The online gaming scene is honestly not a very friendly one. Conventions, tournaments, and meetups all have the nicest people. However, UA-cam, Twitch, and Twitter comments are filled with some of the worst on the planet. Why is this? And Why does it break so many figures in the gaming community? This video hopes to explain why with a bit of psychology, personal experience, and extrapolation. The gameplay is me doing very well with AMR9 SMG.

I capture console gameplay with The Elgato HD60 because it's the most professional device on the market for 1080p 60fps console capture.

All of the gameplay in this video was achieved using a Scuf controller. This is my favorite controller I use it every single day. check them out at: www.scufgaming....

Drift0r, You'll probably never read this but, I want you know why I watch your videos.
It started with simply your in-depths. It was something I needed but didn't realize until I saw it was something that existed. So I started watching them and you gave me ideas for classes and etc. But then as I kept watching your videos, I noticed something else. You'd make these thoughtful videos based on topics that didn't really have a lot to do with CoD, or gaming even. But most importantly, it was the way you talked about them. Like your in-depths, you showed a kind of intellect that many might consider uncharacteristic to the "CoD community." And then you showed this sort of kindness, this level-headed attitude. I've almost never seen you get angry, or really too emotional. That isn't to say you act like a robot but, you never seem to let your emotions really take you over, and as someone who occasionally has that problem, you went up in my book because of it.
At this point, even if your in-depths somehow drop in quality or I stop having a use for them, I still plan to watch your videos. Your personality has basically won me over. I'm interested in any views you may have towards anything you're willing to talk about. That is something I almost never say about people. I hope you take away from this, whatever you feel best to take away from it. - Strider Kiwi
Nah he's said he has anger problems, like everyone else in the world. Although he is awesome and intellectual, but he has said he's not like that irl.
I wanted to comment but found the one text already explaining what i'd have to say. Same story here. I enjoy the thoughtful comments, because wise and educated chaps can sometimes straighten up things in your head, give you an idea or a new perspective, even when talking about a very different topic. So these "this is how we human are made" talks of Drift0r are the ones I always try to watch even if I skipped past 2 CoDs and don't watch In depths anymore. It's just not that common to meet such a bright point of view on UA-cam.
Dmitry Elizarov Yeah, I don't own or plan to buy COD AW but I watch all Driftor's vids, even the in-depths. Just like to watch him play and hear his opinions on the game and on life.
Lol exaxt same here. Came for the in-depth, stayed for the commentary. Im cery casual in CoD I only ever play mw3 but ive seen like all his vids for bo2 and aw. I just like his vids
I love your videos because you don't treat us like babies that are incapable to listen to intelligent content
Love the profile picture dude
thanks :p
EXACTLY!!!
You know, Drift0r, I stopped playing CoD back when i was burned out on playing MW3, through which i came to know your channel. Even though i'm not interested in CoD anymore i must say that i absolutely love your commentaries on those kind of tucked away under the rug topics. And i really like hearing your opinions because not only do you really intensively give an opinion on something, but rather that you research the topic you'll talk about, you're not just blabbering away what goes through your mind, you actually think about what is important,what needs to said...and that's what kept me here! Keep up the good work :)
These are my favorite types of videos that you output Drift0r. They have substance to them, unlike the majority of gaming videos on UA-cam today sadly. Love the In-Depth though, too, very informative. Only thing I could ask for is more of this sort of video please (there goes my human nature again... always wanting more :D).
LOL so true, I want more of these as well
Well, I'm taken aback by how good this commentary was. I mean you stated good points and explanations that honestly couldn't have been said better by others. I like how you bring gaming down to a real world perspective and don't just live on the internet and talk just about what goes on in cyberspace. I find gaming to have an exponentialy growing rate of mean, nasty communities that aren't very welcoming. Having said that, I'm thinking of becoming a speedrunner cause I find that it is a very friendly community filled with wonderful people that aren't so different from me. Anyway, I appreciate how you address us(your fans) and entertain, sometimes even educate, us. Keep up the good work and I'll see you in the next vid. Peace.
