PewDiePie deletes videos after fans claim YouTuber JacksFilms copied him PewDiePie, JacksFilms \/ YouTubeWhile YouTube king Felix \u201cPewDiePie\u201d Kjellberg has become a self-certified \u201cMinecraft YouTuber,\u201d the Swede is also known for such shows as \u201cMeme Review\u201d and \u201cLast Week I Asked You\u201d \u2013 a show that has met another YouTuber with serious backlash. John \u201cJacksfilms\u201d Douglass is a popular creator on the platform, boasting well over four million subscribers at the time of writing and having a storied history with the site \u2013 but a number of PewDiePie fans aren\u2019t happy with some of Douglass\u2019s content. The YouTuber Tweeted his frustrations about a group of PewDiePie\u2019s fans accusing him of copying Kjellberg\u2019s show, \u201cLast Week I Asked You\u201d (generally shortened to \u201cLWIAY\u201d), in comparison to Douglass\u2019s own \u201cYesterday I Asked You\u201d (\u201cYIAY\u201d) segment. However, Douglass\u2019s \u201cYIAY\u201d show precedes PewDiePie\u2019s \u201cLWIAY\u201d by several years, with the first episode airing on February 3 of 2015 \u2013 a fact that he made sure to mention in his Tweet on the subject. \u201cIt\u2019s extra frustrating because not only did I address it in a video last year, but so did Pewds, and he even urged his viewers to \u2018check the dates\u2019 if they didn\u2019t believe him\/me,\u201d Douglass wrote. \u201cNothing works lol.\u201d It’s extra frustrating because not only did I address it in a vid last year, but so did pewds, and he even urged his viewers to “”check the dates”” if they didn’t believe him\/me. Nothing works lol weeeeee \u2014 jacksfilms (@jacksfilms) August 14, 2019 PewDiePie took notice of the issue and replied to Douglass\u2019s Tweet, apologizing for the drama and claiming that he\u2019d deleted his videos poking fun at the situation, as things had gotten out of hand. \u201cDamn, I think one of my older videos got put in recommended by YouTube and that\u2019s why,\u201d Kejllberg responded. \u201cI took down any videos joking about it because clearly this is too far. Sorry bruv.\u201d Ah shit dude I didn’t mean for you to delete anything! I know you’ve gone out of your way to explain the joke before. I’m guessing these comments came from newer Tseries\/Minecraft subs who didn’t know the “”lore”” \u2014 jacksfilms (@jacksfilms) August 14, 2019 Despite the chaos, JacksFilms was generally understanding of the issue, noting that the recent wave of backlash was likely due to \u201cnewer T-Series\/Minecraft subs who didn\u2019t know the \u2018lore.\u2019\u201d While PewDiePie\u2019s \u201cLWIAY\u201d and \u201cMeme Review\u201d shows are hits with fans, the YouTuber has since returned to his roots in video games, uploading consistent Minecraft videos to become what he calls a certifiable \u201cMinecraft YouTuber.\u201d Sitting at over 99 million subscribers, the Swede is well on his way to reaching his coveted 100 million subscriber goal \u2013 although exactly when he will pass the milestone is up in the air.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
