Hello, Zzsark here, I do have to agree with most points of this, specially because I've seen all the things shown here because I'm in the fandom since the premiere of the pilot. I have seen so many dramas, wars and problems that were created in Twitter and in Reddit with art stealers, OC waves and even the beheading of a known OC that didn't belong to the artist who drew her like that, just to say some, in so little time. We only are a year and half old and already with a lot ot stuff that happened, a bit predictable considering the lack of content we had for a whole year while Glitch was doing Meta Runner 3. Now I'm here in this fandom because I like Liam Vickers's Cliffside and specially Internecion Cube, and since he abandoned (suprisingly :000) these 2 shows, this new one had my immediate attention. The show has a great lore and universe, but it's like Glitch is modifiying Liam's script and changes the serious and spooky stuff into a Disney XD channel show, which is horrible because I see such a great pottential in the series, but Glitch just decides to go with what makes everyone happy: wholesome moments and adding more fuel to the ship fire. I have made ship art as well, in fact, the little drawing of N giving a hug to Uzi shown in the video it's my drawing, but I'm known for making a AU comic that went to what made me love Murder Drones, a grim story with a violent outcome, because I think that's the best one can do with this series. But maybe that's just me. I am grateful for every single follower I have and earned with this fandom and I'll keep doing stuff for them and for Liam. Thank you so much for the mention, I really apreciate it.

This show managed to see the light of the day thanks to Glitch Productions.

Recently there was a huge discourse on Tumblr because someone had a plan to ship Uzi and Doll in a fanfiction and gatekeepers felt the need to shut it down hard because they can't handle stories that don't ship Uzi with N, it was insane. Their argument was 'Well, there's a theory that their moms are related so they're cousins!' ...A THEORY. And also 'Well Doll is a killer!' Because N TOTALLY didn't mercilessly slaughter a bunch of worker drones when he first broke into their base and V's TOTALLY never gleefully tortured any worker drones to death, am I right?

I just in the fanfiction/KZread comments side of MD because I’m not too heavily in the fandom, so this is very new to me. The shipping drama is so stupid to me, mainly because I’m used to seeing actually problematic ships (IE 14YO/26YO, siblings, adult and his adopted daughter, etc).

I think this video could apply to a good portion of fandoms.

Sadly, This all goes for other Fandoms as well.

I thought this was going to be another one of those 13 year old kid cope post It's actually really good and you have some amazing points! keep it up!

Honestly I agree with you on this one. Especially the point for low-effort stuff, like- I'd like to watch videos where effort was actually put into it for once in this fandom. It's mainly why I look for art or animations or whatever on Tumblr since at least 50% of the art for Murder Drones that I see there actually has effort put into it.

Am I the only one who never understood these "no low effort" rules in subreddits? I personally think that it's rules like that who make people afraid of posting online when their art isn't at the standard of being amazing or whatever. Some people love drawing and wish to post their drawings to get people to see them, and I'd feel very disheartened if something I spent hours working on was taken down to a "no low effort" rule, because that would tell me that my art that I worked hard on is the equivilant of something being "low-effort". What if I don't want to make a comic with my OC? What if I don't want to write a story about them? What if I'm not interested spending dozens of hours trying to improve my art? I feel like I should be able to post it regardless. But anyway, that's just my opinion, and I'm sorry for the other expiriences you had with the Murder Drones fandom.

Whilst I understand your viewpoint I do want to ask you this. If your not interested in making something that other people will like, why do you want to show it to other people? There is nothing wrong with you drawing your own characters just because you enjoy doing so but the decision to post them online means you are encouraging other people to see it. People on the internet don’t care about your feelings, they just want to see good quality content.

@@unhelpfulcommentary I understand the criticising part, you cannot realistically post art on the internet without somebody saying they don't like it. And I also think it is ridiculous for somebody to post art online and expect everything to be all sunshine and rainbows. However, I'm not refering to those who will critisize artwork, I'm refering to those who will outright remove it because it is not "good enough". In my opinion, while critizism and even hate should be expected, the ability for me to post my art in the first place should not be taken away. And there are also special circumstances where people can physically not be able to improve their art to the quaility of "good content". What if somebody has autism? Or have an impairment in their dominant hand? What if somebody, despite having disabilities, loves drawing, and wants to share their drawings online? Do we say "tough luck, people only want to see good content"? I personally don't think that is a good solution.