Hey, man. I guess I have been one of those silent people. I have been watching your channel for two years, and your channel has become a part of my everyday routine. It's funny because watching your cahnnel everyday feels like I know you, but there's that reality of, this is only the digital world. I never really thought about some of the things that you and the other you tubers have to deal with on a daily basis. Your channel is by far my favorite. You're a cool guy Drift0r, and thank you for your awesomeness!
Don't let yourself get down on negative comments, I feel a lot of people overly emphasise the negative because of the effect it has on you. I don't believe the majority of people do actually prescribe to the 'dickwad theory' as you called it, and a lot of the time something written that you may perceive to be negative, really isn't at all or they hold no meaning and weight. Adjusting to the internet is adjusting your filter essentially. Either way it is a nice video, and I feel you get a lot right here too and your experience is very interesting, I hope you can cope with everything in the future as depression does truly suck! :)
"I feel a lot of people overly emphasise the negative because of the effect it has on you"
I think what you mean to say is:
Driftor brings up the negative cause of the effects he has decided to notice about himself?
Which is totally a positive thing, Being more open minded to the fact you can be wrong.
Extreme Gamer So in other words, He decided he had enough of the negative impacting him, And instead of reacting like he might have before as others do constantly. He instead tries to convey a different approach to those who might listen.
hey joshino i never though id see u here fellow planetside 2 boss
Oh man like how Pewbs disabled comments

Someone from the PS2 community linked me this :)
I'm usually one of the silent ones but here. I love you, you're awesome drift0r. You've done great things for me in psychological ways and in small ways. Your UA-cam 101 series got me thinking about UA-cam, your product review on Astros convinced me to buy some with my extra money because I'm a competitive gamer, and you've just changed things in my life with your wisdom and vast knowledge. Thank you.
I usally almost never comment, and i like hwo you don't just do commentaries about a new patch or about some weird gun, you also do these type of videos, where you talk about this psychological stuff, these are defenetely my favorite kinds of videos from you :)
I agree
I definitely agree
I fucking love you driftor. You've gotten me through tough times and you're probably wiser than 80% of people today. I thank you with my whole heart. Thank you.
Ok Drift0r i got your point in this and i understand why the good feedback is necessary to the big internet celebritys. Btw i probably never commented on your videos since ive been watching you (first video i watched (german) holidays and it was a mw3 in depth video). All your great work is so appreciated and you are one of my favorite youtubers, because you are a guy that does not trashtalk the whole day, U are a smart youtuber that understand how to find the right way of getting the message conveyed to us viewers
P.S. correct me if my school english is bad #germanenglishsucks :D
I'm German too haha! Have a good day.
***** Specifically the second "understand"
Your English is actually better than most Americans . .
***** He uses the word "understand" twice. Your correction applies to the second instance of it. I thought he might be confused and think you were talking about the first instance of it
Your English is very good....Understood everything. :-)
I haven't commented on many of your videos but I just wanted to say that you are my favorite youtuber because you make quality content (the in depth series) and it is refreshing to watch a guy who is really smart, logical, down-to-earth, and interesting. Thank you for the great videos, keep it up! I'm glad you don't listen to the hate.
I watch you now for 1,5 years and this is the first time I comment! I do absolutly love your vids, you inspire me and a lot of others. I am from The Netherlands, please visit it once in your life, it is a country like no other =D
ik ben van belgie haha en ik heb net een soortgelijke reactie achter gelaten

Read his comment again. "this is the first time I comment"
I love your videos and how in depth you can get with them. It is extremely rare in the gaming community and you succeed in it. I'm not sure if others enjoy economics and societal talk but you are one hell of an interesting dude and I love listening to what you have to say. Keep doing what you do and you are so much more intelligent than any other youtuber!
A red beard to go with your hair might look slick.....
