Freight Trains don’t stop for Barking Dogs. Small people will always try to spread negativity. Keep your momentum and leave the negativity behind you. Gird your Loins and move your vision forward.
Why are you apologizing, people can buy and watch what they want.. they don’t care for the extra videos so be it. Everyone cuts their own deal in life.
It's so crazy that people are so used to getting things free that they get upset if someone tries to charge for content. This is what he does for a living. How do you think he pays for the boats, food, fuel etc for these trips? Keep up the good work Bobby, it's all good.
Bobby, I haven’t had the time to watch the movie yet, but sent along a contribution. You and Amanda are great together and I love being entertained by you. Keep up the great work.
You do a great job. Love your adventures and sailing videos. If someone doesn't like it, they don't have to watch. Sail on and be Happy my friend. Old sailor of 80 yrs. 🙂
Love the channel, it really helps me break up some tough days at work. Dont pay any mind to those who come at you with the negative BS. Keep up the great work, great channel, you, Amanda, and guests all have a positive effect on your viewers. Best to all of you!
Bobby. You do you and please continue everything you do. People need to back off. You are 100% doing the right thing and looking out for your livelyhood. Your videos are excellent and there is content there for everyone both free and paid. People just need to check themselves. You are one of the best creators on RUclips!
I'm more than happy to support small business. I've followed and supported you for years Bobby, paid for the full version and will continue to support you mate. Forget those that sit (un)happily in their homes and throw negativity at people living their lives such as you. They are NOT worth your time. Keep doing what you're doing.
I think you’re great! Been watching you for a few years! I’m a 59 year old single woman and love your content! The girls on your boats keep me inspired to stay in shape. I get to dream about the ocean everyday because of your great video’s! Ignore the haters!
Damn Bobby, I hope you keep it up dude. Been with you since I saw the video of you and the boys sitting in your almost bare apartment, describing your life, your hopes and dreams for your future, and more. Glad you can make living doing what you love, don’t let the haters get you too far off the beam. You’re doing a fantastic job!
Keep your head up I understand your frustration. I have a Drive-in and get people all the time who complain about things often and some people just have nothing better to do. Have been following you for years and enjoy the places an Crews you have put together. I appreciate the hours of unseen work you do. Keep it up going to watch it tonight after work. Happy to pay the fee. Thanks.
Negative people are just looking for stuff to wine about. They clearly didn't listen when you announced a while back what you were doing and the fact that it was optional! Keep up the great work! Your channel is the best!
Don't apologize for showing what life is like on boats in a warm environment. We watch because we have a mix of the work and the fun , real life. Keep up the good work I enjoy your shows.
I watch a lot of sailing videos I enjoy all of them weather your fixing the boat, sailing or going to happy hour . Just keep doing what you do I will watch
Bobby, I follow a fellow that demos guns and can shoot extremely well. He has been doing it for some time and has received a lot of negativity recently. He just put out a blog talking about it. Some people are just plain jealous no matter what. Love your show, been watching from the start!
Have watched since you and the dogs made a solo 19 day cruise as a subscriber. Today after hearing this I am a paid member. People suck. Just keep doing what you do. Started living on a boat 3 years ago when I moved back from Germany to US. You were part of the inspiration.
It's so hard to do what you do and not let the haters get to you. I *KNOW* you work hard to create quality, engaging, entertaining content. And you do a great job. I've been following you since your very first season, and I appreciate the work you put in to your channel(s).
Just put the disclaimer these videos are for educational purposes Only. That seems to work for allot of shows showing to much skin. Your my favorite channel and I dont even sail, just love the adventure. I think those with hurt feelings may just think they are losing their favorite channel. Keep up the good work! Love the channel.
Feel your pain and frustration with the negative feedback directed your way. Rather would hear about your positive feedback and the best of that. Already too much negativity in the world. Resist giving the complainers air time. Praise the positive. Relish in the good guys and gals that appreciate what you do.
Bobby, there are many similar messages to you but here is ours. Keep doing what you’re doing and works for you! We enjoy your content and very much appreciate that you create so much of it. Thank you…and Amanda❤️
Thanks Bobby, I am one who doesn’t like the clickbait that you sometimes do and never wondered why because your channel usually is great. Thanks for explaining why. I appreciate your content and hope RUclips changes their model to encourage real content instead of the other junk that is out there. Keep it up, it’s great.
Bobby you are giving it more attention than it is worth. People love to give their anonymous opinions on here and then run. Your content is very enjoyable, I have been watching for years and I enjoy it so much. I would love to do what you do and I believe many on here would love it too. For now, we enjoy watching your adventures. Keeping doing what you do.