Thank you for this - and the fact that this is your LEAST nitpicky video really says something.

I'm gonna be honest, I try to distance myself from fan content because it can ruin the series for me, especially the... 34th style, that stuff is concerning. The only fan content that I can say is pretty true to the source material is the fan comic "Serial designation U". It actually has care put into it and is engaging.

So I have these two friends (the type to play roblox all day and watch gacha on youtube) and they are obsessed with the show, they changed their pfp to N x Uzi ships and constantly spam murder drones ships in the group chat, this includes some questionable stuff, also yes low quality edits as well I came to the show because of Liam, an animator who got invited to make it, and goddam they are kinda ruining the show for me- Anyway idk why I posted this so uhhh yeah, to everyone who read this, have a nice day

At least they haven't learnt the rules of the internet yet.

I was never a fan of the clique edits regardless because I always find them awkward to me. Im also a part of the Murder Drones fandom and I do agree as Ive witnessed some of these arguments. I may or may made a Murder Drones oc of my own(which isnt surprising), but I only use them as a roleplay character for the Murder Drones RP game on roblox. Roleplays do help me flesh out my ocs easier so I have developed some more characteristics about that oc. I might make comics on my oc, or even experiment on their design, though the oc's roblox avatar remains the same because the custom morph category is locked away by robux that I do not have, so I use the typical avatar creator. (Which means Im a tad limited but I still managed to make a decent design.) But overall, I heavily agree with these statements and OH BOY AM I LUCKY TO NOT BE APART OF THAT SIDE OF THE FANDOM-

Jesus Christ, The Fandom is so goddamn terrible i can't even share Murder Drones to my friends anymore, I really enjoy Liam's works and i hate how underrated they are, Murder Drones rose in popularity and surprise surprise, It's community fucking sucks! My friend tried searching MD to give it a try and apparently the first thing he sees is a Video titled "N & V's Sussiest Dates With UZI! (Murder Drones Comic Dub)" Which led to his opinion to it as weird. Don't even get me started on its Tiktok Community. *HELL TO THE NO.* huge waste of a good show. Part of me thinks that MD being targeted to Teenagers plays a huge part of why this happened.

Also, with the “comic dubs”, some of them are good, but most of them are just stealing someone else’s comic, and voicing it.

People just watch murder, drone stuff because they’re waiting on next episode and we all know it takes around like a couple months so we just watch murder drone related stuff it’s just this generation mainly the newer ones

I swear to god, more humans are getting dumber and more pathetic by the second with all these art stealers, and content thieves. Yes, I too am a young creator (11 at the moment) and I am new to the whole fandom type of thing, but just seeing people steal from others is just not cool. I mean, I made a short on playing some Murder Drones music and I know other people had too. What shocks me the most, honestly, is that people enjoy the videos in which have not been edited at all like the one he showed, which just seems to promote more people to do the same thing, and just make low quality edits, in which is doesn’t make it an edit at all. I saw one of the comments saying most of the Murder Drones fandom are kids, and tbh I barely even visit the sites the fandom posts art and more because my parents won’t let me -_- Those accounts stealing stuff HAVE to either be told to stop by the platforms they post on, or simply be banned, and it shocks me how it hasn’t been done yet. It just seems things will never get better, with more wars, dramas, and content stealers across the fandom which may be less educated kids, and some other random people that can’t make their own idea. I may be a crappy KZreadr, but on my perspective, the war has only begun between the good and original content creators of the fandom and the bad content stealer ones. Heck, there are even channels like GLIITCH that uses the profile picture and similar name to the original @GLITCH and post videos based on the new Murder Drones episode, and just uses random clips from the episodes existing, and telling people to click on links in their descriptions that are definitely not safe and have viruses, those also get on my nerves. I just really wished the fandom would improve and be better than what we see currently but is just not happening, and things are expected to get worse. (sorry if what I said doesn’t make sense, my point is just the fandom of Murder Drones currently isn’t that good right now)

As someone who got death threats and was called special Ed in a murder drones fan discord server, I can confirm this fandom is kinda bad. I still kinda like the series tho.

I always felt like i was the only normal one in this fandom, its good to see there is still normal people in this warzone.