I agree. beards are sexy
Damn straight. Get a beard +drift0r
Thankyou Driftor for giving me the opportunity to meet you whilst at Gfinity! The best part was you actually spoke to me for a while instead of a quick picture! Thanks for just being an all round good guy and carry on doing your best!
1st
To love driftors haircut
Touché
It was like that yesterday.
Driftor is the only gaming youtuber who actually actually puts interesting content into gaming, rather than just playing a game. He just knows what he talks about, and makes really intriguing videos about great topics. I'm one of those guys who has watched his videos sine bo2 in depth, but have MAYBE commented once of twice. For the haters: I am not just throwing a nice comment up because thats part of this video, I honestly just think driftor is one of the best at doing something different from just playing a video game... it sets his channel apart in a positive way. something somewhat similar is my own youtube channel; it is all paintball gameplay. ALL THE TIME I get people telling me I am such a spoiled rich kid because I have a nice paintball gun. People never think that I could work for a paintball field, or have been playing for three years, giving me plenty of time to save up over a grand. I love youtube, and the small paintball youtubers are all generally nice, supportive people. its just focussing on the small group of positive, rather than the boat full of negative. (only have a 120ish subs so I am not crazy popular or anything)
Did... Did you dye your hair?
._.
No drift0r. Why
How could u do such a thing
*****
It's not that I don't like it, it's just different, and generally we as a species don't like change.
yeah kinda wonder if there is a special reason for it like movember or something or that perhaps he lost a bet of some sort
As someone who lives somewhere inbetween the second and third worlds - it doesn't get that much different. People will hate people for the smallest things. Only they don't do it due to boredom, but to vent their frustrations from dealing with the problems that come with living here.
But anyways, I do appreciate what you do, and you're pretty good at it. Cheers.
Your philosophical-esque videos have always been good at getting me thinking, even before I had even started my own channel haha. Good stuff man; I might not be big on COD like I used to be, but I'll always keep on enjoying your commentary, and I just hope I can keep on being myself with what I do.
Hey Drift0r, I guess I'm kinda one of those people so I guess I'll make this one good! First of all, your new hair makes you look like 6 years younger. I watch every single one of your videos and there always great quality, like no other. You do amazing things and always make people happy (Including me). And I just hope you keep on doing what you're doing. Keep up the great work and maybe do a fan meetup in the Dallas, Grapevine area sometime. ;) Keep the amazing work and never stop doing what your doing.
Been watching your videos off and on for the last year. Finally subscribed at the start of AW, so glad I did. Seriously Drift0r, your one of the coolest people within the call of duty community. There's so many different personalities and I really think your one of the better ones. You keep it professional and helpful with your in depth/tips videos and you also can step back and talk about very serious topics such as this one with seem less ease. I don't normally comment on videos but I felt the need to share my opinion with you. I hope my comment isn't drown out by all the useless hate. Keep doing you man!
Hey man I don't leave comments very often..but I've been watching your videos since MW3, I still remember the exact video. I think it was an AA12 moab on lockdown. Even since them I've been hooked. I love the in depth videos and all the stats. But the reason I stay subscribed is the more intellectual videos like this. I don't always agree with what you have to say, but I feel like listening you gives me a better perspective on life and our existence as humans as a whole. I think youre a really smart dude, and usually feel more knowlegable after stepping away from one of your videos. Keep up the good work, I am part of the silent majority who sincerely enjoy your craft, and though I may not comment much, know that there are plenty of us out here that enjoy what you do.
You've got to be one in a million because I haven't ever seen anyone do any statistics videos about CoD before you have, so great job on that. I also respect you because you love video games, and numbers, statistics, percentages, etc. and you followed your dream by mixing the two together. I almost never comment on videos so I never noticed how much it means to people like you.
I'm one of the silent fans! Lol. Love your commentaries Drftor, probably some of the most thorough and intelligible thoughts on the Internet. You are one of the Internet personalities I trust the most to be genuine.
