Dear @markiplier

I think I speak for most of us when I say...

We love you too, ya crazy fuck. This has been one hell of a journey for you, and it's been amazing to see how much you've grown over the years.

Also, I should be thanking you. Seeing your show when you were in Atlanta put me in a better mood then I had been in for a while. I laughed harder than I had in months, and I still show off video and pics that I kept on my phone from the show. (Hell, I'll probably wind up showing them to a few today, as I have a Thanksgiving thing I should probably start getting ready for...)

Thank you, Mark, for everything you have done. You have made many of my days just a little bit brighter, and I know that I'm far from the only one.

"I am so so excited, every day I'm excited for the future. Every day I'm excited for what's to come." This video couldn't come in the better time for me. I needed a reminder of why I started doing what I'm doing which is studying physiotherapy, and a reminder of why I'm doing it, which is to help people in need. My biggest dream is to make life easier for people who need it most and people who struggle. My dream is to help at least one person have a better life. And my dream is to forever have as much passion in my eyes while doing it as Mark does. Mark, thank you for being an incredible inspiration to me. If it wasn't for you, God knows what I would be doing right now.

Dear Markiplier

Hello, I guess (sorry I’m super unsure in all my aspects of life)

Well, I looked through your tag like 5 minutes ago, and I just want to say thanks because you have changed so much of my life. Other than helping me spiral down the path of video game reviews, you have made me smile and laugh in happiness at almost everything that you review in games

My first playthrough I watched on your channel was actually FNAF: Sister Location. At that time I was a huge fan of sister location and was trying to watch through all of the playthroughs of it when I came across your channel (perhaps not as interesting at everyone else but hey, “its a story”.) And I loved your playthrough of it, not just the cussing, or the jumpscares, but its probably the fact that you make me laugh so hard and be immersed into games that I hesitate to buy (ore like never buy because I’m somewhat broke so youtube is literally my life) and actuaaly your playthroughs have led me to recognise so much more people on youtube. The first one of which was actually @therealjacksepticeye and eventually @pewdie and everyone else (there’s this pic during the cringemas streams thatlooks just like a demented family photo which I absolutely adore) and its been so wonderful meeting you and seeing who people really are int eh rest of the world, and yeah. Your spontaniety had made me more open to the rest of the world and realise that there are people out there who are so alive and bright. (you guys are just so full of life you can drive me into my next incarnation)

But yeah (i hope this hasn’t been too cringy because i tend to be rather overrated at times) thank you and keep smiling everyday !!!! :)))))

(((P.S. Can you say hi to Darkiplier for me? I’d love to meet him someday (i wonder if i even can) thanks!)))

Dear Markiplier

This is an amazing idea. Thank the lord for @dogiplier am I right?! Hey Markimoo, You don't know me. Not many people do. My name is Mackenzie I'm 15 years old and I have been a fan of yours for I want to say 4 years and I have loved every minute. I do not have photographic memory like most people who write these do and i cannot remember the first video I watched of yours. It was probably drunk minecraft because I seriously love that series and have watched the space episode more times than I can count. That's besides the point. Anyway, I was fairly new to YouTube and I was looking at some videos to watch. I remember seeing the thumbnail for whatever video it was and saying to myself, "looks alright." So I watched it and I laughed so hard I cried. So I began watching others. Skip ahead a year and you started to play fnaf. I remember being scared shitless but I was obsessed. (It was actually what got me into art[i have an entire sketchbook with crap drawings of fnaf characters in it]) A little while later my life took a huge downhill spiral. My great aunt died of cancer, I was diagnosed with anxiety and was forced to see a therapist every so often (which made me more anxious), my grades fell down for a while, and all the stress made me get worse. I started to eat less and less until the only meal I would have was dinner and sometimes I wouldn't even eat it. I started to get very depressed and I had no idea what was wrong with me. For a while I just accepted that I was never going to get better. I considered suicide a few times and I'm not proud of it. Then I was at school and my friend came and showed me a video of yours. I was immediately drawn back in and I started watching all your series. Which also led me to watching jack. Youtube was my everyday routine after that. Jack, mark, bob, Felix, wade, etc. One day I decided. You know what? I'm going to eat some breakfast today. Low and behold a banana isn't much of a breakfast but it was the start to a better life. I began eating which brought down my anxiety by a mile and my grades went back up and my life was up again and I think watching all those people on YouTube be happy made me want to. All in all, I'm somewhat better now, I still don't eat breakfast as often as I should but I eat all lunch and a healthy dinner. My life is forever changed and I cannot thank you enough. You and all the other youtubers I watch have made me the happy happy girl I am today. Thank you @markiplier

