I have to agree with others that, while I check the occasional video, I don't like his style. I love Linus's video's I just wish he'd input his opinion about the product more often in overviews.

I loved Elric's answer 

 

At the beggining I didnt like elric too much

I actually hate it, and not because himself

I just watched him making fun of Rodney Reynolds (3DGameMan)

And didnt like that attitude.. However he bought me with his music skills

 

but since I have been following him I feel that he has grow as a person and as a blogger

He got tricked and then fired from the channel he built so hard. Then he started his new one.

I thought he got hacked?

No it was through his "partner" agency "Channel Pro".

Once he created his other YouTube channel I believe he made a video letting people know what happened. You should be able to find it on his channel: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNJP0oF6k62xA_qhCLfwI-Q

 

 

So, what language am I speaking? :>

Well your typing in English, but from the screenshot it seems you are from Romania because the YouTube language defaulted to Romanian. (I only know this because I speak Romanian, Both my parents are Romanian).

Elric is great. I didn't know he had a yt for a while after he left motherboards and was replaced by that really creepy dude.

 

His new channel is pretty good. I went to his channel if I want in-depth review/unboxing (also to TTL channel).

I don't know if he still does this but back on motherboards whenever he would open a box he would throw if off screen and add like a "crash" sound effect. haha

He isn't really much of an indef reviewer, he is more of read the box and gives you a look at the product sort of a reviewer. TTL is the opposite end of the spectrum where singularity computers, tastyPC, and monster mawd are being in depth and say more of what they like and dislike.

I will make a cynical comment.  My opinion, however, is that it is a realistic comment.

 

We should understand that most "YouTubers" are kind to each other for a very specific reason.  That reason is to attract the subscribers of other similar channels.  An example of this would be Logan.  It is in Logan's best interest to befriend Linus because it will result in many more subscriptions to his own channel.

 

With that said, of course Logan is befriending Linus because they have an incredible amount in common.  Indeed it would be easy to say that it is a mutual, non-greedy, friendly act.  And I do believe the friendships are genuine.  When Elric defends Linus, it's because he can do one of 3 things:  agree with the hateful post, disagree with the hateful post, or say nothing about the hateful post.  It only makes pure sense which option Elric takes, and that is to defend Linus.  This is because 1) Elric is sincere in his post, and 2) knows it would get him more subscriptions.

 

Disagree with that?  Look at how many posts are fawning over Elric and saying he is a great guy, which by the way, he is.  I am certain that he got plenty of notifications today about new subscribers.  I witness this in other "circles" as well, including the Starcraft 2 casters clique.

 

In conclusion, I am not saying that what has occurred is in pure selfishness on Elric's part to get more subscribers.  What I do believe is that he has profited from the nasty YouTube post.  Sometimes this is how the world works, sadly.

That was bullshit how he got ousted from his own channel/website. 

 

Happens all the time with corporate.  They are all about making money no matter the burned bridges.  I know someone that had this happen to him with his business in New Zealand.

So you say that elric said that just to get some subscribers?

I don't think so