Good commentary man! I really like these videos with insight into what it's like to be in the bigger part of UA-cam!
I really appreciate your videos, keep up the good work ;)
Hey Drift0r, as a psych major in college I really like it when you delve into why people act the way they do and it was interesting to hear your take on how this particularly is expressed through the internet. Anyway keep up the good work!
From
-Silent Majority ;)
Great video Drift0r. These commentaries are why I am still subscribed to you. Yea, the In-Depth stuff is great, but these videos are far more insightful. Keep up the great work!
I often don't comment because I feel like I say the same thing over and over. "Great vid!" "Keep it up!" "Thanks for making this!" etc. I realize that these probably still make those people feel great and I should leave them even though they are repetitive, sometimes I really just don't even consider leaving a comment, just like you said. Anyway, great commentary on an interesting topic!
This was an amazing commentary, these types of commentaries are my favourite to listen to. I love the work you've done and are still doing. Keep doing it.
P.S. your videos on the Dunning-Kruger and Cobra effects were awesome. The Dunning-Kruger vid came out the day after we read about it in class (psychology). Meanwhile, a keynote speaker talked about the Cobra effect at a conference that I attended recently. Although, some of your viewers see these types of videos as venturing outside of your 'gamer' identity, I hold that your style and knowledge make these some of the most intriguing videos that you have. I look forward to more.
I think your videos are great because they are well thought out (relative to the rest of the youtuber commentators) and bring in sound reasoning to your claims. Please keep making these, as a person who likes reason and logic myself, I think your channel is a great fit to my personality.
Dift0r you made my day yet again with this thought provoking commentary man. I'm one of those "Silent People" who rarely comments, but trust me I never go a single day without viewing your video's man. F*** everybody who don't like your vids, don't like you, or hell don't like me for even mentioning these very words to you. Continue to do exactly what my "Name/Gamer Tag" say's man, stay encouraged always! - "Truth was here"
Hey Driftor, I started playing CoD on the wii way back whe MW3 came out and your channel really helped me understand the game. Now Im playing AW on PC and once again here you are to help me. Ive never left a comment and Ive always taken you for granted but now after watching this i just want you to know that I really value you and your videos and I hope you keep it up for many years to come
Really great video. These types of videos are what--at least in my own opinion--really distinguish your channel from others in the COD vein of UA-cam. The sort of social commentaries (I guess?) in addition to the extremely helpful info are what make this my favorite COD channel.
God damn I love your videos. Not only do you tend to talk about human psychology (which is highly interesting to me) a lot but you see things from other views and put yourself in others shoes which is a really truely a great thing. It gives such insight and the information you provide is, to me, wonderful and I could talk about this stuff all day. Often I find myself talking about things you do to friends and family and use things you've said, all the time. Not only this but your open minded, which to me is invaluable and I change the way I think after a video such as this and remind myself to step back and just think. Then your more gaming type videos like in depth are absolutely amazing because they provide SO much information and I happily absorb it. Thanks man I really love what you do and how you do it
Another solid vid Drift0r- watching all your in depth episodes has helped me grow as a player. One idea for the game i thought of but don't worry about sending it or anything would be that every fourth scavenger pack you pick up (if you equipped that perk of course) recharges your exo battery. That might be OP but i feel like more people would use the exo that way. Personally, i'd rather equip a better gun and double up on perks than win 1 gunfight because I have an exo ability going.
Well said, makes alot of sense. I've watched a couple of your videos now and your ideas tend to resonate with me alot. I'm just jealous because I can't express myself aswell as you can, you're extremely eloquent and clear in your speech, whereas I tend to stutter and trip over my thoughts!
For the sake of making the unspoken majority a little louder, you are awesome and I love your videos, your in depths are a fresh breath from the normal CoD based channels and I love it when you talk about real life stuff. You're just a cool person and I'm glad UA-cam and everything is working out for ya.
