As for me personally I don't really watch MCSG Youtubers but as we all know one of our more popular youtubers has been banned. Ibeaturscore. Max. Kid who killed Hooahwee. I looked into his ban and I thought his ban was justifiable. If you didn't know, he was banned for saying to someone to die irl. Then after that he bypassed his ban resulting in a perma ban.

Obviously his fans would be upset leading to responses such as this.

This got me really thinking on what it means to be a youtuber. You have so many fans that follow you and would fight for you. You have so much influence and power in the community. You become a role model. Someone that people look up to and aspire to be like. So knowing this should we be more lenient to people who have supporters?
I believe no. Whatever the reason you started doing youtube, if you become big then you have a responsibility now. You have people who look up to you and look to you for opinions and fun. Knowing this, I believe that we in fact be more harsh on our youtubers as they are our role models for the main player base on MCSG. If you have allowed Ibeat with getting away with telling someone to Kill Themselves then bypassing his ban than his fans will believe that it would be all right to do the same thing. They would think, "If I'm really upset then it's alright to be rude to another player because Ibeat never got punished for it. If I get banned it's fine because I can just bypass with another account." Though it may seem absurd it has happened before in the past. When BajanCanadian was using better sprint, many other players started using Better Sprint as well as he never got punished until well... uh... he got banned. xD
Anyways that is my thoughts on this matter. Have a good day!
