> ... < Losing Subs > ... <

Have you ever looked at your subscription counter and seen that it is lower than last you checked? I have, on multiple occasions. It's only dropped by one mind you, but it still feels pretty bad when you realize somebody cared enough about distancing themselves from your work to go to your profile and click unsubscribe. It really makes you wonder... what did you do to deserve this? Have you been making really awful work lately? Should you try harder to make good content?

I personally try my best not to let it get to me, but it is still troubling. The worst part of all is you'll probably never understand their reasoning behind it. You'll be left wondering forever, bathing in an ocean of eternal self-doubt. It really sucks.

So, here's what I want to say. If you want to unsubscribe from somebody, please do them a favor. PM them the reason you've decided to unsub before you do it. If you leave feedback they'll be able understand your choice better and maybe fix the issues you spotted in the first place! If we all just had this common courtesy, the problem would resolve itself.

That's all I had to say today. Be on the look out for an Adventure Map, a Pokemon skin, and more amazing blogs in the future! If you liked this and want to spread the message, don't forget to diamond or even subscribe! Thanks guys, see y'all!

I'm supposing the reason you are losing subscribers is because you spam PMC with blogs of you whining. Leaving is encouraged.

I only unsubscribed once, from CNCminecraft, and actually it wasn't because I decided I hate their content, but because their publish rate is way to high comparing to my other subscriptions, and it floods my sub feed and gives me a hard time when I look for a project I liked in the feed. I LOVE their content but because I know that the stuff that is worth watching most of the time gets to the pop reel anyway, and I do try to give them diamonds.

I don't want to be forward about it, but making blogs like this to exert your feelings doesn't help bring the problem to light. It in turn can actually deter your subscribers into thinking you are entitled to "control" them, in a sense. I know that's probably not your intentions, but people may infer so. Also, if I may add, they may want to unsub whilst remaining anonymous, to prevent you from hearing why they don't want to follow your work any longer. In the long run, it could potentially damage you. I'm glad these hard times don't get to you though, so I thank you for staying strong and not lashing out erratically, more so in a very civil manner.

I have to agree with you, I do think it kind of is best to not send a PM to that person, because it could be they really just don't like your work any more and could say something quite hurtful. But that's just me and my input. Anyways +1 diamond