Holy christ, I entered this video expecting a rant about the community as a whole but there were actually really good points that I agree with here. Thus is the unfortunate thing of having a part of this fanbase, most of the things that this community makes are low effort. I hate it when I have to literally dig through art to find something good. Not to even mention everything in this video was really well thought out. It wasnt just “I dont like this stop doing it” its genuine advice to an extent. Much appreciated video to see I’m not the only one who thinks this community is for the most part really underwhelming

i hate how literally all of the best webshows constantly get the most annoying fandoms.

Honestly, this should just be common sense but PLEASE. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. Don't harass or even send people death threats over a opinion on a fictional matter. It literally just radiates pure beta male energy

I agree with you however it’s very much possible to make a decent edit only using the cut tool

I don’t have as much of a problem with reaction videos as most people do, but I also consume reaction videos regularly. I don’t watch reactions until I’ve seen the original video, and being able to vicariously experience it for the first time again alongside other people on the internet adds an incredible amount of rewatch value, and fresh perspectives help me notice things I didn’t before. There are a lot of awful reaction channels out there that barely pay attention to what’s going on, and quite a few that also just have nothing of value to add. But like any category of things that are made by people, if you look hard enough you can find a good number of really great reaction channels to watch, run by people who have so much love to give for media and who care about joining in on the discussion or being an entertaining personality in their own right. A good reaction video feels like a group watch party online with other people who are also fans of the show, and they are a godsend to the fans like me who have little to no friends who they can share the fandom experience with.

the show is great, the community is uhhh.. i don't know why you ship 2 characters just because one blushed when they were near the other one, blushing can also mean somebody is embarrassed.

The thing about the edits: I find this to be a major problem across all fandoms (lazy fanworks that somehow get more attention that stuff that has thought put into it). A lot of good editors get dismissed because of this, even though their ideas are far more creative and consider both the music and the clips when creating the edit. I couldn't even get mine past you tube, despite none of the clips being in chronological order, let alone just one long clip with nothing done to it, with even the music being somewhat edited in parts in order to fit the clips better, with transitions, some clips even had the lyrics done to match the music in timing, but also the text was coloured and animated to fit the tone and rhythm... I spent at least three hours on each of these - up to about ten - and prior to that I spent a lot of time thinking of what would look cool, what characters to focus on, what scenes I was already considering to add to what parts of the music, and also finding the lyrics themselves (including translations into English for non-English songs), etc. This isn't included in those three hours spent mostly experimenting and trying to find a cohesive enough, but also varied enough style for lyrics, transitions (if any, because sometimes no transitions are less jarring), special effects, etc. And honestly? It makes me find the fact that some people get past You Tube's ridiculousness with copyrights for stuff I wasn't going to ever make money off of - and wasn't intending to - , that I was only doing out of love for the source material, even more frustrating. (I don't post on You Tube though because all my efforts were for naught, and if I wanted to get past the bs, I would have to do so by using pretty personal information.) Because a lot of the people - including some pretty big channels - either don't do much with the clips, or what they do is repetitive, uncreative and looks absolutely horrible. Tik tok style edits reign supreme, and pushing out an amv/edit as fast as possible after every episode/movie seems to be the goal. Not to celebrate what the content they've created fanworks for, but to get attention out of it. That doesn't scream "fan" to me, that screams "attention seeker", and I hate that's what fandoms can often devolve into. You want to put yourself out there and get an audience? Sure. But deserve that audience by putting a modicum of thought and effort into your products, even if you're not making money off of it -- which some of them are through patreon and the like. (Side note: the whole "rules for thee but not for me" thing also really sucks. Some people get to get away with making a living off someone else's work, whereas others who put more effort into what is essentially also advertisement for that other person's work done as respectfully as possible, do that entirely for free, but don't even get enough appreciation.) Granted, this isn't solely the fandom's problem - it's also you tube's problem and it sucks. But that doesn't make a fandom feel more welcoming when you know that your effort isn't going to be appreciated anyway.

