The state of the Jacksepticeye community.

chaenir-sam:

I have stated this a couple of weeks ago and it seems that my assumptions were not wrong.
I said that this fandom is decreasing in safety at an alarming rate. Sadly it is true. I’ve personally wanted to speak up and talk to Jack personally about this for a while now and sadly to even today, he hasn’t realized it.
I know its understandable for a creator to stay out of their own fandom drama but honestly I am worrying for the safety and the good atmosphere our fandom is known for. Coming across as a social media manager, or an advocate or representative of the fandom is not my intention.
I just really, really want Jack to atleast be aware of what’s going on behind the scenes in his own fandom.

Harassment:

People are harassing eachother, and I see it more and more each day. Not only on Tumblr, but on twitter, the youtube comments, or even on discord servers.

There is a girl harassing Jack and Wiishu on Twitter.
There are friends of mine being harassed and blamed for abuse.
There are minors who are toxic to other fellow fans in a way of guilt-tripping.
People hate on eachother for the fact that they enjoy Anti’s existance.

Art-theft:

Before I saw that gifs from @marielgum, @lum1natrix, @irosl6, @markired, @booperdoopcr, the deactivated blog jacksepticeyegifs were being stolen every once in a while.
Now I see it happen every single day. I’m filing reports everyday now.

For your aesthetic blogs: Stop stealing edits
For your “imagine”blogs: Stop stealing gifs
For any other fan account with compliations of anything in this fandom
REBLOG. DONT REPOST.

Caption abuse:

How many more times do I need to speak up about this? I am a freelance captioner and since a few months, every video I watch, I see incorrect captions.
They are not there for your own fun! They are a tool for the hearing impaired! Its not cute or quirky to write your own comments there!

This is what I see in the captions in every video:
Self-made comments
Selfpromotion
People putting words in Jack’s mouth
People captioning in zalgo text
Putting in fake Anti hints
Full on caps-lock captions
People putting in random words
And this way I could rant about it for ages.

TL;DR

Jack I am seriously concerned and I’d love an opportunity  to speak up to the entire fandom about this.
It’s not fun anymore to see your hard work being stolen.
It’s not fun to see people mess up captions for other people.
It’s not fun to see your friends being abused by other fans.

Stop the toxicity.
Please Jack. I beg you to be atleast somewhat aware of what’s going on. People you reblog everyday are harassing other fans behind the scenes. Its devastating to see toxic community members get praise, Its devastating for artists to see you reblog stolen fanart or gifs sometimes. And personally, it hurts a lot to see people like the “funny captions you put in” on videos.
