User blog:Renardy/THE SML HATE

Time to shut down all the "bring back old characters" and constant bashing of SML, but also to criticize some of the things Logan has been doing. This blog is to show why Logan continues to upload Jeffy (and Junior) videos rather than using old characters, and also HOW he got so popular.

First of all, the movie is taking too long because Logan has to upload his two weekly videos, he would probably finish it if people gave him 2+ weeks but everyone knows that he has to please his fans.

Now on the topic of his criticism, I have never these :"reviewers" talk about his most viewed videos. Guess what? They're Jeffy and Junior. They are the ones who got Logan nearly 75% of his subs. If you are going to deny this, then at least think about this.

Logan had 100k subs in 2013, this was the time when he started to introduce Bowser and Jr

At the end of 2014 that sub count doubled, Logan started to introduce Juniors friends in the second half of 2014 too.

[https://web.archive.org/web/20161229065557/https://www.youtube.com/user/supermariologan At the end of 2016 Logan finally reached 1 million subscribers and the infamous Jeffy character was introduced. With Junior and Jeffy Logans popularity boosted.]

It's 2017 now, and Logan almost has 3 million subscribers at the time of this blog post being posted. He's going to have gained 2 MILLION in ONE YEAR! This is incredible, but how did this happen? Jeffy.

You can go back to the most popular videos and see the massive view count Jeffy videos get. Don't forget all those 24/7 livestreams that have been popping up. They are all Jeffy and Junior because these people know those are the videos primarily watched on Logans channel.

Remember the video from a month ago? Jeffy Gets Bullied? Logan said it got demonetized but it was monetized again (I think), that video currently has 9 million views in just a month.

There are people saying Logan has gotten worse, I disagree. Let me explain, his videos have improved and the quality is much better, while a lot of people hate on him because the ideas are "bad".

He's putting effort in his videos, in the vlogs posted by Chilly he has said he always tries to make his videos perfect, no background noise and many takes (seen in the BTS videos).

If Logan didn't put effort in his videos he would be posting Jeffy and Junior videos almost daily but he seems to care about quality over quantity. He already is aware of his popularity from Jeffy because he has said that most of his fans say "Jeffy is their favorite".

CONCLUSION...

It's hard to please the old fans because most of his subscribers like the Jeffy and Junior videos, they are the ones that got him so big.

I bet the people reading this blog think I'm backing him up entirely but I'm not. I too think he overuses jokes (what are you gonna do, his kid fanbase love it) and has recycled video ideas. Logan has gotten worse, but I guess his ideas have.

Most importantly, Logan should avoid making fun of his criticism, he recently has started to do this. Many have seen his comment on the Chef Peepee Octopus video saying "If you don't like this video, please leave". I mean, there's no pleasing anyone! It's hard to please over 3 million subscribers but it is harder to please the people who like his old videos when they don't seem to be watched as much. If he is having trouble making videos for the old characters he can always integrate them with the new characters.

That's it, I'd like to hear your opinions
