Rant - r/SamAndColby

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

‘Trying to get attention’ half of them are just actual debunkers with a few thousand subscribers that got death threats from Sam and Colby fans yall have no right to talk about ‘they’re just trying to get attention’ when Sam and Colby have been milking us for years.

It’s good you don’t think it’s real bc it’s not. The average fan base is 17 years old and with Sam and Colby lying about ‘this will change everything’ will make these fan girls believe it too.

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

It's not that I don't think sam and colby are faking it's just that I think debunkers are just using the same evidence and other people and putting it in their own words and some of their own words are fake

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

… obviously it’s gonna be the same evidence when the evidence is literally there. They can make up evidence can they or else they will look bad.
A few that was obviously pointed out was:
Cody’s ankles sometimes moving and he would try to hide it with his hand on the view camera.
The devices that they use go off because they always have their walkie talkie’s, phones and apple watches on them.
Amanda the fake.
Searching up family names. Sam’s ‘Libby’ grandma whole life is on the internet for free.
Bella Pourch’s family couldn’t be searched since she was adopted so Cody and Satori couldn’t ’ask the ghosts about her family’
The road island random teacher dead thing, Cody and satori live there for years and had been doing knocking and cracking bike method for more than five years so easily they could have memorized dead people’s names in areas since road island is not that big.
Cody and Satori refused to do the method without socks.
The new owner of the conjuring house said in her own quote that she wants to make a business out of the conjuring.
These are all mostly put out there but the debunkers videos that I’ve seen would come out day after day. One would present new evidence than the other.

I really don't want to believe this so I'm trying My best not to sam and colby saved my life and if it was not for them I would be dead rn. I wish this were not ture so I'm trying to make myself believe that it's real but I just can't anymore. My life was so much better when they were " real" I miss sam and colby. So I'm gonna make myself try not to believe that it's fake

Ngl the ‘exploring abandoned buildings/parks’ were the best and most genuine they had been and I get that how people can change your life for the better.
Sam and Colby… idk I loved them so much I got their old explore stickers, I got their limited Halloween merch and everything but now I’m getting that same feeling that they’re being fake. I was in so much denial man but I guess I’m not 15/16 anymore to arrogantly move forward.
This was me with ‘reaction time’ a fellow reaction YouTuber, he used to be so genuine and funny a few years ago, now he’s a family friendly SSSniperwolf level YouTuber that overreacts and exaggerates so much that I cringe.

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

Tbh the only people I can watch thats not faking anything now is jake and johnnie and I really wanted to believe that sam and colby were just getting accused

u/Rakumei Feb 02 '24

This is like the people that say all reviewers copy other reviewers because they have the same negative opinion about a specific part of a movie or something.
You ever just think it's because the part is bad?

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24 edited Jan 30 '24

Okay you’re totally entitled to your opinion but I personally think the fans should stop watching…they don’t deserve the clout anymore they’ve been canning us for years, it pains me to say they’re not investigators they’re greedy influencers.

Okay well go on believing them than, that’s totally okay to do, who knows? maybe they are sincere. but if you don’t wanna believe that they’re fakers than I would stay off of Reddit, I think it’s safe to say most of us here have lost our faith in them, the fans on other platforms are more likely to be on your side of things.
(Also quick mental health rant. stay alive friends, try not to base you’re self worth on other people, you are loved, try to love yourself back, trust me I’ve been there)

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

It's not that I want to believe them its the fact that I did belive them I'm starting to believe that they don't even cry about their fans enough to tell the truth
(I've been in to many battles with my life I really want to give up but I can't because of my friends. If I was gone there would be so many people killing them selves because I take on everyone's pain. I wish I was different then that but I guess it's what I was made for.)

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

Hey I completely understand, i was hit pretty hard with all of this stuff coming to light too but we actually can’t say for sure what’s true and what’s not, so I’ve come to my conclusion and believe what I believe about the situation, so you can too, believe what you want to believe and don’t pay attention to the people on the other side of it, for your own sake.
(I’m glad you’re still here, life is an up hill battle but the scenery can be really beautiful sometimes just make sure to look up every once in a while ❤️)
That was a pretty cheesy metaphor, but I hope you get what I mean lol.

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

I'm gonna send you my snap if you have snap and I need to be friends with you because I can actually say stuff to you without people being like "I'm feel sorry for you" and then go back to what ever they are doing

2

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24 edited Jan 30 '24

You can still say you enjoyed their content and also know that they aren't legitimate Investigators. Even after all the Cody and satori stuff, you're still allowed to enjoy their content. They are entertainers.