Why i am not surprised it is the FANBASE who ruined the original

I see your point, it makes no sense for them to do... well... stuff like this, when I scroll through reddit, I see people making fan animations, oc's, comics, and theories, some of these have a lot of info or actual effort put into them, but when I hear 'meme', I think of a funny animation, photo, or just something that makes people laugh, not a constantly repeating cycle of the same drawing or photos in the same fucking order on music that I don't find interesting or don't fit the theme, then when I see some oc's I think, just why, some of the stats make no sense, along with the fact that you can't just give them something that someone else has and say it's fine because it's your oc, and even after all of that, most of these guys quite literally don't do anything else, other make make oc's, it takes away the point of something special being associated to one person who achieved it through different means, like Doll and Uzi, some of the shipping is cursed, clickbait drives me annoying and draws in people to boost their channel. Edit: Something that I forgot about were AU's and the Gacha community, the AU's can either be really good, or completely uninspired, and Gacha was already a hot mess with all this 18+, and cringy shit that will literally get people arrested, but then they just HAD to add Murder Drones into it, and then I would either see 18+ content, cringy edits or AU, or some combination of all of them, trust me it happened, I've never seen them, but I know they've happened

small artist here- I agree with low effort content it just doesn't seem right to make a low effort video of a random clip and and just basically claiming it and no credits at all LIKE IT'S NOT THAT HARD TO CREDIT SOMEONE OF THEIR WORK

The first thing that you've mentioned are what everyone calls AMVS or Tributes except the Tributes lost their meaning, the good example of a tribute is Technoblade's tribute with the music from LOL "Legends Never Dies" the music fits well but the entire video is either fanmade animations or clips from technoblade's videos, its what a tribute is supposed to be but it has lost its meaning which is sad, AMVS are basically what you have mentioned from the start, fan edits of the show with music, the music choice is what made AMVS less relevant, the music choice doesn't fit well with the video or the fan edits suck or it could be both, anways both of AMVS and Tributes have alot of blunders when it comes to editing, either the music doesn't fit well with the fan edits or clips or the clips/fan edits just suck in general, finding a good AMV or a Tribute is harder than trying to find that specific video you wanted to watch...

There is this youtuber who reads comics, and they are VERY weird.. it's mostly inappropriate stuff.

Don't forget Animate a Thing, he's a talented 3D artist and animator making a fan animation called "Insecurity".

The fandom of Murder Drones made me have a disdain for Murder Drones itself, and it seems like Digital Circus is going the same way. Probably because the studio made Murder Drones too. Like, WHY IS THERE SO MUCH PORN. JESUS CHRIST. With communities like this, there's either tons of porn of the characters, or the fanbase is cringe. For example, the MHA community has both.

Predictable honestly I still fondly remember before and around MR S3 that there were few MD fans posting about how MR sucks and "Where is MD???" It was since that time I understood that things are going to be... well different than what I was used to seing in smg4 and glitch fandoms....

Thank you, This is very needed especially the shipping part, people will literally comment hate on somebody's opinion, and Thank you for this But yea, all of this is agreeable

This whole series is something I do enjoy a lot, but as Zzsark has probably said in the pinned comment, I also do not like the somewhat toning down on glitch's part with the show. I personally do not even care for shipping, as I find it to be distracting and to use as bait for all the fangirls/boys obsessing over that one specific thing, just bothers me.

I feel bad for the people who take their time editing but getting recognized less.

The thing you said about oc... THAT'S SO ACCURATE BRO ISTG. I agree, if you post your ocs, do something with them, not just slam them somewhere saying "here my oc, enjoy". (And yeah right now i'm working on a comic about my MD oc, i did post 2 drawings of her that don't have any info of her but the thing is i posted them in my own blog on tumblr and not actually in a place where all can see that storyless oc. (i'm working on that, i got her a story in my head).) The other points are good too, i like how you didn't go on a full rampage about ships and actually respect normal (in this context i'm talking about the one's that don't attack other people because they don't like their ship) shippers, it's been and still is a problem in every fandom i'm in - shippers don't respect each other and hating on each other shippers and people that don't ship anyone and the others do that in return. This cycle of hatred and death threats is so annoying and i'm glad to see people that break it. overall nice vid, keep up the good work man 👍

I see nothing wrong with shipping MD characters (unless its problematic or proship, you know what i mean) but honestly, the MD fandom is kinda just making people's opinions seem like bad ones. if someone ships nuzi (or whatever its called), they get attacked because they don't ship NV. Im not trying to say that NV is a bad ship, its just the toxic side of the shippers. i dont think its that hard to just focus more on the lore and try to make theories about the darn show. Also, people need to remember that those silly comic dubs are just sexualizing the characters (most of them are sexualizing the characters) and stealing art. I have seen multiple fanarts just stolen and put on edits, even if the artist says to not repost. As an artist, it just really sucks to see. The MD fandom is absolute doggy doo doo (yes, i said doggy doo doo). Also, theres these ship edits (mainly NV) that say "Nuzi shippers DNI" (Do not interact), but some nuzi shippers dont respect that person's darn requests and comment something like "Im a nuzi shipper but *insert something*!!" (sorry if i worded anything wrong, im sort of bad at explaining stuff). why cant we just get the bad side of the MD fandom to realize how bad theyre making the fandom look???

