I checked the video url from the DD and yes, that video is indeed unavailable.
Wonder why he seems to do this every now and then instead of just taking everything old and cringy down at once.

If you go onto a playlist with all his videos it shows 2 is private. The video after amazingdan was uploaded and a video after stupid air fresheners was uploaded. I’m guessing one of them that has been privated is the stalker prank calls.mm_sunny1993 wrote: Sat Feb 17, 2018 7:38 pmSeems like it is 'Stalker Prank Call'.LtrllySusan wrote: Sat Feb 17, 2018 7:21 pm Inspired by the discussion in the Anthony Padilla thread I was doing some browsing on SocialBlade when I found that Dan seems to have privated/deleted a 3M views video (or multiple vids adding up to 3M) yesterday?

Does anyone know how to check what video(s) that is?
I don't know if he deleted it or not.
That's probably his worst video imo so I'm not too sad! It's always been far too cringe to watch.mm_sunny1993 wrote: Sat Feb 17, 2018 7:38 pmSeems like it is 'Stalker Prank Call'.LtrllySusan wrote: Sat Feb 17, 2018 7:21 pm Inspired by the discussion in the Anthony Padilla thread I was doing some browsing on SocialBlade when I found that Dan seems to have privated/deleted a 3M views video (or multiple vids adding up to 3M) yesterday?

Completely agree. AmazingDan should have been a standalone. I'm glad Truth or Dare 2 is not just unlisted anymore. I think maybe he wanted to keep it because of the flow of that playlist, but I honestly don't care for the series. I'm sure it was fine for back in the day, but now? The only thing I really liked about that video was the story about Dan getting his head stuck in a train because it was closing before Phil got on. I'd be happy for Would You Rather to quietly disappear as well. Even their first DITL is hard for me to watch at points, but it's too nostalgic to let go. Anywho, good riddance to Stalker Prank Call. Deleting that one feels like a result of being involved with StopSpeakSupport, so yay.

I agree that Stalker Prank Call was the worst, and I'm not crazy about the other ones you mention. Which is their first DITL? The Manchester one or was there one before that? I really like the Manchester one, and its outtakes, Terrifying Baby Woman (which may be where I got my avatar from).

Yep, Manchester. I know it’s an unpopular opinion and I do like it for the most part, as well as the side channel one. It’s a bunch of little stupid comments at the beginning which maybe doesn’t add up to anything too horrible, but it’s enough that I hesitate adding it to a rec list for hypothetical new friends. I begin to loose tolerance at about 4 mins in with the Phil’s albino, Dan’s black and Dan’s afro. But it does get better after that.LeftHandedism wrote: Sat Feb 17, 2018 9:52 pmI agree that Stalker Prank Call was the worst, and I'm not crazy about the other ones you mention.

You just inspired me to watch Terrifying Baby Woman again, and omg I feel like it's under appreciated tbh. A quality vid. The scene that your avatar's from, damn. Absolute 10/10.
agreed, especially since he's deleted other videos due to that person being featured, he could at least say something on that videocaptainspacecoat wrote: Sun Feb 18, 2018 12:15 am
Agree with catallena about I Will Go Down With This Ship. I sympathise with him to a certain extent, in so far as it's a popular video that was arguably instrumental in boosting his subscribers back in 2012 (I remember seeing countless gifs of it on my tumblr dash at the time, and it was eventually the video that prompted me to look up his channel). However, given what Alex did, and how shunned he has been by the entire youtube community, I reckon at the very least the video could do with a new thumbnail and a disclaimer in the description.
I agree with this. I also don't understand why him deleting a video rather than leaving it unlisted/putting a disclaimer is such a big deal? If Dan deletes a video, it's because he doesn't want to be associated with it anymore. He's either not proud of it, doesn't want to leave a bad impression with new viewers or doesn't want people to use it against him (because people on the internet love calling others out for something problematic they did/said years ago). It's not that deep. Sure, people can reupload it but those videos won't get nearly as much attention as they would on Dan's channel.autumnhearth wrote: Sun Feb 18, 2018 1:44 pm Nah, I completely agree with captainspacecoat on this one. Dan’s original stance of not deleting old cringe videos was about editing quality, not offensive content. I appreciate character growth, but if someone is new to him and looking back at his channel or a playlist (which is where the unlisted videos would show up) they wouldn’t see the videos that no longer reflect his values and thus wouldn’t question if he is worth watching. Of course it is easy to fall down a rabbit hole on YouTube and find old videos, but I think it’s more likely that they would notice that his name is not attached to it, than they are to read any info below the video (which if you are on a mobile app you have to click an arrow to reveal, or if watching it on your tv you don’t see at all). So unless we’re talking about a disclaimer edited into the beginning of the video (which means it has to be edited and reuploaded, bringing more attention to it) I’d say privations/deleting is the way to go with the offensive ones, it shows that he actually is ashamed/remorseful enough to hide it.

I agree with almost all of that Dia, but I do think the last part is a bit extreme. I would think if they went seperate ways or just made content that doesn't involve them constently providing fuel to the fans and feeding the enigma, they would still do fine and be youtubers with millions of subscribers who are able to live of it.000dia000 wrote: Sat Feb 17, 2018 10:46 pm Honestly, deppy's reaction/treatment of shipping culture is so fascinating to me. Firstly, how they respond to things and treat everything from the perspective of people who are shipped. While everyone and their mothers' joke about being "shipped" with someone, and some people actively encouraging their fans or audience or whatever to ship them. However, it's very different to see it from the perspective of people who are shipped without their active engagement in the "ship" itself and also shipped so enthusiastically and in such large numbers. "Shipping" is really interesting, particularly seeing what the most popular pairings are on Tumblr: Popular Ships of 2017
. Just look at that. Most popular IRL ship. Like wtf.