Keep doing what you do. No need to pay attention to the negativity and you should never apologize for featuring beautiful women. Much of the appeal of your channel is the chance to live vicariously through your adventures. The covid years would have been that much more depressing without channels like yours to keep our spirits up. Heck, they should give you a medal in my opinion. I gladly paid for the video and enjoyed it. Keep them coming.
I have been watching you since you started in your Mono Hull and now in your double Hull with the very beautiful Amanda. Good for you and keep up the good work, and by the way don't let a few jerks that don't understand what you are doing ruin it for those of us that really enjoy your work.
Bobby, there are way too many loyal fans of yours to worry about the few persons who fault you for trying to make a living. Keep up the fun content as we live vicariously through you!
Bobby, you guys put out great content. Your story inspired me to get into sailing, I am up to ASA104. I was supposed to make it to one of your Floatillas last year, but I couldn't. I hope to make it to one soon. I love how you always show both the beautiful and sometimes the horrors of sailing life. Thank you and your multiple crew for all you guys do. IDC what these idiots say, these people have not been following you very long. This is why I am a subscriber of yours Patreon. I know it's frustrating reading all these negative comments, but keep going man! I have always enjoyed your content.
I am unable to ne a patron but do enjoy your clips & have followed you for a number of years. I have been places, seen part of our Beautiful world i will never get too. I have learned so much about sailing as well. These stories thru your eyes have been wonderful. Thanks a million.
Most of all your subscribers appreciate and understand how hard you work at all this. You shouldn’t worry about the few noisy negative people. Keep up the good work.
Love ya Bobby and Amanda!! You have awesome content, and make awesome videos!! Keep on Keeping on, and leave the negative behind you and mash forward!! Look forward to future content and your new rig when it comes in. Will be looking to increase from just subscribing. to becoming a patreon member too!! God Bless!!
👍✅🏝 I for one still love all doodles content. Haters will be haters Bobby. You work too hard and for too long to let those few people get you down. You know the more you engage with them the more they will negative comment. Just keep doing your thing man. As we used to say in the islands, "Joke em if they can't take a F*ˆ@ "
Last I heard we all had freedom of choice. Bobby has chosen a very speculative way to earn a living. He has responded to people who wanted something more than what appears on the regular channel. He was very clear that it was a pay per view, and what the content was. If you wanted to watch, you did. If you didn’t want to, that was your choice, just scroll on by! Bobby, I personally elected not to watch, but I commend you for responding to your viewers with extra content. You and your crew keep doing what you want to do. Don’t let the haters get in your way.
Bobby, been following for a while. You run your business the way you see fit. Nobody is entitled to your videos. You put them where and how you want. Now hoping it is not interpreted as hate or negativity. I do see a big change from one focused on sailing issues, long voyages, with cute crew into a channel where the actual sailing seems secondary. Hopefully when you get your cat you go back to cruising ariund the world.
Don't worry about the complaints about the vemeo movie, a lot of channels do the same. As to the YT restrictions, it's a major hit. Peter Coulson, an Aussie Photog, put up a video tribute to his long time assistant, friend, employee, model and muse. He had to take it down and re-edit it and replace it with a kid friendly version because YT deemed that it was too sexual. Note, there was not a single nude image in the video. The most was implied nude, with Bec actually wearing clothes or a bikini. SV Delos, Lauren, Lonestar all got hit with demonitization because they had someone wearing a thong
Keep positive. I know first hand the few bad apples weigh heavy and can absolutely make you walk away from doing what you love just to not listen to the BS anymore.
I watch because the content is fun and adventurous! Keep it up! I hope to cruise the Bahamas someday possibly in one of your floaturas. I don't think I've missed an episode since I discovered RUclips during covid. Thanks for the fun videos. I look forward to seeing them all the time!
Bobby- I started watching your channel when you were crossing the pacific and I really liked the sailing portion and the bikini portions were an added feature that was great. I have zero issue with your content at all. I'm a tech type of person so I like the boat fixing and upgrading videos, thats just the real portion of sailing. I have to say that I've really enjoyed Amanda on your channel and its great that you two are a couple. If she is fine with the bikini portions of the videos then I don't know what people have a problem with. Just watch some of the nighttime TV shows these days, they show more than you do on some of those episodes. I have not paid for an downloaded the movie yet, but plan to do so this weekend. I can't wait for the new boat content to come out.
i watch a real lot of you tubers so i cannot subscribe to anyone ,but its thanks to you tubers you one of them people like me can see many things i love seeing other countrys mostly japan, never had an holiday so i see them on line i see sailing series which i love and so on.