What if murder drones are just attack helicopters

Did you forget that a smaller minority absolutely sexualizes the f**k out of the Ezi ship? Oh, and J and V aren't safe either. Just take a look at Cougar Macdowall's Thumbnails about murder drones comic dubs. He does it for other shows, and does the same thing. In the thumbnails, he sexualizes it to the point where I just can't even look at the thumbnails without going "Aw hell naw". That's why in the memes, they say that the Envy Ship is better (At least I think so).

I agree that this fandom is terrible because someone made Minecraft skins of characters. That is an extremely diabolical act for someone to do and it means that murder drones sucks now

I completely forgot we can't have a normal fanbase that doesn't make, well... you know what art, why can't I enjoy some masterpieces of art that don't have corn (you know you know) all around it

2:07 I hate these so much. They exist in nearly every fandom and many don't even mention who made the edits/ animations/ etc. (I mean it's still stealing even if they do mention it but that really shows that they put absolutely NO effort into it)

I really enjoy the show but I completely agree with the art problem and think it’s weird how they do it (just look at any of the thumbnails of comics if you search up any comic dubs) and people shoving what they think the correct “ship” into other peoples throats instead of just enjoying it or just saying their opinion and not harassing someone since they have a different opinion.

Well, I agree. Also sad about the shipping. It's actually not a bad thing. Even more - we're all shippers!!! Because shippers are basically fan opinions about couples. And when you start thinking - "hmmm, so who are they going to start dating?" or "have they started dating? But I thought there were hints of the other guy," etc. That already counts as shipping. It's just fallen prey to the internet's most beloved things - absolutizing everything to hypocritically save your own a*ses (=_=) And the second equally favorite, "rewriting and twisting the meanings of words for your own benefit." Where they have reworked the meaning of the word - "shipping" to mean something bad. To blame them for all the troubles and horrors. When they themselves are doing the same thing but in peace. Or pro-shippers. Oooh this is crazy. In fact, proschipers - is someone who respects others for their fictional pairings irregardless of their own feelings toward said pairing. Like you here - "Please don't hate others opinions and ships" This is literally it. But now the proshippers are the crazy people who support inc*st, twinc*st and a bunch of other sh*t. This word has been turned into a complete nightmare just for them to have a scapegoat. Completely ignoring the original source of the problem, the crazy shippers who supported this sh*t in the first place. And there are many such examples. The most obvious example is asexuals. They've been turned into some kind of artifacts that can't be touched or even looked at, or they'll be traumatized. Who can neither have s*x nor be a couple. This is especially true of fictional characters(because they simply can't do anything about as i'm like to call them "Crazy protectors"). Although in reality they are people with a lack of sexual attraction. They're just not very interested in having s*x. They can love, they can have a couple, they can have a family. Even more, they may well have s*x if they have a purpose for it - to have offspring, for example. And what they usually describe have other names: Anti-sexual - People who hate sexual relations in any form. And who would never engage in such a thing. ( Yet they may have a couple and be in love) Anti-Romantic - Literally the same thing but in reverse. They hate love and couples but may have sexual relations. And AroAce is anti-sexual and anti-romantic all in one. But most people are like: - okay. We going treat asexuals like AroAce. But overdoing to the state of absolute madness. While completely not giving a damn about the other three. As always(=_=)

Okay so hear me out. The fandom is terrible. The fanarts are

i have a bit of experience with each of these points, and just wanted to put my input on them 1. editting (specifically the edits you mentioned) has no standards whatsoever. there's going to be a place where someone starts and putting clips together can be a beginning. 2. the compilations have always been a problem for animations, no comment there. 3. again, people start with a lot of stuff (especially art). anything involving the creation of something is going to take a long process to improve upon. there's going to be people with ocs no matter where you are, i'd just recommend not bashing them for just ocs but the stealing stuff is understandable (i'm not in the discord, so i'm not sure what happens there.) 4. shipping is alright in my eyes. i have no comment about it but i've weighed it down to depend on the media in question. 5. i'll just say: you do you. you can't expect much from a fandom, especially since it is relatively new and getting more known at the moment.