Drift0r, I love how you describe and explain to your audience about the conflicts you, as a UA-camr, run into daily. I think this truly shows us your transparency and helps people to understand how impactful their comments are, good or bad. Thank you Drift0r.
You're the King of COD, man. Love your vids, always have. I especially love these non-COD commentaries you do as well, such as your Dunning-Kruger, Cobra Effect, and Mythbusting episodes. You're one of only two Tubers I have ever actually subscribed to.
Keep it up, King!
Very, very good video Drift0r. Even though I'm not at all a UA-camr, I've been dealing with a lot of what you talked about in your video and, in short, I've forced myself to step back/slightly detach/not take so much offense or care to negative behavior - and it's a lot better than getting emotionally invested in every petty matter.
One thing I really like about you is how smart you are. You always seem to have something interesting to talk about, whereas the other youtubers generally talk about what's going on in the gameplay they're showing. Keep it up!
you provide thought provoking ideas that make your channel far more entertaining than 99% of other youtubers who offer just gaming commentary. keep it up.
This is a great video. With my small amount of subscribers, I already see this. People doing shout outs for me and getting upset if I forget or fail to do one for them. People asking to collaborate and then get upset when I tell them I have no time because I have a wife and 2 kids. I hear you man. It must be really hard for you drift0r with the amount of subs you have.
Drift0r man, I have to say that I have been here since your dream videos(the whole vampire thing) and I must say I love your content. I love your sense of logic and I really like how you confront problems. Every video is silky smooth on how it is organized and executed. Do NOT listen to the haters, every single one of your videos are fine and as a commentator I would not change a thing. Keep it up man
‘True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man doubts often, and changes his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubts not; he knows all things but his own ignorance.’ I don't know where i first heard this quote but what you were saying about the loudest voices being the most negative and toxic while the friendlier voices stay silent for lack of feeling a need to speak kind of reminded me of it. Another version (kinda) I remember from a song, "conscience keeps us quiet while the tricky love to speak." I might help to try to keep things in perspective. So what if some jerk posts a toxic comment and gets few dozen thumbs up on a video with tens of thousands of views. The rest of us may not have said anything but we didn't care for or agree with what was said enough to have that thumbs up count get even close to 5% or 10% of the actual viewing population.
I have been subbed for the last two yrs or so and rarely comment so I wanted to say keep up the great work. You and XclusiveAce are my two favorite channels. Also really like your off topic videos such as this one and your "dreams" videos. I appreciate all the hard work you do to find out all the stats for Advanced Warfare and the previous cods. Thanks Drift0r!
I am one of those people who never comments on your videos, Drift0r, even though I've seen the bulk of them, but there's one thing... down, deep inside of me that I've been meaning to express for a long, long time... I just wanted to tell you, Drift0r, (in a quiet, whispery, yet serious voice) I love you...
At first I was disappointed that this wasn't an episode of in depth, but I found this quite enjoyable. Don't let anyone get you down drift0r, you've got a good thing going here and you make a lot of people's days better just by posting your content.
I'm 37 years old and have been playing video games for most of my life. I have come across many different types of gamers, especially being that I am an educator at the middle school level. I could easily stay that silent majority and allow some of those negative individuals to rule the comments, not today though! I wanted to let you know that I look forward to your videos each day. I usually always learn something and enjoy your style of making videos. Keep doing what you are doing!
Hey driftor thanks for this video it really changed my thinking, I used to complain and be like "why isn't their this why don't the change this?" But I really took a step back and thought about everything and I was a total dirt bag I wasn't sending suicide threats or anything of that caliber but I would complain so much other, would be frustrated, and it didn't help anything if anything it made things worse my friends were say "phil stop complaining and raging it really kinda ruins it for me" and I saw this video and im done with complaining and raging. Thanks for posting this video it changed video games for me forever! Keep up the awesome work!