Dear Markiplier

 Hi. My name is Mariah, I’ve only been a part of this community for about eight months now. I’m a pretty shy person, but I love learning from and watching people who are funny and bright and exuberant and happy and unashamed of being all of those things and more, even if weird is one of them. It really cheers me up to hear you laugh and to hear you cheer other people on, it’s really a positive part of my day. Your videos and pics of your dog (Who is actually an angel sent from heaven because how can a dog be so precious) always start my day off in a very positive way and that makes me so much happier starting off a day where I might normally feel angry or irritated with someone’s happy face. Your channel introduced me to some really great channels like Ethan, Bob and Jack who make my day sometimes! And through their communities I’ve made some really great friends and found people who keep me positive and laughing and thinking actively about my future and my life as a whole ( @nestorquik and @pattie-mae.) Thanks for always being a source of positive energy and laughter. I’ve also been getting more involved with charities that mean alot to me lately thanks to your raising awareness for all of these cool charities! So thanks for all of that too!!

Dear Markiplier

 I don’t know if there are enough words to express how much you’re changed my life. I’m not very good at expressing feelings with words but it’s worth a shot! :3

I haven’t been in the fandom since 2k I will admit this. I think I found your channel about three years ago, simply because I was interested in the game “Off” and found your play through of that. I was hooked from minute one, and watched it constantly. After some time, I was brought to your Octodad and Stanley Parable play throughs. I watched the Octodad series at least 15 times over, and I still crack up every time. I saw you playing FNAF, and my friend was really into it at the time, buuuut I was kinda really scared to watch it. I told my cousin, and they said they’d watch it with me. I was still very scared. But I made it through the series, and we moved onto FNAF 2. No surprise, I was even more scared. By FNAF 3 I was perfectly fine with the jump scares, and by FNAF 4 I had nightmares for a month BUT! That’s not the point.

Point is, you have helped me face my fears, not only in video games (and I will admit horror is still a bit scary to me, and I’ve learned to love that.) but in real life too. You’ve helped me stay strong, and you’ve inspired me to do so many things. 

I don’t know if this will make sense, but you made me more human. Sometimes I struggle to feel human. (if that makes any sense at all?) For example, I don’t laugh enough, I don’t cry over sad things enough, etc. You helped me realize that no matter what, I’m human and I make mistakes and I fall down. At the same token, I can achieve my goals and I can express myself as I am. You’ve helped me love to fail, just so I can get up and show people that I can do what I put my mind to. You helped me see what I want to do with my life, and how to take a step forward to achieve that. And you’ve helped me continue to do what I love. I’ve had so many times I’ve wanted to quit or give up, but I got up again, and I kept going, and you helped me do that. You can ask anyone I know, and they will tell you how much I care about you, and how I never shut up about you. 

I want to thank you for everything you’ve done. For everyone. I know you say that we’re your heroes, and you are just as equally our hero. So many people love and care about you, and would support you in a heartbeat. And we’re ready to prove it too. I was actually just thinking about it today, but the world would have been so much different if you were an engineer. I’m really glad you became a Youtuber instead. (I’m sure you would have been an awesome engineer though :3) Thank you for being you, and for growing and loving what you do, and for caring, and for being a silly goofball, and just absolutely everything. Thank you. We love you to the moon and beyond. 

*HUGGLES!!!!! :3*

(Thank you @dogiplier for this wonderful idea!! ^U^)

Dear Markiplier

(I've seen a bunch on @dogiplier blog and I wanted to make my own) When I first saw your videos I was a senior in high school. My choir teacher gave us a lot of off days and on those days I and a couple of friends would watch random youtube videos until we found your channel. The more we watched the more we stated to love the channel, one friend even said that she shipped you and I cause we had similar personalities. When you hit 10 million subs I decided that I had to make something for you so I painted my very first fanart of you. I posted it to tumblr and really didn't care how many notes it got or if you even saw it, I was just so proud of how it turned out. This started in my journey in wanted to become a professional artist. But things have been rocky, graduating high school and going into college has been difficult but you have always been there to make me smile. Now I have amazing friends in the community you've built and I want to do the same thing you've done for me, I want to inspire people, help them smile when is hard, and create a community. Thank you Mark, thank you so very much.
