Yammie Noob Fired Spite. The Worst Leadership I've Ever Seen.

[@olumarkfatungase7556]

If you compare viewing numbers, across the last month, between spite and yammie, you'll see that spites corner is crushing yams numbers.

[@MrDeepseadweller]

I agree with everything you say in this video. I've been checking the decline of Yammie Noob since he released the firing video. Socialblade shows the dramatic decline in viewership and revenue. I only wish I'd had access to the discord server to see what comments were being made there. Anway, Spite has landed on his feet and will do well. He is far more relatable and talented than YN. Josh has escaped and I'd say it's only a matter of time until Whitney leaves too. I saved a copy of the entire firing video before it was taken down.

[@MotoMedicine904]

Someone had reposted it but it was hit for copyright pretty quickly lol. YN of all people should know what goes on yhe internet can never really be deleted though.

[@nickq204]

First time watching, enjoyed the video and largely agree with your sentiments. I’ll keep checking out the channel! I started watching YN about the same time as when Spite showed up. I preferred his every man style of presentation and touched on more facets of riding than Yam. Also important, is that I do not miss the incessant turbo ‘Busa jokes.

[@Alexanderyhwong]

I also noticed Yammie’s videos have a lot less views than before. Would love to know how much he’s lost in revenue since that fiasco.

[@MotoMedicine904]

Social Blade will give you a general idea. His views and subs per month have dropped significantly. The range for revenue is pretty wide on Social Blades estimates but you can tell its not as much as it was. By the exact ammount...we won't know

[@Rudelifecoach]

That was a supreme douche move. Spite was a huge part of Yamm's success, and seemed to have more of a love for bikes.

[@twrcrew8852]

Thank you for your service. I put down 11 years in the Army through 6 enlisted ranks myself, wanted to be a lifer and stay 25-30+ years or until they've had enough of me. health and fate had other plans though and I wore my boots for the last time this past May. I feel very naive because I literally drank every ounce of coolaid Yammie was pouring during that video. The dude is a narcissist (as most higher profile channel runners tend to be) but it took me watching a review like this to see it for what it really was... just wow. good stuff. What kills me is that I've watched Yammie grow as a person as well (people want to keep bashing the kid who threw himself over a porsche, I don't believe in holding grudges to people who put in clear evidence of improving from situations like that). But human beings are known to human.. and anyone who gets big enough will always be susceptible to grow in ego. That is part of the tragedy, and now he's in a damned if do/don't situation, with any public reparations for spite looking like damage mitigation and leaving things as they lay looking like a cutthroat employer as you've described.

[@ADingoTookMyDasco]

Honestly, I think it panned out quite well for Spite in the end. His channel got over 50,000 new subscribers the day the video hit & another 14,000 the day after. Now that everything has settled down, he's got a good number of Patreon supporters, of which I am one, and his subscriber numbers are growing healthily enough that he should hit 100,000 by Christmas. He's also got support from a local motorcycle dealer for access to motorcycles for review & is picking up sponsors that are relevant to motorcycling. Yammie, on the other hand, didn't fair as well. Besides getting rid of Spite, Josh has also disappeared from the team list on the website, and the quality of the video output has taken an appreciable dive. He lost 10,000 subscribers on the day the video was released & flatlined for most of October. He only picked up another 10,000 subscribers on the 24th October. In fact, if you look at his subscriber growth in the detailed statistics tab on socialblade the channel subscriber growth looks very "interesting" for all of this year. If you look at the weekly subscribers gained graph from November 2019 to December 2021 the growth looks very organic. But, looking at 2022, it's a complete flatline broken by 13 spikes of exactly 10,000 new subscribers every few weeks. 🤔Make of that what you will, but there's another interesting "feature" in the weekly video views gained chart. For the week 30 March to April 6 2020 the channel reported -420,874 video views, that's negative 420,784 views. How does a view count go into negative? Did over 420,000 people have their memory of watching a Yammie Noob video erased & reported their memory erasure to KZbin? 🤔 To paraphrase the Bard, something is rotten in the state of Yammie Noob.

[@MotoMedicine904]

I believe the -420k is meant to represent that during that period his views were down 420k from his average.

Yammie noobs videos prior to Spite were an absolute joke, especially when he had this guy Jammie Jay on there. I despised him.

In some sense yam was threatened by his knowledge and intellect.

[@markschick3796]

I'm a Reagan era Marine Vet. It's nice to hear someone talking about honor and morals. I found the way Eric let Spite go, and the reasoning he gave, to be completely offensive. You have to take care of your people. Eric complaining about his role as the CEO of the company taking away from his true passion of being a content creator being offered as the justification for firing Spite seemed a little strange. The only way to remedy that would be to have someone else run the company for him. I don't know this to be a fact, but Eric strikes me as being kind of a control freak, so giving someone else the reigns to his multi-million dollar company so he can spend more time in front of the camera is unlikely. Growing his company will probably include growing the staff, so I'm not sure what the real motivation was for firing Spite. It may have just been ego. But, Spite is rolling. Things take time. I would expect that it won't be long before he branches out and starts reviewing more than just ADV bikes. One thing I'd really like to see is Whitney making an appearance on Spite's channel. I remember the first time Whitney stepped in front of the camera... people loved it. She's funny, she has valid opinions, and the rapport that she and Spite had during those two person reviews was excellent. But I'm on Team Spite. The annoying outtro's featuring Eric's not-so-subtle demands to watch more Yammie Noob wasn't hard to walk away from.

Not a bad take, pretty much identical to mine in most respects, even to the point of wishing Yammie the best for the future but knowing he made a critical mistake. I have been following the view count. Spite puts out four videos over two weeks and Yammie makes eighteen. The numbers are closing in on even. I remain subscribed to both but I am not interested in Moto GP so I don't even click on those videos, and Yam has 3 there with his lowest views in the last two weeks. Spite has one video a week with "A day in the saddle" that run for 25 minutes, have 3 ad breaks and his highest view counts. Strangely, Yammie just did a 25 minute review on a Moto Guzzi today. Yammie knows he fucked up.
