SUPERSEPTIC version, a SUPERIPLIER version, and a Pewdssupport version.  I’ll try to answer all three of them the best I can, but since I’m not a regular viewer of Felix’s content, there won’t be as much for him on here.  That doesn’t mean that I don’t support him!  I support him, and give him credit for what he does.  His style of videos simply doesn’t click with me.  Yet I still respect him, and will give him positivity through all of this.

There are seven days in this, and I’m almost too late to do day one, but not quite yet.  I’ll do each day in a new post, so that way you don’t have to scroll for so long to either see the new edition to the week or just to skip the post entirely if that’s not something you want to see.

Positivity Week, here I come!

Okay, Day Three!

IT’S NOT LATE WOOT

“What is your favourite quote of Mark/Jack/Felix and why?”

Ooooohhhhhh gosh.

TheRE ARE SO MANY GOOD QUOTES

I’m thinking I’ll pick one for each, and explain why I like it.

Felix!  I can finally do a prompt with him!

This is a quote that I like from him:

“Live your own life and fuck everyone else and just be fucking happy.”

I like it because it just has a good message, and it’s said in a no-nonsense way, I guess.  It sounds nice and it makes me feel nice. :)

A quote that I love from Jack is:

“As I keep saying, if I can make one person smile in this entire planet from the types of videos that I can make, then I will consider it a success. I will consider it a job well done. If I can make someone feel less lonely, if I can brings someones attention away from some of the hardships that are going on in their lives or if I can just boost someones mood even greater than it already is, then that’s absolutely fantastic because I know that is what Youtube has done for me.”

I love this quote because it shows how much Jack loves doing YouTube.  I’m not saying that Mark, Felix or anyone else doesn’t love doing YouTube, as the two of them have also said similar things, but I just loved it when Jack said it, as it seems to be a recurring theme in his channel.  Throughout all of the hate that has been spewed at him and the community throughout the years, Jack has been able to stay true to what he believes, and has been able to return to why he originally wanted to make his channel.  He sees how much he’s impacted so many people, and wants to keep making an impact, no matter how small.  He has so much dedication to his channel, and he has such a positive outlook on life.  Even now, though all of this bullshit that’s been happening in the past week, Jack has been able to stay positive and look on the bright side of things. Again, I’m not saying that Mark or Felix or anyone else doesn’t have similar feelings towards their channel, or that they aren’t positive or whatever.  I’m just picking this for Jack because this is a recurring theme in his channel.

A quote that I really love from Mark is this:

“I need you too believe in yourself. I need you to tell yourself that you are fearless in whatever you do. Even if you feel like your idea is stupid or your passions don’t matter, that is a lie. I really hope you guys believe me when I say I care about what you guys do and who you are. I will tell you til the end of my days that I believe in you guys and I know that what you do matters. Your dreams matter and your passions matter. Once you find something that you are passionate about and that you burn for, you need to pursue it with reckless abandon, because people will tell you that you can’t for as long as you’re trying to do something and they are wrong. Don’t let anyone tell you that you aren’t important, and definitely don’t tell yourself that. No matter how tough things may seem right now, they can get better. With every fiber of my being, I believe in you.”

I could have chosen a quote of Mark’s that was fun and exciting, like “I’M THE KING OF THE SQUIRRELS!!!”, but then it just wouldn’t feel right to me.  The first thing that I fell in love with when I found Mark was his voice.  His voice was so calming, I felt like I could listen to it all day, every day.  I still feel like that today.  But again, when I found Mark, I was beginning to go through the time of oh shit feelings are a thing, and I didn’t know what to do.  When I heard Mark say this and things like it, it calmed me and inspired me to do more.  I felt (and still feel like sometimes today) that no one cared about me, no one believed in me.  To hear Mark say that so genuinely, with all of his heart, it pulled me back together and pushed me back up.  That’s why I really do love this quote of his.

Alright!  Day Three of Positivity Week done!

AND IT’S NOT (that) LATE WOOOOOT

See you at Day Four!
