- Discord did the funny with their "Discord Loot Boxes are here" video because they managed to make a TH-cam viewbot and the video gained over a billion views.
But, how did Discord break TH-cam records? Was this part of their April Fools plan?

Wow they just reset the video's views just like that. TH-cam giveth and TH-cam taketh.
Rip Discord being better than BTS. I guess I will accept my death via kpop stans with pride.
noo
hey daddy ~
Bummer I enjoy watching TH-cam lose money
noooo
Welp goodluck with that
Nah. Every 5th-6th person on Earth is just very excited about being able to become a certified clown on Discord.
Can confirm as a person on Earth.
@@Scratchfan321 can confirm as someone who's childhood dream was to become a certified clown on discord
I confirm as a Discord Clown
Yes, we need achievements no matter what it is.

Crazy how a population that is the size of China is so excited by lootboxes.
I’m only realizing now that I completely missed Discord’s april fools joke… I just thought they were really going down the gutter when I saw loot boxes.
Yes. It was just an April Fool's joke.
They were bots. Real views of just under 2.9M.
@@helenababikova8806 did you not watch the video? those aren't botted views, but from the video autoplaying when you launch discord
Wouldn’t be the first time they’ve tested a feature they intend to add by pretending it’s limited time
I'm more surprised that it *was* a joke with how discord is going tbh
It wasn't bots- did you watch the video @@helenababikova8806

It was just an April Fool's joke.
They were bots. Real views of just under 2.9M.
They're gonna make the most viewed video of all of TH-cam history 💀
@@helenababikova8806 not bots
@@helenababikova8806yea. That video got 3m+, and this makes me think that they still use some sort of tactic to get more money.
Bear in mind, the viewcount number is probably not even affected by people outside of the U.S., since Europeans, for example, at least the ones in my circle, did not get the Loot Box pop-up or associated setting for it. The viewcount is already insane, but it could have been even more so.
i got the popup (bri'ish moment)
well I'm actually in the EU and i got it :]
@@ForgeVex2 Pretty sure lootboxes weren't allowed in Belgium but still are in the Netherlands, unless I completely missed this news.
Me (German) did get IT. Just for the fun Part, i also tried to get every Item just to feel Like a Clown to the Devs
I think the main reason for this is that the popup only showed if you opened discord after the update happened. So like any normal deranged individual, if you opened discord in the morning and then didn't close it until you went to sleep, you never got it
I’m hoping you see this ntts but in a game called geometry dash, the vanity link for the developers server has been stolen and a ton of bot accounts have been commenting on community levels plastering their invite link and pretending to be e-girls or famous players coming back, their comments are always purposefully misspell the link for some reason, if you type the link correctly it takes you to some weird e-girl hangout scam server, if you’re interested, I want to see what they are doing in their sever but I’m to scared to join it, please take a look at what’s going on as it’s a big promblem in the games community. That message too way to long to type 💀
yes ntts pls expose this
vanity robtopgames
YES I HAVE PEOPLE WHO AGREE WITH ME MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Nah, geometry dash is far overrated, not worth exposing lol
🚨yapper alert🚨
The fact I only now realized this was Discord's April Fools joke says quite a lot about Discord's reputation
Nah, it says something about your brain capacity

they legit just removed all the views from the video
NOOOOOOO
Rip money for discord 😭😭😭
They deleted bot views and over limit views. Please read the YT rules. They have a view limit for 1 account per 1 day. Everything above the limit will be deleted from the total number of views.
Thanks

As annoying as Discord can be sometimes, it's honestly such a power move to beat BTS as an April Fool's joke.
Yes, it was an April Fool's joke. They were robots. Actual views are less than 2.9M. So Discord still have some work to do to beat BTS with this childish nonsense.
@@helenababikova8806They did it on accident tho,
bts karma is real
Robots? Did you even watch the video?@@helenababikova8806
@@helenababikova8806 They were actual users, just unknowningly watching the video looped and muted in the background. I'm sorry but being a BTS fan doesn't require you to trawl through comments on this video and reply to every single one of them. You can simply just, enjoy the music.

@@RoyBlox This sort of exploit is costing TH-cam money. Situations between individuals don't and you know what companies care about the most? Money, so if it doesn't hurt them where it matters, they won't care.

