Youtubers Invade EMC

On june 15th 2 big youtubers named Pokeplayz and Drew durnil uploaded videos on emc and both of these youtubers have over 500k subs, they are the biggest youtubers to upload since ibxtoycat in march. Poke was first seen on emc on may 19th and lived in many different towns and made his video about him going to the north pole https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRmZIFKnMY0&t=388s He also has 900k subs and the video got over 211,000k views.
Drew was first spotted on june 10th after spawning in and was been chased and then killed on his first day he made his video about that experience https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KkztlVwoGo This video got over 90k views and he has 600k subscribers.
What this means for emc: So on june 15th after these youtubers uploaded the queue started getting longer and players without priority were having to wait longer and longer and it made these people mad and after 24 hours the queue peaked at 180 people and queue was the biggest its been in 4 months and the queue was normally 40 people long and after midnight est it was normally less than 5 but that day it was 40+ and the players that joined then had to wait over 50 minutes in the queue when normally they would wait 5-10 minutes and the next day the queue peaked at 120 and the next day it peaked at 100 and also it bringed in some very toxic people into the server and some very young but the good side is that mayor’s have more people to recruit for free in there towns and they could grow fast but some mayors didn't want that.
Will it happen again and how many times it has already happened: So drew durnil will probably not come back as he had a pretty bad experience and pokeplayz has become an active user and will definitely upload again and if he uploads again in the near future it will just make the situation worse and if he were to make a emc series on his channel the server will be the worst it's ever been queue wise but good for mayors looking for residents but a few other youtubers with over 500k subscribers have also uploaded on emc the most notable are ibxtoycat and fuzelll both who have over 1 million subscribers ibxtoycat has uploaded 3 videos on emc and they have all resulted in the queue exceeding 100 while fuzeiii has done a lot of videos as part of his emc series he did there could be bigger youtubers in the future so be prepared
