I mean, I do not see the big deal with PivotmasterDX, All Of his movements were stiff. and people on youtube are saying i luv u!!!!! and stuff like that. And obviously, They get inspiration. The only thing that came close to stick figures on crack is retarted sticks. Just like stick figures on crack, except more random and less funny. So now you probably get the retarted point of people copying stick figures on crack.
They liked him because he made them laugh. That's the reason he had so many subs. you want subs, you be funny. you want rank, be as serious as possible. it's sad, but true that funny animators get more subs. The only reason I post them on youtube is to reach a greater audience. If I didn't have a youtube account, I wouldv'e never found out about [Insert name of site I got banned from unreasonably] and never seen zed's homepage on his profile, and come here. Youtube is also one of the fastest ways to gain popularity if you make funny animations. Youtube has a delete post option for your vids, so if you don't like a comment, you can delete it. They don't seem to care about rank, so they'll like you if you're funny. If you're a truly good animator, you'll post your anims on a forum, but if you're feeling like not enough people are seeing your animations, Youtube is one of the best choices.
You can also add sound, and embed it onto a forum. Youtube is one of the most used sites for videos, therefore, posting it there is actually a different way of reaching new fans. It is a site you can't ever be permanently banned from, either, so if you get banned unreasonably, you can go back on.
Youtube is more than just a noob site to post random noob spam. You have to admit that at least SOME of what I just typed is true.
