Transcripts
hi I'm not sure you guys have seen my
dog for a while this is my doggy Nala
she's super cute yeah she's like almost
eight years old can you believe it hi
everyone I don't know how to start this
video I don't even really want to post
this video or do this video but I think
it's time to address the obvious for the
past week I have not been posting videos
together with my good friends Craner and
slogo and I think a lot of you are
wondering what is going on it's highly
likely that you've read the title and
unfortunately it is not clickbait I am
leaving slogo and Craner I know and I do
realize that that is a big shock for
most of you like I said some of you
might have realized something is going
on but it's highly likely that this
comes over as a huge shock and that's
why I'm going to get into why I'm
leaving the group group and hopefully by
the end of this video you'll understand
my decision and respect me for it I
guess before we get into it I just want
to say there's no beef okay me and slogo
and Craner were on good terms I've made
this decision of leaving slogo and
Craner after being unhappy and
unmotivated for several months so let me
get into why I've been
unhappy at first I looked Within Myself
and I thought well you know maybe I'm
just done being a YouTuber I have done
this thing this job I don't know if you
can call it a job but sure I've done
this thing for 10 years for over 10
years now and it's been so much fun
however I've grown up a lot of viewers
have grown up and maybe I'm just done
with it and while I was exploring that
idea in my head I came to realize I'm
not done with this at all what would I
do outside of YouTube I would be super
bored I have no education I have no
other passions than being a
YouTuber you guys still show so much
support every single day when I post a
new video and that drives me I love it I
love being a YouTuber I love recording
videos and I'm not done with being a
YouTuber that's not what made me unhappy
so I'm not quitting okay don't worry
however sometimes being a YouTuber and
keeping things interesting for myself
and interesting for the viewers requires
a big change sometimes those big changes
can be completely changing content going
from gaming to real life content or
going from makeup videos to prank
videos in my case case that's not the
case for me that big change is taking on
this YouTube thing on my own for the
past 10 years I have been in a group the
group started with me and quibble cop
and some other guys eventually slogo
joined in and I believe that's like
maybe nine years ago now and that that
went on for a while but all of you
probably know uh quille cop left around
5 years ago and then four years ago
Craner joined but two years ago he
left and then about 10 months ago Craner
joined back so there's been a lot of
changes through my career as a YouTuber
and frankly this
change that I'm going to go through
right now is one of those big changes
that you can add to that list now I
realize that this is going to suck for a
while not just for you as a viewer who
wants to see us playing video games
together and just having fun but also
for slowo and Craner who are going to
have to find a new path and find um a
way how how to play video games with
just a two of them but also for me I'm
going to have to work three times harder
to prepare videos think about ideas and
you know even though it's
harder I'm ready for it I'm ready to
take up another challenge because like I
said you need to keep things interesting
for yourself and I really understand I
really understand that all of you want
me and the boys playing video games
together and having fun but
unfortunately All Good Things eventually
come to an end so really I came to
realize I'm not
unhappy being a YouTuber I unhappy being
in a group and that sucks to say it
really does because I wish those guys
that best but I assume most of you are
going to look for a reason of why I am
unhappy and why I was UN
unmotivated in a group with SLO and
Craner and while I don't really want to
go into the specifics of it I can
definitely say you know when you work
with other people sometimes there are
conflicts and sometimes things just
don't go so well like I said Craner came
back to me and Josh roughly 10 months
ago sometime after um we found out that
our priorities as a group were simply
not aligned anymore the boys have been
focusing a lot on A New Path for them a
new channel which posts amazing videos I
love to watch him it's great content and
so that's really good to see but
unfortunately um their New Path
also didn't include me and you know that
that
sucked it hurt and and even though it
hurts I don't want them to stop pursuing
this new path of theirs together uh
because that would be ridiculous it's
one of the many reasons of why I was
unhappy you know it just sucks being
left out is is is not a good feeling and
we talked about it and they didn't see
it that way and you know it it f it's
fine like it doesn't really matter um I
I I genuinely wish them the best and I'm
subscribed to the channel I love
watching it if I'm going to be unhappy I
don't want to hold them back either you
know especially after working together
for so long but it's okay it doesn't
matter I came to realize everything
happens for a reason and I think that
this time the reason is for me to
completely focus on my own path on solo
content that I haven't been able to EXP
floor before and that way I'll be happy
and I'm not holding the boys back
because I'm unhappy being in a group I
hope that makes sense I still care a lot
about these guys and I I genuinely
consider these guys some of my best
friends and of course we're going to
keep in touch and occasionally you might
see some new videos pop up on my Channel
or their channels where we're playing
games together like like nothing
happened but it's not going to be a
regular thing anymore the fun of being
in a group and recording videos together
a couple of times a week is is done for
me so I am genuinely looking forward to
exploring something new I am aware I'm
going to miss the boys you know I'm
going to miss recording with them but
again if I'm not having fun I'm not
doing it
so it's time to have some fun again I'm
going to try my best to bring you some
amazing entertaining content exploring
things that simply I haven't been able
to do before and potentially picking up
some content that you guys were used to
seen for a long time but you haven't
seen for me for a while like GTA videos
or a city skylines 2 Series now that
they finally fixed all their bugs in the
game and of course I'll be continuing
posting Minecraft it might be mod
reviews there might be some role plays
adventure maps and potentially I might
even continue a Survival series together
with my good buddy doodle who was a pet
Sheep by the way so yes that also means
squ island is officially over and while
slogo and Craner are most likely I I
haven't spoken to them but while they're
most likely going to continue the show
um in their way I'm not continuing Squid
Island in a group I'm going to try and
focus on something new in Minecraft new
survival world like I said um and I'm
really looking forward to it I think I
could bring some amazing ideas to the
show that frankly I don't think YouTube
has seen before and so then what about
our podcast 2/3 well the whole point of
2/3 was to find a third member to record
with that member ended up being Craner
and the show was done we had really no
good way to continue we couldn't we had
talks about how to continue it but we
genuinely couldn't figure it out and
while it was a lot of fun to record the
podcast uh it just kind of died out
lastly I don't want there to be any
rumors so if you have any questions for
me I'd be happy to answer them in the
comment section I really want to thank
all of you for being amazing fans and
supporting me with my decision I know
that a lot of you are going to support
me through this and you're also going to
support Craner and Josh because
frankly I have made this decision and
even though the boys
agree that it is best for me to make
this decision it still sucks for all of
us and I really hope you're going to
stick along for the ride because frankly
I'm not
quitting I've said it a couple times now
I'm still posting one video every single
day and for some reason I'm so motivated
to take on that new journey I have not
felt this motivated to take on a New
Journey for many years so again please
do not worry if there's any beef or
fights or things going on between me and
slogo and Craner it's simply not the
case we've talked everything out and you
might even see a video from them on this
matter too I don't know that's
completely their decision but that's it
I've said it now I love all of you and I
want to thank you for your support and
sticking along with us for this tough
transition but I'm going to see you
tomorrow with a new video and that one's
going to be a lot of fun thank you for
watching bye