Content is fine. Haters be haters. I remember when you started in your empty apartment as an ex-pilot. I do miss the doodles, but keep doing your Job!!! Be Great and enjoy Your Life!
Hello beautiful you tube followers . I would honestly like to say I have followed Bobby from the time he bought his first boat in Kema TX. And to be truthful Bobby is a honest and good man and takes pride in his content. Please recognize the negative comments when he absolutely did not intend to upset anyone . So please take in to consideration Bobby was honestly making a video / movie with no intention to discredit or harm anyone . You can see by his explanation in this video he cares what his viewers think . It hurts him for some of the negative reviews
Bobby, I have consistently watched you for over five years and always look forward to your videos. Some people like coffee, and some people like tea. If you had 10,000 people unsubscribe rather than 50 it would still make no difference. Just keep giving people options and keep sailing. You have a beautiful boat coming soon and have worked hard for it. Good luck and enjoy the ride!
I really liked you giving the historical breakdown of the sailing vlogs. I remember watching DeVos. It’s awesome you are familiar with the those other producers. I enjoy the little bit of titillation. It’s just a part of the fun stuff that is available on your channel. The views of the environment and the technical requirements of sailing are just as fun though. I must say I think you are a very good narrator. Enough clear details of what is going on without blabbering on endlessly. That goes for all your channel’s. Good job, keep it up please.
There is so much negativity all over now days! If you don’t like it move on! Y’all keep doing what you do!! Most of use love what you do and how you do it!! There are some that will never be happy! You give them a silver spoon they are pissed that it’s not gold!!
It was a great rant. From an old crappy C&C with two pups to an upcoming hybrid cat is a significant growth curve. It's a fine line to stay on balance but you can't make everyone happy. Being a RUclips celebrity brings its own set of challenges. Great explanation of what is happening in your business. It is a business. Keep it up.
I paid. I watched. I enjoyed. Love Amanda and the other ladies. I’ve been to the BVI a long time ago. Nice to see it again. I’m totally supportive. You’re an amazingly resourceful creative adventurer and I enjoy following you. Keep on keepin on. Cheers
I wouldn't stress over the negativity too much Bobby. You are living your dream with friends, and what could be better than that for the short period of time we have on this Earth? You've already had a close call with the grim reaper and know all too well the value of being happy. I personally don't watch anymore because I like more wholesome family sailing videos, but I'm certainly not going to knock what you do. Just keep on enjoying your friends, life and seeing the world.
That you are so clued up about AI and how it will take over, makes me certain you will be one of the few surviving channels. Open AI showed off a text to video tool called Sora which is pretty scary if you think about the potential scope for fakery and abuse. Interesting video, thanks for sharing.
Unfortunately there will always be someone that will be a hater. I have a video out on replacing raw water impellar that only has 130ish K viewers....guess what, there are hate comments. Keep doing what your doing Bobby, you have great content and most of us here support that. You will never get away from some haters.
I completely get the frustration, you work hard on something, invest time and money and a few jackasses attack it, worst of all they are saying things that are untrue about people they don't know. I plan to watch the video tomorrow morning, it looks fun. People are crossing the line, this isn't their channel, this is Bobby's channel and he owns the content. He owns his business and it is up to nobody other than him what he decides to do with it.
As I remember it you ask us if we would like a longer video or a movie if you will,I said yes and obviously many others said yes.With that being said you deserve the rant,I love you content you're very professional and hey you gotta love the Ladies...Keep doing what your doing I'll be watching.
I have been watching for several years. I agree with all the positive comments below. Stay calm and don't focus on the very few negatives and focus on all the many positives!
Bobby thanks for doing this talk. Ignore those people. As you said the social media platforms cause a lot of negative comments. People get upset their jollies being negative. Love your stuff. And Amanda. I can’t afford to be a patron but you do a great video for me. I will pay to look at the video
Ignore the trolls. Do what you do. I admire your (usual) positivity and unwillingness to discuss previous bad experiences/relationships, etc. Same for the choice to not display nudity.
Negative people thrive on turning everything into negativity. Ignore them. it will drive them crazy. And besides, while they are dissing you, they aren't dissing anyone else. You are preforming a service!
