Hi guys, I want to address some things about my recent video again in hopes of remedying some of this situation. If you were not aware already: The story of the Consciousness channel is FICTIONAL and all of the characters inside of it are completely made up. It is very important to me that you all know that no one is actually in danger, it was simply meant to be a unique take on the ARG concept using YouTube live streams as the medium. I made two mistakes with this video, the first was not having any third party watch my video for feedback prior to posting. When I posted the video I genuinely was worried people would find it cringy at times or a bit hard to believe that a child would somehow have access to a streaming software. Since I create all of the story and background myself I forget how it can look from a third party perspective who has no knowledge of the story. My second mistake was not including a disclaimer inside the video itself, and while I do not plan on touching on such real-world issues as strongly in the future I will be making sure to include disclaimers in all of my videos going forward. This was my first video going full-on into the world of unfiction and my first to have so much success and attention on it. While I am so grateful for the success and the positive comments under that video, I now am responsible for a lot more people who watch my videos and the feelings/actions that the video may incite. Once again thank you all for your support and I hope to do better both in the quality of my content as well as the safety of it in the videos to come.
