      Cool do u really think you are the only one getting this recommended? Of course other people also get this recommended that’s why this video has so many views. Saying “no one searched for this video and we still found it” is like saying “fun fact : you probably ate today” there are a lot of people who will relate to this but also some that don’t. The ones who don’t just keep scrolling while the others like this comment that you probably copy pasted. This way your Fortnite channel grows without you even trying because you are verified. And the people liking this comment annoy me even more because they actually think this was funny or they liked it because you are verified. Tip : If you really want to grow an channel with an community that isn’t made of inactive subs and 9 year olds then try to gain your subs legitimate. Have a great day.