I consider myself part of what you call the silent majority. Maybe it's a bit late to say now, but you are one of my favorite UA-camrs out there. I get excited every time you upload a new video. I'm not into CoD but I watch your videos just because you're such a nice and entertaining person. I wanted to say that you helped me in many situations of my life and I want to thank you for it. Keep doing those great videos.
I really appreciate content like this. I enjoy the psychological analysis of sorts. I'm a very logical sort of person and I tend to be more interested in why things happen rather than the thing itself. You're doing an amazing job at providing quality entertainment. Keep it up Drift0r
Drift0r, I completely agree with everything that you brought up in your video, and it was really well thought out. I'm one of those people that hardly ever comment and just watch the video, but I felt compelled to tell you that you are a great UA-camr and to keep up your great videos. I thoroughly enjoy your more personal content such as this. I hope you and Jessica have a great day. And I can't forget Ozzy! :)
I guess that makes me apart of the silent group. I appreciate your content a lot despite having lost interest in cod, because of the wisdom you bring to the table in commentaries like this. And my philosophy of the Internet is, the loudest voices are the angriest voices. Because generally the people who enjoy it, have nothing to say except that they liked it and they move on. The people that hate it, want to make it the biggest deal possible to get their point across and feel like they made a difference, to make you feel bad and change your ways. Just remember that drift0r if you see this. Keep up the good work.
Hey Driftor great video. I've been following your channel since the mw3 days and I've got to say you're one of my favorite youtubers. You're a very reasonable, intelligent person and I have a lot of respect for you. I definitely agree with you and I feel really sorry for all the youtubers, developers, and internet stars who have to deal with so much heat over ridiculous things. Hopefully your day hasn't been too full of ridiculous requests/threats. I really appreciate your videos and I hope you just keep doing what you're doing.
Drift0r thanks for reminding me what you guys, youtubers, do for us as a community, always being who you are for us and just having fun with what you do again for us, so...thanks, really for everything you have, are and will do for us and just remember, have fun and dont get too stressed or worked up over youtube if your feeling down and dont want to post a video, then dont we can handle not having a video for 1 day and anyone who cant handle it arent loyal fans of YOU, just your videos, and again thanks for all you have done for us. ;)
I've been watching you since MW2 in-depth, and practically the inception of your channel. I remember the days of 4k-5k subscriptions for you. You've always been a staple in my subscriptions, and I just wanted to thank you :).
I love how insightful these kind of videos you post are. Whenever it's something pertinent to philosophy, or just social commentary in general, I feel more whole as a person afterwards. If that makes sense, haha.
Great video man, you nailed it on the head, I am part of that silent majority that never leave comments, but I watch all your videos, I love the fact that I can watch gaming videos that aren't filed with senseless immature commentary.
Driftor I REALLY enjoyed this commentary. I'm so envious that you get to live your dream and do this for a living. I'm not on the easiest career path and it leaves me frustrated at the end of almost every day but I love coming home and watching your commentaries and In-depth episodes and learning how to better myself in not only gaming but in life as well. Don't listen to the haters and keep doing what your doing. HUGE fan of all your videos.
Honestly I think you are a great UA-camr you are definitely one of my favorite UA-camr out there and I think you shouldn't let anyone tell you what to do, you should just keep doing what your doing and the people that want to stick with you no matter what will stay and anyone who doesn't like what you post or do anymore can just leave don't get disengouraged by all the hateful comments out there they can only affect you if you let them affect you @Drift0r
Just wanted to say thanks for the videos you upload Driftor, they have helped me become a more tactical call of duty player and I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos and listening to your insightful tips and messages.what many people don't understand is you take time out of your day to help us grow as gamers and entertain us when you don't have to and we greatly appreciate it. Keep doing what your doing and good luck
I love these types of videos. The societal viewpoint that you bring out is always a great analysis, and the best part is that you don't just look at it from one perspective, but all of them. Been subbed for a long time, and I'm always trying to send you subs whenever someone has a technical question about COD that you've talked about. Keep up the amazing work, and keep growing! ^.^
Hey Brad I look forward to seeing these types of videos and stuff. My high school career was horrible just to stay. You helped indirectly by just doing what you do thank you. You are one hell of a guy and the mrs. is very lucky to have you.