Why did he do this it's giving me flashbacks of matpat running the game theorists channel
I am so sick of Discords popups outside of the patch notes that cover elements, that I reflexivly close out of them without even registering that it was there. for the two minutes of the video I was wondering what you were talking about. Then when you showed what the popup was with the "X Didn't ask" I realized, I remember that silly little didnt ask button, because I definantly didnt ask and didnt give a shit about whatever stupid thing they chose to block the chat area with
Honestly, the polls feature is a nice idea in concept. I frequent a number of servers for games or other media projects that are in active development, and they will often post announcements for new potential features and stuff. Having a poll would be way more streamlined compared to the usual method of using emoji reactions to gauge interest, since then you'll have more control and readability over the answers. I do agree that having it be accessible to everyone does make it potentially bothersome - a simple solution would be to allow server admins to toggle polls for members with specific roles, or limit them to specific server channels.
fyi, TH-cam removed all of the views from the looping and now it only has 2.8M views
edit: ty for all the likes this is the most likes ive ever gotten on any comment
tbf discord did nothing wrong, is was from youtube end not being able to proper count views
@@AEGISAOEthe views were botted and replayed how is that TH-cam’s fault
@@AEGISAOETH-cam just counted view every time the video played, that's how views work
It's discord's fault for making it loop in the background
@@puddle_hanit wasnt botted. It was playing in the background
@@puddle_han it wasnt botted, watch the video bro 💀
Found your videos 3 times, always entertaining until the end. Subscribed!
Today, on may 11th, clown frame was removed. Rip the clown gang, circus will live in our hearts
"the shell from sonic the hedgehog" lol it was a mario blue shell lmao
is joke
@@Psyche_TH sure
Wait, there's an official gtaVI trailer??
The decoration stays forever
I still have it on 10/4/24
Linking Amazon would also let you share your Amazon Wishlist, something that uh, only those who are fans are really excited for.
4:17 bro DID NOT say that's the shell from sonic 😭😭
Dr Eggmans pet turtle
@@tachyontwo I think that shell is a reference to Mario, the shoes might be a reference to Sonic
@@piberaroo Dr Eggmans turtle was one of the key characters though?? They use its shell in everything
Polls should be included in server role permissions. Good idea just unfinished
Just like most features nowadays
8:39 they could just put a button to hide the poll or maybe the poll is collapsed by default and expands when you click on it
I never even got this popup in my discord. A bunch of my friends were talking about it and I had no idea
To be fair, they really need to add a “Send Polls” feature to Discord servers. It would be better.
9:37 I love how in ntts recomendation is stream of some dude playing brawl stars
Daddy bentimm1 🤫
No text to speech
THANK YOU FOR EVERY VIDEO IT HELPS ME SO MUCH just thank you so much
This guy started explaining Discord theories before GTA6🔥
bek is playing ultrakill at 1:22
I have nothing else to say
Inventory sounds are fun
8:30 Worth noting that they did add a "Create poll" permission in yesterday's update.
“This is just a theory, a game theory!” Got me dying so hard lol. 😂
yea if i ever make a super popular social media like discord im gonna also add a video that loops forever making me absolutely rich
why would u add a video? why not add everyday 10 videos. And allow users to send their videos. This way, your channel can't get banned. Also, you charge them for views
@@AEGISAOE best business decision
at 7:28 Bro Opened up Hazbin Hotel Page instead of The Home page of Amazon Prime and thought we wouldn't notice (I love those details).
Hazbin hotel is an amazon prime show... he opened amazon prime... that isnt the homepage of Vivziepop...
Great to see that I'm not the only one excited to gamble
i somehow NEVER even heard about this video yet.
2:35 THAT IS ME!!!! I got in a NTTS video!
Congrats
2:11 only 150mil? I thought it was more tbh
Seems like youtube did something about it because it went from 1.4bil, to 2.9mil… interesting.
The "this is just a theory, a ga-" hit hard.. still recovering from matpats retirement
A naked man fears no pickpocket.
I like the lootboxes that they added. I feel like that was the best update they have done for a while..
2:28 It's 2,9 Billion views now...
No, that says million..

It now has 2.8 mil views 😭 nooo
the clown frame was so worth it
Need them to roll out polls already so I can run a smash-or-pass for our server's bots
Buying gifts for your ekitten off their amazon wishlist has never been easier with the new integration
Discord casually DDOSing TH-cam for shits and giggles.
7:30 BRO😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
2:19 the discord ping censor sound caught me off guard
The slice with Gunna writing hit hard
The clown decoration is limited as well it sayd that at 4:31 in the pop-up 😢
wow he didn't literally say it the second after the time you mentioned
You kinda sound like the guy who has a massive rant after his windows keeps restarting every 12 minutes and 58 seconds
that reminds me of that clip where the chipmunk simon waffles about the uncancelable windows update pop ups while he was in middle of rendering smth
13 minutes since release nice
I was waiting for that video :D
9 seconds 0 views ntts fell off
real. hurry up ntts

Balls but true

Idk what to reply here tbh
They made more money off ad revenue then they would’ve if they had actually added lootboxes
you will be surprised how many still don't use discord. This BREAKING NEWS 1B views in less than 24 hours, reached many non discord users

If this gets 10 likes I will buy a dog
No you won’t.
when the event just came out and I opened discord, I speedrun it and got the clown frame in 15 lootboxes XD
"they, got an Amazon account, can't talk to them about unions"
goddamn, that escalated quickly! xD
sir you fell for an April fools joke by TH-cam and discord XD, it didn't hit 1.4b views chill out
Edit: I'm one of those degenerates that comment before watching the video
8 seconds ago and no views ? dead channel.
When I opened Discord and saw these I actually thought it was real

It's a shame with the introduction of polls that you won't see those react to vote announcements anymore ☹️