Bobby: Don't fear A.I. for content. Given the difficulties and challenges of technology and the very broad spectrum of English pronunciation, A.I. generated videos will probably long be detectable. I have an idea for preventing those goofs, but I don't want to make it easy for the disreputable pseudo-creators. Similarly, I don't think TikTok or other short form content poses much risk. Uniformly, those are 98% incredibly stupid content. RUclips keeps slipping shorts into my feed and I am happy to close them, well except for Cleo who appropriately uses it to advertise her excellent content.
Bobby, you don't (and shouldn't have) to apologize for anything you do. Fans will be fans and negative-Nancy's will be negative-Nancy's. Keep your head up!
Can't believe anybody's sending you negative comments . I think you do a fantastic job ,Amanda adds a whole new fun aspect to sailing doodles keep up the great work Hope to see you on the water . keep up the great content
Love the channel! I actually had to try to add this. You can please all of the people some of the time. You can please some of the people all of the time. But you can’t please all of the people all of the time. I have an incredible interest in sailing because of your channel. Be you. It works. Thanks!
It has been interesting to see how your channel has changed over the years. I think part of the sailing youtube thing is that there are just so many sailing channels out there now, it's just crazy how many there are. As a side note: I think the best thing that ever happened for youtube in general is the ability of more and more people to buy drones, they just make so many more shots available that years ago would have required a real helicopter to get the similar shots and they probably would have not been as good.
I sence your frustration and I totally understand that this is your main means if income. People today have to shit on people for some reason. It's easy for me to say let the haters be haters but its so much more as it directly impacts you making a living. I think the majority of us realize that you work very hard and it hurts that some will disparage your efforts. Just know that most love your videos and appreciate that you are willing to try something new. Thank you!
This is a cool channel. Appreciate it! Joe Rogan has discussed at length about the minority vocal 1% in these comments. Actually not a true reflection of the other vast majority who watches, likes, and never comment. His conclusion is to ignore comments.
Hey Bobby, Subscriber and Patron for years. Your content and production value is top notch. The 99% loves your work. The 1% has, unfortunately, nothing better to do than hate. Hey Viewers, Join me in pissing off the haters, even more, by purchasing "the video".
Keep your head up, Bobby! Don't apologize for living your life and doing what makes you happy. I'd love to be able to be in your shoes and sail around the world seeing all these beautiful places. I look forward to more of your content. Dylan Lowe.
Don’t get discouraged. You’ve come a long way. Stay creative and enjoy yourself.
Freight Trains don’t stop for Barking Dogs. Small people will always try to spread negativity. Keep your momentum and leave the negativity behind you. Gird your Loins and move your vision forward.
"Gird your loins"? Pal, it's You Tube, not war!
@@thomasbrown782
Good point. Perhaps I went a step too far.
Why are you apologizing, people can buy and watch what they want.. they don’t care for the extra videos so be it. Everyone cuts their own deal in life.
I didnt see him apologizing for anything
By my estimation 10-15 percent of all you-tube commenters are toxic posters/people
I agree 100%
You're doing a great job don't worry about the negativity
It's so crazy that people are so used to getting things free that they get upset if someone tries to charge for content. This is what he does for a living. How do you think he pays for the boats, food, fuel etc for these trips? Keep up the good work Bobby, it's all good.
Bobby, I haven’t had the time to watch the movie yet, but sent along a contribution. You and Amanda are great together and I love being entertained by you. Keep up the great work.
Don't apologize for making a living. I enjoy the channel and like the option of getting some extra content that's well done.
Some people just can’t accept “live and let live.” Yet they want to do whatever they please. Keep the Faith.
You do a great job. Love your adventures and sailing videos. If someone doesn't like it, they don't have to watch.
Sail on and be Happy my friend. Old sailor of 80 yrs. 🙂
These negative people are obviously JEALOUS of your PERSONALITY, LIFESTYLE and SUCCESS. Keep it up captain.
Just ignore the haters, they will go away. Been a patron long time, never not enjoyed your videos, keep it up.
Love the channel, it really helps me break up some tough days at work. Dont pay any mind to those who come at you with the negative BS. Keep up the great work, great channel, you, Amanda, and guests all have a positive effect on your viewers. Best to all of you!
Love what you do and completely understand what you do and why. Keep doing what you enjoy and many people love.
Bobby. You do you and please continue everything you do. People need to back off. You are 100% doing the right thing and looking out for your livelyhood. Your videos are excellent and there is content there for everyone both free and paid. People just need to check themselves. You are one of the best creators on RUclips!
I am not able to be a patron, but I enjoy seeing places that I know I will never be able to see through your camera lens and I thank you for sharing.
