Dude some UU fans genuinely make me upset. The protags are not machines. They have lives.
Flame and Spoke should not have to apologize for not posting for a long time. Spoke shouldn't have to APOLOGIZE for being SICK and not uploading. Flame shouldn't have to apologize for not posting because he has stuff going on irl.
Wemmbu didn't upload for what? A month? And people started complaining that he was taking too long to post. People were commenting on the fact that Flame posted twice before he did. They started acting like they were never going to get a post again when a month is extremely reasonable for the production quality of his videos. Not to mention, a lot of creators take a month or two to post videos. Filming takes a long time and editing takes a long time. The protags filming sessions are likely HOURS long, and that is a lot of cutting and editing you have to do after.
And it's not just Wemmbu.
Every. Single. Protag.
Every single protag gets comments or videos made about them saying they're taking too long to post. They do not OWE you posts.
"Oh but the fandom is going to die out! They need to post or they'll lose their fans"
GENUINELY SHUT UP.
The fact they still post after EVERYTHING the fandom has done says something.
They clearly enjoy making the content, but having a bunch of little voices constantly saying they're taking too long? It makes you hate what you're doing.
Content takes time. If you want to have the same high quality videos from the protags, you NEED to be patient.
TLDR; Be patient with the protags. They don't owe you an apology for not posting. They don't owe you posts. Content takes time.
Shout out to all the people agreeing with this post I made.
I'm glad I'm not the only one annoyed by this. It definitely is an issue within other fandoms, but I haven't seen it so prominent before I got into Unstable. I cannot scroll on any social media platform without seeing at least one person complaining about the upload schedules, and it's frustrating. I know how long it takes to make content like that, and the fact they can do it in a month for us is impressive in itself. They deserve nothing but respect from the community, and the fact that people have the audacity to complain makes me so upset.
I am a very strong advocate for creators and just the internet in general because I want to be a creator some day. The internet space needs to be addressed more, especially after fandom etiquette essentially died after covid.
Creators, no matter how big or how small, get hate almost every single day from multiple people. Hate, even if it's a one off comment, can REALLY affect someone. Creators are under so much pressure in recent years, and all eyes are constantly on them from fans, news, etc.
Please be patient with creators. Treat them with respect. They're human just like the rest of us and deserve nothing but respect for what they do.
Shoutout the Unstable Universe creators. You deserve so much more respect and care. More you currently get. Please take your time with content. We will wait as long as it takes <33