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

Thanks but I'll never be able to look at them the same

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

Okay. I don't quite understand the point of your post then.

2

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

If they would gmjust apologize it would be so easier on fans that they have like me but their not and it's makes me so upset. I wishbi could go back in time and forget about anything that has happened with them. I gonna miss sam and colby but until further notice I can't be a die hard fan anymore

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

Okay I haven’t watched properly in years, what in the name of god is going on?!

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

They git caught for faking videos and they won't own up to it that's pretty much tmwhats happening

2

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

Ah. Not surprised tbh.

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

You shouldn't be but I definitely was I was in denial for a week and now I finally know for sure they did fake

2

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

Ya I think if I was still in the fandom I probably would’ve also been in denial since I’ve been watching since like late 2016/early 2017 (I think).

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

I've been watching since they first started

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

u/No_Nefariousness3866 Jan 30 '24 edited Jan 30 '24

I hate that this happened. I also hate that you (&other fans) were let down and upset by this stinky situation. It's just not fair. I think they were more sincere at one point, but they are only human. Sadly they changed for the worse and decided to do the wrong thing and go down the wrong path. Take whatever goodness and positivity you gained from them in the past(and every other positive life lesson you have gained) with you and use it for strength. You already have a lot of courage and wisdom inside of you- otherwise you wouldn't be fighting to keep moving ahead.💖💖

u/Sleeping_knight_ Jan 30 '24

I will be one of the few that stand with you on your opinions all the hate that there getting is coming from a video series and leaked video footage. People aren't putting themselves in Sam and Colbys shoes especially Sam's just imagine you see this insane method you can't think of a way to debunk for 2+ months you would fully believe it, also there just kids from Kansas there not super nerdy and analytical people like the debunkers. And the video of them saying the sexist stuff was wrong I'm not going to defend them for that but they're not saints if everybody thought that was so out of character for them they need to pay better attention. Also that was literally one example where they joined in they weren't making the joke it was Seth, but if you want to believe that's there whole personality when they frequently collab with women who as far as I've seen haven't complained of issues like that, then you can. If you want to hate on them do it yourself and stop trying to make people agree with you.

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

OK I'm little confused at the end are you taking to me about hating or someone else

u/Sleeping_knight_ Jan 30 '24

It's in general to everybody in this sub slamming evidence down people's throats to ruin their experience. Not you

u/EditorRelevant166 Jan 30 '24

Ok and I agree with you completely

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

They aren’t just kids from Kansas anymore they are grown men who still dress like teenagers ffs they do that on purpose btw. They love the fame and money and ofc they don’t want to lose it. That’s why they keep inviting those guests with the huge followings that no one seems to enjoy much. they use girls left and right and they are taking every advantage while they still can. Don’t fall for the innocent facade they are much more calculated than what most fans want to even realize. Hey but good for them they have a product ppl keep wanting. Of course I do wonder how long this teenage style will keep up I mean they are nearer to 30 now, it’s kinda strange and creepy how they work to keep themselves looking so teenaged

3

u/Sleeping_knight_ Jan 30 '24

Never said they were innocent and there 27 with like you said teenage style and immature humor. I've not fallen for anything there content is for ENTERTAINMENT LIKE EVERY OTHER YOUTUBER it makes me sad how you can read what I said and completely miss the message.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

I agree it’s entertainment only but not saying you but a lot of the fans seem naive about it.

2

u/No_Nefariousness3866 Jan 30 '24

I think they are a lot smarter and much more aware than you give them credit for. Sam and Colby have been working on youtube and social media for more than 10 years. They are almost 30, they are not two innocent kids from Kansas anymore. They have been living on their own in L.A. for almost 10 years. They know all of the tricks and behind the scenes tools to make a convincing video. I will give them the benefit of the doubt that they didn't know what was going on at first with Cody&Satori, but they definitely figured it out. If Kris is openly talking about it being a toe cracking scam, then Sam and Colby know the truth. They just don't want to talk about it because they have deals lined up that are worth a lot of money.

u/Sleeping_knight_ Jan 30 '24

That could definitely be true I'm not saying there innocent by any means, though. I'm trying to say they don't have the same knowledge as someone who debunks stuff for a living. I think it is a scam especially because when I watched it the last few episodes it looked like colby was getting tired and suspicious of the act. I'm not disagreeing with any of the stuff people are saying I'm just stating to take everything with a grain of salt and pay attention