Unfortunately, haters gonna hate. Just do what you do. I got a copy of it and loved the full thing. Your true fans don't post negative comments.
Hate is a strong word how about using dislike or ???. Don’t step into there world. Cheers!!
Their world
I'm more than happy to support small business. I've followed and supported you for years Bobby, paid for the full version and will continue to support you mate. Forget those that sit (un)happily in their homes and throw negativity at people living their lives such as you. They are NOT worth your time. Keep doing what you're doing.
I think you’re great! Been watching you for a few years! I’m a 59 year old single woman and love your content! The girls on your boats keep me inspired to stay in shape. I get to dream about the ocean everyday because of your great video’s! Ignore the haters!
Damn Bobby, I hope you keep it up dude.
Been with you since I saw the video of you and the boys sitting in your almost bare apartment, describing your life, your hopes and dreams for your future, and more.
Glad you can make living doing what you love, don’t let the haters get you too far off the beam.

I believe the large majority of us seriously appreciate the content! Gives us a look at something that we would love to do!
Keep your head up I understand your frustration. I have a Drive-in and get people all the time who complain about things often and some people just have nothing better to do. Have been following you for years and enjoy the places an Crews you have put together. I appreciate the hours of unseen work you do. Keep it up going to watch it tonight after work. Happy to pay the fee. Thanks.
I've been watching your channel since day one. Always entertaining. You are the only sailing channel I still regularly view.
Negative people are just looking for stuff to wine about. They clearly didn't listen when you announced a while back what you were doing and the fact that it was optional! Keep up the great work! Your channel is the best!

Sorry to hear people are being so horrible, just concentrate on the positives. Cheers

Hello beautiful you tube followers . I would honestly like to say I have followed Bobby from the time he bought his first boat in Kema TX. And to be truthful Bobby is a honest and good man and takes pride in his content. Please recognize the negative comments when he absolutely did not intend to upset anyone . So please take in to consideration Bobby was honestly making a video / movie with no intention to discredit or harm anyone . You can see by his explanation in this video he cares what his viewers think . It hurts him for some of the negative reviews
Bobby, I have consistently watched you for over five years and always look forward to your videos. Some people like coffee, and some people like tea. If you had 10,000 people unsubscribe rather than 50 it would still make no difference. Just keep giving people options and keep sailing. You have a beautiful boat coming soon and have worked hard for it. Good luck and enjoy the ride!
I really liked you giving the historical breakdown of the sailing vlogs. I remember watching DeVos. It’s awesome you are familiar with the those other producers. I enjoy the little bit of titillation. It’s just a part of the fun stuff that is available on your channel. The views of the environment and the technical requirements of sailing are just as fun though. I must say I think you are a very good narrator. Enough clear details of what is going on without blabbering on endlessly. That goes for all your channel’s. Good job, keep it up please.
There is so much negativity all over now days! If you don’t like it move on! Y’all keep doing what you do!! Most of use love what you do and how you do it!! There are some that will never be happy! You give them a silver spoon they are pissed that it’s not gold!!
Your videos are positive and remind me of my boating days of fun in the sun. Keep up the good work!
I love the way you addressed this
Way worth it Bobby, I hope to see a few more of these in the future. It's a lot of work and I can appreciate what you've put into it.
It was a great rant. From an old crappy C&C with two pups to an upcoming hybrid cat is a significant growth curve. It's a fine line to stay on balance but you can't make everyone happy. Being a RUclips celebrity brings its own set of challenges. Great explanation of what is happening in your business. It is a business. Keep it up.
I paid. I watched. I enjoyed. Love Amanda and the other ladies. I’ve been to the BVI a long time ago. Nice to see it again. I’m totally supportive. You’re an amazingly resourceful creative adventurer and I enjoy following you. Keep on keepin on. Cheers
I wouldn't stress over the negativity too much Bobby. You are living your dream with friends, and what could be better than that for the short period of time we have on this Earth? You've already had a close call with the grim reaper and know all too well the value of being happy. I personally don't watch anymore because I like more wholesome family sailing videos, but I'm certainly not going to knock what you do. Just keep on enjoying your friends, life and seeing the world.
That you are so clued up about AI and how it will take over, makes me certain you will be one of the few surviving channels. Open AI showed off a text to video tool called Sora which is pretty scary if you think about the potential scope for fakery and abuse. Interesting video, thanks for sharing.
Unfortunately there will always be someone that will be a hater. I have a video out on replacing raw water impellar that only has 130ish K viewers....guess what, there are hate comments. Keep doing what your doing Bobby, you have great content and most of us here support that. You will never get away from some haters.