Great commentary driftor! I actually had to do a paper in my university on this subject. Its simple as u stated in the video, people like to get behind a username and say what they want to say. Unfortunately, I feel like the villianived "bad guy" of the cod community is keemstar. Which i dont get at all, i am a big fan of his work and hes a gd guy.
I just have to say man, my personal opinion is that I enjoy these vlog / gameplays more than anything else you do. You are very insightful & think thoroughly through most of the ideas & points you talk about. You seem like the type of person I would love to have as a friend. Anyways, keep on keeping on!
Dont worry about a lot negative feedback at this point in your youtube career mn. A lot of people, including me, are big fans of u man, and we love to watch your videos everyday, there's something relaxing about listening to your comentaries. I've been a fan for a while driftor, just keep up your great work, because u know u are the Spock of COD
Good video, I've thought of the concept you worked around in it and am glad to see that I'm not alone in my thoughts on it. Also nice to know there's someone else out there who can be thoughtful about such issues in the seemingly large sea of hatred that is known as the internet.
thank you driftor, you changed my life 2 years ago. You made me feel good about wanting to learn. you made me want to improve and become a "smart" person. I truly do thank you, this comment isn't just because you told the silent majority to speak up. it just reminded me how grateful I am.
Possibly my favorite video you've ever published on UA-cam. Just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy your content and I wish you the best with your channel!
i love ya Drift0r, your cod in depths really help me out, especially the unchain yourself and what makes you a good player ones back in BO2, I love your commentaries because your voice is golden butter, so keep on playing! the game's not over yet.
Hello Drift0r,
I am aware that you probably will not get to read this comment from a random guy in a pot of almost a 750 000 subscribers.
My point is:
I watched your video to the end. Not just this one, but every video since two years from the beginning to the end (except some outros ;-)
I am totally okay with your videos and in my opinion you are one of the most professional players out there. Not only your very objective commentaries but also your setup is great, sounds are great et cetera...
THANK YOU! For great videos! As long as you are yourself as you are right now, you do not earn hate. Maybe a little bit so you don't stop making videos but not as much as you do get right now.
Also, your hair looks awesome!!! :D
LG
Leon
Drift0r, you're a good man, and thank you for making this video. Even though I don't enjoy COD anymore, I still enjoy watching your videos because of your commentary style. And you're right, I usually don't feel the need to comment and just like a solid video. However, I will try to keep your assertions in mind and speak my mind in a positive fashion on future videos that I watch.
If I enjoy anything that seems to have a focus on one person or a group I may comment on it positively, otherwise I usually just like the video and perhaps add it to a playlist of mine like "favourites" or "music I like".
There are times when I feel compelled to leave a comment but for the most part I really am part of the silent majority. I might start to try and leave more positive comments but that would usually amount to leaving a comment every video, while it's nothing compared to what the content creator goes through to create, it's still something.
Regardless, I'm going to start trying and I'll start right here. Thank you, Drift0r. I always enjoy your videos, I always learn something new when I watch any single one of your videos. You are one of my favourite people out there, I recommend you to anybody and everybody who wants to know more about Call of Duty. I wish you, your wife, your fanbase and Ozy the absolute best for the future. Please keep up the outstanding work on UA-cam, it always lifts my mood when I see that you have released a new video.
Drift0r, as part of that silent majority, I usually click like on your videos but have never left a comment on ANY video in years, simply because I usually have nothing to say. From reading comments however, I've found that only when people disagree (usually very strongly/insanely) will they take the time to leave (sometimes hateful/unintelligible) comments (which is counterintuitive, since I figure if they hate it that much, they'd just click to stop watching). Anyway, I don't know what to say, so I'll go off your suggestions. Thanks for all these videos and the hard work you do. Keep it up! :)
Thanks! All of your hard work has meant a lot to me. Your videos - in depth or miscellaneous - are one of my favorite parts of the day.
