Skylords!

Holy crap we have 8 pages of skylords. That's epic. (And no, I don't hate the yogscast, I'm just amazed. Wow.)

For those that don't know, Yogscast had "Skylord Somebody" in their Shadow of Israphel series. I'm just sorta amazed.

I don't know.
On one side, I'm glad that GoI is getting more and more popular.
On the other, the Yogscast has a notoriously toxic fanbase of mostly kids and in the past few days I already noticed a steep increase in the amount of trolls and obnoxious players, all level 1, 2 and 3.

We'll see.

Serenum is right, I've noticed an increase in trolls and some pretty offensive names in the past few days

So long as we get some friendly players who stick around, I don't mind the odd troll. Last night I jumped ship and blocked some guy who was a little too aggressive with the smack talk. I went to the other team and started a 6 game 5-0 win streak.

On the subject of players, some guy went on a swear fest right in front of Cullen a few weeks back, I was like oh shit.

I have definitely noticed an increase in generally annoying players. But this is to be expected due to the fact that the player base itself has grown extravagantly in the past month. After a while the same thing that happened in May will repeat and the massive influx will die down, leaving a player base smaller than during the high, but leaving behind new dedicated players. Basically, it's just a phase.

Basically. All we need to do is offer good gaming experiences for potential newbies, trolls will fade away over time back to their Call of Modern Battlefield.

On average Simon and Lewis, founding members of the Yogscast, pull in 2 million views per video . So it doesn't surprise me in the least.

Not really. Half a million is about normal for a non-tekkit/ftb/SOI. We got almost exactly half a million. Then again, "Half a million" is a big number as well.

just grabbed this number off the current main vid in their channel "973,072 "

granted it's half as big as the number I gave, but it's about twice your estimate :)