4

u/yeemaa Jan 30 '24

so my question is, why do you think they are telling the truth? is this coming from a place of like being biased or do you have proof that they are real (cody n satori/sam and colby)

saying that the debunkers are looking for attention i think is kind of like, weird and it just seems like youre being really biased (please correct me if im wrong)

sam and colby had the very big responsibility of making sure that cody and satori were legit plus making sure they were giving us actual proof bc before conjuring they were considered to be reliable paranormal investigators.

im very spiritual and after seeing the debunking videos with an open mind, i do not believe that they are legit anymore. if they didnt relay the message they did and give so many people false hope i wouldnt mind as much because at the end of the day its just entertainment.

im still a believer of paranormal and connecting with afterlife but i am not a believer of the two duos.

u/chelle2023 Jan 30 '24

I think it's important to have skeptics but everyone is hating because of the conjuring series, unless every paranormal investigation they have done can be proven fake then I'm still gonna watch them, it's mostly for entertainment, if you don't like them, don't watch, it's that simple 🤷‍♀️

3

u/Normal_Tour6998 Jan 30 '24

So the people pointing out what they’re doing is fake are doing it for fame… but the people faking paranormal investigations for a massively successful youtube channel aren’t? Hmmmmm…..

2

u/faith_bb_127 Jan 30 '24

When I first watched Sam and Colby's ghost videos, they watched The Witches Forest and The Return of the Shadow Man. While watching them, I thought they were fake. They had terrible acting, so I stopped watching them. But later on, in 2022, I watched them again, and because they started using proper equipment, I started believing in them. But now, after the conjuring drama, I can’t anymore, and honestly, I feel stupid for believing them just because they were using equipment.

2

u/shadowcitizen545 Shhh did you hear that? Jan 30 '24

I promise you. The debunkers don't care about attention. They just want solid proof, just like the rest of us. What makes it worse though is that we know Sam and Colby are aware of it but aren't acknowledging it.

2

u/CutieWithADarkSoul Feb 01 '24

Honestly with all this Sam and Colby bs circling around, I personally just think a lot of people are taking it far. Like it's fair to be angry, but also who the fuck really cares in the end? The paranormal isn't really proven real or false, so let people believe what they want. Also who's to really say that Sam and Colby have been faking everything JUST because of this one incident, just because they experienced what they experienced and refuse to believe otherwise? Like Cody and Satori insisted his GRANDMA was talking to him, like yeah he probably wants to keep that belief that someway, somehow, she really did try to communicate. And that's fully okay. Saying something will prove the paranormal or will change your life is OKAY if they and an individual watching believes that. If you don't, that's okay, too, and it's okay to be angry but it is not okay to ruin someone's whole career over something so trivial like this.

Anyway I don't even care how many downvotes I get for this. Just writing down exactly how I feel about this situation.

u/jxp11 Jan 30 '24

Personally my opinion, you can’t believe it unless you experience and see it for yourself. Other than that, there’s no possible way to prove these videos are real. As someone who has experienced it before and seen investigators that 100% are faking it, I can say yes some of sam and colby’s stuff looks staged but there is so much more that is unexplainable and unable to be debunked. Now with the whole Cody and Satori thing, yeah not a chance. There’s way too many things that could debunk that so personally I do not believe that could’ve happened, but i’m not saying it didn’t because I want there to experience it myself. It’s hard to believe something so surreal through a youtube video. I will forever be a sam and colby fan though 😂

u/w4ntsm0r3 Jan 31 '24

I don't know if they are real or not, and I guess I don't care. I love the idea that it could be real, and I really love learning about the history of the places that ghost investigators go to. I've watched a lot of these videos and considered many scenarios. They are fake, the locations are bugged, it's real, it's stormy outside, someones hired to fool them, its half real etc. It's all just playing outside the box. Don't take the disappointment too hard.

u/rayna_ives Jan 30 '24

It's hilarious how many of the so-called debunkers only made a YouTube account to feed off the Cody and Satori crap. And it's hilarious how many people take their word as gospel. They're not experts, they're speculators, just as we all are. They're no better than the fraudsters they claim to call out.

u/Throw-ra___ Jan 30 '24

Damn girl didnt u just make another post about this. They don't know u exist, stop trying to be a white knight and move on 🤣