Thank you driftor for taking your time and giving us some insight on how the UA-cam/ streamer life is :) so thank you for all the stress you put in to make these videos!
Keep up the great content Drift0r! Your channel is always a welcome sight, either for in depths or the deep, insightful commentary you do. In fact, I'm thinking of trying out a channel myself, and I'm going to have to get better at ignoring the bad out there. So, stay strong and if you happen to see a DainNukem floating around, it just might be yours truly. Stay awesome!
Thank you these personal commentaries are along with the in depths are what make this the best channel
I appreciate all your videos Driftor. You're the reason I don't want to give up on COD, because previously I thought COD was just going to the shitter in the past. But CODAW made a turn around, and I always watched your in-depths for all your videos, whether it was on a COD I liked or not (Ghosts...). Anyways, keep up the awesome work. I don't know if I'd necessarily call you, or any youtuber, a hero. But you're definitely a well-sized influence on my gaming life.

Great Video Man.
Hey Drif0r, I love your videos, your vlogs, your in-depths, your controversial world problem videos like this one and everything else. It is so true that the only reason that there is so much negativity is because the non-assholes dont have much to say.
On a sidenote, i see a few of these guys saying that they dont like videos like these by you and that you should just stick to in-depth. Please dont listen to them, I like watching these kinds of videos and your reviews and your cute doges. You are in my opinion the closest to being the Ideal UA-camr.
I really enjoyed this video :) I am usually the silent kind of viewer, I enjoy almost all of your content and hey - good job, great video man. You got a nice channel, for the months after release where I am interested in CoD related videos, this is my go-to channel. I love your in-depth CoD content ASWELL as your videos that discuss real life issues like this one. Keep it (all) comng :) (Y)
Your channel is amazing with the gaming and phycology. I am largely within the gaming world and i love phycology! Every one of your videos helps me and makes me a better person and makes me thing about things a lot more deeply thank you and i hope great videos are coming!!
Thank you Dritf0r. I appreciate what you do for us viewers and I hope you have a Merry Christmas. :)
Huge fan Drift0r. Keep making vids, your in-depths really help with my game-play and your commentaries are generally insightful and/or interesting.
You're the only UA-camr that actually has intellectual content and you're pretty much the only UA-cam Gamer that I watch these days. I never enjoyed the others. These types of videos are my favourite so please keep up the good work. Sincerely, your Canadian fan.
hey drif0r u are awesome i love your more plilisophical type vids cause theyre really eye opening and interesting to listen to and in depth has sometimes been a real life saver for me when iplay so keep making more awesome vids like you do and tell ozy i said hi
Great video Driftor! I really liked the point you made about people in the first world feeling the need to make villains, it was very interesting.
Hey Drift0r, just wanted to say that I really appreciate all that you do for the cod and gaming community. You've been a big help in making me a better gamer and well a better person to. I understand that some people don't enjoy watching your more serious videos but I think that they are very intriguing and important. I remember watching your video on saying no and it really did help me not become too overwhelmed in promises that I couldn't keep. Anyways, you really are a great and wise person and I'm grateful for all of the work that you do. Keep doing what you do. You look good with red hair by the way. Cheers.
dude the first in depth I watched the black ops 2 foregrip vid and since then I've been watching a fuckton of your in depths and they really do help so keep up the good work drift,love the haircut by the way
Love your work man don't listen to the negativity it's only jerks that either are jealous or they just like to be assholes. You can clearly see how much effort and time you put in to your videos and everyone that watches is surely grateful for that.
One of my favorite Driftor videos ever, lots of things to relate to and it feels good to hear you say them and make me understand what's actually going on. Thanks Driftor:)