I completely get the frustration, you work hard on something, invest time and money and a few jackasses attack it, worst of all they are saying things that are untrue about people they don't know. I plan to watch the video tomorrow morning, it looks fun. People are crossing the line, this isn't their channel, this is Bobby's channel and he owns the content. He owns his business and it is up to nobody other than him what he decides to do with it.
As I remember it you ask us if we would like a longer video or a movie if you will,I said yes and obviously many others said yes.With that being said you deserve the rant,I love you content you're very professional and hey you gotta love the Ladies...Keep doing what your doing I'll be watching.
I have been watching for several years. I agree with all the positive comments below. Stay calm and don't focus on the very few negatives and focus on all the many positives!
Bobby thanks for doing this talk. Ignore those people. As you said the social media platforms cause a lot of negative comments. People get upset their jollies being negative. Love your stuff. And Amanda. I can’t afford to be a patron but you do a great video for me. I will pay to look at the video
Ignore the trolls. Do what you do. I admire your (usual) positivity and unwillingness to discuss previous bad experiences/relationships, etc. Same for the choice to not display nudity.
Negative people thrive on turning everything into negativity. Ignore them. it will drive them crazy. And besides, while they are dissing you, they aren't dissing anyone else. You are preforming a service!
We love Sailing Doodles!! From Vancouver and will continue to follow your great content.
Bobby don't apologize it's fine you do a great job and regardless of what you do folks will complain ignore them.
Bobby: Don't fear A.I. for content. Given the difficulties and challenges of technology and the very broad spectrum of English pronunciation, A.I. generated videos will probably long be detectable. I have an idea for preventing those goofs, but I don't want to make it easy for the disreputable pseudo-creators.
Similarly, I don't think TikTok or other short form content poses much risk. Uniformly, those are 98% incredibly stupid content. RUclips keeps slipping shorts into my feed and I am happy to close them, well except for Cleo who appropriately uses it to advertise her excellent content.
Bobby, you don't (and shouldn't have) to apologize for anything you do. Fans will be fans and negative-Nancy's will be negative-Nancy's. Keep your head up!
Can't believe anybody's sending you negative comments . I think you do a fantastic job ,Amanda adds a whole new fun aspect to sailing doodles keep up the great work Hope to see you on the water . keep up the great content
Don’t worry about the hater’s
I have been watching for years and enjoy the content. You will never please everyone!
Love the channel! I actually had to try to add this.
You can please all of the people some of the time. You can please some of the people all of the time. But you can’t please all of the people all of the time.
I have an incredible interest in sailing because of your channel. Be you. It works. Thanks!
It has been interesting to see how your channel has changed over the years. I think part of the sailing youtube thing is that there are just so many sailing channels out there now, it's just crazy how many there are. As a side note: I think the best thing that ever happened for youtube in general is the ability of more and more people to buy drones, they just make so many more shots available that years ago would have required a real helicopter to get the similar shots and they probably would have not been as good.
I sence your frustration and I totally understand that this is your main means if income. People today have to shit on people for some reason. It's easy for me to say let the haters be haters but its so much more as it directly impacts you making a living. I think the majority of us realize that you work very hard and it hurts that some will disparage your efforts. Just know that most love your videos and appreciate that you are willing to try something new. Thank you!
This is a cool channel. Appreciate it!
Joe Rogan has discussed at length about the minority vocal 1% in these comments. Actually not a true reflection of the other vast majority who watches, likes, and never comment.
His conclusion is to ignore comments.
I'm signing up and downloading your full video right now just for the support - hopefully it'll annoy your haters. Love your channel mate.
Hey Bobby, Subscriber and Patron for years. Your content and production value is top notch. The 99% loves your work. The 1% has, unfortunately, nothing better to do than hate.
Hey Viewers, Join me in pissing off the haters, even more, by purchasing "the video".
Keep your head up, Bobby! Don't apologize for living your life and doing what makes you happy. I'd love to be able to be in your shoes and sail around the world seeing all these beautiful places. I look forward to more of your content. Dylan Lowe.
Love watching this channel. Keep doing what you're doing. Showing beautiful places with beautiful people.
Love your videos. There are to many negative people in this world and they will always be unhappy. Keep up the great work.
Don't worry about the idiots. There will always be people that love to complain. Keep putting out great content!
Despite the negativity, I hope you full length video does well. I will try to find the time to watch it. No doubt it will be excellent!
